the servicing criteria applicable to it under paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as
of and for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the Reporting Period), including all servicing
criteria except for inapplicable servicing criteria identified in paragraph 4 below and the
portions of servicing criteria covered by a separate assessment and identified in Appendix A

transactions involving automotive retail installment sale contracts completed on or after
January 1, 2006 and registered with the Securities Exchange Commission for which Ford Credit
acted as servicer (the Platform).2.
    
    Ford Credit has engaged vendors that are not servicers as defined in Item 1101(j) of
Regulation AB to perform specific, limited or scripted activities with respect to the
servicing criteria applicable to such vendors activities as set forth in Appendix A to this
report. Ford Credit has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the
servicing criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to each vendor. Ford
Credit has policies and procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that the vendors
activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria or portion of the
servicing criteria applicable to each vendor.3.
    
    Except as set forth in paragraph 4 below, Ford Credit used the criteria set forth in
paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to assess the compliance with the applicable
servicing criteria.4.
    
    The servicing criteria in Item 1122(d)(1)(iii),1122(d)(1)(iv), 1122(d)(2)(iii),
1122(d)(2)(v), 1122(d)(2)(vi), 1122(d)(3)(i)(D), 1122(d)(3)(iii), and 1122(d)(4)(ix) through
1122(d)(4)(xiii) are inapplicable to Ford Credit based on the activities it performs, directly
or through its vendors (including indenture trustees), with respect to the Platform.5.
    
    Ford Credit has complied, in all material respects, with the applicable servicing criteria as
of December 31, 2008 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a
whole.6.
    
    Ford Credit has not identified and is not aware of any material instance of noncompliance by
the vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of December 31, 2008 and for the
Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole.7.
    
    Ford Credit has not identified any material deficiency in its policies and procedures to
monitor the compliance by the vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of December
31, 2008 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole.8.
    
    PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, a registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation
