2003 Ford Ranger XLT 4.0
Summary:
Absolute junk!!!
Faults:
Won't start-Steering-seat belts.
General Comments:
This truck is absolutely a piece of junk. Bought it brand new off the lot. Have had the fuel pump replaced 3 times and an inertia switch. I am afraid to drive it anywhere due to it might not start when I come back to it.
The entire rack and pinion steering system had to be replaced and it now feels like it is having steering problems again. Never ever been in a wreck with this truck. Only has 16,000 miles right now.
Bad enough you say? Now I get in and the seat belt will not lock in the buckle... Ford scares me. If you have a lot of money and do not care if your vehicle runs or not... buy one of these.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

I can believe that on a one-off basis a particular ford Ranger might have problems. However I have a '96 Ford Ranger XL and with 233,000 miles on it, it is still going strong! It's without a doubt the best truck I have ever owned (by far) and you can be sure my next truck will be a Ranger!
