I'm not familiar with your state's lemon laws and if your truck qualifies, but do wonder why Ford hasn't simply replaced your engine. That would definitely be cheaper than replacing the entire vehicle.

A different dealer? WTH? So they want you to spend your time and money going to a different dealer? That's bullshit.

Ask the "Specialist" to get you another Ranger to drive and tell him to take the defective one to whatever dealership he wants.

I continue to be amazed at how major car companies openly admit to it's loyal customers that there is an issue at a dealership, by asking said customers to find a different dealership.

This is your fight, you got screwed, make them make it right. " hell a lawyer would probably take the case jut to get to bill Ford for their f*ck up........... just my two cents. good luck !

The dealer has told me that the 2.3L for the Ranger is not available as a replacement.

Well, the dealer is 20+ miles away from my home and 42+ miles away from where I work. Can't go there everyday, but I do call them quite a bit.

Have you tried putting a tailgate damper on it yet? j/k

I have to say you have been very patient throughout all this and I hope they fix this situation to your satisfaction. Good Luck with it.
You're opening up a whole other can-o-worms here, especially if the Neighborhood Damper Committee finds out (@AzScorpion )?

Wow.... So Sorry for your hassles. I hope you get it resolved without any more major hassles.
My ranger is currently at the dealer for the same issue. My 1st visit though. Keeping my fingers crossed that it gets fixed without a huge issue. So far, its about the only major problem I have had.

Just an FYI: after dealing with BMWNA over a failed subframe on my BMW, I discovered at least 6 "fake" accounts on bimmerforums.com held by BMWNA customer service reps in their New Jersey cyber office. These users offered false advice, bad fixes, and elicited information that ultimately voided warranties and removed my specific 328Ci from a class-action lawsuit. I received a C&D order when I posted all of my IP-linked-to-username proof, showing posts suggesting erroneous or damaging advice from BMWNAs IP block.

I bring this up because it's in Fords best interest to monitor these boards as well. Be mindful of what you share regarding your specific truck. If it is something you wouldn't share with your dealer, don't share it here.
