At approx. 26,500 miles vehicle made popping/clunk sound accompanied by a jerking movement when turning. Especially slow turns after making a stop. Sound came from rear end. 1 or both rear tires would bind in slow corners and skid. Ford dealer confirmed broken gears in differential. 2002 Ranger ext. Cab with manual trans, 4 cyl, 2wd. $1,650 to repair. Ford will not assist in paying for any part of this. Evidently Ford is satisfied with their bread and butter trucks failing so quickly. This is how they lose a customer for life, by not standing behind their vehicles. Too many reports of this failure for it not to be taken care of by Ford. Very angry, Ford, your huge losses are well deserved.
I have a 2001 Ford Ranger 4-wheel drive off road. It has 22. 000 miles on it. I have driven it approximately 10 (ten) miles in 4-wheel, never off-road. I had all oils changed and analysed to ensure no hidden problems. The results are: transfer case (first test) abnormal amount of copper--critical amount of aluminum--critical amount of silicon. Secont test--sikicon levels high--wear metals high--front differential--modearqate levels of dirt--wear metals high--rear differential--nickel level appears high---transmission--test indicate no corrective action--engine--tests indicate no corrective action (I have changed oil and filter 7 times). Ford motor company claims if no problems are current there is no problem. Oil contamination leads to problems. Ford motor comapny is selling defective equipment doomed to fail.
