IF YOU NEED CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE
Your Ford Motor Company dealer is available to assist you with
all your automotive needs. Please follow the procedures outlined
on the front page of this booklet.
In addition, if you are an eligible U.S. owner, you may use - at no
cost - the services of the BBB AUTO LINE program. For details,
see Better Business Bureau (BBB) AUTO LINE program, page 44
or call 1-800-955-5100.
KNOW WHEN YOUR WARRANTY BEGINS
YourWarranty Start Date is the day you take delivery of your
new vehicle or the day it is first put into service (for example, as a
dealer demonstrator), whichever occurs first.
CHECK YOUR VEHICLE
We try to check vehicles carefully at the assembly plant and the
dealership, and we usually correct any damage to paint, sheet
metal, upholstery, or other appearance items. But occasionally
something may slip past us, and a customer may find that a
vehicle was damaged before he or she took delivery. If you see
any damage when you receive your vehicle, notify your dealership
within one week.
MAINTAIN YOUR VEHICLE PROPERLY
Your glove compartment contains an Owner’s Manualwhich
indicates the scheduled maintenance required for your vehicle.
Proper maintenance guards against major repair expenses
resulting from neglect or inadequate maintenance, may help
increase the value you receive when you sell or trade your vehicle,
and is important in allowing your vehicle to comply with
applicable emissions standards.
2

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
