Warranty Coverage WARRANTY COVERAGE The Shelby GT500 carries the same warranty as other Ford Mustang models. This information is covered in its entirety in the Ford Motor Company Warranty Guide. Warranty service for the Shelby GT500 or any SVT vehicle can be obtained at any Ford dealer nationwide. SVT does not recommend modifying or racing SVT vehicles, as they are designed and built to be driven as delivered from the factory. The Ford Motor Company Warranty Guide discusses vehicle usage and the installation of aftermarket parts and their effect on warranty coverage. Please see the Warranty Guide for complete information. In the event the vehicle is intended for track use, and the loss of warranty coverage is not of concern, the following vehicle durability modifications are required: • Install transmission oil cooler. Permanent damage to the transmission will result if the vehicle is subjected to competition conditions without installation of a transmission oil cooler. • Install rear differential cooler. Permanent damage to the rear differential will result if the vehicle is subjected to competition conditions without installation of a differential cooler. • Install Ford Racing brake cooling duct kit. Excessive brake wear will occur if the vehicle is subjected to competition conditions without installation of a brake cooling kit. • Replace the rear axle lubricant after the first 1 hour of high-speed operation or if the vehicle is subjected to competition conditions and every 12 hours thereafter. Additionally, perform multi-point inspection and the maintenance outlined in the 150,000 mile (240,000 km) normal maintenance schedule of the scheduled maintenance information before and after track use. Refer to the vehicle service manual for removal and installation procedures. Replace with Genuine Ford and Motorcraft service parts as needed. These modifications may not necessarily protect your engine from damage in competition conditions. Subjecting your vehicle to competition conditions even with these proposed modifications may render repairs non-reimbursable under the warranty. 34 2011 05+ Mustang (197) Supplement, 1st Printing USA (fus)
