This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
: the contact stated while driving at any speed a squeaking noise came from the front of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the upper and lower control arms, tie rods and bearings were replaced.
At 30000, the first serpentine belt was replaced. The dealer said there was nothing they could do because the belt was not covered under the warranty. The belt has been replaced twice more since then, and the vehicle only has 52000 miles. Around 40000 miles, the front suspension started clunking every time you hit a bump. The mechanic who inspected the front end stated that the front suspension bushings are what is causing the clunk.
After reading other customer complaints regarding the Ford Ranger, I feel I must repair the front wheels on my truck. The front wheels started making loud noises when they turned left or right.. I was told the wheel bearings needed replacing. This is expensive. This car only has $27,000 miles on it and replacing the wheel bearings sound a little to major for a low mileage car. Yet for my safety and others I need to have this done.
