My '95 Contour GL Duratec at 68K miles is still within the wiring harness recall coverage time period: I bought it new, as an end-of-year leftover (the '96 models were already out), so my original warranty start date is still less than 10 years ago.
Why so few miles? It spent some time as my wife's daily driver - until the 3rd kid pushed us to get a minivan. Then it sat a lot while I used my Mustang as a daily driver.
This is also why I've delayed getting the harness checked by the dealer: Most of my Contour's miles have been in wintertime or rainy weather (the Mustang is simply more fun when it's sunny out), so the car hasn't spent much time with the high underhood temperatures that accelerate harness problems.
However, I've recently noticed a few wires with cracked insulation. Soon it will be time to put all of the documentation together - and take lots of pictures - to make sure the dealer doesn't try to fight me on this one. I'm pleased to hear someone else has had a good experience with dealer support on this issue, even on a car near the end of the wiring harness warranty program.
