Please let me know if you accept the warranty from: Automotive Warranty Solutions? Is this a good company to deal with? Does Beshore & Koller Ford have good feedback on this program and their payment schedule?
Great questions!
The Ford Extended Service Plan (ESP) is the only Ford extended warranty backed by the strength and stability of Ford Motor Company. There are many after-market extended service contracts to choose from -- and they're not all the same. Some border on fraudulent. There's only one genuine Ford ESP. Ford ESP is a comprehensive Extended Service Contract that complements your factory limited warranty. It takes the worry out of your ownership experience, worrying about an unexpected repair bill, that is! You can find out more information about the Ford ESP here.
Please contact us directly for information on other after market warranty plans.
