Has anyone purchased this? and what did they think about it? I imagine there is already a thread about this but cant get search to find it.
The purpose of the tune is to keep your warranty . Else everyone would get a custom tune.mmike87 said:Generally, the people with this tune (from what I have read) who do NOT have the pinging issues are happy with it. HOWEVER - you'll have no support for ANY tune-required aftermarket accessories, ever.
You have to be careful when you say "keep" your warranty. The drive train warranty is lost through Ford but picked up by Ford Racing. They are entirely two different companies.The purpose of the tune is to keep your warranty . Else everyone would get a custom tune.
No, grabber is right. Ford motor company, ford dealerships, and ford racing are all different companies. The factory warranty is dropped and ford racing gives you a 3/36 warranty (I think that's how long it is)A warranty is a warranty, when Ford is in the name. My research said factory warranty is retained.
And you would be wrong. You might want to do some more research......A warranty is a warranty, when Ford is in the name. My research said factory warranty is retained.
That's exactly right.No, grabber is right. Ford motor company, ford dealerships, and ford racing are all different companies. The factory warranty is dropped and ford racing gives you a 3/36 warranty (I think that's how long it is)
It picks up the factory drivetrain warranty and runs until 3/36 from vehicle origination date. As in you can't put the tune on a car with 20k miles expecting a warranty till 56k.GrabberBlue5.0 said:No, grabber is right.

You are 100% correct. I started out with an extended warranty and I was told installing FRPP was ok. Wrong! Under the ESP (Extended Service Plan) on page 3, para 7c you will see Ford Racing parts spelled out. I made a few phone calls, got a call from the director of financing, filed the cancel paperwork, and got my money back very quickly by dealership standards.The people who bought the extended warranty are screwed if they tune!! They should get their money back if Ford drops your warranty!!!! That's the way I look at it!!!
You already have that paperwork, it's in the contract (ESP 8240-NatApp/Provos-(F)-(Oct 11) on pages 4 through 7 starting at item 12 (A), just an FYI here (12 (B) Is Fords right to cancel you). You have to read all the lawyer crud and then search four pages to see if your state has additional items that may modify the original 12 (A) statement. I would call Ford ESP (have your VIN available) since they will answer your questions and you may be able to just file with them. It's fairly straight forward.Cant you cancel the extended warranty, though? I know they mentioned transferrable/ refundable on a sale/trade but not sure about a straight out cancel. Where's that paperwork...?
