Just to add some detail to this ... the labour rate that Ford pays for work is significantly lower than the rate that you and I would pay, and of course the dealer makes next to nothing on the parts.
A shop that isn't very busy will welcome warranty work ... a shop that is very busy usually resents the warranty stuff as it tends to lower their average return per bay.
