How do I make sure my vehicle is covered by warranty?

Understand the essential steps and responsibilities required to maintain your Ford vehicle's warranty coverage. Learn how proper care, maintenance, and adherence to guidelines ensure you receive maximum benefits from your Ford warranty.

To ensure your Ford vehicle remains covered by its warranty and to gain the maximum benefits, it is crucial for owners to adhere to specific guidelines. These requirements are detailed in the warranty guide provided with each vehicle.

Key responsibilities include:

2. Fuel Specification: Always ensure that only the fuel type specified for your vehicle is used.
3. Maintenance Records: Retain all maintenance service and inspection records. These documents serve as verification of your vehicle’s maintenance history, should it be required for a warranty claim.
4. Prompt Defect Rectification: Any defect or fault arising in components covered by the warranty must be rectified immediately to prevent further damage.
5. Authorized Dealer Service: To obtain warranty and policy service, you must take your vehicle to an authorized Ford Dealer's place of business during regular business hours. Please note that transport to the dealership is at the customer's expense.

By consistently following these guidelines, you help ensure the validity of your Ford warranty and protect your investment.
