FORD MUSTANG MACH-E 2021 Warranty Guide

Ford and your Dealer are not responsible for any time or income that
you lose, any inconvenience you might be caused, the loss of your
transportation or use of your vehicle, the cost of rental vehicles, fuel,
telephone, travel, meals, or lodging, the loss of personal or commercial
property, the loss of revenue, or for any other incidental or
consequential damages you may have.
Punitive, exemplary, or multiple damages may not be recovered unless
applicable law prohibits their disclaimer.
You may not bring any warranty-related claim as a class
representative, a private attorney general, a member of a class of
claimants or in any other representative capacity.
Ford shall not be liable for any damages caused by delay in delivery or
furnishing of any products and/or services.
You may have some implied warranties. For example, you may have an
implied warranty of merchantability (that the car or light truck is
reasonably fit for the general purpose for which it was sold) or an
implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose (that the car or
light truck is suitable for your special purposes), if a special purpose
was specifically disclosed to Ford itself not merely to the Dealer
before your purchase, and Ford itself not just the Dealer told you the
vehicle would be suitable for that purpose.
These implied warranties are limited, to the extent allowed by law, to
the time period covered by the written warranties, or to the applicable
time period provided by state law, whichever period is shorter.
DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES FOR BUSINESS AND
RACING USE
*** Ford disclaims all implied warranties if the vehicle is
used for business or commercial purposes. ***
*** Ford disclaims the implied warranty of fitness for a
particular purpose if your vehicle is used for racing, even if
the vehicle is equipped for racing. ***

The warranties contained in this booklet and all questions regarding
their enforceability and interpretation are governed by the law of the
state in which you purchased your Ford vehicle. Some states do not
allow Ford to limit how long an implied warranty lasts or to exclude
or limit incidental or consequential damages, so the limitation and
exclusions described above may not apply to you.
APPLICABILITY OF LIMITATIONS OF IMPLIED WARRANTY TO NEW
VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY
*** This information about the limitation of implied warranties
and the exclusion of incidental and consequential damages also
applies to the NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY. ***

QUICK REFERENCE: WARRANTY COVERAGE
This chart gives a general summary of your warranty coverage provided
by Ford Motor Company under theNew Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Please refer to the description of warranty coverage for more specific
information.
For each type of coverage, the chart shows two measures:
• years in service •miles driven
The measure that occurs first determines how long your coverage lasts.
For example: Your Bumper to Bumper Coverage lasts for three years -
unless you drive more than 36,000 miles before three years elapse.
In that case, your coverage ends at 36,000 miles.

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.
Note: Warranted repairs with respect to the high voltage battery
assembly must be performed by an EV Certified Ford dealership.
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 13-17. 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.
Nothing in this warranty should be construed as requiring or prohibiting
that defective parts be replaced with parts of a different type or design
than the original part, so long as the vehicle functions properly with the9

replacement part. Moreover, Ford and its authorized Dealers are entitled
to a reasonable time and a reasonable number of attempts within which
to diagnose and repair any defect covered by this warranty.
In certain instances, Ford may authorize repairs at facilities other than a
Ford Dealer.
Two separate warranties apply to tires on your new vehicle. The New
Vehicle Limited Warranty covers tire defects in factory supplied material
or workmanship for 100% of labor costs and on a pro rata adjustment
basis for parts. (See the reimbursement schedule below).
For vehicles within the New Vehicle Limited Warranty time in service
and mileage coverage period, defective tires will be replaced on a pro
rata adjustment basis according to the following mileage-based
Reimbursement Schedule:
MILES DRIVENPERCENT OF PARTS COVERED BY FORD
1-12,000 100%
12,001-24,000 60%
24,001-36,000 30%
The tire manufacturer also provides you with a separate tire warranty that
may extend beyond the New Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage. You will
find the manufacturer’s tire warranty with the owner literature supplied
with your vehicle. You have the option of having a tire warranty repair
performed by the tire manufacturer’s authorized service center. If you go
to a tire service center for a repair covered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty, you may be charged a prorated amount for wear or other
charges. If so, you should present your paid invoice detailing the nature of
the charges to any Ford Motor Company dealership for refund
consideration. When making warranty repairs on your vehicle, the Dealer
will use Ford, Motorcraft, remanufactured or other parts that are
authorized by Ford. In certain instances, Ford may authorize repairs at
facilities other than a Ford Dealer. Tire replacements under warranty will
be made with the same brand and model as originally equipped with the
vehicle unless the same brand and model is no longer available, in which
case a tire of the same brand, size, load, speed and tread type will be
used. In some circumstances, Ford may authorize another brand and/or
model to substitute for the original brand and model, even if still available.
Normal tire wear or damage is not reimbursable. See page 16 for details
of what is not covered.

