ALM Ford Marietta adds free lifetime powertrain warranty to qualifying new Ford vehicles

ALM Ford Marietta has launched a no-cost Included Lifetime Warranty for qualifying new Ford vehicles, covering major engine, transmission and drivetrain components for as long as the original owner keeps the vehicle. The program is designed to give Metro Atlanta buyers more long-term protection, with maintenance requirements and exclusions spelled out upfront. Why it matters: - The warranty lowers the long-term ownership risk for qualifying new Ford buyers. - Coverage targets the most expensive mechanical systems to repair: the engine, transmission and drivetrain. - The program is available at no additional charge and lasts for the original owner’s period of ownership. What happened: - ALM Ford Marietta introduced its Included Lifetime Warranty for qualifying new Ford vehicles. - The dealership says the warranty is automatically included with eligible purchases. - The warranty is based in Marietta, Georgia, and serves Metro Atlanta drivers. The details: - Covered parts include the engine block, cylinder heads, internal lubricated parts, timing system, turbocharger or supercharger, transmission case and internal parts, torque converter, mounts, drive axles, axle housings, bearings, CV and U-joints, axle shafts, and seals and gaskets when required for an approved repair. - Coverage stays active as long as the original owner keeps the vehicle. - Owners must follow manufacturer-recommended maintenance to keep coverage active. - Oil and filter changes are required every 12 months or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. - Maintenance can be performed at any licensed repair facility. - If a covered issue comes up, customers bring the vehicle to the ALM Ford Marietta service department. - Customers must provide maintenance records and allow trained technicians to diagnose the problem. - Once a claim is approved, repairs are completed with the warranty administrator. - The warranty does not cover routine wear items such as oil, filters, spark plugs, belts, hoses, wipers, brake pads, rotors, tires or clutches. - Failures caused by misuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unauthorized repairs are excluded. - Electric vehicles, commercial-use vehicles and vehicles modified from factory specifications are not eligible. - ALM Ford Marietta is located at 869 Cobb Parkway South in Marietta, Georgia. - The dealership says it serves Kennesaw, Smyrna, Acworth, Roswell and Woodstock. Between the lines: - The warranty is a sales and retention tool as much as a protection plan. - Clear maintenance rules and exclusions help reduce disputes and set expectations before purchase. - The program may appeal to buyers comparing total cost of ownership across Ford dealerships. What’s next: - Drivers can visit the showroom to review qualifying vehicles. - Customers can browse new inventory online. - Shoppers can schedule a service appointment to learn more about coverage and claim steps. - ALM Ford Marietta is positioning the warranty as part of a broader customer-service and ownership-support offering.
