Does the Ford extended warranty cover the battery?
I’m trying to figure out what my Ford extended warranty covers. While I get the basic idea of Ford’s extended warranty, I can’t find any information about the battery. Does the extended warranty from Ford cover the battery?

As a result, you’re on the hook for the replacement costs, which range from about $150 to $300 depending on the vehicle, the model year, and the quality or warranty level of the new battery.
