I still have the points from my 2024 GT purchase and they will be expiring in January. Any suggestions on how to keep them alive? I don't really need anything. Got the trunk and floor mats already. Car has 9k miles on it. Considering maybe applying them to a Ford extended warranty. Any other method to keep them alive? TIA!

Do all dealers take points for parts? What's the process? TIA
Not to sound snobbish or anything like that but the executive assistant usually handles it, i just stand there , say i have points, wha lah something makes a printing noise, somebody signs something and we walk out.

for most part yes, dealers accept points for stuff, we’ve only cashed them in in person, they look up your ford points account.

From the app: "Points* expire after 18 months of inactivity. To keep your account active, complete at least one transaction that either earns or redeems Points every 18 months."

Need an oil change?
Ahh!
So if I have say, 200 points worth $200.00 and purchase wiper blades for $25.00 and use 25 points, will the remaining 175 points stay active or do I have to use them all before the expiration date? TIA

Yes, any transaction. Buy merch on the Ford Merch site, they will take points now. They have 20% off right now I believe as well.

SiriusXM account credits. I haven't paid for Satellite radio in like 4 years between negotiated rates around 4.99/month and the $100 credits that you can exchange the Ford points for.

Evidently not all dealers are participating in the points for merch program. My nearest dealers don't show up in the list when I enter my zip code!
