What Protection Plans Does Ford Offer?

The Ford Maintenance Protection Plan

Ford Service

The Maintenance Protection Plan is designed to keep your car in tip-top condition and run smoothly throughout its life. Great maintenance should help ensure that the resale value remains high, so it’s one of the best ways to optimize your investment. You can choose the extent of your coverage, from two to eight years, and will be covered for:

• Brake pads, linings, and rotors

• Oil changes and filters

• Tire rotations

• Engine belts

• Spark plugs

• Wiper blades

• Shock absorbers

Your car will also receive multipoint inspections, and fluids will be checked, replaced, and refilled. All Ford dealers in the US cover the plan, and you’re guaranteed Ford-approved parts and service. 

The Ford Protect Extended Service Plan

An Extended Service Plan covers the cost of parts that need replacing through defects or just normal wear and tear. Coverage comes in four tiers:

• PremiumCARE

• ExtraCARE

• BaseCARE

• PowertrainCARE

Depending on the tier, these plans can provide coverage for the replacement of hundreds or even thousands of components. Electric vehicle drivers can access the PremiumCARE, ExtraCARE, and BaseCARE packages.

The Ford PremiumCARE Extended Service Plan

The PremiumCARE package is the most popular and comprehensive of the Extended Service Plans. It covers any necessary replacement parts for the engine, suspension, brakes, electrical systems, transmission, and steering and will help protect you from unexpected expense for 10 years, or 170,000 miles. In total, over 1,000 components are included in the PremiumCARE package.

The Ford Maintenance Protection Plan with WearCare

No matter how carefully you drive, it’s impossible to guarantee that your car won’t suffer small amounts of damage and wear. For more general protection with a lease, the WearCare plan provides coverage for a certain amount of normal wear and tear that might occur for the duration of your lease. It’s available for up to 48 months and will cover missing parts of up to a certain value. Please check your Lanham Ford dealership for additional details.

Ford Protect offers numerous other packages that can be tailored to meet your needs and budget, including TheftCARE, WindshieldCARE, and DentCARE, so you’re guaranteed to find just the right level of coverage to provide you with both a car that runs perfectly and complete peace of mind.
