1. Introduction
Ford Motor Company and your selling dealer thank you for selecting
one of our quality Lincoln products. Our commitment to you and your
vehicle begins with quality protection and service.
When you need warranty repairs, your selling dealer would like you to
return to it for that service, but you may also take your vehicle to
another Lincoln or Ford dealership authorized to service Lincoln
vehicles. Certain warranty repairs require special training though, so not
all dealers are authorized to perform all warranty repairs. That means
that, depending on the warranty repair needed, the vehicle may need to
be taken to another dealer. If a particular dealership cannot assist you,
then contact Lincoln Concierge at 1-800-521-4140.
This booklet explains in detail the warranty coverages that apply to your
2018-model Lincoln vehicle. If you bought a previously owned 2018-model
vehicle, you are eligible for any remaining warranty coverages.
Ford Motor Company provides the Emissions Defect Warranties and
Emissions Performance Warranties which cover your emissions
control systems (pages 20-32).
2. Important information you should know
IF YOU NEED CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE
Your authorized dealer is available to assist you with all your automotive
needs. Please follow the procedures outlined on the front page of this
booklet.
In addition, if you are an eligible U.S. owner, you may use - at no cost the services of the BBB AUTO LINE program. For details, see Better
Business Bureau (BBB) AUTO LINE program, page 34 or call
1-800-955-5100.
4
KNOW WHEN YOUR WARRANTY BEGINS
Your Warranty Start Date is the day you take delivery of your new
vehicle or the day it is first put into service (for example, as a dealer
demonstrator), whichever occurs first.
CHECK YOUR VEHICLE
We try to check vehicles carefully at the assembly plant and the
dealership, and we usually correct any damage to paint, sheet metal,
upholstery, or other appearance items. But occasionally something may
slip past us, and a customer may find that a vehicle was damaged before
he or she took delivery. If you see any damage when you receive your
vehicle, notify your dealership within one week.
MAINTAIN YOUR VEHICLE PROPERLY
Your glove compartment contains an Owner’s Manual which indicates
the scheduled maintenance required for your vehicle. Proper
maintenance guards against major repair expenses resulting from neglect
or inadequate maintenance, may help increase the value you receive
when you sell or trade your vehicle, and is important in allowing your
vehicle to comply with applicable emissions standards.
It is your responsibility to make sure that all of the scheduled
maintenance is performed and that the materials used meet Ford
engineering specifications. Failure to perform scheduled maintenance as
specified in the Owner’s Manual will invalidate warranty coverage on
parts affected by the lack of maintenance. Make sure that receipts for
completed maintenance work are retained with the vehicle and
confirmation of maintenance work is always entered in your Owner’s
Manual.
Your authorized dealer has factory-trained technicians who can perform
the required maintenance using genuine Ford parts. The dealership looks
forward to meeting your every service need to maximize your satisfaction
with your vehicle.
5
WHO PAYS FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS?
You will not be charged for repairs covered by any applicable warranty
during the stated coverage periods, unless specifically stated elsewhere
in this guide.
Some states have mandated alternate time coverage periods for parts of
your vehicle (e.g. seatbelts).
Some states and/or local governments may require a tax on a portion of
warranty repairs. Where applicable law allows, the tax must be paid by
you, the owner of the vehicle.
During the Bumper to Bumper Warranty period, dealers may receive
instructions to provide no-cost, service-type improvements — not
originally included in your Owner’s Manual — intended to increase your
overall satisfaction with your vehicle.
Sometimes Ford may offer a special adjustment program to pay all or
part of the cost of certain repairs beyond the terms of the applicable
warranty. Check with your dealer or call 1-800-521-4140 to learn whether
any adjustment program is applicable to your vehicle. Please have your
vehicle identification number available.
DO WARRANTIES APPLY IN OTHER COUNTRIES?
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty and the Emissions Warranties
described in this booklet apply to your vehicle if:
• it was originally purchased through the Ford Export Operations
Military Sales Program; or
• it was originally sold or leased by Ford Motor Company or one of its
dealers in the United States or U.S Federalized Territories; and it was
originally registered/licensed and operated in the United States, U.S.
Federalized Territories, or Canada.
If you meet either of these two requirements, you do have warranty
coverage when you travel with this vehicle outside the United States,
U.S. Federalized Territories, or Canada. In some cases, however, you may
have to pay the servicing Lincoln or Ford dealer in a foreign country or
U.S. Federalized Territory for a repair that is covered under the U.S.
warranty. If this happens, be sure to save the paid repair order or
invoice. You should present this document to a U.S. Lincoln or Ford
dealer for warranty refund consideration.
Refer to www.Ford.com for additional global customer assistance
reference information.

