Your Lincoln New Vehicle Limited Warranty

Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited (Ford of Canada) warrants that its authorized dealers will repair,
replace or adjust those parts on Lincoln vehicles, that are found to be defective in materials or
workmanship made or supplied by Ford for the coverage periods described in the Warranty Information
section of this Warranty Guide.

Who is Authorized to Do Warranty Repairs?

You must take your vehicle to an authorized Ford or Ford Lincoln dealer for warranty repairs. While any
Ford or Ford Lincoln dealership handling your vehicle line will provide warranty service, we recommend you return
to your selling dealer who wants to ensure your continued satisfaction.
Please note that certain warranty repairs require special training and/or equipment, so not all dealers are
authorized to perform all warranty repairs. This means that, depending on the warranty repair
needed, you may have to take your vehicle to another dealer. In certain instances, Ford may authorize
that your vehicle be repaired at a repair centre other than a Ford or Ford Lincoln dealer facility.
A reasonable time must be allowed to perform a repair after taking your vehicle to the dealership. Repairs
will be made using Ford or Motorcraft Parts, or remanufactured or other parts that are authorized by
Ford.

Who Pays for Warranty Repairs?

Ford of Canada covers the cost of warranty repairs performed under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
Coverage during the "time and distance travelled" limits of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Parts (excluding tires) replaced under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty receive the greater of: (i) a
3 month or 5,000 km (whichever occurs first) warranty or (ii) the balance of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty,
and such warranty shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
NOTE: Tires replaced under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty receive the balance of the Basic Coverage
only. See Tire Warranty (page 9) for details.
Federal or provincial governments may require an environmental or disposal tax (levy) on all or a portion
of a warranty repair, in which case this tax (levy) must be paid by you, the owner of the vehicle.

When Does the Warranty Begin?

The warranty begins on the original retail delivery date, or on the date of first use (whichever occurs first).
This is the "original warranty start date".

Basic Coverage

Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, Basic Coverage begins at the original warranty start date and
lasts for 48 months or 80,000 km (whichever occurs first). The complete vehicle is covered under this Basic
Coverage, except components listed under the following warranties in this Warranty Guide, and those
items listed under "What is Not Covered Under this New Vehicle Limited Warranty?" on page 10.
