REPLACED FSA PARTS INSPECTION AND SIGN OFF
Effective March 1st, 2021, all parts replaced as part of an FSA repair with a repair order open date of
March 1st, 2021, or later must be inspected and signed off on the repair order by a member of your
dealer’s fixed operations management team or an employee the task has been delegated to. If the
task is to be delegated to a non-management employee, the employee needs to be someone other
than the technician who completed the repair and needs to understand the importance of completing
this task consistently and accurately.
•
All parts replaced as part of an FSA repair should be returned to the parts department
following the Warranty Parts Retention and Return Policies.
•
Inspect the replaced parts to verify the FSA repair was completed.
•
If the FSA repair is found to be complete, the designated employee signs the repair order line
or parts return stamp area (electronic or hand signed) for the FSA repair indicating the parts
were inspected and validated to have been replaced.
•
After the parts have been inspected, they should be handled based on the guidance in the
parts status report in the Online Warranty System (Hold, Return, CORE, Scrap, etc.). Please
visit FMCDEALER > PARTS & SERVICE > WARRANTY ADMINISTRATION & WARRANTY
PARTS RETURN for the latest Immediate Scrap List information.
This process is subject to review during warranty audits for FSA repairs with a repair order
open date of March 1st, 2021, or later. Any eligible FSA claims requiring parts replacement
found not to have been inspected and signed off during a warranty audit will be subject to
chargeback and consideration for enrollment into the Dealer Incomplete Recall Repair
Process.
Note: Other approvals (electronic or handwritten) for add-on repair lines, dealer-owned vehicle
repairs, and repeat repairs do not qualify as FSA parts inspection approvals. The post-repair FSA
parts inspection process (electronic or handwritten) is independent of other warranty approval
requirements. The approval by the designated employee implies that the FSA parts were found to be
replaced and must be able to be identified on the Repair Order. If multiple FSAs require approval on a
single Repair Order, each applicable occurrence will require individual post-repair approval by the
designated employee.

Mr. John Sample
123 Main Street
Anywhere, USA 12345
Your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): 12345678901234567
At Ford Motor Company, we are committed not only to building high-quality, dependable products but
also to building a community of happy, satisfied customers. To demonstrate that commitment, we are
providing a no-charge Customer Satisfaction Program for your vehicle with the VIN shown above.
Why are you receiving
this notice?
On your vehicle, it may be possible that the rear cargo mat was not included
with the cargo protection package at the assembly plant.
What is the effect?
This may result in an incomplete cargo protection package and does not
affect vehicle function.
What will Ford and
your dealer do?
In the interest of customer satisfaction, Ford Motor Company has authorized
your dealer to install the correct rear cargo mat free of charge (parts and
labor) under the terms of this program.
This Customer Satisfaction Program will be in effect until March 22, 2025
regardless of mileage. Coverage is automatically transferred to subsequent
owners.
How long will it take?
The time needed for this repair is less than one-half day. However, due to
service scheduling requirements, your dealer may need your vehicle for a
longer period of time.
What should you do?
Please call your dealer without delay to schedule a service appointment for
Customer Satisfaction Program 23B90. Provide the dealer with your VIN,
which is printed near your name at the beginning of this letter.
If you do not already have a servicing dealer, you can access
ford.com/support for dealer addresses, maps, and driving instructions.
Ford Motor Company wants you to have this service action completed on
your vehicle. The vehicle owner is responsible for making arrangements to
have the work completed.

Satisfaction Programs through our FordPass App. The app can be

equipped to allow control.
Mobile Service
Ford Mobile Service is offered by participating dealers, contact your dealer
for details.
Pick-Up and Delivery
Complimentary vehicle Pick-Up & Delivery service may also be available
upon request through participating dealers. Your dealer will pick up your
vehicle and return it with the repair completed.
What if you no longer
own this vehicle?
If you no longer own this vehicle and have an address for the current owner,
please forward this letter to the new owner.
You received this notice because our records, which are based primarily on
state registration and title data, indicate that you are the current owner.
