NEW YORK -- January 17, 2013

As part of its ongoing surveillance, Fitch Ratings affirms one class of the
Ford Credit Auto Owner Trust 2009-A transaction as follows:

--Class A-4 affirmed at 'AAAsf'; Outlook Stable.

The ratings are based on growing credit enhancement and low loss performance
to date. The collateral pool continues to perform within Fitch's ongoing
expectations. In addition, under the credit enhancement structure, the
securities are able to withstand stress scenarios consistent with the updated
ratings and make full payments to investors in accordance with the terms of
the documents.

The ratings reflect the quality of Ford Motor Credit Company's retail auto
loan originations, the strength of its servicing capabilities, and the sound
financial and legal structure of the transaction.

Additional information is available at 'www.fitchratings.com'. The ratings
above were solicited by, or on behalf of, the issuer, and therefore, Fitch has
been compensated for the provision of the ratings.
