other charges. If so, you should present your paid invoice
detailing the nature of the charges to any Ford Motor Company
dealership for refund consideration. When making warranty
repairs on your vehicle, the dealer will use Ford or Motorcraft
parts or remanufactured or other parts that are authorized by
Ford. In certain instances, Ford may authorize repairs at other
than Ford dealer facilities. Tire replacements under warranty will
be made with the same brand and model as originally equipped
with the vehicle unless the same brand and model is no longer
available, in which case a tire of the same brand, size, load, speed
and tread type will be used. In some circumstances, Ford may
authorize another brand and/or model to substitute for the
original brand and model, even if still available.
Normal tire wear or damage is not reimbursable. See page 17 for
details of what is not covered.
