I just wanted to put this out on the web to save some frustration. I did not have the owner's card that came with the car. I bought my 2010 SEL used. I had a problem with finding the code. One dealer around me wanted 50 dollars, the other wanted 40 dollars to hook up the car to the computer and pull the code from the car. I searched the web and looked at the location described by other ford owners. I did look up above the brake pedal for any type of sticker. It was worth a shot. I only saw one sticker. White, black numbers, five digits. Figured I would try it. Sure enough it worked. For what its worth, the code was located on my car. Give it a shot and save yourself some cash and a headache.
