SEOCONTENT-START************************************************************************************************************** Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company David J. Johnson Ford Motor Company Director P. O. Box 1904 Service Engineering Operations Dearborn, Michigan 48121 Ford Customer Service Division September 3, 2019 TO: All U.S. Ford and Lincoln Dealers SUBJECT: Safety Recall 19S01 – Supplement #3 Certain 2005-2014 Mustang, 2005-2006 GT, 2007-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion and MKZ/Zephyr, 2006-2011 Milan, and 2007-2010 Edge and MKX Vehicles Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement REF: Safety Recall 16S26 – Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement Safety Recall 17S01 – Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement Safety Recall 18S01 – Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement This safety recall supersedes safety recalls 16S26, 17S01, and 18S01 and includes additional affected vehicles. Dealers should review the Dealer Bulletin and attachments in their entirety to become familiar with all changes. NOTE: To allow dealers to be creative in their approach to completing Takata airbag recall repairs, technician time recording requirements, as specified in the Warranty & Policy Manual, are not required for this recall. For examples of creative approaches, refer to the ‘Non-Traditional Repair Approaches’ section in this Bulletin. New! REASON FOR THIS SUPPLEMENT • Effective September 1, 2019, the mobile repair allowance has increased from 0.5 hour to 1.0 hour per repair. Refer to the Mobile Repair Guide attachment for further details on Airbag Recall mobile repairs. NOTE: On Ford GT vehicles, dealers are eligible to claim the $200 special handling allowance for mobile repairs. If FSAs 15S21 and 19S01 are both open, the allowance can be claimed on both FSAs. • Dealers are encouraged to utilize mobile repairs, customer outreach using FSA VIN lists, and other strategies outlined in this Bulletin to help increase completion rates of unrepaired vehicles. FSA VIN lists are being updated with owner phone numbers and email addresses (when available) in early September 2019. See EFC07738 for more details.

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL NHTSA and Takata have determined that the propellant in certain Takata airbag inflators can experience an alteration over time with exposure to certain climate conditions. A combination of time, high temperature  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company fluctuations, and humidity contribute to the degradation of the propellant in the inflators. This degradation can cause the propellant to burn too quickly, creating high pressure inside the inflator, and in extreme cases causing the inflator to rupture in the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment. A ruptured inflator can send inflator parts toward vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death. Additional information regarding Takata recalls can be found at www.nhtsa.gov and www.safercar.gov. SERVICE ACTION Dealers are to replace the passenger airbag inflator or module as directed in the Technical Information attachments. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner. For Mustang and GT vehicles, dealers should check OASIS to determine if safety recall 15S21 is open for the driver side airbag. If safety recall 15S21 is open, then it must be completed in addition to safety recall 19S01. NOTE: This is a final / permanent repair. All 2005-2006 Ford GT vehicles that were previously serviced under Safety Recall 14S28 must have this repair performed. OWNER NOTIFICATION MAILING SCHEDULE For vehicles that were not already recalled under previous FSAs 16S26, 17S01, or 18S01, these owner letters will be mailed in late February 2019. For vehicles that were added to this program, owner letters will be mailed in early March 2019. Dealers must repair any affected vehicles for which repairs are available, whether or not the customer has received a letter. PLEASE NOTE: Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery. New!

