PARTS REPLACEMENT RECOMMENDATION
We built your vehicle to the highest standards using quality parts. We recommend that you use genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts whenever your vehicle requires scheduled maintenance or repair. You can clearly identify genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts by the Ford, FoMoCo or Motorcraft brand on the part or its packaging.
Scheduled Maintenance and Mechanical Repair
One of the best ways to ensure your vehicle provides years of service is to maintain it according to our recommendations, using parts that meet the specifications detailed in this owner's manual. Genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts meet or exceed these specifications.
Collision Repair
We hope you never have a collision, but accidents happen. Genuine Ford collision parts meet our strict requirements for fit, finish, structural integrity, corrosion protection and dent resistance. During vehicle development, we verify that these parts provide the intended level of protection for the overall system. An excellent way to ensure you receive this level of protection is to use genuine Ford replacement parts.
Replacement Parts Warranty
The only replacement parts covered by the Ford warranty are genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts. The Ford warranty may not cover damage to your vehicle caused by defective parts not manufactured by Ford. For more information, refer to the Ford warranty terms and conditions.
