Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, Basic Coverage begins at the original warranty start date and lasts for 48 months or 80,000 km (whichever occurs first).

The complete vehicle is covered under this Basic Coverage. Components not covered are listed in the Warranty Guide, under What is Not Covered Under this New Vehicle Limited Warranty.  See your Warranty Guide for complete details.

Corrosion coverage begins at the original warranty start date and covers body sheet metal panels against corrosion due to a defect in factory-supplied materials and workmanship. The length of the coverage depends on the type of corrosion damage:

• If corrosion causes perforations (holes) in the body sheet metal panels, the coverage extends for 5 years/unlimited distance.

• If corrosion does not cause perforations (holes), and is not the result of vehicle usage and/or airborne materials, the Corrosion Coverage is 48 months or 80,000 km (whichever occurs first). If your vehicle is damaged due to airborne materials (environmental fallout) where there is no defect in factory-supplied materials or workmanship and therefore no applicable Lincoln warranty, Lincoln will still cover paint damage due to airborne materials (environmental fallout) for 12 months or 20,000 kilometers, whichever occurs first). See Damage Caused by Use and/or the Environment.

Aluminum body panel corrosion coverage

Your vehicle’s aluminum body sheet metal panels, if any, are covered for an extended Corrosion Coverage Period, which lasts for five years, regardless of distance driven. 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, regardless of distance driven.

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 20,000 kilometers, whichever occurs first.

Under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, the Powertrain Warranty Coverage protects certain components against defects in factory-supplied materials or workmanship for 6 years or 110,000 km (whichever occurs first) from the original warranty start date.

Powertrain Warranty covers certain components of your Engine, Transmission, Front, Rear and All-Wheel drive systems.

Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, safety belts and air bag Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) are covered against defects in factory-supplied materials or workmanship.

Safety Restraint System Coverage begins on the original warranty start date and lasts for 5 years or 100,000 km (whichever occurs first).

Examples of other items that are not covered are:

• Non-Lincoln parts of your vehicle including Non-Lincoln parts that are installed by body builders or manufacturers other than Lincoln; or damage to Lincoln components caused by installation of Non-Lincoln parts

• Disconnecting or altering the odometer, or where the actual distance travelled cannot be determined due to the odometer being inoperative for an extended period of time (this will void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty)

• Vehicles determined to be a “total loss” by an insurance company (this will void the New Vehicle Limited Warranty)

If your vehicle is equipped with SYNC⁶ , the New Vehicle Limited Warranty does not cover repairs or replacement under certain conditions. Some examples include:

• Loss of personal recording media, software or data

• Damage caused by abnormal use such as insertion of foreign objects, unauthorized modification, or the defective function of your cellular phone or digital media device

The foregoing coverage described in the New Vehicle Limited Warranty are the only express warranties on the part of Lincoln Motor Company and the selling retailer. You may have other rights which may vary by province.

In the province of Québec, none of the following limitations and exclusions will exclude or restrict the warranty provided for in Section 37 or 38 of the Québec Consumer Protection Act.

The warranty draws a distinction between “defects” and “damage”. Defects includes deficiencies in Lincoln-supplied parts used in making warranty repairs as well as in the original parts of the vehicle.

These are covered because we, the manufacturer, are responsible. Damage on the other hand, caused by such things as modifications, collision, misuse and lack of maintenance is not covered under this warranty.
