Up for sale is my 2004 Ford Ranger. This truck has been nothing but awesome for the past 3 years I've owned it. I gave the truck a full tune up about 20,000 miles ago including plugs, wires, cleaning out the throttle body and intake system, lubing up any necessary components, flushing the transmission fluid, the power steering fluid, recharging the a/c, changed the air and fuel filters, oil, and oil filter. The truck got new drums in the back about 10,000 miles ago and the pads up front were replaced about 15,000 miles ago. The tires are all in good shape and have a good 40-50% thread left. I purchased the tremor package wheels and tires as that's not what originally came with the truck and it transformed the ride completely. Last weekend I rotated and balanced the tires. I also installled a new windshield on the truck about 3 weeks ago. It also has an aftermarket Kenwood unit with USB and auxiliary connections and Pandora capabilities.

I purchased the truck when it had just under 110,000 miles from a used car lot in Tennessee. I was told by them that the truck had been involved in an accident but they repaired everything and had the truck inspected to be legally drivable in Tennessee which it passed with flying colors. When I bought it, I had to get it re-inspected in Georgia to be able to register it and again it passed with flying colors.

That being said, this is a ten year old truck and it's not perfect. It has a few imperfections that are all minor but I'll mention them just to be as transparent as possible. The driver side door and fender have a couple of dents from someone opening the door and denting it in a parking lot. I wasn't able to catch them so I didn't get it fixed but the dents are not very significant and there's no paint peeling, just a couple of small dings. The tailgate has a couple of dents as well and there are a couple of minor scratches on the right side but not visible unless you're up close. In the interior, the only imperfection is a rip in the seat that can be seen in the pictures. Obviously, none of this is mechanical and all purely cosmetic and not visible or enough to be an issue for me as a daily driver.

This truck is in great shape. The engine pulls strong and shows no signs of slowing down. I haven't towed much with this truck since I bought it either, just my jet ski twice when I used to have one. It constantly gets me between 20 and 23 miles per gallon combined and has a more torque than 4 cylinder compacts out there getting similar mileage. Anyone that has owned Rangers in the past knows these trucks run forever. If you have any further questions, please let me know and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Ford Announces Free Brake-Pad Offer If Customers Stop By Dealers

Mon, Aug 4 2014

These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers. "We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts. Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1. "This program reflects our commitment to providing customers with an excellent ownership experience regardless of the age of their vehicle," said Frederiek Toney, President of Ford Customer Service, in the company's announcement of the offer.

Ford settles class action suit over defective Navistar diesel engines

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

The 2003 Ford F-Series Super Duty (shown above) introduced the 6.0-liter Power Stroke diesel supplied by Navistar, and while that is an engine Ford would love to forget, it's now one step closer to putting that particular problem behind it. Automotive News is reporting that Ford has settled a class-action lawsuit brought on by problems with this engine that started right out of the gate and ultimately broke up the 30-year relationship between Ford and Navistar.
Owners and lessees of 2003-2007 Super Duty trucks and E-Series vans equipped with the 6.0-liter Power Stroke are eligible for deductible reimbursements of between $50 and $200 from the original five-year/100,000-mile engine warranty, while Ford is paying out as much as $825 for out-of-warranty engine repairs. These repairs may include the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, EGR valve, oil cooler, fuel injectors and turbocharger, but are only covered if the components failed before six years or 135,000 miles.
In total, Ford has agreed to pay about 50 percent of the value of the repairs and deductibles paid by its customers who submit a claim before the end of this year, and $150,000 is going to the 16 named plaintiffs in the case; Navistar was not included in the lawsuit.

Again? Ford issues second 2015 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ seat belt recall

Fri, Aug 16 2019

In 2016, Ford issued a recall for 603,392 2013-2016 Fusions and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZs due to potentially faulty seat belts. Apparently, that wasn't the end of it. Ford announced another recall this week for the same issue, this time covering 108,399 2015 Fusions and MKZs. In both cases, the seat belt anchor pretensioners are the issue. According to Ford, "increased temperatures generated during deployment of the driver or front-passenger seat belt anchor pretensioner could degrade the tensile strength of the cable below the level needed to restrain an occupant." Basically, heat could weaken the seat belts, and in extreme cases, they wouldn't be able to keep up proper safety standards. Ford knows of at least one injury that has occurred due to this issue. The recall includes 103,374 vehicles in the United States, 4,002 in Canada, and 1,023 in Mexico. Possibly affected Fusions were built at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant between August 1, 2014 and January 30, 2015. The MKZs were built at the Hermosillo Assembly Plant between August 1, 2014 and November 21, 2014. As a fix, Ford says dealers will add an extra coating to the seat belt pretensioner cable for protection from the heat. If this recall might affect your vehicle, call your local Ford dealership and use recall reference No. 19S25. This news comes after Ford recalled 1.3 million Fusions and MKZs in 2018 due to the possibility that the steering wheels could fall off. Fusions have also been recalled due to the risk of rolling away.