3. The New Vehicle Limited Warranty for your
2018-model vehicle
LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS
All of the warranties in this booklet are subject to the following
limitations and disclaimers:
The warranties in this booklet are the only express warranties
applicable to your vehicle. Ford does not assume or authorize anyone
to assume for it any other obligation or liability in connection with
your vehicle or these warranties. No person, including Ford employees
or dealers, may modify or waive any part of these warranties.
Ford and its dealers reserve the right to make changes in or additions
to vehicles built or sold by them at any time without incurring any
obligation to make the same or similar changes or additions to
vehicles previously built or sold.
Ford and its dealers also reserve the right to provide post-warranty
repairs, conduct recalls, or extend the warranty coverage period for
certain vehicles or vehicle populations, at the sole discretion of Ford.
The fact that Ford has provided such measures to a particular vehicle
or vehicle population in no way obligates Ford to provide similar
accommodations to other owners of similar vehicles.
As a condition of these warranties, you are responsible for properly
using, maintaining, and caring for your vehicle as outlined in your
Owner’s Manual. Ford recommends that you maintain copies of all
maintenance records and receipts for review by Ford.
Ford and your dealer are not responsible for any time or income that
you lose, any inconvenience you might be caused, the loss of your
transportation or use of your vehicle, the cost of rental vehicles, fuel,
telephone, travel, meals, or lodging, the loss of personal or commercial
property, the loss of revenue, or for any other incidental or
consequential damages you may have.
7
Punitive, exemplary, or multiple damages may not be recovered unless
applicable law prohibits their disclaimer.
You may not bring any warranty-related claim as a class
representative, a private attorney general, a member of a class of
claimants or in any other representative capacity.
Ford shall not be liable for any damages caused by delay in delivery or
furnishing of any products and/or services.
You may have some implied warranties. For example, you may have an
implied warranty of merchantability (that the car or light truck is
reasonably fit for the general purpose for which it was sold) or an
implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose (that the car or
light truck is suitable for your special purposes), if a special purpose
was specifically disclosed to Ford itself not merely to the dealer
before your purchase, and Ford itself not just the dealer told you the
vehicle would be suitable for that purpose.
These implied warranties are limited, to the extent allowed by law, to
the time period covered by the written warranties, or to the applicable
time period provided by state law, whichever period is shorter.
These implied warranties do not apply at all if you use your vehicle
for business or commercial purposes. In addition, the implied warranty
of fitness for a particular purpose does not apply if your vehicle is
used for racing, even if the vehicle is equipped for racing.
The warranties contained in this booklet and all questions regarding
their enforceability and interpretation are governed by the law of the
state in which you purchased your vehicle. Some states do not allow
Ford to limit how long an implied warranty lasts or to exclude or limit
incidental or consequential damages, so the limitation and exclusions
described above may not apply to you.
NOTE: This information about the limitation of implied
warranties and the exclusion of incidental and consequential
damages under the NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY also
applies to the EMISSIONS WARRANTIES described on pages
20-32.
8
Ford participates in the BBB AUTO LINE warranty dispute resolution
program. You may contact BBB AUTO LINE by calling 800-955-5100.
You are required to submit your warranty dispute to the BBB AUTO
LINE before exercising rights or seeking remedies under the Federal
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, 15 U.S.C. § 2301 et seq. To the extent
permitted by the applicable state ‘‘Lemon Law’’, you are also required
to submit your warranty dispute to the BBB AUTO LINE before
exercising any rights or seeking remedies under the ‘‘Lemon Law’’. If
you choose to seek remedies that are not created by the
Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act or the applicable state ‘‘Lemon Law,’’
you are not required to first use BBB AUTO LINE to resolve your
dispute – although the program is still available to you.
For more information regarding the BBB AUTO LINE program, see
page 34 of this booklet.