NON-TRADITIONAL REPAIR APPROACHES To reduce service department capacity constraints and accommodate additional affected vehicle owners, dealers are encouraged to utilize non-traditional repair strategies such as those listed below. NOTE: For the Takata airbag recall repairs, technician time recording requirements, as specified in the Warranty & Policy Manual, are not required. Claims without recording technician time will be accepted. TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL TRAINING The Takata Airbag Recall Training eLearning course is now available to help train both dealership employees and non-dealership technicians on the Takata airbag recall repairs. See EFC07422 on FMCDealer for details. SPECIALTY WORK AREAS, EMPLOYEES, AND/OR HOURS • Designate certain technicians and/or advisors for recall-only work to load schedules more efficiently and increase completion times through familiarity of the repairs. • Designate and/or repurpose potential work areas. For example, wash bays and vehicle delivery areas may be repurposed during slower hours. Shop areas with large, roll-around tools or other items can be re-organized to accommodate repairs. If weather conditions allow, repairs can also be performed outside. • Utilize evening hours and/or weekends to better accommodate customers and distribute shop workload. AIRBAG ACTION DAY DEALER EVENTS Ford has initiated the Airbag Action Day program to provide dealerships with resources to host a one-day event focused on completing Takata airbag recall repairs. The goal is to raise awareness about the Takata airbag recalls, improve customer satisfaction, and help manage the high volume of recall repairs. Dealers that enroll to host an event will receive a free event kit with signage, games, and other items, as well as assets to help with the promotion of their Airbag Action Day event. Dealers are encouraged to host events on evening hours and/or weekends to better accommodate customers and distribute shop workload. For more information and to enroll, refer to www.FordAirbagActionDay.com. MOBILE REPAIRS Recent market research conducted by Ford, NHTSA, and other automotive manufacturers indicated that many customers have not had their airbag recall repair completed due to the inconvenience of taking their vehicle in for repairs. Most airbag recall repairs are simple and quick enough to be completed at a customer’s house, customer’s workplace, public events, etc. By offering mobile repair services, dealers can: • Increase their customer base by reaching customers that may otherwise not do business with Ford or Lincoln dealerships • Improve customer satisfaction • Free up shop space for retail work Effective September 1, 2019, dealers are eligible to claim 1.0 labor hour per repair to cover costs associated with completing a mobile repair. ROs dated prior to September 1 are eligible for 0.5 hour per repair. Refer to the Mobile Repair Guide attachment for further details on airbag recall mobile repairs. NOTE: Due to a more invasive repair procedure, mobile repair service is not recommended for 2010-2012 Fusion and MKZ, or 2010-2011 Milan vehicles and the mobile repair labor operation cannot be claimed on these vehicles.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ATTACHMENT I Page 3 of 6 Safety Recall 19S01 – Supplement #3 Certain 2005-2014 Mustang, 2005-2006 GT, 2007-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion and MKZ/Zephyr, 2006-2011 Milan, and 2007-2010 Edge and MKX Vehicles Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement NON-TRADITIONAL REPAIR APPROACHES (continued) SUBLET REPAIRS Dealers are encouraged to establish relationships with outside repair facilities, body shops, etc. that the dealer feels are capable of performing quality repairs. The Takata airbag recall repairs may be sublet to outside repair facilities to assist with repair completions. This can be especially helpful to customers in remote areas that may have difficulties traveling to a dealership. Dealers are responsible for providing all required technical information and parts to the facilities to support appropriate completion of the repair. Refer to the Warranty & Policy Manual for details on sublet invoice requirements. NOTE: Claim processing, hazardous material handling, and parts returns must be processed through the dealership’s warranty submission process and parts department. Labor operations published in this bulletin should be claimed, not an OSL amount. EXPRESS SERVICE REPAIRS Dealers with Express Service bays are encouraged to identify slow parts of the day to schedule Takata airbag recall repairs for your Express Service technicians. These straightforward repairs take less than one hour to complete and can reduce unapplied time for hourly Express Service technicians. • Mustang and Ranger vehicles with both airbags affected are ideal for accommodating both technicians. • Repairs on Ford GT, 2010-2012 Fusion and MKZ, and 2010-2011 Milan vehicles are not recommended for Express Service bays. • Use the Takata Airbag Recall Training web course (course number F501101103 in STARS) to help train the technicians on the repairs. Train your appointment coordinators to schedule these vehicles during your slow Express Service times and days. Be sure to keep enough time open in the schedule for walk-in customers requiring maintenance work. QUICK LANE REPAIRS At the dealer’s discretion, dealers with Quick Lanes may now use Quick Lane bays and technicians to perform Takata airbag recall repairs. No other warranty or recall repairs are allowed at Quick Lanes at this time. NOTE: Claim processing, hazardous material handling, and parts returns must be processed through the main dealership’s warranty submission process and parts department. USED CAR LOTS / OTHER FRANCHISES / AUCTION FACILITIES Dealers are encouraged to establish ongoing