Fusion Energi eligible for the FMPP (prepaid mtce pkg)?

I didn't purchase the package from Ford but my dealer had their own maintenance package and I got them to throw it in with the vehicle.  If you haven't taken possession of the vehicle yet, I'd start negotiating and seeing what they can do.  Here is the thing, if you drive this thing mostly electric, you won't be needing an oil change for a while.  Regenerative braking really saves you on using your friction brakes.  The big things will most likely be tires and wipers and cabin air filter.  Most maintenance packages don't cover tires.  And wipers and air filters are cheap.  So is it worth it?  Depends on how much maintenance you'd expect to pay for.

In my opinion, pre-paid maintenance plans are almost always a bad deal on any new vehicle.  Chances are very good that if you just put the money in the bank and use it to pay for repairs and maintenance you'll come out ahead in the long run.  If they didn't make money on those plans, they wouldn't sell them....

 

I guess some people think of them like an insurance policy to hedge their risk against some catastrophic failure.  For me, I've always preferred to take my chances.  Hopefully I wont be proven wrong on the Fusion Energi :)
