Thread: I think we might have sorted the Ranger...

Yikes, that's scary... I'm not hearing a lot of reassuring things about the current selection of ute models. It seems they all have particular things popping up that are frequent across many owners, in car electronics and drivers interface seem to be one of the ones that are cropping up everywhere as a problem. Probably those systems all come from one or two suppliers who supply to every manufacturer.

I was near first to get the PX2 version of the last model ranger, waited for it with the 3500kg tow rating (earlier version 3250kg). That by today's standards wasn't that full of electronics but it's still given a hell of a lot of trouble - all core operating electronics and the same gear goes across many models (bosch) so those knocking Ford the issues with mine are all contract supplied parts just fitted by Ford. High chance the pressure sender arrived assembled by Bosch as well so likey that wasn't even ford's fault. This could just as easily been a hilux, Mazda etc etc but yes it was a very close run decision to just write it off and wear the hit to the books.
