Currently my 2023 wildtrack V6 - 3000 kms is in a ford service centre for the second time for replacement of the tail shaft, it’s the third one and this time they said it needs balancing, why it wasn’t balanced before is just stupid Ford have not fixed the vibration issue with its vehicles, it’s been going on now for over 12 mths, I’m very disappointed
@@johnsullivan6709 average for hilux diesel is 300,000 km, if you take care of it properly it can go way above than that You're right 40,000 is nothing
Same here in Philippines. I have the same issues with my earlier generation Wildtrak. When my unit was pulled out there is a misalignment. They tried to aligned it. In less than a year, there is a trouble in the tie rod/ball joint. Sad to say, warranty is very hard to claim. Until now, its not done. Per distributor, they are still waiting for parts. The reliability is very questionable.
I've had my new Raptor since November 2022. 12,000 ks, no "issues" other than about 6 recalls for electrical setting adjustments. Nothing broken, no odd noises, and everything works. Except the infotainment can play up like a pork chop, but seems to be doing that less and less. Maybe the recalls fixed some of that as well?
Wouldn't get a Ford. Don't get me wrong, look great, but I have little confidence in the build quality of these vehicles. From what I've seen, within 12 months, something mechanical, electrical or aesthetically fails or breaks. My last Navara lasted me 11 ½ years, 260,000km and never had anything go on it, that wasn't normal wear and tear. Sold it, ran into the guy sometime later and he'd driven it to the Cape (top end of Qld) and back, still running strong, even after he'd hit a pig and did some roadside repairs.
Had my v6 sport delivered July 22 and after the first day had a vibration from 50 kph to about 90 kph took it back to ford a couple of weeks later and they had it for almost 3 months and could not figure out what was wrong , ended up getting full refund !
I have a problem with my Ford ranger xl 2.2 2016 it's only have 189429kms on the clock and it's having a hard start and a power trail light for speed limit in 80kmh please help me.
We've had our Everest Platinum for nearly a year, 15,000 KMs on it. So many small issues and things that could be improved, all since new. A few that come to mind: handbrake doesn't always fully disengage, Matrix LED headlights blind oncoming vehicles, cruise control speeds up to 100km/h at the end of school zones (very weird bug), and some settings are reset after every service and recall. Dealer and Ford not interested in fixing anything.
5k km and so far no mechanical issues. The only bugs I have found are related to software; sometimes "my view" gauge selection goes back to the default view insted on startup, and sometimes it does not load the phone and voice commands properly.
Yes, actually. I own a Ford Ranger XLT from 2019. it has the roobar (bullbar) , canopy, antenna and everything. But when i was 4wding with my friends i heard something off. The back bit of the tray had come open, and couldn’t be shut. So i went to Ford service and they had to get me a new one.
I’ve got a faulty diff in my 2017 Mustang, keeps seizing up. Only 30 thousand k’s on the clock. Luckily Ford are replacing it outside of warranty free of charge due to low km’s and good service history. Obviously shouldn’t be happening but at least they’re being accommodating
Imagine if you weren’t who you are and they told you to kick rocks like a normal customer. Most of us don’t have a go pro to stick under our trucks and the dealers just say they were “unable to recreate the sound on the test drive”
Currently have my Raptor in at Ford for 4 recalls, checking rear diff, vibration when engaged in 4x4 (either front shaft or front diff) advanced headlights malfunction, front camera malfunction, Apple CarPlay issues, and sat nav issues, the modes toggle switch behind shifter being replaced, Oh and also trying to fix the horrible hands free from being extremely hard to hear with. The service guys so far have been great, but absolutely bummed about spending 100k and having all these issues. Found out the hard way with the headlight malfunction at night, when it comes up the headlights point down so much that you can’t see 20m in front of you.
