LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS
All of the warranties in this booklet are subject to the following
limitations and disclaimers:
The warranties in this booklet are the only express warranties
applicable to your vehicle. Ford does not assume or authorize
anyone to assume for it any other obligation or liability in
connection with your vehicle or these warranties. No person,
including Ford employees or dealers, may modify or waive any
part of these warranties.
Ford and its dealers reserve the right to make changes in or
additions to vehicles built or sold by them at any time without
incurring any obligation to make the same or similar changes
or additions to vehicles previously built or sold.
Ford and its dealers also reserve the right to provide
post-warranty repairs, conduct recalls, or extend the warranty
coverage period for certain vehicles or vehicle populations, at
the sole discretion of Ford. The fact that Ford has provided
such measures to a particular vehicle or vehicle population in
no way obligates Ford to provide similar accommodations to
other owners of similar vehicles.
As a condition of these warranties, you are responsible for
properly using, maintaining, and caring for your vehicle as
outlined in your Owner’s Manual. Ford recommends that you
maintain copies of all maintenance records and receipts for
review by Ford.

WHAT IS COVERED?
Your NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY gives you specific legal
rights. You may have other rights that vary from state to state.
Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty if:
- your Ford vehicle is properly operated and maintained, and
- was taken to a Ford dealership for a warranted repair during the
warranty period,
then authorized Ford Motor Company dealers will, without
charge, repair, replace, or adjust all parts on your vehicle that
malfunction or fail during normal use during the applicable
coverage period due to a manufacturing defect in
factory-supplied materials or factory workmanship.
This warranty does not mean that each Ford vehicle is defect
free. Defects may be unintentionally introduced into vehicles
during the design and manufacturing processes and such defects
could result in the need for repairs. Ford provides the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty only to remedy manufacturing defects that
result in vehicle part malfunction or failure during the warranty
period.
The remedy under this written warranty, and any implied
warranty, is limited to repair, replacement, or adjustment of
defective parts. This exclusive remedy shall not be deemed to
have failed its essential purpose so long as Ford, through its
authorized dealers, is willing and able to repair, replace, or adjust
defective parts in the prescribed manner. Ford's liability, if any,
shall in no event exceed the cost of correcting manufacturing
defects as herein provided and upon expiration of this warranty,
any such liability shall terminate.
Conditions that are not covered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty are described on pages 14-19. 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, at the discretion of Ford or the Ford dealership.9

(2) Your vehicle's safety belts and air bag Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) are covered for an extended Safety
Restraint Coverage Period, which lasts for five years or 60,000
miles, whichever occurs first.
(3) Your vehicle’s body sheet metal panels are covered for an
extended Corrosion Coverage Period, which lasts for five years,
regardless of miles driven. The extended warranty coverage only
applies if a body sheet metal panel becomes perforated due to
corrosion during normal use due to a manufacturing defect in
factory-supplied materials or factory workmanship. If aluminum
body panels have corrosion or rust damage, and the damage is
not the result of abnormal usage, vehicle accident, customer
actions and/or extreme environmental conditions, the corrosion
or rust damage repairs are covered for 5 years, unlimited miles.
For damage caused by airborne material (environmental fallout)
where there is no factory-related defect involved and therefore
no warranty − our policy is to provide free repair of paint damage
due to the airborne material for 12 months or 12,000 miles,
whichever occurs first.
(4) Your vehicle's direct injection diesel engine and certain engine
components are covered during the Diesel Engine Coverage
Period, which lasts for five years or 100,000 miles, whichever
occurs first. The following parts are covered during this extended
coverage period: the engine, cylinder block, heads and all internal
parts, intake and exhaust manifolds, timing gear, harmonic
balancer, valve covers, oil pan and pump, water pump, fuel
system (excluding fuel lines, fuel tank and frame mounted fuel
conditioning module sometimes referred to as the frame
mounted pump/filter/water separator or frame mounted fuel
filter/water separator), high pressure lines, gaskets and seals,
glow plugs, turbocharger, two-stage turbocharger assembly,

failure to provide proper installation environment. The New
Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover repairs for certain
damage or loss, such as:
