Ranger

  • miles
Presently, my mileage is approximately 42770. It has started to exhibit vibration throughout the cab. It wasn't as prevalent during the cold and would only last about 30 seconds, after warm up, and around 70 mph. Now that it has gotten warmer, it is happening after warm up at all speeds. I haven't take it to the dealership yet, but have read reports of the problem with the same model year.

Rear passenger side door is hard to open and close. My seven year old can't open it without help on that side. Warning light comes on while driving sometimes when it is closed. After parking the problem causes the rear tailgate to stay on to drain battery because truck registers the door as ajar. Have to slam and relock several times to get warning and lights to turn off. When an object is in that door's pocket the problem is worse and it may make the alarm go off hours after parking. Often takes several attempts of opening and closing doors and turning interior lights on and off to get the truck locked with all the lights off.

Ranger

  • 100 miles
Extended cab model, rear driver door intermittently indicates door ajar. Alert appears while in motion, usually after a bump in the road. This happens after the door is closed by gripping midway down the frame. This warning can be prevented if the door is closed by gripping the top of the door frame. This does not occur on the rear passenger door. This has occurred ever since the vehicle was purchased new from a dealer.

Brand new 2020 Ranger supercab (extended cab) rear door ajar lights stay on constantly. Known issue with these trucks and body style, Ford should recall them and replace the door sensors. Could be a safety issue.
