Been having issues with my 2019 Ranger Lariat bucking and jerking when at low speed. Seems most common in a couple of situations. Going 25 mph and the truck is in 7th gear. Move the accelerator a little and it bucks and jerks. Same when in stop and go traffic. Had this issue for some time...

this is VERY inaccurate. There is no such thing as straight carnauba wax. ALL carnauba late waxes contain silicone of some type. It may not be labeled as such as these sneaky companies have names for everything. For instance - cyclomethicone is a silicone. trust me. I was a chemist for 15 plus...

52,000 on original Hankooks. Probably have a little life left but will be replaced soon.

Thanks for the input. I have read the Firestone Destination are good tires and I believe this is the tire that Tire Rack recommends for the Ranger. The ride quality of the Ranger with the Hankooks isn’t “offensive” to me as much as the noise is. I think these are loud tires and am looking for...

Thanks for the input.

I am sure this question has been asked before so forgive my asking it again. I have a 2019 Lariat Super Crew FX$ package Ranger. The truck has been more than I could have hoped. What I ordered, and what was delivered were almost the same. For some reason, my Ranger came with the $175...

The nut is in the same place as your missing socks.

Yeah. Simple Green didn’t work at all. This stuff is magic for a lot of application.

Don't know if anyone is following this thread but I came across a solution this past weekend that worked great. I was at our cabin this weekend and was going to wash the truck. I brought along all my cleaners to do a good job. When I went to look for the Mothers Tire Cleaner I mentioned...

Trust me, this is the only thing that has worked for me and I tried everything. The brown comes back and I just repeat the same procedure. I have about 45,000 on these tires and they won’t make 50k so I’m not going to worry about them anymore. It is late fall and soon early winter here so the...

Thank you. I’ll go try a soft reset. I’ll also be holding the dealership responsible for the parking aid issue. It was there. When I picked up the truck and wasn’t there when I dropped it off.

I have been having issues with my trailer light plugs. Dealer has fixed it once and the problem remains (corrosion in the module and wiring). Last time it was in I picked it up and my parking assist is not working. I called the dealer immediately on this new issue and they said they will look...

Here is something I actually know about. I don't know about the original tires that are white but I do know about the pics of the brown tires. The browning is the tire additives blooming to the surface of the tire. Could be any number of additives but it is common. Some tires are worse than...

Must have had a time release on that $100 bill. Went 32,000 miles and no ticking. Those line workers are tricky dudes/dudettes. I’m just glad it is gone and hope it doesn’t come back.

Thanks for the replies. Took out the cabin air filter and there were a couple of leaves in there. Put it back together and the noise was still there (SOB). Took it apart again and turned the blower to full speed. Ticked for a few seconds then stopped. Let it blow for awhile longer and put it all...

Just started happening the other day. I have a 2019 Lariat. When the fan comes on, it sounds like the old days when we used to take a clothesline hanger and attach it and a playing card to the spokes of our bicycle. Noise goes faster when I turn up the fan speed and gets lower. Seems to be...

I cleaned the plug on the Ranger. I had some time back sprayed in some dielectric grease and it was dunked up. Cleaned it up, no issues since.

Live in MN. Lots of salt. The browning started some time back and seemed to be independent of weather. not the best pic and the tires aren’t 100%fixed but it is a far cry from where they were a day ago

Thanks for the information. Very helpful. I was stuck as to how to get these tires clean. Maybe desperate is a better word. I tried everything I could think of and consulted others on how to get this stuff off. My tires were literally brown. Now that I have my tires back to black, what is your...

Not entirely correct. The real cause of why tires turn brown is a process called "blooming" This blooming, or tire browning, occurs mainly because of an element added to the rubber called antiozonant. It saves tires from premature drying and cracking due to the process of oxidation My...
