Warranty

Any repair not completed within 30 days also constitutes an emergency,

and any equivalent replacement part may be used in an emergency situa-

tion. Ford Motor Company will reimburse you for the repair expenses,

not to exceed: (a) the manufacturer’s suggested retail price for all war-

ranted parts that are replaced; and (b) the labor charges (based on the

manufacturer’s recommended time allowance for the warranty repair and

the geographically appropriate hourly labor rate).

WHAT REPLACEMENT PARTS SHOULD I USE?

Ford Motor Company recommends that you use genuine Ford replace-

ment parts. However, when you are having non-warranty work done on

your vehicle, you may choose to use non-Ford parts.

If you decide to use non-Ford parts, be sure they are equivalent to Ford

parts in performance, quality, and durability. If you use replacement

parts that are not equivalent to Ford parts, your vehicle’s emissions con-

trol systems may not work as effectively, and you may jeopardize your

emissions warranty coverage.

NOTE: FEDERAL WARRANTY ONLY The maintenance, replace-

ment, or repair of emissions control devices or systems, the cost of

which is not covered by the warranties, can be performed by any auto-

motive repair establishment or individual using non-Ford parts.

For vehicles within the warranty period, Ford will repair at no cost to

the owner, under the Federal Emissions Warranty, covered emission fail-

ures caused by properly installed Ford parts or non-Ford parts that have

been “certified” by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Ford is not responsible for the cost of repairing any emission failures

caused by non-Ford parts that have not been “certified” by the EPA.
