For many drivers around Sheboygan, purchasing extra protection after their initial warranty has ended is an essential part of the car-buying process.

Review our service tips below to explore all of the beneficial Ford Extended Service Contract plans with Van Horn Automotive Group and award yourself with peace of mind on Plymouth roads!

Ford Extended Service Plans

There are four available Ford Extended Service Plans, each one increasing in price and covering more components of your new Ford vehicle:

  • PowertrainCARE: With this plan, 29 components of your Ford will be covered within the engine, transmission, rear-wheel drive, and front-wheel drive systems. Although some components within these systems will not be covered, all of the major ones are. For example, the radiator is not covered for the engine, and the bearings are not covered with the drivetrain systems.
  • BaseCARE: The BaseCARE Service Plan bumps you up to 84 covered components. This includes the same components as the PowertrainCARE plan, as well as steering, brakes, front suspension, A/C and heating, and electrical components. Again, certain aspects will not be covered, such as the anti-lock brake module. 
  • ExtraCARE: You’ll get 113 covered components with this Ford Extended Service Contract. That will include everything you’ve seen in the above plans, with the addition of coverage for your tech and convenience features. You’ll appreciate having this coverage as it accounts for all the essentials, such as your keyless entry and power window motors. It does not, however, cover more advanced technologies like Ford SYNC® or rain-sensing wipers.
  • PremiumCARE: The PremiumCARE plan covers over 1,000 components of your Ford. This means that pretty much everything not covered in the other three plans will be covered with PremiumCARE. Peace of mind on Milwaukee commutes will be yours for the taking! 

If you’re looking for an environmentally friendly vehicle, you can shop with Ford and get the protection you desire! The Ford Extended Service Contract plans extend to the electrified line, offering four distinct coverage options: BaseCARE EV, ExtraCARE EV, PremiumCARE EV, and PremiumCARE Plus EV. These plans cover 84 components (Base), 113 components (Extra), and 1,000+ components (Premium and Premium Plus).
