Description:
Transmission on this brand new vehicle with less than 3500 miles is bad. Safety issue as well. Periodically you will go to press accelerator and nothing will happen. The truck will fall out of gear and will not accelerate randomly. I’ve had this incident occur when trying to get into the highway which is unsafe and I’ve had this happen on standard roadway as well. This is a big safety concern because of vehicle won’t go into gear and accelerate then it could cause rear collision from other vehicles on the road. In addition to this if you drive the vehicle, turn it off, and then a few hours later go to drive the vehicle again the transmission slams into gear so hard that the entire truck jumps. This Ford Ranger has huge transmission issues and after looking online many owners of this same vehicle have this problem yet Ford won’t do anything about it because the maintenance light doesn’t pop up on the dash despite the obvious and dangerous issue happening.
