Ford Maintenance Plan

Mike127 · 09-22-2011, 12:32 PM

I bought my 2012 LTD 302A 4WD w/ tow pkg last night.
Paid $900 for 6yrs/75,000 "Ford ESP Premium MAINTENACE Plan"
Which includes has a maximum No. of 7 service visits
I bargained an additional two free oil changes on the car purchase which will not subtract from the 7 visits allowed by my ESP
They tried to sell it to me for $1200 @ first, so I got them lower by $300.
I don't drive the car but on sundays so I didn't think I needed the 6yr/100k with 20 visits. I'm hoping no car would need that much maintenance.

It covers or not:
Scheduled Maintenance = Yes
Major Component coverage = No
Limited Wear item coverage = Yes
Deductible per repair visit = $0
First day rental option = Yes
Roadside Assistance = No
Transferable to subsequent Owner = Yes
FULL synthetic Oil option = Yes

They tried to sell me the Premium Extended warranty 7yr/125,000 for $2100-$2300... I promptly said "NO." I know everyone is getting them online at 1/2 that price. Hope this helps someone, those finance guys are ruthless when it comes to getting you to purchase the "extras"

Maintenance plans generally can sense in Canada (subject to price) as I usually switch to winter tires, so that is about $50 a time, or $100 per year. Over 6 years, that is $600 before taking into account wear items like brakes, wipers, etc (I'm not counting oil, since that is usually something dealer will provide).
