12. Important information about ambulance
conversions
Ford vehicles are suitable for producing ambulances only if equipped
with the Ford Ambulance Prep Package. In addition, Ford urges
ambulance manufacturers to follow the recommendations of the Ford
Incomplete Vehicle Manual and the Ford Truck Body Builders
Layout Book (and pertinent supplements).
Using a Ford vehicle without the Ford Ambulance Prep Package
to produce an ambulance could result in elevated underbody
temperatures, fuel overpressurization, and the risk of fuel
expulsion and fires. Such use also voids the Ford Bumper to
Bumper Warranty and may void the Emissions Warranties.
You may determine whether the vehicle is equipped with the Ford
Ambulance Prep Package by inspecting the information plate on the
driver’s rear door pillar.
You may determine whether the ambulance manufacturer has followed
Ford’s recommendations by contacting the ambulance manufacturer of
your vehicle.
13. Important information about limousine
conversions
Ford Motor Company authorizes only those Qualified Vehicle Modifiers
(QVM’s) of limousines as listed at www.certifiedlimo.com to perform Ford
Excursion limousine conversions using the XLT package with a 6.8L engine
and 4.30 axle (XC3). In addition, the Excursion limousine must have the
limousine retro-fit package installed that includes the brake hydro-boost, tire
upgrade and spring package. The wheelbase on Ford Excursions modified
into limousines cannot exceed the maximum extension of 120 inches or
exceed a total Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 9,900 pounds.
If the Excursion limousine has not been modified by an authorized QVM
and/or stretched beyond 1209, or has a GVWR of over 9,900 pounds, then the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty is voided and any Ford Extended Service
Plan (ESP) contract is voided. In addition, applicable Emissions Warranties
may also be voided, and the vehicle modifier may be considered the vehicle
‘‘manufacturer’ for Emissions Warranty coverage purposes (including
responsibilities for emissions warranty, recall, and in-use compliance).
