This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The 1998 Ford Ranger was part of an August 2007 recall because of a cruise control wiring harness issue. We have been told since then, that no parts were available, don't park vehicle near a structure, bring the vehicle in to have cruise control disconnected, and parts should be available in January. Well, it's nearly ground hog's day, and guess what? nothing has been done to supply parts. Ford no doubt is still building new vehicles and putting wiring harnesses in them, but they don't take the recall seriously. No wonder they're not a viable automobile entity any more. Bring on the europeans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
