service indicator FORD F-350 2022 Warranty Guide

7. Additional information about your emissions warrantycoverage, under Federal and California requirements
HOW DO I GET WARRANTY SERVICE?
To get service under your emissions warranties, take your vehicle
to any Ford Motor Company dealer as soon as possible after
illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Light or it has failed an
EPA-approved test or a California Smog Check inspection. Be
sure to show the dealer the document that says your vehicle has
failed the test.
Your dealer will determine whether the repair is covered by the
warranty. If the dealer has a question about Emissions
Performance Warranty coverage, it will forward the question to
Ford Motor Company, which must make a final decision within 30
days after you bring your vehicle in for repair. (The decision will
be made within a shorter time if state, local, or federal law
requires you to have the vehicle repaired more quickly in order to
avoid additional penalties.) The deadline for a determination
about Emissions Performance Warranty Coverage does not need
to be met if you request a delay, agree to a delay in writing, or if
the delay is caused by an event for which neither Ford nor your
dealer is responsible. If a question about Emissions Performance
Warranty coverage is referred to Ford Motor Company, you will be
notified by Ford Motor Company in writing if your claim for
warranty coverage is denied. The notice will explain the basis for
denying your claim. If you fail to receive this notice within a timely
manner, as determined above, Ford will perform the warranty
repair for you free of charge.
HOW DO I HANDLE EMERGENCY REPAIRS?
If your vehicle needs an emergency warrantable repair and a Ford
Motor Company dealer is not available, or if a Ford Motor
Company dealer cannot perform warrantable repair(s) within 30
days of you bringing your vehicle to the dealer, repairs may be
performed at any service establishment or by you using Ford
equivalent replacement parts.
