2019 FORD RANGER Complaints

AFTER THE AUTO START STOP FEATURE ENGAGES AT A STOP, THE ENGINE BEGINS TO RE-START BUT THEN SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY ALONG WITH ALL ELECTRIC FUNCTIONS IN THE VEHICLE. CANNOT ENGAGE HAZARD LIGHTS OR RE-START THE ENGINE UNTIL THE THE BATTERY IS JUMP-STARTED. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS JUMPED, IT FUNCTIONS NORMALLY AND DOES NOT DISPLAY ANY BATTERY OR CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR. THIS HAPPENED ONCE AT A STOP SIGN IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA, AND AGAIN AT A RED LIGHT ON A MULTI-LANE BOULEVARD WITH SPEED LIMIT 45 MPH.

I I HVE HAD MY VEHICLE TOFORD 5 TIMES NOW FOR THE BREAKS. THE BREAK PEDDLE GOES WITHIN 1" OF THE FLOOR. WHEN STOPING THE PEDAL GOES BELOW THE GAS PEDAL AND WANTS TO ACCELEERATE AND STOP AT THE SAME TIME. WHEN STOPED THE PEDDAL WILL SLOWLY MOVE DOWNWARD TO THE FLOOR. I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND GET AQUAINTED WITH IT. AFTER ALMOST REARENDING TWO VEHICLES AND ENDING UP IN AN INTERSECTION I AM CONECERNED FOR MY WELL BEING WHEN OERATING THIS VEHICE. I WOULD LIKE A REPLACEMENT AT THIS POINT,

CORROSION PROBLEMS ON THE CHASSIS WILL BE CORRECTED BY DELAER. IT IS NOT THE FIRST VEHICLE OF THIS MODEL THAT I SEE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE MORE PHOTOS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 FORD RANGER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V839000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE.

WHEN TRYING TO SET THE CRUISE CONTROL SPEED THE VEHICLE WILL CONTINUE ACCELERATING CONSTANTLY. THE TRUCK WILL NOT SET AT THE DESIRED SPEED AND WILL KEEP GOING FASTER AND FASTER. THE ONLY WAY STOP THE INCREASING ACCELERATION PROCESS IS STEPPING ON THE BRAKE, MAYBE TURNING THE CRUISE CONTROL OFF. THIS HAPPENED EVERY TIME I TRIED TO SET THE CRUISE CONTROL SPEED WITH THE BOTTOM ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE WHEEL. I REPLICATED THE ISSUE TWICE IN THE PARKWAY JUST TO MAKE SURE THIS WAS NOT MY FAULT. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS TOTALLY UNEXPECTED, THE CAR WAS NEW.

I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM FORDPASS THAT MY 2019 RANGER WAS IN DEEP SLEEP MODE AND THAT I NEEDED TO MANUALLY START IT. I GOT INTO THE VEHICLE AND DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS NORMAL AND PRESSED THE START BUTTON. MANY THINGS HAPPENED SIMULTANEOUSLY. MOSTLY LIGHTS FLASHING ON THE DASH AND EVENTUALLY THE HEADLIGHTS SEEMED TO BE SENDING MORSE CODE. BUT THE ENGINE BARELY RESPONDED AT ALL. LATER I HOOKED UP A BATTERY CHARGER AND WHEN SWITCHED ON THE GAUGE BOUNCED BACK AND FORTH SO FAST IT APPEARED TO BE AN AIRCRAFT PROPELLER. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY.

THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOW IS DEVELOPING SEVERAL SNOWFLAKE LIKE DEFECTS IN BETWEEN THE GLASS. THESE ARE THREE TO FOUR INCHES IN DIAMETER AND IMPEDE THE SIDE VISION OF THE VEHICLE. FORD IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE GLASS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. THE SIZE GROWS AN 1/8 INCH A DAY AND DOES NOT STOP. THE SPOT IN THE PICTURE IS NEARLY DOUBLE IN SIZE NOW. *TR
