#15 of 24 Ford Extended Service Plan by rnarg

Oct 22, 2007 (3:19 pm)

I found my Ford ESP at the website: MyFordWarranty.com.
 
The site is easy to use and has all the price options for your particular model and circumstances.
 
For my 2008 FEH 4wd I selected the PremiumCare, 6year, 75,000 mile plan with a $200 deductible. Your personal circumstances should dictate which plan if any you should choose. (Note: your state of residency is required for the pricing. I reside in VA)
 
I paid the price indicated on the chart for my selection ---$640. My local dealer was not able to match this dealers price. Note: As stated by others on this discussion topic, it really doesn't matter from which Ford Dealer you purchase, as the contract you receive will come from Ford once they verify your particular vehicle etc.

#16 of 24 Is Ford Extended Warranty available if car is out of warranty? by swtools

Several web sites that I tried that sell Ford Extended Warranties would not cover a FEH that is out of warranty. My 2006 FEH is 44 months old, but has only 15,300 miles. The dealer I bought it from provided a 3 month warranty, and it is covered by CA emissions for 15 yrs/150k and for hybrid battery/transmission for 8 yrs/100k.
 
I found one site that will sell me the plan, but 4 years/48,000 miles ExtraCare is priced at $1380, and it requires an inspection by a licensed automotive repair facility at an additional cost. Can I do any better than this?

I tried a ford dealer site that sells warranty, and they provided the following message:
 
"Your vehicle must be within its Manafacturer's Warranty to purchase a new ESP plan. Please call 888-318-8534 for used vehicle pricing."
 
You might try that number...

"The best place that I have found to purchace a Ford ESP Extended Warranty is www.ford-esp-online.com. Their prices are the best of any site or dealer that I have found and the transaction was very easy. I highly recommend them"
 
Since you appear to only make posts for warranty plans, I'm assuming you are a dealer or broker.
 
I got my ESP at www.myfordwarranty.com. They had the exact same price for the same warranty as the site you suggested, plus you can complete the entire transaction online, without providing any email information and waiting for an email quote. Plus, they offered a deal on first day rental... the warranty was accepted pending Ford official approval, which came in a couple of days. Very easy processing.

"No I am not a dealer or a broker. I am a customer who bought a plan a Ford ESP at www.ford.esp-online.com for my Focus. I had a good experiance buying the plan because Laura Lynn (salesperson) was extremely helpful and sweet! "
 
Ah, that explains it, all your posts were about one of these two sites. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
 
I also recommend that everyone at the very least check out the prices on these sites, and take that information to the dealer. If the dealer will match the price, fine. Otherwise, buy the car and then go on line to buy the warranty.

By way of comparison, I just paid $1130 for a 48 month ExtraCare $100 deductible at www.troyfordesp.com. I have been retired for 11 years and the mileage on my Ford 2006 Escape Hybrid is only 12276 miles with no service problems on the car. A plan for a lower deductible might exist if my regular Ford warranty did not expire in March 2009 after 3 years' ownership.

#23 of 24 It appears Ford ESP does not cover Hybrid Battery by mtnmarty

It appears that none of the Ford ESP plans cover the Hybrid Battery.
 
You must read what components are covered in the ESP plans and I only found mention of the Hybrid Battery in the "Premium Care" under "Covered Components", "High Tech",
 
"Unique Hybrid Vehicle
Components (Excluding High-Voltage Battery and Cables)"
 
So, sadly it appears the battery is not covered!!!!!

It is not covered because the Federal government requires a hybrid parts warranty to 8 years / 100K (10 years 150K for CARB states).
