The Ford picture in Costa Rica
In Costa Rica, the volume leaders are Toyota, Hyundai, and Nissan, but Ford keeps a loyal base whose owners expect genuine parts and correct fitment.
Local cars are built to EPA/CARB federalized specifications and work in four-season conditions, so identifying the right Ford part means matching the exact federalized build — not just the model name.
