Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On 98 ford contours both of the headlights form condensation on the inside and then become pitted. this greatly reduces the visibility at night and during stormy weather. we have changed the bulbs but not the entire headlight assembly. when we went to look for a set of headlights we discovered that all the used sets have the exact same problem. the lights need to be replaced and this problem is occurring on all ford contours and its mercury counterpart. *nm
