I came across these TSBs for our MMs. I guess you have to pay up to get info from the web site. I don’t plan on doing that. Does anyone know if these TSBs are “real?”

Would a dealership fix them for free because Ford would pay? Or is that just for recalls. Not sure how the TSB thing is supposed to work. Maybe the answer is here?

12.Are there any limitations on my right to have my vehicle remedied at no charge?<o:p></o:p>
Yes. In order to be eligible for free remedy, the vehicle cannot be more than 10 years old on the date the defect or non-compliance is determined. Under the law, the age of the vehicle is calculated from the date of sale to the first purchaser.<o:p></o:p>

I think TSBs are listed here too but I did not find them.

That's weird, mine doesn't have any of those "symptons" to my knowledge.

Ford only pays for TSB's when car is still under factory warranty. TSB's are not recalls, they are information from FORD to help techs fix cars.
As far as "free remedy", what exactly are you asking? FORD program letters extend specific repairs for specific complaints and are paid by FORD during the duration they extend the limitations to.

Those are just a few of the TSBs for 2003s - there are over 35 TSBs applicable to the 2003 Marauder last I checked.....
