I believe that the drive belt in most Ford Ranger are pushed to far inn. When water gets on the belt it will squel for the longest time. I took my Ranger to the local mechanic and he pulled one of the drive pullys forward3/4 of an inch and I havent had the problem since. I have neighbors with the same problem and I have heard quite a few Ranger drive by that sound like this./

Bill pierre Ford of seattle Washington, misusing the global positioning system. Vehicle is fully paid for, management continues to track vehicle, harassing myself and other customers. Dealer accounting is inaccurate, did not credit all payments, and after request to void extended warranty, did not reduce contract price as agreed.