contacts with local used car lots, non-Ford or Lincoln branded dealerships, independent repair facilities, and local vehicle auctions. Dealers should request that these businesses notify them if they acquire vehicles affected by a Takata airbag recall so the repairs can be completed promptly. Mobile repairs can be performed on-site to accommodate these businesses. FORD GT SPECIAL HANDLING Dealers are authorized to claim up to a maximum combined value of $200 to provide unique services to Ford GT owners under this recall. Examples of potential services include: • Vehicle transportation (towing/flatbed/valet) to and from the dealership • Technician travel to the vehicle’s location for a mobile repair In some cases, $200 may not be sufficient to tow the vehicle to the dealership and redeliver to the customer. Dealers are encouraged to consider mobile repairs at the vehicle’s location in these cases.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ATTACHMENT I Page 4 of 6 Safety Recall 19S01 – Supplement #3 Certain 2005-2014 Mustang, 2005-2006 GT, 2007-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion and MKZ/Zephyr, 2006-2011 Milan, and 2007-2010 Edge and MKX Vehicles Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement RENTAL VEHICLES Parts are available to order for all affected vehicle lines. With proper dealer parts ordering and service appointment scheduling, rental vehicles should not be required to complete the recall repair. Short-term rentals are available if a customer requests a rental vehicle while their vehicle is being repaired. Refer to the flow chart in the Takata Airbag Recall Rental Vehicle Policy attachment for the rental vehicle reimbursement process before providing a rental vehicle. If a customer requests a rental vehicle, dealers must: • order required parts prior to a customer’s appointment. • retain the customer’s vehicle until the recall repair is completed and the rental vehicle is returned. • notify the customer the same day that the recall repair is completed and request that they promptly return the rental vehicle. Rentals exceeding 7 days from the date the customer is notified that their vehicle is repaired, will not be reimbursed. NOTE: The short-term rental vehicle program is an effort to make it easier for customers to have this recall repair completed and should only be offered when a customer requests a rental vehicle. Rental vehicles must not be used to help manage service department scheduling. IMPORTANT: Dealers are pre-approved for up to 4 days of rental reimbursement while repairs are being performed (no approval code required). As most repairs take less than 1 hour to complete, if more than 4 rental days are required, dealers must request prior-approval from the SSSC for any additional days before the initial 4 days expire. In the SSSC web contact, provide details outlining why additional days are required. Refer to the flow chart in the Takata Airbag Recall Rental Vehicle Policy attachment for the full rental vehicle reimbursement process. If the customer has paid for a rental vehicle or alternative transportation for the purpose of this recall, they are eligible for reimbursement within the guidelines outlined in the Takata Airbag Recall Rental Vehicle Policy. Dealers must follow the same process for claiming rental vehicle reimbursement and then refund the customer.

ATTACHMENT III PAGE 1 OF 9 SAFETY RECALL 19S01 CPR © 2019 FORD MOTOR COMPANY DEARBORN, MICHIGAN 48121 01/2019 CERTAIN 2005-2009 MUSTANG VEHICLES — PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENT OVERVIEW NHTSA and Takata have determined that the propellant in certain Takata airbag inflators can experience an alteration over time with exposure to certain climate conditions. A combination of time, high temperature fluctuations, and humidity contribute to the degradation of the propellant in the inflators. This degradation can cause the propellant to burn too quickly, creating high pressure inside the inflator, and in extreme cases causing the inflator to rupture in the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment. A ruptured inflator can send inflator parts toward vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death. Additional information regarding Takata recalls can be found at www.nhtsa.gov and www.safercar.gov. Dealers are to replace the passenger airbag inflator. The serial number from the new airbag inflator must be recorded on the repair order. If the serial number is not readable, a new inflator must be obtained. Place the replaced inflator into the packaging from the new part and provide to the appropriate dealership personnel for part returns. NOTE: For vehicles that have deployed, missing, incompatible, or modified airbags, these situations need to be reviewed by the Special Service Support Center (SSSC). Dealers are eligible for reimbursement to contact the SSSC. Refer to the Deployed, Missing, Incompatible, or Salvage Airbag Handling attachment for details prior to attempting a repair.

IMPORTANT: The parts used in this safety recall may physically appear to be identical, but they have differing operating characteristics. It is crucial that parts are NOT interchanged or substituted. Do not disassemble, modify, or alter the parts or repair procedure in any way. Doing so may prevent the airbag from operating properly during a deployment. WARNING: Failure to follow the instructions and warnings in the Workshop Manual (WSM) may result in injury. NOTE: If the Airbag Readiness light indicates no Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) faults are present, it is not necessary to follow the WSM SRS Depowering and Repowering steps. Turn the ignition to OFF and wait 1 minute, then it is safe to proceed with airbag inflator replacement. NOTE: The ignition must remain OFF until this service procedure is completed.

