2007 Ford Escape Warranty Guide 5th Printing - Page 16

Where a vehicle has no factory-related defect, and is therefore not entitled to a warranty related repair, replacement or adjustment, it is Ford policy nonetheless to provide certain maintenance items, when necessary, free of charge during a limited period: • wiper blade replacements will be provided during the first 12 months in service, regardless of miles driven • wheel alignments and tire balancing (unless required by a warranty repair) will be provided during the first 12 months or 12,000 miles in service, whichever occurs first • Brake pad/lining replacements will be provided during the first 12 months or 18,000 miles in service, whichever occurs first Tire Wear or Damage The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover normal wear or worn out tires. Tires will not be replaced (unless required by a warranty repair) for wear or damage including: • tire damage from road hazard such as cuts, snags, bruises, bulges, puncture, and impact breaks • tire damage due to under or over inflation, tire chain use, racing, spinning (as when stuck in snow or mud), improper mounting or dismounting, or tire repair Other Items or Conditions Not Covered The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover: • vehicles that have had the odometer disconnected, altered, or inoperative for an extended period of time with the result that the actual mileage cannot be determined • vehicles that have ever been labeled or branded as dismantled, fire, flood, junk, rebuilt, reconstructed, or salvaged; this will void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty • vehicles that have been determined to be a total loss by an insurance company; this will void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty • converted Expedition EL Limousines that are not equipped with the Limousine Builder's Package (17L) Option, or if the wheelbase is extended beyond 140 inches, or if the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) exceeds 9,900 pounds.
