Tire Wear or Damage
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover normal wear or
worn out tires. Tires will not be replaced (unless required by a
warranty repair) for wear or damage including:
• tire damage from road hazard such as cuts, snags, bruises,bulges, puncture, and impact breaks
• tire damage due to under or over inflation, tire chain use, racing, spinning (as when stuck in snow or mud), improper mounting
or dismounting, or tire repair
Other Items or Conditions Not Covered
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover:
• vehicles that have had the odometer disconnected, altered, or inoperative for an extended period of time with the result that
the actual mileage cannot be determined
• vehicles that have ever been labeled or branded as dismantled, fire, flood, junk, rebuilt, reconstructed, or salvaged; this will void
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
• vehicles that have been determined to be a total loss by an insurance company; this will void the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty
• converted ambulances that are not equipped with the Ford Ambulance Prep Package, see important information about
ambulance conversions (page 47)
• aftermarket parts or components, sometimes installed by Ford Motor Company or an authorized Ford dealership, may not be
covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Any damage
caused to Ford components due to the failure of aftermarket
parts (other than a certified emissions part) is not covered.
• high-voltage battery replacement due to improper vehicle storage. Refer to the Owner’s Manual for the proper ways your
vehicle’s battery must be maintained in the event the vehicle is
not driven or is stored for an extended period of time.

4. In addition ...
ROADSIDE SERVICE ASSISTANCE
(UNITED STATES, PUERTO RICO, AND U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS)
Your vehicle is covered by the complimentary Ford Roadside
Assistance Program (unless you are driving a daily rental unit).
Under this program, Ford will cover:
• Towing to the nearest Ford Motor Company dealership, ortowing to your selling dealership if within 35 miles of the
disablement
• Flat tire change (vehicle must have useable spare)
• Fuel delivery (limited to two occurrences in a 12-month period up to 2 gal. gas, 5 gal. diesel)
• 12V Battery jump starts
• Lock-out assistance (replacement key cost is customer responsibility)
• Winch out services: includes pulling a vehicle within 100 feet of a paved or county maintained road. No recoveries.
The Roadside Assistance Program is separate from the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. It begins at the warranty start date and
lasts for five years or 60,000 miles (whichever occurs first). If
you need towing beyond the five years or 60,000 miles
(whichever occurs first) period, Ford can arrange roadside
assistance and charge your credit card. If the reason for the
vehicle disablement is later found to be covered by a Ford or
Lincoln Protect extended service plan, you may seek
reimbursement for a tow charge under that plan.
For emergency roadside assistance, call 1-800-241-3673,
24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