I hear you. I am experiencing the same issue with my Gen 2 that I spent about 100k on. Don’t get me wrong. I absolutely LOVE my Raptor but the recalls on mine are something to do with the tailgate mech, something to do with the doors and now I just brought it in to have my rear differential fixed due to burning oil from an unknown leak that I apparently had that didn’t know about and now it led to an awful prob. Ugh. But Ford haters can say all they want. They can bash all they want. A Raptor in its glory is in its own class. Yea probs needs to be fixed but they will be and my Raptor will be a force to be reckoned with. Is Raptor owners will completely shut the mouths of haters. They hate because they don’t have one. Just watch. Soon as they acquire a Raptor of their own, the haters will become lovers obsessed with their Raptor. Go Team Raptor! Raptor Power! 🤭 hehehe 😈

So - have to ask - what does dealer delivery charges actually cover? Obviously not checking fluids etc in a new vehicle. $2k plus seems a bit excessive to remove plastic protection and give the vehicle a wash/polish😮
RR 2023. Leaking pass side rocker cover. Ford pressure tested it and can't find it. Said come back in 1000 kms and they will check again.Rear tail light condensation when washing it too. Ford said could not replicate. Otherwise it is freaking awesome so far.
I have had many trucks / off road type SUV’s. I currently have a 24 Ranger Raptor in order here in the US. I’m glad you got this rectified and all is well. UNFORTUNATELY shitty build quality and quality control with ALL brands are just terrible around the world. Sad 😢
Had the first batch of Everest platinum since last Sept. 13k so far. A lot of small issues with software (e.g. Android Auto connectivity, rear parking assist not working etc) but the biggest problem is for the car to lunge forward everytime it shifts into 2nd gear. Very dangerous in closed area like a carpark.
Next Gen Everest Sport V6 .... 7 months to fix one major issue, and numerous others all linked to it.. Ford AU even put a hold on the parts because they couldnt figure out what was wrong. Ive had it for 8 months, its spent nearly 3 full months in the shop. havent even done 5k km in it
My work mate’s 2023 ranger has issues with speed signs, one time it recognised a 70 as 200 he had his passenger take a photo to prove it and that was right in front of the Ford dealership. Then on the same road it put the brakes on because it saw a 10 km/h sign on a slip road adjacent to the road he was travelling on which was 70 km/h. He is yet to advise the advise the dealership of these issues.
1st time Ford owner. Purchased new 2023 Everest Sport V6, waited 9 months and it arrived mid Aug. Drove it home from dealer and added about 8km and had engine light turn on with error code saying NoX sensor unable to send message to ECU.. took it back to the dealer the next day, then instructed to take it to the service centre for scanning. Had to leave it there. After day 3, the entire NoX module was replaced and deemed faulty with both NoX sensors also changed. Pretty frustrating at the time, its been 3 weeks now and no issues and kinda over the initial ugly taste left in my mouth. Could have happened to any car really.
Got my raptor lemon lawed after the same issue had my truck at the dealer for 6 months of the 9 months I owned it . Got a trx and been happy as a clam for the last 3 years
I had two issues with my ford ranger raptor. First out of nowhere I got a 4WD low power light and the car lost its power. I had to stop and restart it which resolved the issue. The second is the main infotainment screen keeps glitching and restarting by itself, it happened to me many times during my 8K KM drive. I've sent it for both issues, they've just updated the 4WD system as there was an update and they weren't able to replicate the screen issue which fortunately I was able to record.
Yeah, with about 2000kms, front diff went tick-tick-boom. But it was on the previous gen Raptor. ‘Off-roading issues’ claimed by Ford until we stomped hard enough.
My problem is the parking radars which are really badly placed at the front and do not detect a 50 cm high pole when you are in front in the middle Ford does not want to do anything they say they cannot configure the radars even the trigger distance at the front 70 cm is much too short the camera only triggers at the front once if it exceeds 70 cm you quickly get an impact
I have heard that in kua SUV in one part of the transmission there are 4 screws in which one of them are proned to come loose at somewhere around 80k km, what the dealers do is they replace the entire gearbox
My fx4 max 2.0 bi turbo had the fan came loose had to replace new water pump/ housing, fan belt and fan. Then the following week the tow bar came loose whilst we were on holidays towing a camper trailer, two bolts fell out and all the rest were loose . Not a happy camper!!
same here with me, I've got a 2021year Raptor with 14500 miles on the clock that started the oil leak from the cylinder cover. it's a big question for the 2years old truck.
I seem to recall Miedecke motors doing the once over, including fluid/oil level checks with the pre-delivery once over( a “service” the dealers charge for). So I’m guessing one of two things has happened…pre-delivery check is a waste of money, or there is a issue with the diff that Ford will not admit too. If it’s the latter then Ford has thrown one of its dealers under the bus.
10 sp trans when towing only. Hunts some hash shifting in manual mode.They say it will learn when to shift in Auto mode but I'm sure if it takes 2 months or 6 months.
