3. What is the risk of not following the SREA process? Risk to Ford
Changes made without Ford review have the potential to impact vehicle system operation, part quality and Ford plant processes Changes that are not detected by Ford can impact vehicle customer satisfaction and tarnish the brand image Changes can result in unanticipated repair, replacement, quality cost
Risk to suppliers
Loss of Q1 through Violation of Trust Field warranty or Ford plant containment costs Lost production and reinstatement of prior process

DEFINITION -- FCSD Service-Unique parts/product: Parts/product released by FCSD and not common with production parts/product (i.e. remanufactured components, service chemical, etc), and past model parts/product no longer used in production or for Original Equipment warranty repairs, but still produced for service. SERVICE-UNIQUE MANUFACTURING AND SITE/LOCATION CHANGES The list of service-unique manufacturing and site/location changes is the same as the list for production parts/product.
Note (Ford internal use):
For current model service-unique parts/product and FCSD Service-Unique parts/product; the originating Design and Release or PVT activity is responsible for all changes per the production part Global SREA Process documented in this procedure. If Ford Engineering is unable to address the SREA for the FCSD Service-Unique parts/product, then, upon FCSD request, Ford Engineering should transfer part/product ownership in WERS to FCSD (activity NUU0). This part/product ownership transfer will maintain a single design record associated with the transferred Service-Unique part/product and resultant SREA change.
