It’s a horrible feeling when you look at your Ford after an accident and wonder if it will ever look the same again. But the good news is that it will, as long as you choose a repairer who uses only Ford Original Parts.

However bad the damage might look right now, if your Ford is repairable then a repair with Ford Original Parts will soon have it looking just as good as before.

The fit and finish will be perfect, with no odd gaps between panels or breaks in the styling lines. And because you’ve used Ford Original Parts, Ford will honour your Ford Corrosion Protection Warranty exactly as they would have done before the repair.

You might even benefit when the time comes to sell your Ford, because the repair with Ford Original Parts might have a positive effect on the resale value.

Ford Original Parts don’t just protect your investment. They protect you, your passengers and pedestrians too.

Take the new S-MAX, for example. Its Ford Original Parts are tested not only for their individual performance in a collision, but also for their collision performance as part of the whole vehicle: providing driver, passenger and pedestrian protection in the event of an accident.

What makes Ford Original Parts every bit as good as the factory-fitted parts they’re replacing is the fact that they’re identical.

They’re designed by Ford to the original specifications, with the same narrow tolerances and to the same high standards. They’re manufactured on the same production line as the factory-fitted items. And they’re tested to meet the same strict criteria.

But fortunately you don’t have to wait for another collision to prove that Ford Original Parts have been used for your collision repair. Instead, you can simply look for the highly visible Ford trademark that you will find on most Ford Original collision parts. Then you’ll know that your Ford has been repaired as if the accident never happened.
