problem #2

Jan 232006

Ranger 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 47,530 miles
: the contact stated the brakes lock up and have to be pumped to work properly. When the rear wheels were removed, the brakes fell apart. The front brake pads and shoes have been replaced twice. The rear brake pads, shoes, and drums have been replaced once. These components must be replaced every 20,000 miles. The dealership determined this is how the brakes were manufactured.