@@SayItWellOrShutup my theory makes more sense than yours. American car!!!😂😂😂 I guess you think the Aussie Ford Falcon is American also because Ford is an American owned company. 🤡 The Honda built in Canada is still designed in Japan. Unlike the Falcon or Raptor to the USA.
I have an 2023 ranger raptor v6, and now I’ve a problem with 10speed transmission, sometimes it hesitates to change the gear and I get a yellow warning light in the dash 😮💨 I’m so sad
That should’ve been checked pre delivery to you. Anyone simply assuming all fluids done in manufacture are 100% guaranteed, do not ever believe that. Once delivered to the dealer it’s wise to check all fluid levels pre delivery and put on the hoist doesn’t take long to check the diffs😉
As someone in the comment section has mentioned , this major failure can be blamed on the Ford Dealer Australia along with the Ford Asian factory Thailand , a simple check that all fluids are correct before delivery isn't rocket science , but apparently it is and why there is no Auto manufacturing in this country along with everything else , too much of an effort .
Had my raptor loose the gas out of aircon. Faulty seal in a plug in the condenser receiver dryer. First raptor to do it at my dealership but has had 2 rangers with same problem.
Which diff is that ? The US Rangers have a dana witg a cast iron center section, but many trucks sold elsewhere have a stamped steel, clamshell construction.
Mistakes do happen, its how it is handled what matters. Yes its a inconvenience but they took ownership of the mistake and fixed it. You can't ask for better treatment then a company owning up to their mistakes. So why are you upset?
Most new cars have issues but Ford seems to have the most. Hopefully the next generation Land Cruiser Prado will be reliable because that will be my next vehicle. The 2.8 is tried and tested but not sure about the 8 speed gearbox
Day after I bought mine it threw an engine code, brought it in to service for an inspection... apparently it's missing an "intake temp sensor" we'll see how it goes after the 30th when I bring it in
We deal with the same stupid shit in America. The lack of quality control in these factories makes me wonder why we pay so much for a car if you can’t even be put together correctly.
STILL HAVEN’T TAKEN DELIVERY!! Ordered in April 22. Initial delivery date was November 22. Then January 23. Then April 23. Then the stock number Ford issued me was changed for some reason. Then delivery was scheduled July 23. The ship carrying my truck arrived in port here in Australia on the 4th August & subsequently my truck has been sitting on the docks here in Sydney ever since. That’s 2 weeks ago! Apparently CEVA have a massive back log or something? Titan Ford STILL can’t give me a delivery date. It’s just been one bullshit excuse after another!…. Yet I’ve got mates that ordered their truck 6 months after me & have already taken delivery months ago. You hear rumours of brown paper bags exchanging hands at dealerships etc. but you just don’t know. Worst new car buying experience of my life! Proper ridiculous! Ford Australia need to do better.
My ranger raptor 2023 has the same issue, however even after replacing the diff, the sound remains. My car has been in the UAE Ford dealer workshop for 5 weeks!
mate i saw you doing burnouts with it when you got it and mentioned at the time it will blow up soon which it did, you didnt give me credit for that, buy a toyota not fancy but more reliable
Yes! Just now! I had to take in my Gen 2 Raptor in. There’s was burning oil smell coming from my diffs and some weird fkn noises. Quite upset about it frankly
Hello, I own a new 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor, and I'm encountering significant vibrations while driving, particularly at 80 km/h, but the issue persists at all speeds. The vibration is consistently present, and though it slightly improves after the car warms up, the cause, whether it's related to the engine, tires, shaft, or springs, remains unidentified, and Ford has been unable to pinpoint the reason.
Mitsu Strada Phils, turbo ic outlet hose holed on the steeeing hose clamp/bracket under it at 5kkm .. install clearance issue. Replaced by dealer i paid for the part to expedite saving the environmwnt from smoke 😂
My dad brought a new ranger xlt and had that many problems (gearbox issues, randomly vibrating when at 60 ect ) that he actually got rid of it with less then 10000 on the odometer. Ford Australia customer service was a joke and eventually he gave up ..
I have a really loud ticking noise on start up for about 5 or 10 secs... the timing computer needs replacing will take over 8months to get part in.. or they can take my car off road and it may take only 3 months.. complete bullshit.
I drive a 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4 x 4 off road and my truck was clunking like a mofo straight from the factory so I decided to change my fluids and I put amsoil full synthetic in the rear diff, front diff, transfer case & manual transmission, my truck sounds totally different it's so smooth now the biggest difference came from when I change the "rear diff fluid"... Truck only had 5K miles & I'm the 1st owner & the fluid was already smoked looking. I'm not a laboratory but I know what dirty shity oil looks like. Toyota wants you to change your fluid every 30k in your diffs I don't think they use a synthetic fluid. Amsoil is 💯% synthetic!
My Raptor broke on 2800 km Broken valve spring… major service After repair broke again, this time smoke from the engine! Gasket cover broken/ not replaced, maybe wrongly by first mechanic. So after 3000 km my raptor was a month in for repairs.
Still doesn't excuse the fact that its a brand new vehicle delivered with an under filled diff? Diff oil doesn't just magically disappear or run low from harder use, its 100% Ford's fault.
Pal it's not just highway vehicles I'm a diesel tech we have took delivery of 3 brand new John Deere 344 wheel loaders everything was low engine oil hydraulic oil not everything greased nobody takes pride in their work anymore!!!
PJ series 1 Ranger brand new, had incorrectly fitted Turbo seals, ended up needing Engine Replacement 3 months in Ownership. Dealers tried to refuse, and blamed Customer. ACCC gave them a can of whoop-ass. Finally replaced, car sold straight away, never bought a Ford ever since, poor Dealership Service in Mackay
Lucky for you, imagine if this happened to an unknown customer..

Really I was thinking about buying the 2024 Everest. Should I go with the Prado instead?

My work mate’s 2023 ranger has issues with speed signs, one time it recognised a 70 as 200 he had his passenger take a photo to prove it and that was right in front of the Ford dealership. Then on the same road it put the brakes on because it saw a 10 km/h sign on a slip road adjacent to the road he was travelling on which was 70 km/h. He is yet to advise the advise the dealership of these issues.
1st time Ford owner. Purchased new 2023 Everest Sport V6, waited 9 months and it arrived mid Aug. Drove it home from dealer and added about 8km and had engine light turn on with error code saying NoX sensor unable to send message to ECU.. took it back to the dealer the next day, then instructed to take it to the service centre for scanning. Had to leave it there. After day 3, the entire NoX module was replaced and deemed faulty with both NoX sensors also changed. Pretty frustrating at the time, its been 3 weeks now and no issues and kinda over the initial ugly taste left in my mouth. Could have happened to any car really.
Typical Ford 🙄Go Hilux ✊
😂 I rebuilt plenty of Hilux gearbox’s under warranty. They all have their issues man!
@@deanwallace1680not as much as Ford rangers and Everest. Lemons 💯
Ford quality at its best
you get what you get when you buy most of these overly expensive
💩📦's and you end up being the Guinea pig.
Got my raptor lemon lawed after the same issue had my truck at the dealer for 6 months of the 9 months I owned it . Got a trx and been happy as a clam for the last 3 years
No issues yet with the ever so reliable 2l ;)
I had two issues with my ford ranger raptor. First out of nowhere I got a 4WD low power light and the car lost its power. I had to stop and restart it which resolved the issue. The second is the main infotainment screen keeps glitching and restarting by itself, it happened to me many times during my 8K KM drive. I've sent it for both issues, they've just updated the 4WD system as there was an update and they weren't able to replicate the screen issue which fortunately I was able to record.
My 2022 maverick has been in the shop more than on the road when I purchased it about 2 years ago. I will be going with Toyota in the future.
Yeah, with about 2000kms, front diff went tick-tick-boom. But it was on the previous gen Raptor.
‘Off-roading issues’ claimed by Ford until we stomped hard enough.
I mean here in Canada pretty much everybody I know it owns a ford has had to deal with factory defects recalls so it's quite common over here
My problem is the parking radars which are really badly placed at the front and do not detect a 50 cm high pole when you are in front in the middle Ford does not want to do anything they say they cannot configure the radars even the trigger distance at the front 70 cm is much too short the camera only triggers at the front once if it exceeds 70 cm you quickly get an impact
Most frustrating car to be around on the road. It's like an emblem to dystopia in my opinion.
Gald you had an easy time with the servicing though.
I have heard that in kua SUV in one part of the transmission there are 4 screws in which one of them are proned to come loose at somewhere around 80k km, what the dealers do is they replace the entire gearbox
My fx4 max 2.0 bi turbo had the fan came loose had to replace new water pump/ housing, fan belt and fan. Then the following week the tow bar came loose whilst we were on holidays towing a camper trailer, two bolts fell out and all the rest were loose . Not a happy camper!!
Almost 12 months on the raptor. Nil mechanical issues so far. Still love it.
same here with me, I've got a 2021year Raptor with 14500 miles on the clock that started the oil leak from the cylinder cover. it's a big question for the 2years old truck.
Everyone I know that has the current model ranger has had issues, blown motor, blown turbo, oil to sumo line split. Gear box blown after not many kms.
I seem to recall Miedecke motors doing the once over, including fluid/oil level checks with the pre-delivery once over( a “service” the dealers charge for). So I’m guessing one of two things has happened…pre-delivery check is a waste of money, or there is a issue with the diff that Ford will not admit too. If it’s the latter then Ford has thrown one of its dealers under the bus.
10 sp trans when towing only. Hunts some hash shifting in manual mode.They say it will learn when to shift in Auto mode but I'm sure if it takes 2 months or 6 months.
American vehicles keep earning that solid reputation, man the Japanese car manufacturers have a lot to learn.
😂😂 you think japanese are worst then American or European car
Developed in Australia and built in Thailand. Not real sure you know what you’re talking about.😂
@@deanwallace1680 Oh I’m sure you know better since a Honda built in Canada is now Canadian not Japanese anymore. Awesome logic you have. 😂
@@SayItWellOrShutup my theory makes more sense than yours. American car!!!😂😂😂 I guess you think the Aussie Ford Falcon is American also because Ford is an American owned company. 🤡 The Honda built in Canada is still designed in Japan. Unlike the Falcon or Raptor to the USA.
@@deanwallace1680 like I said, your theory is solid. 😂
Lucky you have a popular youtube channel or they would have told you to get stuffed.
Noted .....good sir,top up differential oil on buying one.
I have an 2023 ranger raptor v6, and now I’ve a problem with 10speed transmission, sometimes it hesitates to change the gear and I get a yellow warning light in the dash 😮💨 I’m so sad
That should’ve been checked pre delivery to you. Anyone simply assuming all fluids done in manufacture are 100% guaranteed, do not ever believe that. Once delivered to the dealer it’s wise to check all fluid levels pre delivery and put on the hoist doesn’t take long to check the diffs😉
As someone in the comment section has mentioned , this major failure can be blamed on the Ford Dealer Australia along with the Ford Asian factory Thailand , a simple check that all fluids are correct before delivery isn't rocket science , but apparently it is and why there is no Auto manufacturing in this country along with everything else , too much of an effort .
Had my raptor loose the gas out of aircon. Faulty seal in a plug in the condenser receiver dryer. First raptor to do it at my dealership but has had 2 rangers with same problem.
Which diff is that ? The US Rangers have a dana witg a cast iron center section, but many trucks sold elsewhere have a stamped steel, clamshell construction.
Mistakes do happen, its how it is handled what matters. Yes its a inconvenience but they took ownership of the mistake and fixed it. You can't ask for better treatment then a company owning up to their mistakes. So why are you upset?
Most new cars have issues but Ford seems to have the most. Hopefully the next generation Land Cruiser Prado will be reliable because that will be my next vehicle. The 2.8 is tried and tested but not sure about the 8 speed gearbox
Day after I bought mine it threw an engine code, brought it in to service for an inspection... apparently it's missing an "intake temp sensor" we'll see how it goes after the 30th when I bring it in
We deal with the same stupid shit in America. The lack of quality control in these factories makes me wonder why we pay so much for a car if you can’t even be put together correctly.
STILL HAVEN’T TAKEN DELIVERY!! Ordered in April 22. Initial delivery date was November 22. Then January 23. Then April 23. Then the stock number Ford issued me was changed for some reason. Then delivery was scheduled July 23. The ship carrying my truck arrived in port here in Australia on the 4th August & subsequently my truck has been sitting on the docks here in Sydney ever since. That’s 2 weeks ago! Apparently CEVA have a massive back log or something? Titan Ford STILL can’t give me a delivery date. It’s just been one bullshit excuse after another!…. Yet I’ve got mates that ordered their truck 6 months after me & have already taken delivery months ago. You hear rumours of brown paper bags exchanging hands at dealerships etc. but you just don’t know. Worst new car buying experience of my life! Proper ridiculous! Ford Australia need to do better.
My ranger raptor 2023 has the same issue, however even after replacing the diff, the sound remains. My car has been in the UAE Ford dealer workshop for 5 weeks!
my raptor has issues when drive on low speed （under 50 km）some time the vehicle shakes a bit for no reason, I haven’t got that checked yet.
Olá, tenho uma Ranger V6 XLT a 1 mês, não tenho problemas até o momento! Boa sorte!
mate i saw you doing burnouts with it when you got it and mentioned at the time it will blow up soon which it did, you didnt give me credit for that, buy a toyota not fancy but more reliable
toyotas can't do burnouts so yea get one
1995 HDJ80 with 350k kms and only had to fill up diff every single time no issues
@@jasonbrown1263yep, did a heap of engines in them when I worked at Toyota. Also gearbox rebuilds.
The pre-delivery inspection should have picked this up!
Yes! Just now! I had to take in my Gen 2 Raptor in. There’s was burning oil smell coming from my diffs and some weird fkn noises. Quite upset about it frankly
Hello, I own a new 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor, and I'm encountering significant vibrations while driving, particularly at 80 km/h, but the issue persists at all speeds. The vibration is consistently present, and though it slightly improves after the car warms up, the cause, whether it's related to the engine, tires, shaft, or springs, remains unidentified, and Ford has been unable to pinpoint the reason.
Mitsu Strada Phils, turbo ic outlet hose holed on the steeeing hose clamp/bracket under it at 5kkm .. install clearance issue. Replaced by dealer i paid for the part to expedite saving the environmwnt from smoke 😂
Oh dear. Here in SA, we are not as lucky to have good or even decent service from ford SA.
My dad brought a new ranger xlt and had that many problems (gearbox issues, randomly vibrating when at 60 ect ) that he actually got rid of it with less then 10000 on the odometer. Ford Australia customer service was a joke and eventually he gave up ..
I have a really loud ticking noise on start up for about 5 or 10 secs... the timing computer needs replacing will take over 8months to get part in.. or they can take my car off road and it may take only 3 months.. complete bullshit.
Ongoing problems with crank position sensor, bent axle, clicking transmission, whole in the radiator to name a few...
I drive a 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4 x 4 off road and my truck was clunking like a mofo straight from the factory so I decided to change my fluids and I put amsoil full synthetic in the rear diff, front diff, transfer case & manual transmission, my truck sounds totally different it's so smooth now the biggest difference came from when I change the "rear diff fluid"... Truck only had 5K miles & I'm the 1st owner & the fluid was already smoked looking. I'm not a laboratory but I know what dirty shity oil looks like. Toyota wants you to change your fluid every 30k in your diffs I don't think they use a synthetic fluid. Amsoil is 💯% synthetic!
My Raptor broke on 2800 km
Broken valve spring… major service
After repair broke again, this time smoke from the engine! Gasket cover broken/ not replaced, maybe wrongly by first mechanic.
So after 3000 km my raptor was a month in for repairs.
Aren’t there online videos of you doing circle work in it and what does the fine print in the warranty say about that?
Still doesn't excuse the fact that its a brand new vehicle delivered with an under filled diff? Diff oil doesn't just magically disappear or run low from harder use, its 100% Ford's fault.
Pal it's not just highway vehicles I'm a diesel tech we have took delivery of 3 brand new John Deere 344 wheel loaders everything was low engine oil hydraulic oil not everything greased nobody takes pride in their work anymore!!!
I wanted to buy raptor then had problems with my px3 wildtrak and dealing with ford when u have problems is not pleasant 😢looking at other cars now
What did they say about you having the difflock on and drifting?
PJ series 1 Ranger brand new, had incorrectly fitted Turbo seals, ended up needing Engine Replacement 3 months in Ownership. Dealers tried to refuse, and blamed Customer. ACCC gave them a can of whoop-ass. Finally replaced, car sold straight away, never bought a Ford ever since, poor Dealership Service in Mackay
All vehicle companies make mistakes, the good companies stand behind their product.
Would you still buy one knowing what you know now about your raptor???
Was always told never to buy something found on rubbish dump that goodness I've listened
Every American car I ever bought had some defect built in and I'm old and I had a lot of cars.
This happens with a decent amount of new cars lately. Take the Jimny's transfer case chain for example 🤷♂️
