This vehicle exceeds all my expectations, just upgraded from a Nissan navara test drove a Toyota hilux sr5 they have a long way to go to catch up, cant go wrong with the Ranger Excellent

Only just over 100,000 kms and fully serviced and just turned 5 years old, I'm not to happy with my ranger . WHY you ask - From changing my water pump after losing coolant and going into limp mode twice ???? ( didn't over heat, straight to service and new water pump ) Then losing more coolant ( straight to service, pressure tested, hose clamp replace?????) still losing coolant ????? Went through 29-31 litres over 1800-2100 kms ?...then limp mode every 2-3 kms last week so straight to service centre 3 rd time back to ford service . They don't know what is wrong with it ???? It might drive great but not too happy with the ranger and the ford service company that I brought the car from

I have warnings, car loses power some times when overtaking (A serious issue), starting issues, Collision assist issues etc. Ford said Diagnostics are perfect. My mechanic's (non Ford dealer) Diagnostics light up like a xmas tree. Ford will not repair wont return calls and emails. I think its a major cost to them. Am trading it in, let that dealer deal with it -the ute is crap.

Love it great strong car looks and performs well although a turbo diesel v8 would go great with this awesome package, just about drives itself with all of the gadgets and gizmos
I think if the colour selection went further eg winning blue in wildtrak would be top notch
thanks Ford

Only 5000 k so far very impressive.
Pros.
Looks, power, infotainment, plenty 12v charging,smooth steering

Cons
Bit chewy on fuel on short runs 12-13L
No start stop button..newer models might have
Hate the door charms

Overall so far very impressed and will continue to provide feedback as i go.

We have developed an issue with the left and right indicators? They are working fine, no blown globes, but when the steering wheel is turned half or more, they will flash at
Double speed, like a normal car would if a bulb has blown? Not sure what is causing this or if it is actually a feature we don’t know about? Please help?

Engine died at 46000km. Dealer has had vehicle for 7 weeks now and I cannot get Ford Customer “Care” to reply to any form of contact. Totally unacceptable. Seems to be a common problem. Ford can’t or won’t tell me if they have fixed the base problem so I expect that the same thing will happen again.

my 2017 ford ranger xlt handles well poor performance and extremely noisy to the point I hate driving it even worse when I pull my two and a half ton caravan vibration no power ford don't want to know the car has been back a number of times with no improvement at all they keep telling me its a soft ware upgrade the vibration is in the Drive Line !! and is getting considerably worse not a soft ware upgrade guess next stop consumer affairs.

I have purchased the 2018 wildtrak and am over the moon. It has so much features and power, tows my boat easily can not fault it absolute pleasure to drive. I drive the Hilux SR5 at work and look forward to getting in the ranger at the end of shift way more power and luxury .

I must have a lemon. Towing with this truck is so disapointing most i've towed is 1 ton in an 8x5 trailer .
My first thought was if this is all the power it has what will it be like with a 3 ton van behind.
People rave about power i havent found that button yet $60000 I Should be in love with it but am very unhappy.
Ford say no code faults so thats it.
Inquired today about putting it on a dyno to get some hp figures.
Owners are in love with these things
Please help whats wrong with mine.
Any thoughts !!!!!!!!

This is a great car it is a perfect car for me my dog in the back and kids in the car i love this car so much tech i love it great amount of friends to put in the car i love this car boo yeah thank you.

We sold our Hilux (petrol) and bought a 2012 Ranger 3.2TDi - the best move we ever made in terms of vehicles.
The Ranger out-performs the Hilux in every department. We tow a large boat on a bogey axle trailer from Sydney to the Central Coast on a regular basis. The Ranger tows the boat full of gear etc. with ease- rarely needing to drop down gears on some of the long climbs on the M1, whilst the Hilux was constantly changing gears on the same hills, at the same speed - usually around100kph.Fuel consumption is great - 20-25% better than the Hilux.
Very happy with the ride, equipment level and drivability- both on and off road.

this car is just perfect as i love this car. I like to have many different cars therefore, I know a lot about the cars. due to this reason I recommend all the customers to buy this car as it's affordable and very comfortable car that anyone can ever have. This car is big in size and has good seating arrangement.

If you have any issues with your vehicle see if it is in the above link at australiancar.reviews and send them a message with new non mentioned complaints.
I have had the 4x4 selector motor die, gearbox jerky and recently hard to get reverse, internal light blows, 2 windows work when they want to and squeal when they do and recently it self locks even after door opened, with most of this before 30,000km's and before warranty was up, but not honored by ford due to my geographical location...

2nd vehicle in this model. Last was xlt and now xls. Both very reliable with minimal issues. About 10l per hundred on fuel realistically and up to 17 when towing a 2.5t dual axle caravan. Tows well, even on standard suspension. Only complaint so far with the xls is no 12v outlets on constant power.
