Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

Attachment I - Administrative Information

OASIS ACTIVATED?

Yes, OASIS will be activated on October 13, 2009.

NOTE:
This recall pertains to certain vehicles that have a factory installed speed control deactivation switch only. Ford offered a Genuine Accessory Speed Control kit that utilized a production steering wheel identical to the factory-installed system. The Ford accessory kit does not use a master cylinder mounted deactivation switch and, as a result, vehicles with this kit are not included in this recall. If a customer inquires about Safety Recall 09509, and the VIN of their vehicle is not listed in OASIS under 09509, the vehicle is not involved in the program.

FSA VIN LIST ACTIVATED?

Yes, FSA VIN list will be available through the website by October 15, 2009. Owner names and addresses will be available by December 18, 2009.

NOTE:
Your FSA VIN list may contain owner names and addresses obtained from motor vehicle registration records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any purpose other than in connection with this recall is a violation of law in several states, provinces, and countries. Accordingly, you must limit the use of this listing to the follow-up necessary to complete this recall action.

STOCK VEHICLES

Correct all affected units in your vehicle inventory before delivery.

SOLD VEHICLES

^ Owners of affected vehicles will be directed to dealers for repairs.

^ Immediately contact any of your affected owners whose vehicles are not on your VIN lists but are identified in OASIS. Give the customer a copy of the Owner Notification Letter (when available) and schedule a service date.

RELATED DAMAGE

If a related damage condition exists that you believe to be caused by the covered condition, call the Special Service Support Center to request approval prior to the repair of any related damage. Requests for approval after completion of the repair will not be granted. Ford Motor Company reserves the right to deny coverage for related damage in cases where the vehicle owner has not had this recall performed on a timely basis.

ADDITIONAL LABOR TIME

^ If a condition exists that requires additional labor to complete the repair, call the Special Service Support Center to request approval prior to performing any additional labor. Requests for approval after completion of the repair will not be granted.

^ If you encounter aftermarket equipment or modifications to the vehicle which might prevent the repair of the covered condition, call the Special Service Support Center.

OWNER REFUNDS

^ This safety recall must still be performed, even if the customer has paid for a previous repair. Claiming a refund will not close the recall on the vehicle.

^ Ford Motor Company is offering a refund for owner paid repairs covered by this recall if the repair was performed prior to the date indicated in the reimbursement plan, which is posted with this bulletin. This plan is also available to owners through the Customer Relationship Center (CRC). The CRC will direct owners to seek reimbursement through authorized dealers or, at their option, directly through Ford Motor Company at P.O. Box 6251 Dearborn, MI 48121-6251.

^ Dealers are also authorized to refund owner paid emergency repairs that were performed away from an authorized servicing dealer after the end date specified in the reimbursement plan. Non-covered repairs, or those judged by Ford to be excessive, will not be reimbursed.