A combination of time, high temperature fluctuations, and humidity contribute to the degradation of the propellant in the inflators. This degradation can cause the propellant to burn too quickly, creating high pressure inside the inflator, and in extreme cases causing the inflator to rupture in the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment. A ruptured inflator can send inflator parts toward vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death. Additional information regarding Takata recalls can be found at www.nhtsa.gov and www.safercar.gov. Dealers are to replace the passenger airbag module. The serial number from the new airbag module must be recorded on the repair order. If the serial number is not readable, a new module must be obtained. Place the replaced airbag module into the packaging from the new part and provide to the appropriate dealership personnel for part returns. NOTE: For vehicles that have deployed, missing, incompatible, or modified airbags, these situations need to be reviewed by the Special Service Support Center (SSSC). Dealers are eligible for reimbursement to contact the SSSC. Refer to the Deployed, Missing, Incompatible, or Salvage Airbag Handling attachment for details prior to attempting a repair. SERVICE PROCEDURE NOTE: The following repair instructions only apply to 2006-2009 MKZ/Zephyr vehicles. Repair instructions are published in separate attachments for the other vehicle lines included in this recall. IMPORTANT: The parts used in this safety recall may physically appear to be identical, but they have differing operating characteristics. It is crucial that parts are NOT interchanged or substituted. Do not disassemble, modify, or alter the parts or repair procedure in any way. Doing so may prevent the airbag from operating properly during a deployment.

How will I know when parts are available for vehicles affected by this recall? A. Parts are available to order for all affected vehicle lines. Dealers will be notified via a DOES II communication if circumstances warrant a change in part supply strategy and when open ordering begins. Q2. I have not yet received a part that was ordered. What should I do? A. If a part was not placed on emergency order, it may take 3-5 business days to arrive. However, if an emergency order was placed, or a part otherwise is not received, follow these steps: 1. Look up the order information in DOES II or DOW. If there is no record of an order, re-submit the part order. 2. With order information available, contact the Virtual Traffic Office at 800-222-8403 to track the order. NOTE: For supplier-direct-ship parts (Mustang, Ranger, and GT inflators) the VTO cannot view shipment information. Submit a PACO ticket for these vehicles. It is the dealer’s responsibility to submit any shortage/missing parts claims. Q3. Are rental vehicles available for customers? A. Short-term rental vehicles are available if a customer requests one while their vehicle is getting repaired. Refer to the Dealer Bulletin and Takata Airbag Recall Rental Vehicle Policy attachment for full details. Q4. Why did FSA 19S01 replace FSAs 16S26, 17S01, and 18S01? A. The vehicle lines and repair procedures in FSAs 16S26, 17S01, and 18S01 were nearly identical, however the populations were initially launched separately based on model year and geographic zones as directed by Takata’s Consent Order with the NHTSA. FSA 19S01 was the last planned annual expansion that included these common vehicle lines and repair procedures, so FSAs 16S26, 17S01, and 18S01 were combined into FSA 19S01 to simplify dealership claiming and administration of the repairs. Q5. Related damage occurred when performing FSA 16S26, 17S01, or 18S01, but the part was not available. Now that I have the part, how do I claim it? A. Related damage from FSA 16S26, 17S01, or 18S01 can be claimed against the original FSA number. Refer to the ‘Claims Preparation and Submission’ section of the Dealer Bulletin for details. Q6. The airbag inflator/module serial number is not readable or was not documented for claiming. What should I do? A. The new airbag inflator/module serial number is required for warranty claims to be processed. If the serial number is not readable, the part is considered defective and a new inflator/module should be ordered for the vehicle. If the customer has already picked up the vehicle, contact the customer to request that the vehicle be brought in to either (1) inspect the serial number or (2) install a new inflator/module (if serial number is unreadable). If further assistance is required, submit a web contact to the SSSC using contact type “Claiming Concern” with details of the situation.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ATTACHMENT XII Page 2 of 2 Safety Recall 19S01 Certain 2005-2014 Mustang, 2005-2006 GT, 2007-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion and MKZ/Zephyr, 2006-2011 Milan, and 2007-2010 Edge and MKX Vehicles Passenger Airbag Inflator Replacement Q7. A warranty claim was submitted under the wrong VIN. What should I do? A. In OWS, appeal the original claim (against the ‘wrong’ VIN) to a value of ‘0’. Submit a web contact to the SSSC with the ‘wrong’ VIN. Use contact type “Claiming Concern” with details of the situation. Q8. Why is a core charge applied to the parts for this program when that has not been the case on previous Takata recalls? A. This is an effort to make it easier to do business with Ford and reduce the amount of paperwork required for dealers. NOTE: All previously published Takata safety recalls will continue to use the FCS-700 tag process (15S21, 17S42 and 18S02). Q9. A vehicle on my dealer’s FSA VIN list has deployed, modified, or missing airbags. Can the vehicle be removed from my dealer’s FSA VIN list? A. Vehicles that have deployed, missing, or modified airbags need to be reviewed by the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) to ensure the potential risk for airbag inflator rupture is no longer present. Dealers should submit a VIN-specific web contact request to the SSSC with pictures showing the airbag’s state and vehicle’s VIN plate so a determination can be made. Q10. Can my Dealership use Quick Lane bays and Technicians to complete this recall? A. At the dealer’s discretion, dealers with Quick Lanes may now use Quick Lane service bays and Quick Lane technicians to perform Takata Airbag Recalls ONLY.  Claim processing, hazardous material handling and parts returns MUST be processed through the main dealership’s warranty submission process and parts department.  Quick Lanes are authorized to perform Takata Airbag Recalls ONLY. NO other warranty or recall repairs are allowed at Quick Lanes at this time. Q11. Will completed surveys count towards my Customer Viewpoint (CVP) score? Are the scores included in my Ford Commitment Program (FCP) calculations? A. Beginning in 2019, every Service customer will be eligible for a survey. Completed surveys will be included in CVP and FCP scores.

