Hi, I'm brand new to this forum. As a birthday gift to myself (I turned 50), I bought a brand new 2020 Ford Ranger Lariat on Monday Aug 10. While test driving the truck, the orange wrench icon came on. They had a tech look at it and said it was a sensor that isn't safety related and to make an appointment to bring it in. So I did (long story short, the Sales Manager got it in sooner for me). Also, the notice popped up on myford pass app and it said Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power and states system has detected a powertrain or four wheel drive fault. I dropped the truck off last night and today they called today saying that the fault code that showed up on their end is something they haven't seen before and has escalated this to a Regional Tech (someone more experienced) to see what the deal is. They said it will be about 24-48 hours before they get a response from this regional tech. Truck drives fine but I wanted this fixed asap as I'm going on a short road trip end of next week. Is this something that has happened to anyone here?
