  1. Wandering Steering

    Mine doesn't wander at all. I have my tires at the recommended 30psi
  2. Stuck in Repair Hell, is my frustration justified?

    My dealer actually yanked a vacuum assembly off an in-stock Ranger to fix my Brake warning issue. I wonder how long they'll be sitting on a new truck until they get the part based on these posts. I also had a parking sensor go bad but they were able to get that part overnight. I guess I just...
  3. Heater duck, foot clearance ?

    5' 10 Here as well and have never caught my foot in the vent or even rubbed it.
  4. Check Brake System

    Well apparently the final solution to the problem was replacing the aspirator valve assembly. There is apparently a check valve in the vacuum assembly that allows air to flow in both directions. Mine was stuck closed thanks for stopping the flow of pressure into the brake booster sensor...
  5. Check Brake System

    Additional Update: After replacing the connector they took the truck out and finally got the error. With the warning lights still on they were able to trace the problem (hopefully) to a valve in the vacuum bundle. They're driving it some more today to verify. If this fixes it I will post the...
  6. Check Brake System

    Finally got it back in. They're blaming a loose connector right now. They're going to take it for a long ride to confirm
  7. Check Brake System

    Well, it's not fixed. Took a trip over the weekend to Maryland and about an hour in I got the error. "Check Braking System". Brakes still worked fine. Stopped and bought gas about half way through the trip and then no errors the rest of the way (about a 6 1/2 hour trip) after restart. On...
  8. WeatherTech 1st Row Driver and Passenger Floor Liners

    Don't worry, they clean up nice. I've had them very muddy and they have come up as new.
  9. Check Brake System

    OK, hopefully the last post on this subject... fingers crossed. After having my truck a couple of days, Ford directed them to start doing pinpoint tests at every step in the braking system. When they did this the brake booster vacuum sensor failed. This makes sense to me since the brakes...
  10. Ranger went kablooey

    This feels like a loose connector to me. Keep us up to date!
  11. Check Brake System

    Well, Ford kept my truck. They say they need the light on to change any parts under warranty. They're going to have a technician drive it on the same track I did and see if they can get the message. Gave me an F150 to drive... After driving it for 1/2 hour I know I made the right choice...
  12. Lariat seat peeling

    Actually also looks like a bunch of dirty people have been popping in and out of that car. Light colored seats at a car show doesn't seem like a great idea to me. I agree, doesn't look like wear. I've had leather in my last truck and my wife's Subaru and it's held up well.
  13. Tray Style Floor Liners?

    I got the WeatherTech mats the day I picked up my truck and they're great. If you snap them in they don't move a bit and they clean up great. I had Huskey liners in my RAM, and while they worked great they were very difficult to get out due to the sharp spikes on the back and were very stiff...
  14. Check Brake System

    Sounds like we have the same problem. I looked at the paperwork from the last visit and it said there was a stored code P050F which translates to Brake Assist Vacuum Too Low. I'm betting this is going to be the same result. Going to the dealer on Friday afternoon. Bernie
  15. Check Brake System

    Thought I'd give an update.. Drove the truck back to camp today and got the message again.. actually in the same stretch of highway which is kinda weird. Has no one else seen this message? Back it goes.
  16. Painting or Vinyl Wrapping the Front Bumper Valence?

    I can confirm that they are painted. I had one go bad that the dealer replaced under warranty. I went in for my initial appt and they sent me home because the sensor only came with primer and they had to send it to their body shop to be painted
  17. Tailgate Solution

    Plus there are times when you want to leave the tailgate down to haul something longer and the last thing you want is the light on in the truck while that happens. You could maybe wire it to one of the door sensors
  18. Pet Peeves

    I spoke with an engineer that I know at Ford. He said that using premium wouldn't make that much of a difference unless that station was using pure gasoline (no ethanol). I have found a station that supposedly provides pure gasoline in their mid-grade gas so I'm going to try that out in the...
  19. Tailgate Solution

    I have a Gator EFX cover and haven't had an issue closing the tailgate. It doesn't seem to have impeded the tailgate in any way.
  20. Pet Peeves

    How are you getting so many miles on a tank? I only get about 380
