Tl* the contact owns a 2019 ford ranger. while driving various speeds and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle failed to stop. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the local dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was 4,000.
When you fully depress the break pedal you can fully engage the accelerator pedal. this has resulted in an accident 2 days after delivery of the vehicle. on 8/22/19 shortly after noon i had returned from sioux falls to home . as usual i entered the garage letting the idle carry me in with my foot on the brake. i came to a stop before the parking stop. i started to release the brake to move up to the stop. the vehicle surged forward went over the stop and into the freezer and refrigerator pushing then into the wall before i could stop. i was the only witness, although my wife heard the impact. i was unhurt, air bags did not deploy. freezer and refrigerator totaled, back wall and door will have to be replaced, will need foundation work. damage appears to be cosmetic, but lower bumper needs replacement. farm bureau claim #[xxx] adjuster 515 344 6248, subsequently at a stop sign after ending in the middle of an intersection i dertermined the break issue. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tt
Takata recall- i was recently in a car accident with my 2019 ford ranger and when i pressed the brake the would not apply so i continued to pump the brake and would not apply as i approached the other vehicle the precollison assist turned on and still nothing as i held the brakes down causing an accident
I was driving my vehicle and trying to stop to avoid a collision. the system indicated collision detection was engaged; however, the brakes would not stop and there was a wreck.
2019 ford ranger purchased, noticed slight pulsation when stopping highway or city. continued to get worse to a point where i became afraid to drive it because twice on heavy braking pulsation was sever and i was afraid was not going to stop. situation was worse more truck was driven. notified service advisor of issue and that i had been really careful but then i notified him again and advised i was fearful of driving vehicle especially on wet road. took picture of left rear rotor thru wheel holes and found black spots in rotor. took truck in on march 19th, service advisor called and said the mechanic was going to have all four rotors turned. i told him that was unacceptable, the rotors and brakes need to be replaced. the situation was escalated to ford motor company, today march 26th the service advisor called and left message they were replacing rear rotors. have not been able to reach them back because i feel they need to also replace brake pads, for a proper mating process. he never mentioned front rotors agin as in previous dicussion. i orivinally advised them they should replace all rotors and brake pads. them tellong me they were going to turn all rotors makes me think that all the rotors are warped. also rear seat upper portion when released to downward position, is very hard to relock in upper position, which if not locked to cause seatbelted passengers nd seat itself to fly forward in a frontal crash.