QUICK REFERENCE: WARRANTY COVERAGE
This chart gives a general summary of your warranty coverage provided
by Ford Motor Company under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Please refer to the description of warranty coverage for more specific
information.
For each type of coverage, the chart shows two measures:
• years in service
• miles driven
The measure that occurs first determines how long your coverage lasts.
For example: Your Bumper to Bumper Coverage lasts for four years unless you drive more than 50,000 miles before four years elapse. In that
case, your coverage ends at 50,000 miles.
For more details on coverage, see:
➡ What is Covered? (pages 10-12)
➡ What is Not Covered? (pages 14-17)
10
WHAT IS COVERED?
Your NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY gives you specific legal
rights. You may have other rights that vary from state to state. Under
your New Vehicle Limited Warranty if:
- your Lincoln vehicle is properly operated and maintained, and
- was taken to an authorized dealership for a warranted repair during the
warranty period,
then the authorized dealer will, without charge, repair, replace, or adjust
all parts on your vehicle that malfunction or fail during normal use
during the applicable coverage period due to a manufacturing defect in
factory-supplied materials or factory workmanship.
This warranty does not mean that each Lincoln vehicle is defect free.
Defects may be unintentionally introduced into vehicles during the
design and manufacturing processes and such defects could result in the
need for repairs. Ford provides the New Vehicle Limited Warranty only
to remedy manufacturing defects that result in vehicle part malfunction
or failure during the warranty period.
The remedy under this written warranty, and any implied warranty, is
limited to repair, replacement, or adjustment of defective parts. This
exclusive remedy shall not be deemed to have failed its essential purpose
so long as Ford, through its authorized dealers, is willing and able to
repair, replace, or adjust defective parts in the prescribed manner. Ford’s
liability, if any, shall in no event exceed the cost of correcting
manufacturing defects as herein provided and upon expiration of this
warranty, any such liability shall terminate.
Conditions that are not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty are
described on pages 14-17. When making warranty repairs on your vehicle,
the dealer will use Ford or Motorcraft parts or remanufactured or other parts
that are authorized by Ford, at the discretion of Ford or the dealership.
Nothing in this warranty should be construed as requiring defective parts
to be replaced with parts of a different type or design than the original
part, so long as the vehicle functions properly with the replacement part.
Moreover, Ford and its authorized dealers are entitled to a reasonable
time and a reasonable number of attempts within which to diagnose and
repair any defect covered by this warranty.
11
In certain instances, Ford may authorize repairs at other than Lincoln or
Ford dealer facilities.
Two separate warranties apply to tires on your new vehicle. The New
Vehicle Limited Warranty covers tire defects in factory supplied material
or workmanship for 100% of labor costs and on a pro rata adjustment
basis for parts. (See the reimbursement schedule below).
For vehicles within the New Vehicle Limited Warranty time in service
and mileage coverage period, defective tires will be replaced on a pro
rata adjustment basis according to the following mileage-based
Reimbursement Schedule:
MILES DRIVEN
1-12,000
12,001-24,000
24,001-36,000
36,001-50,000
PERCENT OF PARTS COVERED BY FORD
100%
60%
30%
15%
The tire manufacturer also provides you with a separate tire warranty that
may extend beyond the New Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage. You will
find the manufacturer’s tire warranty with the owner literature supplied
with your vehicle. You have the option of having a tire warranty repair
performed by the tire manufacturer’s authorized service center. If you go to
a tire service center for a repair covered by the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty, you may be charged a prorated amount for wear or other
charges. If so, you should present your paid invoice detailing the nature of
the charges to any Lincoln or Ford dealership for refund consideration.
When making warranty repairs on your vehicle, the dealer will use Ford or
Motorcraft parts or remanufactured or other parts that are authorized by
Ford. In certain instances, Ford may authorize repairs at other than
Lincoln or Ford dealer facilities. Tire replacements under warranty will be
made with the same brand and model as originally equipped with the
vehicle unless the same brand and model is no longer available, in which
case a tire of the same brand, size, load, speed and tread type will be used.
In some circumstances, Ford may authorize another brand and/or model to
substitute for the original brand and model, even if still available.
Normal tire wear or damage is not reimbursable. See page 16 for details
of what is not covered.
12
Extended warranty coverage periods are available for certain
vehicle parts and conditions. Specifically,
(1) Your vehicle’s Powertrain components are covered for six years or
70,000 miles, whichever occurs first. The extended coverage applies to the
Engine: all internal lubricated parts, cylinder block, cylinder heads,
electrical fuel pump, powertrain control module, engine mounts, flywheel,
injection pump, manifold (exhaust and intake), manifold bolts, oil pan, oil
pump, seals and gaskets, engine thermostat, engine thermostat housing,
timing chain cover, timing chain (gears or belt), turbocharger/supercharger
unit, valve covers, water pump; Transmission: all internal parts, clutch
cover, seals and gaskets, torque converter, transfer case (including all
internal parts), transmission case, transmission mounts; Front-Wheel
Drive: axle shafts, front bearings, seals and gaskets, universal and
constant velocity joints; Rear-Wheel Drive: axle shafts, bearings (front
and rear), center support bearing, drive axle housing (including all
internal parts), drive shaft, retainers, supports, seals and gaskets, universal
and constant velocity joints. Four-wheel/All-Wheel Drive: axle shafts,
bearings (front and rear), center support bearing, drive shafts, final drive
housing (including all internal parts), hubs-automatic front locking
(four-wheel drive), locking rings (four-wheel drive), seals and gaskets,
universal and constant velocity joints.
(2) Your vehicle’s safety belts and air bag Supplemental Restraint (SRS)
are covered for an extended Safety Restraint Coverage Period, which
lasts for five years or 60,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
(3) Your vehicle’s body sheet metal panels are covered for an extended
Corrosion Coverage Period, which lasts for five years, regardless of miles
driven. The extended warranty coverage only applies if a body sheet
metal panel becomes perforated due to corrosion during normal use due
to a manufacturing defect in factory-supplied materials or factory
workmanship. If aluminum body panels have corrosion or rust damage,
and the damage is not the result of abnormal usage, vehicle accident,
customer actions and/or extreme environmental conditions, the corrosion
or rust damage repairs are covered for 5 years, unlimited miles. For
damage caused by airborne material (environmental fallout) where there
is no factory-related defect involved and therefore no warranty − our
policy is to provide free repair of paint damage due to the airborne
material for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever occurs first.
13
WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE NEW VEHICLE LIMITED
WARRANTY?
Damage Caused By:

installed part fails or causes a Ford part to fail. Examples include, but
are not limited to lift kits, oversized tires, roll bars, cellular phones,
alarm systems, automatic starting systems and performance-enhancing
powertrain components or software and performance “chips”.
Your vehicle may allow, enable or facilitate the use of certain non-Ford
Motor Company software. Ford is not responsible for the functionality
of such software. Ford may disallow, discontinue or modify your ability
to use such software at any time without prior notification or incurring
any warranty or other obligation. Non-Ford Motor Company software
may be governed by End User License Agreement or warranty
provided by the software provider. For Ford Motor Company software
see End User License Agreement found in the Owner Manual.
14
Damage Caused by Use and/or the Environment
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover surface rust,

to the elements.

• unauthorized, unapproved and/or incompatible repairs, upgrades and
modification
• the defective function or obsolescence of your cellular phone or digital
media device (for example, inadequate signal reception by the
external antenna, viruses or other software problems)
16
Other Items or Conditions Not Covered
The New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover:
• vehicles that have had the odometer disconnected, altered, or
inoperative for an extended period of time with the result that the
actual mileage cannot be determined
• vehicles that have ever been labeled or branded as “dismantled“,
“fire“, “flood“, “junk“, “rebuilt“, “reconstructed“, or “salvaged“; this will
void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
• vehicles that have been determined to be a ⬙total loss⬙ by an insurance
company; this will void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
• Aftermarket parts or components, sometimes installed by Ford Motor
Company or an authorized dealership, may not be covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. Any damage caused to Ford components

5. Federal requirements for emissions warranties
QUICK REFERENCE: EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE
This chart shows your warranty coverage under two emissions warranties
that Ford Motor Company provides, in compliance with Federal
requirements. The warranties are:
• Emissions Defects Warranty
• Emissions Performance Warranty
For full details on emissions control coverage, see:
➡ Emissions Defect Warranty (page 21)
➡ Emissions Performance Warranty (page 22)
➡ What is Covered? (pages 23-24)
➡ What is Not Covered? (page 24)
20
Emissions Defect Warranty Coverage
During the warranty coverage period, Ford Motor Company warrants that:
• your vehicle is designed, built, and equipped to meet - at the time it is
sold - the emissions regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
• your vehicle is free from emissions-related defects in factory-supplied
materials or workmanship, which are defects that could prevent the
vehicle or engine from conforming with applicable EPA regulations.
• you will not be charged for diagnosis, repair, replacement, or
adjustment of parts containing an emissions-related defect. A list of
emissions-related parts can be found in What is Covered? on
pages 23-24.
The emissions defects warranty coverage period for passenger cars and
light duty trucks (applies to vehicles up to 8,500 pounds GVWR is as
follows:
• 8 years or 80,000 miles (whichever occurs first) for catalytic
converters, electronic emissions control unit, and onboard emissions
diagnostic devices.
• 2 years or 24,000 miles (whichever occurs first) for all other covered
parts. (NOTE: Lincoln’s 4-year, 50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper

EXPLANATION OF CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS WARRANTIES
Your Warranty Rights and Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and Ford Motor Company are
pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your
2018-model vehicle. In California, new motor vehicles must be designed,
built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards.
Ford must warrant the emission control system on your vehicle for the
periods of time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect
or improper maintenance of your vehicle.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor
or fuel injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter, and
engine computer. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and
other emissions-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Ford Motor Company will repair
your vehicle at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts and labor.

Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
For Vehicles Eligible for California Emissions Warranty Coverage if Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating is 14,000 lbs. or less:
For 3 years or 50,000 miles (whichever first occurs):
1. If your vehicle fails a Smog Check inspection, all necessary repairs and
adjustments will be made by Ford to ensure that your Lincoln passes the
inspection. This is your emission control system PERFORMANCE
WARRANTY.

scheduled maintenance.
You are responsible for presenting your vehicle to a Lincoln dealer as
soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a
reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
As the vehicle owner, you should also be aware that Ford Motor Company

