7. Additional information about your emissions warranty
coverage, under Federal and California requirements
HOW DO I GET WARRANTY SERVICE?
To get service under your emissions warranties, take your vehicle to any
Ford Motor Company dealer as soon as possible after illumination of the
Malfunction Indicator Light or it has failed an EPA-approved test or a
California Smog Check inspection. Be sure to show the dealer the
document that says your vehicle has failed the test.
Your dealer will determine whether the repair is covered by the warranty.
If the dealer has a question about Emissions Performance Warranty
coverage, it will forward the question to Ford Motor Company, which
must make a final decision within 30 days after you bring your vehicle in
for repair. (The decision will be made within a shorter time if state, local,
or federal law requires you to have the vehicle repaired more quickly in
order to avoid additional penalties.) The deadline for a determination
about Emissions Performance Warranty Coverage does not need to be
met if you request a delay, agree to a delay in writing, or if the delay is
caused by an event for which neither Ford nor your dealer is
responsible.
If a question about Emissions Performance Warranty coverage is referred
to Ford Motor Company, you will be notified by Ford Motor Company in
writing if your claim for warranty coverage is denied. The notice will
explain the basis for denying your claim. If you fail to receive this notice
within a timely manner, as determined above, Ford will perform the
warranty repair for you free of charge.
HOW DO I HANDLE EMERGENCY REPAIRS?
If your vehicle needs an emergency warrantable repair and a Ford dealer
is not available, or if a Ford dealer cannot perform warrantable repair(s)
within 30 days of you bringing your vehicle to the dealer, repairs may be
performed at any service establishment or by you using Ford equivalent
replacement parts.
