    Ford & Other Automakers Step Up To Help California Fire Victims: A Powerful Show of Support

    With the Palisades and Eaton fires ravaging through Southern California, Ford, alongside some other automakers have put out resources and information so those affected can get the help they need. Email from Jake Bley: Hi Kyle and Dave (sorry for the late email), not your usual content but given how connected you are in the community I wanted to share. Your support will allow us to reach as many impacted individuals as possible. Today we’re providing an update on the support provided by Ford in response to the wildfires in Los Angeles. Ford has always shown up for communities, and we are committed to being there for the greater Los Angeles area, now and over the long journey ahead. To assist our owners within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Designated Disaster Area 4856, Ford has launched the following. Payment Deferrals: Ford Credit is offering 120-day payment deferrals to affected customers. Customers can contact their dealer or Ford Credit for more information. Pricing: California Wildfires Disaster Relief employee pricing on select new 2024-2025 Ford models will be available at participating Ford Dealers through March 31, 2025, for eligible California residents who lost their vehicle due to the fires. Customers can contact their local dealer for more information. BlueOval Charge Network California Wildfires Reimbursement Program: All BlueOval Charge Network charging sessions initiated within the FEMA designated areas from January 7, 2025 through January 31, 2025 will be reimbursed to the customer. Fast Charging Adapters: We are temporarily holding open adapter reservation shipments for customers in certain impacted areas until it is feasible to resume. For displaced customers, we will expedite address changes and hold shipments at the customer's request. A shipment of adapters has been sent to dealers in the immediate area. This is to support customers with immediate charging needs, including those utilizing their vehicles to power support. Ford Power Promise: If a customer received a complimentary home charger and standard installation through Ford Power Promise and subsequently lost their home in the fires, Ford will replace their charger and cover the cost of a standard installation for a replacement charger.
