1 Rearview System Braking problem of the 2024 Ford Ranger

Failure Date: 08/01/2025

When truck was new at 400 miles abs traction controll rear collision and all braking erro codes were displayed on dash. Brought to dealer had a bad wheel speed sensor in rear. At that time I asked about large amount of rear brakes dust on vehicle like if the brakes were dragging. Technician said just poor oem pads. Now at 14k miles rear pads at 6mm thickness back wheels are always covered in brake dust. I was at dealer asked if there is anything they could do regarding initial build quality. Dealer said no there is no fault just poorly made pads. As a consumer ths is less then except able of a vehicle to almost need new rear brakes at 14k miles. Delaer should be replacing these pads on there behalf not the customer.

2 Rearview System Braking problem of the 2019 Ford Ranger

Failure Date: 06/14/2025

My tail lights just stopped working. I didn't know that they were out until someone behind me told me that they were out. I didn't have any collision, nothing like that. I called the Ford dealership and they told me to bring it in so that they can see what the problem is. They have been having issues with tail lights just going out.

4 Rearview System Braking problem of the 2019 Ford Ranger

Failure Date: 03/29/2025

This is in relation to an existing recall on the 2019 Ford Ranger, NHTSA recall no. 19v-839 this recall was for improperly connected inline electrical connectors from the Ford factory causing issues with rear brake lamps. I have recently had a fault with the same connector, which Ford technicians discovered was not properly connected. This connector failed due to the loose connection, causing all electrical connections in the rear frame (fuel pump, rear view camera, cross traffic warning, parking sensors) to fail. Upon discovering recall 19v-839, I contacted Ford support. I was informed that my truck was built in the same factory as the recalled vehicles, but was completed three days after the impacted period ( Jun 04, 2018 - Aug 16, 2019). Therefor Ford will not consider my issue part of the recall. Ford has advised me to bring this up to the NHTSA to broaden the scope of the recall. I it seems clear to me that this issue was the same as the recall, and likely the original dates were too narrow. I hope you will investigate this issue.
