PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE RISING
COST OF VEHICLE REPAIRS WITH A
LINCOLN EXTENDED SERVICE PLAN.
SERVICE PLANS (U.S. Only)
Lincoln owners have discovered the powerful
protection of Lincoln Extended Service Plan.
It is the only extended service plan backed
by Lincoln Motor Company, and provides
peace of mind protection beyond the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage.
Lincoln ESP Can Quickly Pay for Itself
One service bill – the cost of parts and labor
– can easily exceed the price of your Lincoln
Extended Service Plan. With Lincoln ESP,
you minimize your risk for unexpected repair
bills and rising repair costs.

There are four Extended Service Plans with
different levels of coverage. Ask your
authorized dealer for details.

PremiumCARE - Our most comprehensive
coverage. With over 1000 covered
components, this plan is so complete that

the U.S. and Canada. It is the only extended
service plan authorized and backed by
