KEY RATING DRIVERS
The rating affirmations reflect loss coverage levels consistent with current ratings. The transaction continues to perform well within Fitch's cumulative net loss expectation to date.

The ratings reflect the quality of Ford Motor Credit Company's (FMCC) retail auto loan originations, the sound financial and legal structure of the transaction, and the strength of the servicing provided by FMCC.

RATING SENSITIVITIES
Unanticipated increases in the frequency of defaults and loss severity could produce loss levels higher than the current projected base case and impact available loss coverage and multiples levels for the transaction. Lower loss coverage could impact the ratings and Rating Outlooks depending on the extent of the decline in coverage.

In Fitch's initial review of the transaction, the notes were found to have limited sensitivity to a 1.5x and 2.5x increase of Fitch's base case loss expectations. To date, the transaction has exhibited strong performance with losses well within Fitch's initial expectations with rising loss coverage and multiple levels. As such, a material deterioration in performance would have to occur within the asset pools to have potential negative impact on the outstanding ratings.

Fitch's analysis of the Representation and Warranties (R&W) of the transaction in this review can be found in the respective appendix listed below. These R&W are compared to those of typical R&W for the asset class as detailed in the special report 'Representations, Warranties, and Enforcement Mechanisms in the Global Structured Finance Transactions' dated March 26, 2015.
