Worn brakes will not be covered under a warranty. Any item that is "wearable" such as brakes, tires, bulbs are not covered by the factory warranty.

Yea not technically covered but they havent felt right since I bought my vehicle and my dealer has told me to bring it in since I first purchased it. I am pretty sure that they will have no problem fixing them since I have purchased 7 vehicles between me and my family in the last 3 years

Before you purchase a Ford ESP from your dealer, get a quote from the site sponsors who are Ford dealerships. They will usually sell you an ESP at a sustantial discount over the local dealer.

Same ESP, just cheaper.

A couple people mentioned getting their money back if they don't use their ESP, I've never seen that before but it certainly is possible. I know that if you buy the ESP and don't use it and trade your vehicle off before it expires they will usually give you a credit on the ESP for the next one. We did this with one of my wife's cars. Bought the extended warranty, traded it off at 70,000KM (40,000 miles) (warranty was to 100,000KM (60,000 miles)) and they gave us $1,000 dollar credit towards the ESP on the next car. Basically cut the cost in half on the second ESP.


I just wish she could keep a car to 100,000KM - it would save me some $$ and maybe I could change MY vehicle more often - she seems to change vehicles twice before I change once - she has 44,000KM on her current car and is already talking about a Lincoln MKX

If your looking for peace of mind then yea go for it, but that is all most warranties are good for. Unless you have a 6.0
