Ford Ranger Change Vehicle

"Over the last 12-18 months, patches of peeling paint have developed on the hood, in two large spots near the leading edge and the hood's trailing edge. It is unsightly, but does not affect the performance of the truck. It also appears to be commonplace on Arizona-based Ford trucks of that era. I have not had the time or money to have the hood repainted at a body shop, although this is not out of the question."

"paint peels off the rocker panels"

"paint peeling and rust progression of rear left box panel. Body shop repair estimate ~$3500 for repair/replacement. Too much for old truck, so pop rivet/sheet metal repair & can of matching spray paint to cover the deteriorating paint. Suits me fine for an old beater :) good for the woods roads to go fishin'!"

"First gear is rough to engage"

"Leaking. Replaced Feb 2020"

"very hard to shift into 1st or reverse when stopped. Better when moving."

"driveshaft seal oil leak"

"Purchased a used driveshaft and differential."

"Front wheel bearing"

"Service engine light has been on for quite some time. Garage mechanic did diagnostic test indicating somewhere within emission control/gas cap venting. Truck runs fine & cost oif detecting & repairing problem could be expenjsive. So just put a $.01 piece of black tape over the service engine light and problem solved :)"

"The check engine light kept coming on. The Ford service place said it was an issue with emissions that didn't affect the function of the truck. Montana law didn't require that I fix it, but I did anyway for environmental reasons"

"a fuel injector failed, causing a misfire. it took quite some troubleshooting, because the fuel injector would not show any symptoms of failure. it ohmed within specification, and within 10% of all other injectors. after eliminating all other variables, it was replaced as a just in case, and the misfire was resolved."

"Driver door exterior handle broke. It is made of plastic and most likely damaged from sun and use."

"the little doors ratel,the door latchs can not be adjusted"

"Tailgate hinges (male side attached to body) rusted and tailgate fell off"

"Minor problem. Driver's side rear signal light burned out."

"Dash light for speedometer not working.$370 required to repair."

"have to put air in the tires 2or 3 times in the winter"

"One day I had to get a jump start because the alternator had gone out. Took it to get fixed right away"

"Needed a new starter"

"CD frequently does not eject. This is the second radio/player for this vehicle, both with the same problem. I have had similar radio/cd players in other Ford vehicles I have owned, all with the same issue"

"The fundamental problem is that the ignition does not detect the key properly. When this happens it goes into lockout. The car cannot be started sometimes for several hours. I have not been able to get this problem fixed at the dealer or anywhere"

"recall on air bag, passenger side ,it took 1 year after recall from ford to finally get the replacement part."

"Y pipe rusted through. Fixed by Ford"

"Bed squeaks and rattles a lot"

"What more can I say wind noise"

"Transmission failed. Car would not go forward. After leaks, repair to tranny cooler, and 3 days troubleshooting was repaired under extended warranty"
