1999 Ford Ranger XLT review from North America
"Basically good truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
DOME LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF AND DOOR AJAR LIGHT STAYS ON FOR A WHILE AFTER CLOSING DOOR, SPARK KNOCKS TERRIBLY AND I WAS TOLD PLUGS ARE 110000 MILES PLATINUM SO PROBABLY CARBON BUILDUP, MANUAL SHIFTER KNOB GEAR INDICATOR ROTATES WHEN DRIVING, RADIO DID NOT SHUT OFF WHEN I TURNED OFF TRUCK A FEW TIMES THEN NO FURTHER INCIDENTS, DOES NOT SEEM ABS WORKS AS REAR BRAKES STILL LOCK UP UNDER FAST STOPS, EXPECTED BETTER THAN 25 MPG, AC HAD A PROBLEM WITH CLUTCH I THINK, but IS OK NOW.
General comments?
I still have it despite the issues and have not found anything else I want to replace it with, a surprise.
