2011 FORD RANGER Complaints

WHEN SCHEDULING A RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG I WAS TOLD MY LOCAL DEALER WOULD NOT HAVE THE PART FOR 3 TO 4 WEEKS AND WAS TOLD TO TRY ANOTHER DEALER 15 MILES AWAY. FORD PUT ME ON A LIST AT THE LOCAL DEALER. THE RECALL(19S01 /NHTSA RECALL 19V-001) THAT I RECEIVED STATES BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER WILL BE REPLACED, THEY ARE ONLY REPLACING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND THAT A LOANER VEHICLE CAN BE PROVIDED FOR FREE. THE RECALL ALSO STATES DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN COMPLETED. FORD WAS NOT WILLING TO ISSUE A LOANER VEHICLE UNTIL MY LOCAL DEALER WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN THE REQUIRED PARTS AND WANTED ME TO SCHEDULE AT A DEALER 15 MILES AWAY.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 FORD RANGER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V001000 (AIR BAGS).

MY TRUCK HAS 55,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN BABIED AND NOT DRIVEN HARD AND HAS A TRANSMISSION LEAK LOCATED ON MY GARAGE FLOOR ' I FEEL THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED ' I LOCATED THE LEAK THIS MORNING ON MY GARAGE FLOOR ON 4/14/2019

I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALER ( TWIN PINES FORD) 3 TIMES 3-4-2019 TO 4-11-2019 AND YET HAVE TO RECEVE A CALL BACK. EVEN JUST TO SAY NO PARTS OR YES WE HAVE THE PART. IT IS AN AIR BAG A SAFTY ITEM UNDER RECALL19V-001

TAKATA RECALL AIRBAG INFLATORS RELEASED. A FEW SMALL FRAGMENTS STRUCK MY LEFT HAND AND THE SIDE OF MY NECK. I WAS GOING MAYBE 5 MPH IN MY DRIVEWAY.

FORD HAS TOLD ME THAT I CAN ONLY GET THE RECALL WORK PERFORMED AT A FORD DEALER. I LIVE IN JUNEAU, ALASKA. WE HAVE NO FORD DEALER AND THERE ARE NO ROADS TO JUNEAU. AFFORDABLE AUTO REPAIR IN JUNEAU (907-790-9332 RUSTY, SRVC MGR) HAS ALREADY DONE SOME OF THE AIRBAG RECALL WORK (NOTICE #19S01), BUT FORD HAS NOW PUT A HALT TO THIS WORK BY AFFORDABLE AUTO REPAIR AND WILL NOT PROVIDE DEALER SUPPORT TO ORDER THE PARTS AND REIMBURSE AFFORDABLE AUTO FOR THE WORK. THERE ARE MANY FORD OWNERS IN JUNEAU AND WE ARE BEING PUT IN DANGER, BECAUSE FORD WILL NOT ALLOW THIS RECALL WORK TO BE PERFORMED AT ANYWHERE OTHER THAN A FORD DEALER, EVEN THOUGHT WE HAVE NO FORD DEALER IN JUNEAU AND NO ROADS TO DRIVE HUNDREDS OF MILES AND DAYS AWAY TO THE "CLOSEST" FORD DEALER. FORD'S SOLUTION IN UNREALISTIC AND UNFAIR FOR ALASKA FORD OWNERS. FORD IS PUTTING ALASKA RESIDENTS IN DANGER. WE NEED IMMEDIATE RESOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE. THE FORD HELPLINE AND ONLINE CHAT HAS NOT BEEN HELPFUL IN BRINGING THIS TO A RESOLUTION..

THE ADVANCED TRAC LIGHT STAYED ON ALL THE TIME. TOOK TO FORD DEALER AND COSTED 100.00 TO CHECK LIGHT, THEY SAID WAS RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE, IT AFFECTED BRAKES, ADVANCED TRAC, AIR BAGS AND ANTI-TIP OVER DEVICE. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 3500 MILES ON IT. THE PART IS REDICULOUSLY PRICED!! 650.00 IS OUTRAGEOUS!!!
