Rental Cars
If inspection reveals that new seat belt buckle assemblies must be installed, Ford Motor Company will pay for a loaner or rental vehicle, except for fuel
which will be at owner's expense, until the replacement buckle assemblies can be installed. Enter the word "LOANER" plus the number of days the
vehicle was used in the Miscellaneous Expense area.
NOTE:
Rental cars are authorized only when inspection reveals that the seat belt buckle assembly must be replaced. In this case, a rental is provided because
the buckle assembly would normally need to be ordered after inspection of the vehicle.
