Getting close to a Lemon

[jorgeaguilera]

On day 3 of owning my 25, I got the “drive control fault service required” pop up. I’ve taken my truck back 3 times for repair and I haven’t even made the second payment yet. It’s been in repair for a total of 26 days. First they said it was the battery due to low voltage. The second time it was the pasanger drive height sensor. The third time it was the same sensor and the vdm module. Lasted a day and the same pop up message came back. Called the dealer and waiting to hear back tomorrow. Ugh. So, what happens when I’m driving? It kicks me out of whatever drive mode and settings I’m in. Won’t let me choose the settings again. At least that’s what I’ve noticed so far. Has anyone heard of or went through a lemon law in the ranger raptor out there yet? If I do end up with a lemon I want another RR. But do I pick one off the lot or someone else’s or do I have to wait for corporate to send one?

Check the sensor plug at your rear axle. I ran into these videos not too long ago... It would explain why your problem keeps returning.

Hey man I am so sorry this is happening to you. If that was my case I'd be .... well let's say I'd be a mess.

id say get a lawyer and start taking notes on theme with dates and times.

I'd stick with the truck your case seems to be quite rare. I'm an engineer and many times when you have problems the symptoms can stem from multiple issues and point to many things. Example: 2 issues cause 4 problems, etc.

stick with it, the truck is incredible man.

keep us updated and keep the faith.

They had a ford engineer come out and “fix” it but it didn’t take.
