What the Dealer Will Do?
At no charge to you, your dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the electronic engine control processor on your car according to the instructions provided by Ford.

This service should have little or no effect on your car except to reduce air pollutants.

If you do not have this service done,
- Your emissions warranty may be reduced,
- Your car may not pass emissions or smog tests that may be required in your area.

How Long Will It Take?
