The Lincoln Motor Company (Lincoln) warrants that their authorized dealers will repair, replace or adjust those parts on Lincoln vehicles, that are found to be defective in materials or workmanship made or supplied by Ford for the coverage periods described in the Warranty Information section of this warranty guide. You must take your vehicle to an authorized Lincoln, Ford Lincoln or Ford dealer for warranty repairs. While any Lincoln, Ford Lincoln or Ford dealer handling your vehicle line will provide warranty service, we strongly encourage you to return to your selling dealer. Certain customer benefits such as loaner vehicles and car washes are not part of your New Vehicle Limited Warranty but may be offered as a courtesy by your selling Lincoln dealership. 6 Please note that certain warranty repairs require special training and/or equipment, so not all dealers are authorized to perform all warranty repairs. This means that, depending on the warranty repair needed, you may have to take your vehicle to another Lincoln dealer. In certain instances, Lincoln may authorize that your vehicle be repaired at a repair centre other than a Lincoln, Ford Lincoln or Ford dealer facility. A reasonable time must be allowed to perform a repair after taking your vehicle to the dealership. Repairs will be made using Lincoln, Ford or Motorcraft® Parts, or remanufactured or other parts that are authorized by Lincoln. Warranty Information WHO PAYS FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS? WHEN DOES THE WARRANTY BEGIN? Lincoln of Canada covers the cost of warranty repairs performed under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty Coverage during the “time and distance travelled” limits of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. The warranty begins on the original retail delivery date, or on the date of first use (whichever occurs first). This is the “original warranty start date”. Federal or provincial governments may require an environmental or disposal tax (levy) on all or a portion of a warranty repair, in which case this tax (levy) must be paid by you, the owner of the vehicle. 7 BASIC COVERAGE Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, Basic Coverage begins at the original warranty start date and lasts for 48 months or 80,000 kilometres (whichever occurs first). The complete vehicle is covered under this Basic Coverage, except components listed under the following warranties in this Warranty Guide, and those items listed under “What is Not Covered Under this New Vehicle Limited Warranty?” on page 15. Warranty Information HYBRID UNIQUE COMPONENT COVERAGE LINCOLN ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE 1-800-387-9333 Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, the following components are covered against defects in factory supplied materials or workmanship for 8 years or 160,000 kilometres whichever occurs first from the original warranty start date: high-voltage battery, DC/DC convertor, continuously variable transmission, high-voltage battery connector, battery pack fan assembly, battery energy control module (BECM), charger fan, service disconnect and inverter system controller (ISC). Your vehicle is eligible, within Canada or the continental United States, for the Lincoln Roadside Assistance Program. This program is separate from the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, begins from the original warranty start date and lasts the life of the vehicle for the original owner. Subsequent owners receive coverage that is concurrent with the 6 years or 110,000 kilometres (whichever occurs first) powertrain warranty coverage period. 8 Further, towing required because of a warrantable failure beyond the 6 years or 110,000 kilometres (whichever occurs first) powertrain coverage is covered under any remaining applicable New Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage. Please refer to the Lincoln Roadside Assistance section of this warranty guide for complete details (page 27). Warranty Information CORROSION COVERAGE Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, 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 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 kilometres (whichever occurs first). See “Damage Caused by Use or the Environment”, page 16. (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 airborne materials, the corrosion coverage is 48 months or 80,000 kilometres (whichever occurs first). 9 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. Warranty Information POWERTRAIN COVERAGE Under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty, the Powertrain Warranty Coverage covers certain components against defects in factory-supplied materials or workmanship for 6 years or 110,000 kilometres (whichever occurs first) from the original warranty start date.

You may have other rights which may vary by province. None of the following limitations and exclusions shall apply where prohibited or voided by provincial consumer protection legislation, and without limitation none of the following limitations and exclusions will exclude or restrict the warranty provided for in Section 37 or 38 of the Quebec Consumer Protection Act. The foregoing express warranties are in substitution for and exclude all other liabilities of any kind whether arising under statute, in tort, by implication of law or otherwise including, to the full extent as may be allowed by law, liability for any other representations respecting the vehicle, statutory warranties or implied warranties or conditions as to its merchantability or fitness. Any implied warranty or condition as to merchantability or fitness is limited to the applicable warranty duration period as specified herein. In no event shall Lincoln or the selling dealer be liable for the loss of or damage to the vehicle or its parts, loss of use of the vehicle, loss of time, inconvenience, commercial loss, or special consequential or other damages, or on any other claims relating to or arising from any defect in factory materials or workmanship found except as provided for herein. The above provisions do not preclude the operation of any applicable provincial statute which in certain circumstances may not allow some of the limitations and exclusions described in these warranty coverages. 21 In the province of Saskatchewan, the duration of the applicable statutory warranties of that province shall be concurrent with and not consecutive to the duration of the foregoing coverage of this Lincoln New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Warranty Information INSPECT YOUR NEW VEHICLE CAREFULLY Defects or damage to paint, sheet metal or other appearance items may occur during assembly or when the vehicle is in transit to the dealer. Normally, these defects are noted and corrected at the factory or by your dealer during new vehicle inspection. Paint, sheet metal or appearance defects present at the time your vehicle is delivered to you are covered by this warranty. For your protection, we suggest that if you do find any such defects, you notify your dealer within one week of the vehicle’s delivery to you, as normal deterioration due to use and exposure is not covered by this warranty. Defects vs. Damage Please note the distinction between “defects” and “damage” as used in the warranty. Defects are covered because we, the manufacturer, are responsible. This includes defects in Lincoln-supplied parts used in making warranty repairs as well as in the original parts of the vehicle. On the other hand, we have no control over damage caused by such things as modifications, collision, misuse and lack of maintenance. Therefore, damage is not covered under this warranty. TAKE CARE OF YOUR VEHICLE AND IT WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU! Proper maintenance protects you from major repair expense resulting from neglect or inadequate maintenance, and it may even help increase the resale value of your vehicle. Your dealership has factory-trained technicians who can perform the required maintenance using Lincoln-approved parts. The dealership looks forward to meeting your every service need to maximize your satisfaction with your vehicle. It is your responsibility to make sure that all of the scheduled maintenance is performed and that the materials used meet Lincoln engineering specifications. Failure to perform scheduled maintenance as specified in the Scheduled Maintenance section in your Owner’s Manual will invalidate warranty coverage on parts affected by improper maintenance. Make sure 22 Warranty Information that receipts for completed maintenance work are retained with the vehicle and have the dealer complete the Scheduled Maintenance Validation Record.

The CAMVAP program is a straightforward and relatively speedy alternative to resolve a disagreement when all other efforts to produce a settlement have failed. This procedure is without cost to you and is designed to eliminate the need for lengthy and expensive legal proceedings. In the CAMVAP program, impartial third-party arbitrators conduct hearings at mutually convenient times and places in an informal environment. These impartial arbitrators review the positions of the parties, make decisions and, where appropriate, render awards to resolve disputes. CAMVAP decisions are fast, fair and final as the arbitrator’s award is binding on both you and Lincoln. The CAMVAP services are available in all Canadian territories and provinces. For more information, charge or obligation, call your CAMVAP provincial administrator directly at 1-800-207-0685 or visit www.camvap.ca. 25 Important Owner Information LOG ON TO WWW.LINCOLNCANADA.COM The Lincoln Motor Company’s website contains information for you, the new vehicle owner.
