Default Ford EASYCARE Extended Warranty

Hi folks,

Sent my baby to the dealer to check out a few things before my extended warranty runs out.

1. Front-end clunk since day one (TSB)
2. Passenger compartment water leak (TSB)
3. Automatic shifter not engaging D (4th) when upshifting from 3rd
4. Radio - CD changer has trouble ejecting / loading CD

Well, all of them were verified by a Ford tech.

Easycare will only cover the friggin' radio.

Any ideas how to get these repairs done under warranty?

Thanks
SOHC

so what are the details of your warranty? Usually electronics, such as the radio, are only covered under the most comprehensive plans meaning that if it is covered then so is everything else. I would pull out your warranty papers and figure out what is and isn't covered. How many miles is your warranty to coverage for? You have an 06 right?

What level coverage do you have - PowertainCare, BaseCare, ExtraCare, or PremiumCare? And what is EasyCare? Ford calls their warranty ESP - Extended Service Plan (https://www.genuineservice.com/genui...new_esp_browse).Did you buy yours from the dealer?

I'll check it again when I get home.

It what I got from the dealer with my new car.

I have the maximum coverage for the plan.

for me it has been. my dealership has fixed a ton on things on my car that were not cheap. that includes the auto shifter, the ecu, and the leather seats.

Why'd you wait so long to get them done?

Most plan state they will not fix: squeaks, rattles or water leaks. However, since there is a TSB out on the front-end clunk, and the water leak they should fix it since it is a defect with the car, not parts worn over time.

Best of luck!
