  1. Brake pedal fading when stopped.

    I have the soft brake pedal like many others. More concerning is the pedal fads while I'm stopped at red lights. If I apply light to moderate pressure on the pedal the truck starts creeping forward. I am not letting up on the pedal. Also, if I hold the pedal down with heavy pressure it gradually...
  2. Brake Pedal Clearance

    I have had my 2025 Lariat for about six weeks now and I am having a real problem with the clearance over the brake pedal. Wearing normal shoes my foot just barely fits between the pedal and the dash. Once I start wearing winter boots it will become a very dangerous situation. I have tried...
  3. Brake pedal travel is to far

    Hey guys, I haven't been on here in about a month or so, hope all is well with everyone. I have a question about the brake pedal travel , it goes down so far Is there a fix for that ? Sometimes when I first crank my truck I put my foot on the brake pedal to start it and hit the gas . My 03...
  4. Brake Pedal Groan

    At low speeds, my brake pedal makes an audible grown when I press it. There’s also a slight vibration in the pedal. However, the brakes themselves seem to work fine and there’s no pulsing that you would typically expect with brake pad issues or warped rotors. Having a very difficult time...
  5. Brake pedal noise! I have a sound clip. It drives me crazy! Took it to dealer twice and was told it's normal?!

    Every time I step on the brake pedal it makes a squeaking noise. Has anyone experienced the same issue? Even when the truck is not running. And Ford says it's normal due to the electric brake system. I was told that the brake system is not like the old ones, and there is no code or anything that...
  6. Brake Pedal Issues

    ...the other week & all 4 rotors are in good shape while 3/4 of the pads are all in great shape as well. the back right was a little leaner than the other 3 sets of pads but was still in fine shape. The truck has 25K miles on it & I feel like the brake pedal should be much more responsive overall
  7. What is this black piece of plastic above my brake pedal?

    See the black piece of plastic in the top right of the pic with 2 holes facing down. My shoe constantly hits it & it's really annoying. Wondering what it is & if I can remove it with no issues to any other components down there. If it's related to the AC/ heat & blowing air down there, I never...
  8. Brake pedal too stiff

    The 2020 ford ranger has the worst brake pedal feel i've ever experienced. Even my dads 2001 corolla has better brake feel. While most brake pedals start with little resistance then lineally increase the further you press the brakes my ranger starts very stiff then gets slightly easier as you...

    Has anyone noticed an excessive amount of travel in there brake pedal? My pedal will travel at least 3 inches before the breaks begin to bite. Is this normal?
  10. Brake pedal intermittently goes to floor

    Going down the highway my brakes became very soft, stopped at sheets to fill up and pedle went to the floor multiple times but still had brakes. Than returned to normal. Anyone experience this?
  11. Dear Aftermarket, Improve the Brake Pedal, Please!

    The brake pedal feel in these Rangers is a joke. Can and will the aftermarket do something about the brakes? Not just pads and rotors... but the pedal? Inquiring minds want to know...
  12. Brake pedal adjustment?

    These are pics of brake booster rod connecting to the brake pedal arm up under the dash on my 2020 Fx4. Has anyone ever adjusted here to achieve a slightly higher brake pedal engagement?
  13. Noise happening when I let off the brake pedal

    When I let off the brake I get this noise coming from around the pedal. Not sure how to describe it, kinda like humming noise. Uploaded a video to help out.
  14. Brake Pedal Travel GSB

    So on the 2019+ Ford Ranger Owners USA Facebook group, someone posted that there is a GSB for the spongy brake pedal in the Ranger. He said they measured the travel and bleed the system and that, in his opinion, fixed the issue. He said the GSB (General Service Bulletin) is GSB 21-7002. I...
  15. Fix For Squeaky Or Creaky Brake Pedal

    So this video was posted in another thread by @Quatakai about having a squeaky brake pedal. Mine does it too and not having time to take it in I decided to take a look. Well.. It's the pivot point grommet. At least mine was. If you start the truck, and lay down on the floor and put...
  16. Excess Brake Pedal Travel?

    The first thing I noticed when I got in my new Ranger was the brake pedal traveled about 30% down before brake engagement. Sales guy said if felt normal. My other vehicles have a small amount of pedal slack - 1/2" max before brake engagement. I recently noticed at a long stop light the Ranger's...
  17. Truck will start without foot pushing brake pedal

    This is the first automatic I have ever owned that will start without depressing the brake pedal. I remember some on my dad’s cars and trucks from the 70s doing that. I thought it was a safety issue so not to start the vehicle in gear and have it move. Maybe modern Rangers won’t start in gear so...
  18. Post Dealer Update: Rough Trans Shifting & Inconsistent Brake Pedal Feel

    ...Inconsistent Brake Pedal Feel (https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/brakes-feel-mushy.2124/) As far as the transmission was concerned, I experienced rough shifts between gears 1 and 3 when cold. Gears 4 - 10 were great with no issues, but gears 1 - 3 definitely felt harsh at times. I...
