12. Important information about ambulance conversions Ford vehicles are suitable for producing ambulances only if equipped with the Ford Ambulance Prep Package. In addition, Ford urges ambulance manufacturers to follow the recommendations of the Ford Incomplete Vehicle Manual and the Ford Truck Body Builders Layout Book (and pertinent supplements). Using a Ford vehicle without the Ford Ambulance Prep Package to produce an ambulance could result in elevated underbody temperatures, fuel overpressurization, and the risk of fuel expulsion and fires. Such use also voids the Ford Bumper to Bumper Warranty and may void the Emissions Warranties. You may determine whether the vehicle is equipped with the Ford Ambulance Prep Package by inspecting the information plate on the driver's rear door pillar. You may determine whether the ambulance manufacturer has followed Ford's recommendations by contacting the ambulance manufacturer of your vehicle. 13. Important information about limousine conversions Ford Motor Company authorizes only those Qualified Vehicle Modifiers (QVM's) of limousines as listed at www.certifiedlimo.com to perform Ford Excursion limousine conversions using the XLT package with a 6.8L engine and 4.30 axle (XC3). In addition, the Excursion limousine must have the limousine retro-fit package installed that includes the brake hydro-boost, tire upgrade and spring package. The wheelbase on Ford Excursions modified into limousines cannot exceed the maximum extension of 120 inches or exceed a total Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of 9,900 pounds. If the Excursion limousine has not been modified by an authorized QVM and/or stretched beyond 120Љ, or has a GVWR of over 9,900 pounds, then the New Vehicle Limited Warranty is voided and any Ford Extended Service Plan (ESP) contract is voided. In addition, applicable Emissions Warranties may also be voided, and the vehicle modifier may be considered the vehicle ''manufacturer'' for Emissions Warranty coverage purposes (including responsibilities for emissions warranty, recall, and in-use compliance). 28
