No OEM passenger speakers available for Ranger!!

[Craigstaff222]

My speaker on the passenger side went bad, so I contacted my local ford dealership (Holman Ford) who advised me that there are no passenger side speakers available at any dealer in the country.

Ford advised they are unsure when it would even be available. So now Im driving around in my brand new 2024 Ranger Raptor with a bad speaker.

I don’t understand how Ford constantly has vehicle issues on brand new vehicles and manages to stay in business. (Idiots like me keep buying them) if any one knows how or where I can buy one please let me know. Thanks!

aftermarket will vastly improve sound with a base speaker. You can replace all speakers relatively cheap

Great excuse to hop on crutchfield and do some upgrades!

Having been in manufacturing for decades; not having low frequency replacement parts as new models are being fielded is common practice.

Was hoping I didn’t have to for warranty reason but it seems like that’s my only option right now

I just threw mine out a couple of weeks ago. Wish I knew there was someone who might need them.

Great idea!
OP look in the forum or Facebook to see who just upgraded and ask if they can part with the old ones. I'm not ready but when I flip systems the factory usually goes in the trash. Even the B&O unleashed in this ranger, my 23 150 tremor and the B&O in my old platinum is cheap quality

But, but it happened to my Ford, so it's only a Ford problem.

Looks like a pretty cheesy speaker to start with (their B&O system is far from primo, I've noticed in mine), what about going with a better quality aftermarket set of the same impedance, with poly drivers, instead of what looks like some kinda cheapo paper resin cones?

I may just upgrade them I was trying not void warranty though but it sucks listening to a faulty speaker

I used these with a kicker 8” subwoofer.
Great improvement.

I was very unhappy with the B&O system in my 19 Lariat, after all of the sound deadening i also replaced all of mine except for the sub.
