Ford’s factory warranty provides solid initial coverage, but Nassau County drivers who plan to keep their vehicle past the standard terms have a smart option in Ford Extended Service Plans. Levittown Ford, part of VIP Automotive Group, offers Ford’s full lineup of extended coverage plans for new and used vehicles across Levittown, East Meadow, Wantagh, and the broader Nassau County area.
Bottom Line: Ford Extended Service Plans purchased at Levittown Ford are backed by Ford Motor Company and can be financed into your vehicle loan for no upfront cost.
- Plans are available for new and eligible used or certified pre-owned Ford vehicles
- Coverage options range from basic powertrain to comprehensive bumper-to-bumper protection
- Claims are honored at any authorized Ford dealer in the country
Ford Extended Service Plan Coverage Tiers
Ford offers four distinct Extended Service Plan tiers through its Ford Protect program. Understanding what each covers helps Nassau County buyers choose the right level for their vehicle and how long they plan to keep it.
PremiumCARE is the most comprehensive option, covering approximately 1,000 components - essentially everything not on a short exclusion list. This is the closest equivalent to a new-car bumper-to-bumper warranty for older vehicles and is the right choice for Nassau County drivers who want to eliminate repair cost surprises on a complex vehicle.
Extra Care covers the powertrain plus selected high-cost systems including the fuel system, cooling system, front and rear suspension, steering, braking, and electrical components. It offers a meaningful step up from basic coverage without the full PremiumCARE price. BaseCARE covers the core powertrain only - engine, transmission, drive axles, and related components.
How Ford Extended Service Plans Work at Levittown Ford
Extended Service Plans purchased at Levittown Ford are administered directly by Ford Motor Company, not a third-party warranty company. This distinction matters for Nassau County buyers because it means coverage is backed by Ford’s financial resources and honored at any Ford dealer nationwide - not just at the selling dealership.
Plans can be financed directly into your vehicle loan, spreading the cost over the life of the financing period. For most Nassau County buyers, this means the extended coverage adds only a modest amount to the monthly payment rather than requiring a large upfront commitment.
Levittown Ford’s finance team walks through coverage terms, deductible options, and pricing based on your specific vehicle, mileage, and desired coverage window. Ask specifically about plans that begin when factory coverage expires - this avoids paying for duplicate coverage you already have.
Which Vehicles Qualify for an Extended Service Plan
Extended Service Plans are available for new Ford vehicles at the time of purchase and for used or CPO vehicles that meet Ford’s age and mileage criteria. Nassau County buyers who purchased a used Ford elsewhere can still add an extended plan if the vehicle falls within Ford’s eligibility window - check with the Levittown Ford finance team for current terms.
The F-150, Explorer, Expedition, Bronco, and Bronco Sport are all commonly covered under ESP plans. Higher-technology vehicles with more electronic systems - like the Mach-E or vehicles equipped with BlueCruise - benefit most from comprehensive coverage given the cost to diagnose and repair modern electrical architecture.
Certified pre-owned Ford vehicles that carry Gold-tier Blue Advantage certification already include 7-year/100,000-mile powertrain coverage. An additional Extended Service Plan on a CPO vehicle can add electronic and system coverage beyond what the CPO warranty includes. See the certified pre-owned Ford overview for details on how CPO and extended plan coverage work together.
"Extended Service Plans give our Nassau County customers real peace of mind, especially on F-150s and Expeditions they plan to keep for years. The cost is easy to build into the loan."

Evaluating Whether an Extended Plan Is Right for You
The math on extended coverage depends on how long you plan to keep the vehicle and your risk tolerance for out-of-pocket repairs. Nassau County drivers who keep their Ford for 7 to 10 years typically find extended coverage pays for itself with even one major repair avoided.
Shorter-term owners or drivers who trade vehicles frequently before major repairs typically see less value from extended plans. The honest calculation is to compare the plan cost against the statistical repair probability for your specific vehicle over your intended ownership window - the Levittown Ford finance team can walk through this with real numbers.
Ford’s plans are also transferable to a subsequent owner if you sell the vehicle before coverage expires. This transferability adds resale value because a vehicle with remaining extended coverage is more attractive on the used market than one without it.

FAQ: Ford Extended Warranty at Levittown Ford
What is the difference between a Ford factory warranty and an Extended Service Plan?
The Ford factory warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the initial warranty period - typically 3 years/36,000 miles bumper-to-bumper and 5 years/60,000 miles powertrain. An Extended Service Plan is a separate contract that continues or expands coverage after factory terms expire.
Can I purchase a Ford Extended Service Plan on a used vehicle?
Yes, as long as the vehicle meets Ford’s current age and mileage eligibility criteria. The Levittown Ford finance team can verify eligibility for your specific vehicle and explain available coverage tiers.
Does an Extended Service Plan cover routine maintenance?
No. Extended Service Plans cover mechanical and electrical failures, not scheduled maintenance such as oil changes, tire rotations, or brake pads. Routine maintenance is covered separately through Ford’s prepaid maintenance options or through standard service appointments.
Are Ford Extended Service Plans honored outside of Levittown Ford?
Yes. Ford-backed Extended Service Plans are honored at any authorized Ford dealership in the United States and Canada. Nassau County drivers who travel frequently or winter in Florida, for example, can use their plan at any Ford dealer they visit.
Can I add an Extended Service Plan after I have already taken delivery of my vehicle?
In most cases, yes - within certain mileage and age limits. Contact the Levittown Ford finance team promptly after purchase to confirm your eligibility window. Waiting too long can disqualify the vehicle from coverage.
