Problems:
Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or calipers, which can lead to reduced braking efficiency.
Worn brake pads
Over time, the brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to maintain optimal braking performance.
Brake rotor warping
Excessive heat and stress can cause brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations and reduced braking effectiveness.
Brake caliper issues
Brake calipers can seize or leak, affecting the ability to properly clamp the brake pads against the rotors.
Electronic fuel injection problems
Issues with the electronic fuel injection system, such as faulty sensors or injectors, can cause poor engine performance or fuel economy.
Timing chain wear
V-shaped engines like the one in the 1995 Ford Ranger can experience timing chain wear, leading to engine performance issues.
Head gasket failure
V6 engines are prone to head gasket failures, which can cause coolant leaks, overheating, and engine damage.
Ignition system issues
Problems with the ignition system, such as worn spark plugs or faulty ignition coils, can lead to misfires and reduced engine performance.
Fuel pump failure
The electronic fuel injection system relies on a functioning fuel pump, and failure can lead to engine stalling or starting problems.
Vacuum leaks
Vacuum leaks in the engine can cause rough idling, stalling, and poor fuel economy.
Egr valve issues
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve can become clogged or fail, leading to increased emissions and engine performance issues.
Cooling system problems
Issues with the cooling system, such as a faulty thermostat or radiator, can cause engine overheating.

Problems:
Brake fluid leaks
Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, calipers, or master cylinder, leading to decreased braking performance.
Brake fade
Overheating of the brake system can cause a temporary loss of braking power, especially during extended braking.
Abs failure
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) sensors or module may fail, causing the ABS warning light to illuminate and potentially reducing braking efficiency.
Master cylinder issues
The master cylinder can wear out over time, leading to a spongy brake pedal or a complete brake failure.
Brake pad wear
Brake pads can wear out and need regular inspection and replacement to ensure effective braking.
Warped brake rotors
Excessive heat can cause brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations or pulsations when braking.
Brake caliper sticking
Brake calipers can seize or stick, causing uneven brake pad wear and potential damage to the brake system.
Brake booster problems
A failing brake booster can lead to increased brake pedal effort and reduced braking power.
Vacuum leaks
For vehicles with vacuum-assisted brakes, leaks in the vacuum system can reduce braking performance.
Contaminated brake fluid
Brake fluid can become contaminated with moisture or debris, reducing its effectiveness and potentially causing corrosion in the brake system.
