Warranty

1. Introduction
Ford Motor Company and your selling dealer thank you for selecting
one of our quality products. Our commitment to you and your vehicle
begins with quality protection and service.
When you need warranty repairs, your selling dealer would like you to
return to it for that service, but you may also take your vehicle to
another Ford Motor Company dealership authorized to service Lincoln
vehicles. Certain warranty repairs require special training though, so not
all dealers are authorized to perform all warranty repairs. That means
that, depending on the warranty repair needed, the vehicle may need to
be taken to another dealer. If a particular dealership cannot assist you,
then contact the Lincoln Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-521-4140.
This booklet explains in detail the warranty coverages that apply to your
2000–model Lincoln vehicle. If you bought a previously owned
2000–model vehicle, you are eligible for any remaining warranty
coverages.
Ford Motor Company provides the Emissions Defect Warranties and
Emissions Performance Warranties which cover your emissions
control systems (pages 12-23).
Ford Motor Company or Ford Motor Vehicle Assurance Company (a
subsidiary of Ford Motor Company, The American Road, Dearborn, MI
48121) provides the New Vehicle Limited Warranty (pages 4-7).
If you are interested in knowing whether the warranty coverage is
provided by Ford Motor Company or Ford Motor Vehicle Assurance
Company, call the Lincoln Customer Assistance Center at
1-800-521-4140. The warranty coverage you receive and your dealer’s
handling of any warranty covered repair will be the same regardless of
the warranty provider.
