Buying a Ford Extended Service Plan
If you bought your vehicle in the U.S., you can buy
a Ford Extended Service Plan for your vehicle. This
optional contract provides service protection for a
longer period of time than the basic warranty that
comes with your vehicle.
You do not have to buy this option when you buy
your vehicle. However, your option to purchase the
Ford Extended Service Plan runs out after 18
months or 18,000 miles. See your dealer for more
details about the Ford Extended Service Plan.
If you purchased a Canadian vehicle and did not
take advantage of the Ford Extended Service Plan at
the time of purchase, you may still be eligible. See
your dealer for the details.
6
Breaking Your Vehicle In
Your new vehicle goes through an adjustment or
break-in period during the first 1,000 miles
(1,600 km) that you drive it. During the break-in
period, you need to pay careful attention to how
you drive your vehicle.
Avoid sudden stops. Because your vehicle has
new brake linings, you should take these steps:
-Watch traffic carefully so that you can
anticipate when to stop.
-Begin braking well in advance.
-Apply the brakes gradually.
The break-in period for new brake linings lasts
for I 00 miles (I 60 km) of city driving or 1,000
miles (1,600 km) of highway driving.
