2019 Ford Ranger consumer reviews

First time truck and Ford owner. Love the versatility of the vehicle. Great commuter truck on work days and great on the back roads when adventuring. Biggest complaint is the buzzing noise from the engine on surface streets. Mechanics and Ford Regional Manger say the “BUZZING” IS NORMAL and comes from the efficiency of the fuel injector, and is present in ALL THE NEW RANGERS and there is no fix. I find this buzzing noise annoying, particularly as I enjoy the quiet noise of the road (and it doesn’t sound cool). Slightly frustrating and brings down my overall enjoyment and pride in owning the vehicle, particularly when I have to explain the buzzing to passengers who find it annoying as well. I hope Ford puts a little more effort it finding a solution.

bought the truck new. Well worth the money, Love the way it handles, has plenty of power and has a lot of leg room. Is excellent off road as well

Has plenty of power for my towing and hauling needs. Good interior space and storage. Comfortable ride, compares with the cars I've owned but it's a truck.

Ranger has not even got to the 1st service and has gone into Limp mode , very disappointing as I was going on holiday with it next week.

I ordered a Ford Ranger from the factory and it took 4 months to get it delivered. I have had the truck for about a month with 1 thousand miles on it. The more I drive it the more I hate it. Tonight I just ripped the roof mount antenna off the roof and the wires are cut. what moron would design a truck that is so high and the back of the truck so jacked up that you can't reach into the bed and then mount the antenna on the roof so it can get ripped off by a garage door or any low object. Now the headliner will have to be removed to fix the wiring. I wonder how many times that will happen. The motor produces good low in torque so there is power but the 10 speed transmission doesn't really know what it is supposed to do up shifting or down shifting, it is slow to make up its mind and what is the problem with coasting? It feels like it is being held back. The technology package provides information just don't wreck the truck while driving trying to find the information you are looking for. Also now the tiny tach resides on the left side of the cluster. Interesting enough the interior doesn't have as much room as the 2012 extended cab Colorado that I traded in. The stereo does not sound as good in the Ranger as it sounded in the Colorado. For the record I was not happy with the Colorado for its lack of power and the 4 speed automatic that never knew what gear it should be in for the weak engine. The Colorado was far easier to maneuver during in town situations more like driving a car. The Ranger is awkward to get into and out of. When you exit the truck you have to slid out of the seat which will ruin the bolster on the seat in the long run and getting into the truck with or without and step is equally awkward. The Ranger 2 wheel drive with a sticker of over $33,000.00 leaves a lot to be desired and if I knew then what I know now I would have looked for a better truck than this. I regret the purchase.Wait and see what the Dodge Durango is like when it comes out.

Great handling and didn't take a lot to get used to the steering, etc. Lots of leg room and plenty wide for my husband and me. Great gas mileage and it is brand new!

I purchased a brand new Ford Ranger Wildtrak 2019 model. Waited 6 months for new model which I collected in early September 2019. Loved it the first month. Then issues - had to be returned to dealership. 10 days on and not fixed. Ford dealer customer service totally sucks. Still no loan vehicle. Diesel fumes in cab. And several computer / technical issues. Deeply disappointed.

Love the truck, but one fatal flaw - the air conditioning! The air conditioning system simply doesn’t keep up. It’s ridiculous; a serious design flaw. I can’t keep the vehicle for this reason alone. Ford has done nothing to help.

This truck met all my needs. Bigger than I expected. My wife an son loved it. I will recommend this truck to friends and family.

I wanted to get back into a not-full-size pickup after 9 years with a Mustang & Wrangler...no SUVs wanted, thank you! The Ranger is comfortable, lots of power, smooth transmission, and nearly all safety and luxury amenities are standard or available. I only wish it had available: sunroof, power front seat backs, power rear window, and tailgate damper.
