built, and equipped to meet the Stateâ??s stringent anti-smog standards.
Ford must warrant the emission control system on your vehicle for the
periods of time listed on pages 16-17, provided there has been no abuse,
neglect, or improper maintenance of your vehicle.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor
or fuel injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter, and the
engine computer. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors, and
other emissions-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Ford Motor Company will repair
your vehicle at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts, and labor.

Company dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs
should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
30 days.
As the vehicle owner, you should be aware that Ford Motor Company
may deny you warranty coverage if the vehicle or a part has failed due to

responsibilities, or if you want to report what you believe to be violations
