    Ranger not sitting level

    Ford Ford Advice Ford Ranger Ford Ranger Advice Ford Ranger 2016

    Soon after I purchased my new 2016 Ford Ranger PX Mk2 I noticed that it does not sit level; it had a lean to the left. I measured it and it sits 15 mm lower on the LHS. I contacted Ford who said it was within specifications, but I am not happy that a $60,000 car aesthetically looks wrong, not withstanding possibly causing more wear and tear on the left. Have you heard of this problem with the Ranger and can you offer some advice?

    We have seen sufficient reports of lop-sided Rangers to believe that it is a problem. Some of the reports are of vehicles that are as much as 30 mm lower on one side than the other. Ford might say it is within specification, but I would suggest the specification is rather loose and should be tightened up. I would suggest you take your vehicle to a suspension specialist and have them measure it accurately, and suggest what might be done to correct it. Take that information back to Ford and request that thy take action to fix the car.
