yeah you can have your car serviced at ANY garage aslong as you use genuine ford parts,,,,,,,, and tbh you can also get away with using NON genuine ford parts IF there to the same standard, but that just makes it harder to prove
BUT most ford dealers service departments are on there knees at the momement and you will prob find you can get fixed price servicing done for a good deal ( my place offered my missus uncle to service his modeo for 70 quid including parts on a just a lube service
BUT a 3 year service will require air, oil filter, pollen filter, fuel filter, plugs, oil
see what they charge and workmit out against the resale value....... sorry but nms aint gonna mean as much to most people who buy these cars,, not everyone knows who karl is belive it or not
but as far as warranty goes, just as steve says and he knows this as its in his interest to know this stuff, where as its in my interest to keep this info from you all
