About the Warranties

basic rights and responsibilities.

If you lose your Warranty Information Booklet, you

can get a new one free of charge. Contact any Ford

or Lincoln-Mercury dealer, or refer to the addresses

and phone numbers on the first page of this owner

guide.

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.

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.
