What is the Ford Warranty on Corrosion and Perforation?

If any part of the original bodywork of the vehicle is perforated by rust corrosion, the panel(s) affected by the perforation will be repaired or replaced by any Ford Authorised Repairer, completely free of charge, regardless of any change in vehicle ownership.

Note: The term 'perforation' means a hole that penetrates through the bodywork caused by corrosion from the inside or underside as a result of faulty manufacture.

Note: The term 'bodywork' does not include road wheels and attachments such as bright trim, bumpers, mouldings and hinges. The 'Load Platform' installed on the Ford Transit is also excluded.

Regular inspections must be carried out in line with requirements set out in the vehicles Service Portfolio. Should you fail to have inspections or timely repairs carried out, this will affect the remainder of the cover of the paint surface and perforation warranty.

Note: For model years 2023+ the Service Portfolio can be downloaded from the Owner's Manual page.
