I have a 2020 ford ranger lariat has about 67xxx miles now but at around 50k I had the serpentine belt pulley break off the timing belt cover for unknown reasons,they couldn't figure out what caused it so they replace the broken part along with new belts and pulleys now I'm at 67xxx and the truck started bogging down specially in the morning I let it warm up for around 10 mins or so and I start driving it but once I come to a stop light and I give it some gas it'll start moving then bogs down for a milli second and jumps back to speed and it'll be fine after about 30 mins of driving without zero issues,I recently had gotten it back from the dealership and they couldn't figure out the cause they did a pcm and transmission update and didn't solve anything then they replace the tps sensor and battery and they said it was good to go and now that I'm driving it the problem is still there!!now I don't know if I should take it back or do the lemon law anyone else having that bogging issue? its also has the extended warranty

Hi I just had to take my Ranger in multiple times for this issue. months ago I took it in for this issue and they did what you described above and it did not work but recently I got a service light with the following "The emission control system has detected the exhaust gas recirculation pressure sensor signal is not as expected when the vehicle is at idle."

I was having issues similar to what you had stated and similar to what others described as a transmission issue. and the following fix is what fixed it up for me.
here is what was on the paperwork given back to me.
Self test all modules, found DTC P139C in PCM, followed pinpoint test HE for EGR systems, pinpoint test led to replacing differential pressure feedback sensor, removed and replaced.

This alleviated all the issues I was having. I was even experiencing difficulty "finding a gear" when cruising while on the freeway when needing just a little throttle.

Hope this helps

also I did not have any protection plan and mine was out of warranty at 68k miles. I paid $500 for it to be fixed. I did have this in previously to be looked at before it went out of warranty so I may write Ford a letter and see if I could get the money back but I'm not very hopeful on that one.

Thanks for posting your problems bro I appreciate it alot,I'm cleaning the map sensor I pulled it out and it was pretty dirty so I'm waiting for it to dry completely for 30 mins before reinstalling it back,if that doesn't fix the issue then I'll go ahead and replace it with a new one along with the DPFE sensor if that does do it I'll just drive it till it causes a check engine light so that the dealer can actually pinpoint it otherwise they were no help they had the truck for 1 month and all they did was replaced my tps sensor and battery cause I told them the voltage drops,but that didn't fix anything

I will also say that my dealer added some new clips to the hoses as they weren't confident in the old ones after they took them off, did not charge me for them of course, but I had to wait for someone to bring them to the dealer that day so they could install. so just be mindful of that when you do it. I usually get good service from them and was glad they looked out for me and did not just throw the old ones back on.