Extended warranty coverage periods are available for certain
vehicle parts and conditions. Specifically,
(1) Your vehicle’s Powertrain components are covered for five years or
60,000 miles, whichever occurs first. The extended Powertrain coverage
applies to all components of the driveline that are not specifically
covered by the Electric Vehicle Component warranty. Powertrain
components that receive warranty coverage for five years or 60,000 miles
may include gears, differential, shafts, fluid pumps, seals and gaskets,
bearings, mounts, drive shaft, retainers, supports, universal and constant
velocity joints.
(2) The high voltage battery and eDrive systems of your vehicle are
covered by the Electric Vehicle Component coverage for eight years or
100,000 miles, whichever comes first. High voltage battery and eDrive
components covered by this warranty include the high voltage battery
assembly, Bussed Electrical Center (BEC), Battery Energy Control
Module (BECM), on-board charger, Inverter System Controller (ISC),
DC/DC converter, and eDrive. If a covered component requires
replacement under the Electric Vehicle Component warranty, it may be
replaced with a new, factory remanufactured, or factory refurbished
component, at Ford’s discretion. Refurbished battery components
selected for your vehicle will align with your vehicle’s age and mileage
and meet Ford’s requirements and standards.
(3) 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.
(4) 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.11

High Voltage Lithium-Ion Battery Capacity Coverage
As is the case with all batteries, the high voltage lithium-ion battery
capacity will decrease over time and with use. While gradual capacity
loss with time and use is considered normal wear and tear, Ford Motor
Company warrants the high voltage battery against excessive capacity
loss for a period of 8 years/100,000 miles, whichever comes first. If an
authorized EV Certified Ford Dealer determines that the battery capacity
is less than 70 percent of the high voltage battery’s beginning of life
capacity, or less than 65 percent for vehicles in cutaway or chassis cab
configuration, this level of capacity loss is considered excessive. The
measurement method used to determine the high voltage battery
capacity, and the decision of whether to repair, replace, or provide
reconditioned or remanufactured parts, and the condition of any such
replaced, reconditioned or remanufactured parts, are at the sole
discretion of Ford Motor Company. During the High Voltage Battery
Capacity Coverage period, Ford Motor Company will cover the necessary
component repair or replacement to correct this excessive capacity loss,
when performed by an EV Certified Ford dealership. This coverage is in
addition to the high voltage battery assembly’s limited warranty for
defects in materials or workmanship. If a warranty repair requires
replacement of the high voltage battery assembly, or one of its
components, it may be replaced with a new, factory remanufactured, or
factory refurbished component, at Ford’s discretion. Refurbished battery
components selected for your vehicle will align with your vehicle’s age,
and mileage.
NOTE: The battery capacity degradation rate will vary based on various
factors, including environmental conditions, and will also be affected by
the way in which the vehicle is used. Following the recommendations in
thePreserving Your High Voltage Battery section of the Owner’s
Manual may help lower the rate of capacity degradation and optimize
battery life.
Over the Air (OTA) Updates
During the warranty coverage period, Ford Motor Company warrants that:
• you will not be charged for diagnosis, repair, replacement, or
adjustment of components that are damaged or inoperable due to a
defect caused by an OTA update
