They have all gotten pretty bad around Fargo. If I ever get another Ford I'm going down to Houston for it. The lower prices and better service are worth the drive.
My Oct 2nd, 2019, built Ranger XLT has rolled away 11 times after I have shifted the vehicle into park and walked away. I got the truck on Oct 31, and have reported each time to the dealership and to Ford Mo Co. I also have witnesses that have seen this happen. The dealership refuses to fix the...
You're lucky then. I live in North Dakota and there have been a lot of people reporting the same issue. Both dealerships I've been to have asked if I park it inside at night and I've said no, because I don't have a garage. I was told that maybe the best solution to fix the issue is to get a...
I've suggested that to the dealership after reading your post above and they have told me that connector is for something else, not for any of the sensors in question. I don't have the dexterity in my arthritic hands to get to it unless I remove the headlight housing, which I don't want to...
You're stuck with it. I leased a Ranger XLT on Oct 31, 2019, and have had the same thing happen multiple times on a weekly basis. Mine also sometimes drives away after putting the gear shift into park, my 4x4 low range locks up the wheels and won't move, and I can only tow about a Max weight of...
A Ford customer care rep I've been working with said pedestrian detection is active from 3 to 50 mph and according to the description it should alert you any time someone is within a certain area covered by the windshield camera and sensors in the bumper. She explained that even if you are able...
This is the first web forum I've ever posted on so I'm not too familiar with the etiquette of it all I guess. I don't even have any social media accounts, unless this site is considered one. I didn't even pick up on why people kept saying things about Toyota Tacomas until I read what you just...
I never got abusive, I know I was frustrated and was sometimes short with them, partly because of the truck issues and partly because of the daily severe pain from my injuries when I was in the army. You can call them and see what they say if you want. I'd be interested in hearing what they say...
Thank you. That's exactly why I wrote on here, to vent about the truck's issues so it wouldn't stress me out so much. I didn't realize so many people were going to get so weird about it and trash talk so much. It's actually pretty funny reading all the comments trying to insult me though. All I...
Thank you for your suggestions, I appreciate it a lot. I've been keeping notes as best I can when it acts up so I'm hoping they will help at my upcoming service appt. I completely understand about the lawyer thing, my friend wanted to see if he could help out in some way, he not some big shot...
If someone can fix it that would be great, I just can't afford to miss any more Dr appts or work (and I can only work 1-2 days a week so missing a day sucks). I'm not sure why they weren't doing more to find out what is going on. I'm sure I looked angry, but they can see by looking at my license...
Why would both back wheels spin, there's no locker on the rear differential. I can see if my friend's kids would like to write in on here, they thought it was pretty cool that the tire was moving when it was in park. It's only done it when I've stopped on a large patch of ice or snow covered...
I actually do like the truck itself, just frustrated with what's been happening with it. If it can be repaired to operate as it should then I want to keep it, but after having it in 5 times already I wasn't sure if it was possible to repair it. But in those 5 times the only thing they did was...
Everything is stock. I've added weathertech floor liners, mudflaps and a hitch (no wiring since that was already there). Other than that I use reg 87 octane with 10% ethanol, except for every third or fourth tank I fill with 87 octane with no alcohol. Mobil 1 full synthetic for oil, only one oil...
Thanks for the information. I'll be sure to show your response to the techs on Tuesday and hopefully that will lead them to finding the cause. As far as threats go, that's not an issue since I was injured while in the army. It would actually be pretty comical if I did try to start a fight...
The lawyer is a friend who has handled some of my legal needs, will, POA, and stuff like that. He has been in the truck and driven it so he has witnessed what's going on. After the GM said they wouldn't allow me to bring it back for service he said he'd try talking to them. He called, left a...
Unfortunately the closest dealership is the one the truck is from, 60 miles away from my house. This is also the first time I haven't been able to pay cash for a new vehicle, the salesman and finance rep both said I have to come back to that dealership for service because that's where I leased...
Sorry if I'm not on here multiple times every day. How often should I check in? I have an appointment for the truck this coming Tuesday, and Ford customer care said they can't move forward on their end until it's at the dealership and the service techs complete a specific list of service checks...
Luther Family Ford, Fargo ND, is the dealership. I've purchased from them in the past, when it was under different management, and had great service. Ford customer care sent me to another dealership for service, but they were a tractor trailer dealership and service center and don't work on...
