Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, hoses, or master cylinder, leading to reduced braking efficiency.

Worn brake pads or shoes

Over time, brake pads or shoes wear down and need to be replaced to maintain effective braking performance.

Brake rotor or drum wear

The brake rotors or drums can become worn or warped, causing vibrations or decreased braking efficiency.

Master cylinder failure

The master cylinder can fail, leading to a loss of hydraulic pressure and brake function.

Brake caliper issues

Calipers can seize or develop leaks, affecting the ability to properly clamp the brake pads against the rotors.

Air in brake lines

Air in the hydraulic system can lead to a spongy brake pedal feel and reduced braking effectiveness.

Engine misfires

The in-line 4-cylinder engine may experience misfires due to issues with the ignition system, fuel injectors, or spark plugs.

Timing belt/chain wear

Over time, the timing belt or chain can wear out or break, leading to engine performance issues or failure.

Fuel injection problems

The EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) system can develop issues with the fuel injectors, sensors, or fuel pump, affecting engine performance.

Cooling system issues

Problems with the radiator, water pump, or thermostat can lead to engine overheating.

Exhaust system leaks

Leaks in the exhaust system can lead to increased emissions, noise, and potential engine performance issues.

Oil leaks

Common areas for oil leaks include the valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, and front or rear main seals.

Transmission issues

The Ford Ranger may experience transmission problems, such as slipping, rough shifting, or failure to engage.
