Warranty
Corrosion Coverage
Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, Corrosion Coverage begins at
the warranty start date and covers body sheet metal panels against cor-
rosion due to a defect in factory-supplied materials or workmanship. Cor-
rosion coverage (which lasts for 5 years, regardless of miles driven) only
applies if the corrosion causes perforation (holes) in body sheet metal
panels.
If corrosion does not cause perforation (holes), and is not the result of
usage and/or environmental conditions, paint damage is covered under
the terms of the Bumper to Bumper Warranty (3 years or 36,000 miles,
whichever occurs first).
For damage caused by airborne material (environmental fallout) - where
there is no factory-related defect involved and therefore no warranty -
our policy is to cover paint damage due to airborne material for
12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
Escape Hybrid/Mariner Hybrid Unique Component Coverage
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty covers certain Escape
Hybrid/MarinerHybrid unique components against defects in factory-
supplied materials or workmanship for eight years after the warranty
start date or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Ford Motor Company or Ford Motor Vehicle Assurance Company covers
these components: high-voltage battery, electronically controlled continu-
ously variable transmission, and the DC/DC converter.
NOTE: some components may also be covered by the Emissions Warran-
ties. For more information, see pages 12-20.

• accidents, collision or objects striking the vehicle (including driving
through a car wash)
