peace of mind protection beyond the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage.
Up to 500+ Covered Vehicle
Components
There are four, new-vehicle Extended
Service Plans with different levels of
coverage. Ask your dealer for details.
1. PremiumCare - Our mostcomprehensive coverage. With over

Company. That means you get:

Rental Car Reimbursement
If your vehicle is kept overnight for covered
repairs, you are eligible for rental car
coverage, including Bumper-to-Bumper
warranty repairs, or manufacturer ’s recalls. Transferable Coverage
If you sell your vehicle before your Ford
Extended Service Plan coverage expires,
you can transfer any remaining coverage
to the new owner. Whenever you’re ready
to sell your car, prospective buyers may

vehicle. Ford Extended Service Plan may

Ford Extended Service Plan Service
Contract. With a Ford Extend Service Plan,
you minimize your risk for unexpected
repair bills and rising repair costs.
Avoid the Rising Cost of Properly
Maintaining Your Vehicle!

Premium Maintenance Plan that covers
