Using the time approximation method we obtain the existence of a weak solution for the dynamic contact problem with damping and a non-convex stored elastic energy function. On the contact boundary we assume the normal compliance law and the generalization of the Coulomb friction law which allows for non-monotone dependence of the friction force on the tangential velocity. The existence result is accompanied by two numerical examples, one of them showing lack of uniqueness for the numerical solution.
