Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Ever since we bought this vehicle (1999 ford contour) last august from gsa it has squealed when the brakes are applied. it had only almost 9k on it at that time. now with near 20k it squeals like metal and vibrates when the brakes are applied. mostly at around less than 40 mph that i have really noticed. the tires seem to be wearing unevenly, too after 2 alignments. seems to be fine other than that now that the electrical problem that was recalled was fixed.
