Incident was reported to me by an employee. Driving in traffic on a highway with normal, dry road conditions the accelerator pedal started moving down on its own. The truck accelerated on its own from 50 mph to 70+ mph. Applying the brakes the truck did NOT slow down. Eventually, the accelerator pedal corrected itself and started working normally. There was no indication on the dashboard of the issue. This could have resulted in a serious accident or death. The truck is waiting to be towed to the Ford garage for repair.

Malfunction/failure of vehicle ABS unit. Failure occurred intermittently and then permanently in the fall/winter of 2014. Vehicle is 10 years old but had less than 30 thousand miles, and has been garaged for its entire operational life. It took several months for independent mechanic to be able to acquire new oem ABS unit, implying that many other vehicles are experiencing this unit failure. Narrowly avoided several accidents due to brakes locking up during emergency braking. Receipt for repair is attached.

I have a 2005 Ford Ranger extended cab. I was driving it and I noticed that my brakes felt really funny so I brought it to my mechanic and he told me that the brake lines were rotted out, but more importantly that the frame was rotted out. The body mounts are rotted out, the shackles are about to fall off. He also said that the frame rails in between the leaf springs are about to break in half, and if this happened to me while I was driving I could have killed someone or myself. I am very concerned about my safety and the safety of everybody else driving a Ford Ranger that is not aware if its issue. I am also now stuck with a truck that needs work done that will cost twice as much as it is worth.

When appling brakes, just before you come to a stop the brakes make a noise and the brake pedal sponges at the end of the stop, pulling to the right.

The contact owns a 2005 Ford Ranger. The contact stated that while having routine maintenance performed on the vehicle, the technician notified him that the frame was completely corroded. In addition, the technician stated that the corrosion was causing the brakes to fail. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 56,000.