V3  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL MOBILE REPAIR SERVICE A DEALERSHIP GUIDE TO PERFORMING MOBILE REPAIRS A recent survey of vehicle owners indicated that 65% of participants had not had their airbag recall repair completed due to the inconvenience of taking their vehicle to a dealership. Most Takata airbag recall repairs take less than one hour to complete, do not require a lift, and can be completed with basic hand tools. By offering a mobile repair service for these repairs, it can: • Free up shop space for retail work • Increase service capacity without increasing the size of your shop • Improve customer satisfaction • Expand your customer base – many of these customers may have never visited your dealership To perform mobile repairs for the Takata airbag recalls, only a few things are required: • A vehicle for transportation – due to the simplicity of these repairs, a specialty vehicle is not required • Basic hand tools and supplies • A technician with some interpersonal skills (for customer interactions) who is capable of performing the repairs • Personnel to schedule and coordinate the repairs – can likely be combined with current scheduling/dispatching responsibilities • Parts to complete the repairs • A signed customer agreement (see page 8) Dealers should also be aware of local hazardous material handling regulations for airbag inflators and modules. Refer to www.HazmatU.org for further information. See the following pages for detailed tips and recommendations on starting and maintaining a mobile repair service. Mobile repairs can be performed at: • the vehicle owner’s home • the vehicle owner’s workplace • used car lots • local vehicle auctions • shopping malls • sporting events, car shows, or other public events Why?

NEW! WARRANTY CLAIMING Dealers are eligible to claim an allowance per FSA repair to cover costs associated with completing any mobile repairs. • For 2006 Ranger vehicles affected by FSA 18S02, and Ford GT vehicles affected by FSAs 15S21 and/or 19S01, dealers are eligible to claim up to a $200 Handling Allowance per FSA. NOTE: On Ford GT vehicles, if FSAs 15S21 and 19S01 are both open, the $200 allowance can be claimed on both FSA repairs. • For all other mobile repairs, dealers are eligible to claim 1.0 labor hour per FSA repair. A copy of a signed customer agreement must be retained with the repair order. Technician time recording requirements, as specified in the Warranty & Policy Manual, are not required for these repairs. Refer to the FSA Dealer Bulletin for full claiming details. GENERAL RESOURCES PTS Mobile and VIN Scan While it is recommended that technicians have printed copies of repair instructions and FSAs, the PTS mobile site and VIN scan app can be used to access vehicle repair or FSA information if needed. To use PTS mobile and VIN scan on your mobile device: • Enter the mobile PTS Site m.proservicetech.com into your device • Login and select ‘Vehicle ID’ from the PTS Main Menu • Follow the link and instructions to install the VIN scanner app onto your device Airbag Recall App If employees are performing canvassing or operating at public events, the Airbag Recall app can be used to check for open FSAs by entering the vehicle’s license plate number. NOTE: Always use OASIS to confirm FSA eligibility. • Download the Airbag Recall App via Apple App Store or Google Play. Dealer Management System (DMS) Mobile Apps Some dealer management systems and related dealer software have mobile versions. If these are available for your dealer, it may be beneficial for your technician to have access while travelling. Page 5 of 8 V3  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company SCHEDULING When performing repairs at multiple points (homes, workplaces, car lots, etc.), you may want to start small. Pick a day of the week that is expected to be a little slower and fill that day with scheduled mobile repairs – enough for one technician. Keep in mind the time required for travel, paperwork, etc. to ensure your day isn’t overscheduled. The repairs recommended for mobile service all take less than one hour to complete. As time goes on, expand to multiple days, multiple technicians, and fine-tune your scheduling. Depending on your area, and incoming volume of appointment requests for these recalls, you may need to be selective based on the geographical location of the customer/vehicle. Try to plan the