Warranty
Maintenance/Wear
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover: (1) parts and labor
needed to maintain the vehicle; and (2) the replacement of parts due to
normal wear and tear. You, as the owner, are responsible for these items.
See your Scheduled Maintenance Guide. Some examples of maintenance
and normal wear are:
• oil changes
• oils, lubricants, other fluids
• oil/air filters
• tire rotation/inflation
• cleaning/polishing
• clutch linings
• Wiper blades
• Wheel alignments and tire
balancing
• Brake pad/lining
Where a vehicle has no factory-related defect, and is therefore not
entitled to a warranty related repair, replacement or adjustment, it is
Ford policy nonetheless to provide certain maintenance items, when
necessary, free of charge during a limited period:
• wiper blade replacements will be provided during the first 12 months
in service, regardless of miles driven
• wheel alignments and tire balancing (unless required by a warranty
repair) will be provided during the first 12 months or 12,000 miles in
service, whichever occurs first
• Brake pad/lining replacements will be provided during the first
12 months or 18,000 miles in service, whichever occurs first
