Protect ESP Vehicle Eligibility Requirements
When can I purchase a New or Pre-Owned Ford or Lincoln Protect ESP Plan and Extended Warranty Service Plan? What are the eligibility requirements?
For Vehicles Past the Original Factory Warranty
Vehicles not covered by the original factory warranty may also qualify for a Ford Protect ESP Plan and Extended Warranty Coverage A Used Vehicle Inspection Form must be completed by any authorized Ford or Lincoln Dealer Service Center, however, prior to purchasing the used extended warranty.
For Vehicles with An Active Ford ESP Plan
Vehicles currently covered by an active California, Texas, New York, Michigan, Indiana, or Illinois Ford Protect ESP plan that will expire soon are also eligible for additional Ford Protect ESP plan coverage. During the quote process, simply indicate that your vehicle’s “Basic Factory Warranty has Expired” and you will be directed to available Ford Extended Service Plans that start from the purchase date of the warranty.
IMPORTANT: You will want to wait until your current contract is close to expiring based on years or miles, as the extension contract supersedes the active contract on the purchase date. When extending an active contract, a vehicle inspection is not required.