schedule so the technician makes one round trip for all repairs, reducing the time, fuel, etc. used driving to and from the dealership. When scheduling, you can take a proactive, or reactive approach: PROACTIVE SCHEDULING AND OUTREACH (RECOMMENDED) For efficiency, pick a certain town or area to operate within on your scheduled mobile repair day, but have some flexibility. Have your Business Development Center, Service Advisor(s), or appointment scheduler(s) contact customers in that designated area using your FSA VIN lists (at least 1 week ahead of time is recommended). TIP: Download the CSV or Excel versions of the VIN lists to combine all Takata airbag recall customers into one document to make this task easier. When speaking with the customer, confirm that they still own the vehicle and that their location on file is accurate. Advise that your dealer will be performing mobile repairs in their area, and that you would be able to repair their vehicle where it sits, and that the repair takes less than an hour. If the customer advises that they work in a different area or are no longer in that location, make note of that for future mobile repair scheduling. Provide the customer with a window of time (e.g. 2-hour window) in which they can expect your technician arrive. Have your technician call or text the customer during their prior stop, before heading the customer’s way. This will ensure that the customer is still available for the repair, and improve customer satisfaction. REACTIVE SCHEDULING During your normal course of business, offer mobile repairs as an alternative if a customer wishes schedule an appointment for their airbag recall repair. This may be more difficult to manage efficiently, but based on your incoming volume, you may still want to limit yourself to a certain geographical area on each scheduled mobile repair day. If a customer calls and is located in the targeted area, let them know that you’ll have a technician in the area next Wednesday (for example) and they would be able to repair the vehicle as it sits, in less than an hour’s time. Provide the customer with a window of time (e.g. 2-hour window) during which they can expect your technician to arrive. Have your technician call or text the customer during their prior stop, before heading the customer’s way. This will ensure the customer is still available for the repair, and improve customer satisfaction. Page 6 of 8 V3  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ROUTE PLANNING Once a full day has been scheduled, plan a round-trip route for the technician, leaving the dealership, making all scheduled stops, and then returning to the dealership. There are numerous free, online services that make planning a route easy, such as MapQuest, Google Maps, RouteXL, etc. See example below. DISPATCHING With repairs scheduled and a route planned, create a route sheet or work order to summarize the day of repairs. See an example on page 7. Along with the work order, the technician should have hard copies of repair orders and repair instructions. Note that for the Takata airbag recall repairs, technician time recording requirements, as specified in the Warranty & Policy Manual, are not required. Claims submitted without recording technician time will be accepted. To evaluate and improve your mobile repair program you may want to keep a driving/time log, but this is not required for warranty purposes.

O. Box 1904 Dearborn, Michigan 48121 Dear Customer, Your dealer is unable to complete the Takata airbag recall repair on your vehicle because the airbag in your vehicle is either deployed, missing, or has incompatible parts installed from a preexisting condition. The Takata airbag recall covers the cost of parts and labor for replacing the defective airbag inflator or module, but not the entire airbag system. Your dealer has verified that the safety risk associated with the airbag inflators, and the reason for this recall, is not currently present on your vehicle. However, because your vehicle’s airbags are either deployed, missing, or have incompatible parts installed, your vehicle’s airbags may not operate as designed in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury or death. You are responsible for the cost of restoring your vehicle’s airbag system. If the recall condition is present once the airbag system is restored, your dealer will replace the airbag inflators free of charge.

