It is your responsibility to make sure that all of the scheduled
maintenance is performed and that the materials used meet Ford
engineering specifications. Failure to perform scheduled
maintenance as specified in the Owner’s Manual will invalidate
warranty coverage on parts affected by the lack of maintenance.
Make sure that receipts for completed maintenance work are
retained with the vehicle.
Your Ford or Lincoln dealership, or Ford or Lincoln Quality Care
Service Center, has factory-trained technicians who can perform
the required maintenance using genuine Ford parts. The
dealership looks forward to meeting your every service need to
maximize your satisfaction with your vehicle.
WHO PAYS FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS?
You will not be charged for repairs covered by any applicable
warranty during the stated coverage periods, unless specifically
stated elsewhere in this guide.
Some states have mandated alternate time coverage periods for
parts of your vehicle (e.g. seatbelts).
Some states and/or local governments may require a tax on a
portion of warranty repairs. Where applicable law allows, the tax
must be paid by you, the owner of the vehicle.
During the Bumper to Bumper Warranty period, dealers may
receive instructions to provide no-cost, service-type
improvements - not originally included in your Owner’s Manual -
intended to increase your overall satisfaction with your vehicle.
Sometimes Ford may offer a special adjustment program to pay
all or part of the cost of certain repairs beyond the terms of the
applicable warranty. Check with your dealer or call
1-800-392-3673 to learn whether any adjustment program is
applicable to your vehicle. Please have your vehicle identification
number available.3
