1 Recreational Vehicle Lpg Tank Valve/gauge problem of the 2000 Ford Contour

Failure Date: 11/15/2005

I have a 2000 Ford Contour svt with dashboard curl. The dashboard is deformed above the gauge pod in front of the driver. If it continues, it could begin to somewhat block the driver's view. I put in today's date for the incident simply because I have no idea when the curl started. It was like that when I bought the car a couple years ago and has progressed to where it is today.
