Maintenance and Service Guide

Factory Authorized Systems Checks

In the event your vehicle experiences a component related concern, please contact your Ford, Lincoln or

Mercury dealership. The Ford Motor Company Trained Technicians who work at Ford, Lincoln or Mercury

dealerships are specifically trained to understand your vehicle.

A proper repair begins with a thorough system check. Factory Authorized Systems Checks can ONLY be

found at a Ford or Lincoln Mercury dealership. In some circumstances, the Technician may need to request

your authorization to perform additional operations to determine the final diagnosis. The Technician’s

goal is to ensure that your vehicle is fixed right the first time, at the best value to you.

The following list represents several of the Factory Authorized Systems Checks available at participating

Ford and Lincoln Mercury Dealerships:

• Climate Control

• Service Engine Soon Light

• All Wheel Drive/Four-Wheel Drive

• Automatic Transmission

• Engine Cooling/Cabin Heating

• Suspension/Steering

• Charge/Start/Battery

• Wheel Alignment

• Brakes

And when your vehicle needs replacement parts, insist that only parts meeting Ford Motor Company’s

specifications are used. Genuine Ford and Motorcraft branded parts meet these specifications. You can find

them at your Ford and Lincoln Mercury Dealership. Look for the following brand logos to ensure the

parts installed on your vehicle meet Ford Motor Company Specifications.