RENTAL POLICY OVERVIEW Parts are available to order for all affected vehicle lines. With proper dealer parts ordering and service appointment scheduling, rental vehicles should not be required to complete the recall repair. Short-term rentals are available if a customer requests a rental vehicle while their vehicle is being repaired. Refer to the flow chart on the last page of this attachment for the rental vehicle reimbursement process before providing a rental vehicle. If a customer requests a rental vehicle, dealers must:  order required parts prior to a customer’s appointment.  retain the customer’s vehicle until the recall repair is completed and the rental vehicle is returned.  notify the customer the same day that the recall repair is completed and request that they promptly return the rental vehicle. Rentals exceeding 7 days from the date the customer is notified that their vehicle is repaired, will not be reimbursed. NOTE: The short-term rental vehicle program is an effort to make it easier for customers to have this recall repair completed and should only be offered when a customer requests a rental vehicle. Rental vehicles must not be used to help manage service department scheduling. IMPORTANT: Dealers are pre-approved for up to 4 days of rental reimbursement for while repairs are being performed (no approval code required). As most repairs take less than 1 hour to complete, if more than 4 rental days are required, dealers must request prior-approval from the SSSC for any additional days before the initial 4 days expire. In the SSSC web contact, provide details outlining why additional days are required. Refer to the flow chart on the last page of this attachment for the full rental reimbursement process. If the customer has paid for a rental vehicle or alternative transportation for the purpose of this recall, they are eligible for reimbursement within the guidelines outlined in the Takata Airbag Recall Rental Vehicle Policy. Dealers must follow the same process for claiming rental vehicle reimbursement and then refund the customer. RENTAL VEHICLE SOURCE Rental vehicles may be supplied through dealership owned rental units, the Ford Courtesy Transportation Program, Ford Rent-A-Car, Lincoln Rent-A-Car, or third party rental agencies. If a customer has reserved a rental vehicle on their own or with the assistance of the Customer Relationship Center, the same rental guidelines and processes for requesting reimbursement apply. VEHICLE MAKE AND MODEL YEAR REQUIREMENTS While it is a preference to put Ford customers in Ford rental vehicles and Lincoln customers in Lincoln rental vehicles, this is not always possible and is not a requirement for rental reimbursement under the Takata airbag recalls. Due to varying rental vehicle agency make and model inventory, Ford and Lincoln vehicles may not always be available so it is acceptable to use other make rental vehicles. There are no model year requirements for rental vehicle reimbursement.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ATTACHMENT XVI Page 2 of 5 RENTAL REIMBURSEMENT GUIDELINES / NATIONAL TAKATA RECALL RENTAL AGREEMENT The following table lists the maximum per day dollar amounts that will be reimbursed under this policy. In some cases, the cost per day limit may not be sufficient to cover all of the costs associated with a rental vehicle. It is the customer’s responsibility to cover any additional costs above the cost per day limits. If there is a unique customer circumstance that requires a rental vehicle with a higher per day allowance, dealers should submit a VIN specific request to the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) for special consideration. Make of Recalled Vehicle Rental Vehicle Reimbursement Cost Per Day Limit Ford $44 (including tax) Mercury $44 (including tax) Lincoln $55 (including tax) To make it easier for dealers to locate vehicles within the rental vehicle reimbursement limits, Ford has established an agreement with Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Avis Budget Group, and Hertz to provide rental vehicles for customers affected by the Takata airbag recalls within the reimbursement limits listed above including tax. The only exclusion being the $55 per day rate for Lincoln customers, which has only been agreed upon by Enterprise Rent-A-Car and Hertz.  For Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Avis Budget Group, and Hertz, rental rates charged will be based on the make of the vehicle covered under the recall, rather than the type of vehicle rented to the customer (i.e. $44 per day for Ford and Mercury owners and $55 per day for Lincoln owners).  If a customer decides to rent a specialty vehicle such as a large SUV that is in excess of the cost per day reimbursement limits, the additional cost beyond the approved rate for the vehicle rented will be the customer’s responsibility to pay.  Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Avis Budget Group, and Hertz do not guarantee that a Ford or Lincoln vehicle will be rented to all customers that own or request such vehicles.  Regardless of a dealer’s tax status Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Avis Budget Group, and Hertz will bill dealers at the rates listed above.  The rates listed above may not be available at airport locations.  Ford does not endorse any particular rental vehicle provider. ENTERPRISE AUTOMATED RENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM If renting from Enterprise Rent-A-Car dealers are encouraged to schedule reservations through Enterprise’s free Automated Rental Management System (ARMS®). The ARMS® benefits to dealers are as follows:  The ability to create and submit “real time” rental reservations online or through your CDK® or Reynolds & Reynolds® Dealership Management System to the local Enterprise branch.  