I had a long heart to heart with the main guy at the dealership. He assured me this wouldn't happen again with the new vehicle. He tried to get involved with the Ranger but Ford was the deciding factor on that. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt this time. I've had good relations up until...
Last update on this issue. After all I've been through with Ford and their so called customer relations department I've decided to move on. I don't want to fight a lemon law fight at this time. This truck isn't worth it. The dealership is going to work with me tomorrow and put me in a different...
The dealer already admitted it's the compressor. But they are trying to say it's normal. I noticed this after three days of owning the truck. Already been down the blend door route.
I agree. I told customer relations I'm willing to discuss options if the dealership will play nice. I can ask about seeing another dealership but not sure I trust the other local dealer. They have a pretty bad rep locally.
Yeah, they kind of did a 180 on what was said before. Customer relations was telling they didn't recommend the buy back program now. A month ago it was the first they they would bring up. Leaves me feeling the whole deal is just a run around to keep me distracted.
I'm at work right now so can't look. I believe the blend date was in August. I'm not the type to accept a noise that I know is not "normal". The Ranger Lairat I test drove before I bought this one did not exhobit the same noise. I walked around it pretty thoroughly. I've owned 2018, 2019 and...
Just a follow up. As I said before the dealership has pretty much said they are not going to do anything about this issue. The service manager lied to Ford on several things. One was he told the customer relations rep that they offered to put me in a new vehicle which never happened. Ford...
I came from a 2022 F150 XLT with Back Appearance Package and it had leather seats. The new Ranger doesn't come close to the quality. If I remember correctly, the 2020 Ranger Lariat I used have had much better seats.
The dealership claims their hands are tied by Ford. Customer service is telling me it should be resolved. Whoever the service manager is talking to at Ford is a totally different person and none of them are communicating with each other. That leaves me in the middle. And I'm tired of it.
Just an update. Finally heard from the service manager this morning. I believe it was because I left them a bad review on my experience with the service dept. He talked like Ford is saying the compressor noise is normal. How they can say that is beyond me. At this point he believes they have no...
Believe me I will harass them to no end. They'll either fix all the issues or buy it back. No one should pay this much for a mid size truck and have this many intial issues.
I'll post anything I find out. What pisses me off was when the service manager was sitting in the truck with me he seemed very disinterested and just kind of ho hum about it. I'm very OCD about noises myself and now I have a popping and rattling sound from the left side dash area. I'm about done...
Yeah I tried your little trick. Noise is still there when A/C is turned on. Took back to dealership and had service manager sit in truck with me. He acknowledged there was a noise but didn't know if Ford would fix it under warranty. He was supposed to email them about but I have never heard...
I've had the same issue even though I always remote start the truck and it's happened after driving 15 to 20 mins. Usually I think it happens slowing down from say 45 mph+.
Just an update. Dealership has had my vehicle since Tuesday of last week. Called today and told me they can't replicate the problem. Claimed they have had their smartest tech on it and even drove it around with a laptop hooked up to it. All I was left with is they will put in a ticket with Ford...
The tach was fluctuating between 600 and 700 rpm. At times it sounded like it was trying to die. Also look in the lower RH corner. The adaptive cruise control is still on. Right after I took this video it started giving a seatbelt fault stating it needed service. I tried to shut it off with the...