7. Additional information about your emissions warranty
coverage, under Federal and California requirements
HOW DO I GET WARRANTY SERVICE?
To get service under your emission warranties, take your vehicle to any
Lincoln dealer as soon as possible after illumination of the Malfunction
Indicator Light or it has failed an EPA-approved test or a California Smog
Check inspection. Be sure to show the dealer the document that says
your vehicle has failed the test.
Your dealer will determine whether the repair is covered by the warranty. If
the dealer has a question about Emissions Performance Warranty coverage,
it will forward the question to Ford Motor Company, which must make a
final decision within 30 days after you bring your vehicle in for repair. (The
decision will be made within a shorter time if state, local, or federal law
requires you to have the vehicle repaired more quickly in order to avoid
additional penalties.) The deadline for a determination about Emissions
Performance Warranty Coverage does not need to be met if you request a
delay, agree to a delay in writing, or if the delay is caused by an event for
which neither Ford Motor Company nor your dealer is responsible.
If a question about Emissions Performance Warranty coverage is referred
to Ford Motor Company, you will be notified by Ford Motor Company in
writing if your claim for warranty coverage is denied. The notice will
explain the basis for denying your claim. If you fail to receive this notice
within a timely manner, as determined above, Ford Motor Company will
perform the warranty repair for you free of charge.
You will be notified by Ford Motor Company in writing if your claim for
warranty coverage is denied. The notice will explain the basis for
denying your claim. If you fail to receive this notice, Ford Motor
Company will perform the warranty repair for you free of charge.
HOW DO I HANDLE EMERGENCY REPAIRS?
If your vehicle needs an emergency warrantable repair and an authorized
dealer is not available, or if an authorized dealer cannot perform
warrantable repair(s) within 30 days of you bringing your vehicle to the
dealer, repairs may be performed at any service establishment or by you
using Ford equivalent replacement parts.
Ford Motor Company will reimburse you for the cost of these warranty
repairs including diagnosis, if you take the part(s) that are replaced and the
31
repair receipt(s) to a Lincoln or Ford dealer. The reimbursement shall not
exceed Ford’s suggested retail price for the warranted parts that are
replaced and labor charges based on Ford’s recommended time allowance
for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate hourly rate.
WHAT REPLACEMENT PARTS SHOULD I USE?
Ford Motor Company recommends that you use genuine Ford
replacement parts. However, when you are having non-warranty work
done on your vehicle, you may choose to use non-Ford parts.
If you decide to use non-Ford parts, be sure they are equivalent to Ford
parts in performance, quality, and durability. If you use replacement
parts that are not equivalent to Ford parts, your vehicle’s emissions
control systems may not work as effectively, and you may jeopardize
your emissions warranty coverage.
For vehicles within the warranty period, Ford Motor Company will repair at
no cost to the owner, under the Federal Emissions Warranty, covered
emission failures caused by properly installed Ford parts or non-Ford parts
that have been “certified” by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA). Ford is not responsible for the cost of repairing any emission failures
caused by non-Ford parts that have not been ‘‘certified’’ by the EPA.
The maintenance, replacement, or repair of emissions control
devices or systems can be performed by any automotive repair
establishment or individual using Ford replacement parts or
EPA-certified parts without voiding your Federal Warranty
coverage for future repairs during the warranty period.
PROPER MAINTENANCE PRESERVES YOUR WARRANTY
If you do not maintain your vehicle properly, Ford Motor Company may
have the right to deny you warranty coverage.
To have repairs made under this warranty, you may have to show that
you have followed Ford’s instructions on properly maintaining and using
your vehicle. You will find these instructions in your Owner’s Manual.
Be sure to save your service receipts and to keep accurate records of all
maintenance work.

10. State warranty enforcement laws
These state laws - sometimes called “lemon laws” - allow owners to
receive a replacement vehicle or a refund of the purchase price, under
certain circumstances. The laws vary from state to state.
To the extent your state law allows, Ford Motor Company requires that
you first send us a written notification of any defects or non-conformities
that you have experienced with your vehicle. (This will give us the
opportunity to make any needed repairs before you pursue the remedies
provided by your state’s law.)
In other states, where not specifically required by state law, Ford Motor
Company requests that you give us the written notice.
Send your written notification to:
