Dealer is the one that did the work, so they're certainly to blame. But I paid Ford for a safe vehicle, they failed to deliver, and then they failed to deliver again when they paid the dealer for shoddy work.
You could be right but some people are just caustic.
I'm in Central MA(Worcester area). I have a double-wide driveway from the street to the attached garage (30' give or take), a 15' single-wide from the street halfway to the attached garage, then double-wide the next 15' and then another double-wide from the front of the attached garage to the far side of the detached garage (another 60'). I've done it with a snow-blower, but I like sitting in a warm cab listening to music while I plow better. I just use the snow blower to do cleanup of the side and front walkways.
My dealer didn't smudge anything during the airbag recall, but did pinch the harness in the A-pillar, which led to my key fob being unable to lock or unlock the doors and the TPMS to not read the sensors, so that necessitated another trip back to the dealer to repair the harness.
Why I got rid of my Ranger...
Good to know and thanks for the heads-up. I'll have them print out the service records for me and quote an extended drivetrain warranty.
I like how some people say blame the dealer not Ford! B.S.! If Ford did the job “right “ in the first place, then none of these unnecessary posts would be here! Hmm… maybe I’m onto something. A Ford with no problems, ain’t gonna happen. No I’m not just attacking Ford, it’s happening at all the major auto companies nowadays.
Try Granger Ford for extended warranty on this site,they will be about half price of most Ford dealers
I used them for the extended warranty on the Maverick. Now I have to figure out how to cancel it. Maybe a phone call to them is in order....
are you going to add a Plow to that and plow your driveway with it???My Maverick has been pretty reliable but I can't ignore all the issues people have had as they accumulate miles or the endless stream of recalls. Not to mention, how easily these trucks seem to get totalled from what should have been minor accidents. I've also had occasion to find the bed length confining lately and I miss being able to plow my own driveway. So, I'm throwing in the towel.
On Saturday, my 15K-mile 2022 Maverick XLT Lux will be traded in on a 56K-mile 2019 Ranger XLT extended cab that was ordered with all the goodies (and then some) that the Maverick has. I was able to strike a deal that required making up only a $1677 difference in the OTD bottom line. I'm happy with that.
The concept was brilliant and the design was perfect for the niche it occupied. It's too bad Ford didn't take a bit more time to give it the polish and durability it deserved.
I might, at some point. The Ranger can take a light duty plow. All the major brands that I'm familiar with make the truck-side mounts and harnesses for the Ranger.
wow, that's a massive downgrade, and I think you're getting smoked on the trade. your maverick should be worth more than the ranger??My Maverick has been pretty reliable but I can't ignore all the issues people have had as they accumulate miles or the endless stream of recalls.

I agree...I checked the numbers for his zip code on Kelly's Blue Book...