Reservations can be made same day or submitted in advance with anticipation of rental needs.  Specific rental needs can be communicated in the reservation (e.g. full-size SUV desired, etc.).  Authorize additional rental days when necessary.  View and print rental invoices online, immediately after each rental event is completed.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ATTACHMENT XVI Page 3 of 5 EXPENSES NOT COVERED UNDER RENTAL VEHICLE REIMBURSEMENT Rental Vehicle Reimbursement does not cover the following expenses:  Mileage charges  Fuel charges  Underage driver surcharge  Insurance  One-way fees NOTE: Some car insurance policies include rental vehicle insurance coverage so the purchase of additional insurance may not be required. RENTAL VEHICLE DOCUMENTATION Rental vehicle documentation must include the following:  A rental invoice from a dealership or commercial rental agency  Contract holder’s name on the rental invoice  Daily rental rate  Proof of payment (for customer refund of rental) ADMINISTRATIVE ALLOWANCE Dealers are eligible to claim a $25 administrative fee for:  Any rental claims under long-term rental program 18A01, 18A02, 18A03, or 18A04 that were submitted after June 13, 2018. This includes long-term rental claims that were originally approved by the SSSC after May 12, 2018 but processed for warranty payment after June 13, 2018.  Any rental claims with an RO open date after September 23, 2018 that require more than 4 rental days. Refer to the Dealer Bulletin for claiming instructions. CUSTOMER WAITLIST Dealers with customers on a waitlist for a rental vehicle are encouraged to work with their rental vehicle provider of choice. In most cases if a rental vehicle is not immediately available, rental vehicle providers are able to provide one to customers within 24 hours. If using Ford Courtesy Transportation Program (FCTP) for rentals, dealers should contact their sales operations manager for consideration for additional FCTP units. YOUTHFUL RENTER SURCHARGE Drivers under the age of 25 may be subject to a youthful renter surcharge and additional insurance requirements. These additional fees are not eligible for rental vehicle reimbursement unless they fall within the cost per day limits. Youthful renter policies vary by rental vehicle provider and location. Contact the rental vehicle provider that the vehicle is being rented from for further details. INCREASED FORD COURTESY TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM (FCTP) GUIDES In order to support these customers, FCTP Program Headquarters will review increased guides requests above the existing maximum on a case by case basis to ensure coverage is sufficient. Dealers must submit their request to their sales operations manager in order to be considered. RENTAL VEHICLES PAID FOR BY CUSTOMERS If a customer has obtained a rental vehicle on their own that is within the guidelines of this policy, they are eligible for a refund. The customer must provide the dealer with the rental documentation necessary to request rental reimbursement. Dealers must then follow the rental vehicle reimbursement process and provide a refund to the customer. Amounts above the cost per day limits will not be reimbursed.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company ATTACHMENT XVI Page 4 of 5 ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION If a customer is unable or does not wish to rent a vehicle but still requires transportation, the rental reimbursement allowance can be used for alternative transportation. The same cost per day limits apply of $44 per day for Ford and Mercury customers and $55 per day for Lincoln customers. The dollar per day allowance can be cumulative across multiple rides per day (e.g. ride to work $20 and ride home $24).  Any amount in excess of the cost per day limits will be the customer’s responsibility.  The customer will need to pay up front and provide proof of payment to the dealer.  Dealers will then need to submit for reimbursement following the Rental Vehicle Reimbursement Process and then refund the customer. Examples of alternative transportation:  Taxi  Public Transportation – Subway, Train, or Bus  Rideshare alternatives (Uber, Lyft, etc.) STORAGE OF CUSTOMER VEHICLES For all new rental requests, dealers should retain customer vehicles until the recall repair is completed and the rental vehicle is returned. This will allow for the vehicle to be repaired as soon as the part arrives and for the rental vehicle to be promptly returned. Due to the vehicle storage duration only anticipated to be short term, a vehicle storage/upkeep allowance will not be provided to dealers under this program. If customers were previously advised to retain and store their vehicles, they should drop their vehicles off at their dealer so the vehicle can be repaired as soon as the part arrives. Customers will be responsible for all vehicle upkeep during the time the vehicle is being stored. RESTRICTED VEHICLE USE AGREEMENT The Restricted Vehicle Use Agreement is no longer required for new rental requests due to the recalled vehicle remaining at the dealership until repaired.  Copyright 2019 Ford Motor Company TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL RENTAL VEHICLE PROCESS Start End Customer requests a rental vehicle Customer completes all required rental vehicle paperwork and is free to leave with the rental vehicle Order the required part(s) prior to the customer s appointment.
