Following General Motors move, FoMoCo is also offering $1,000 trade-in cash on Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles to lure in Toyota owners that are facing recalls on sticking accelerator pedals.

“The offer is eligible to Acura, Honda, Toyota, Lexus and Scion owners,” Robert Parker, a Ford spokesman told Inside Line on Thursday.

Ford did not say when the incentive program will end.

GM said yesterday that it is offering a monthlong incentive to Toyota and Lexus owners after “thousands” of them called and e-mailed dealers asking for help.

    Going after Honda/Acura too … that is ambitious.

    Not really …seeing as they earned a $2.7 billion profit for 2009. Honda and Acura are boring and ugly… Ford and Lincoln have some amazing new cars.

    What a b$tch move by GM and Ford. Toyota and Honda should have done the same thing when GM was struggling and Ford was barely hanging in there. But they would have never stooed that low. As a customer, you might get $1k back, but that's doesn't take away from the fact that American cars are garbage (new or not).

    My Mercury dealer says this incentive ends March 1. Is that correct? How can I find out?
