May 13th, 2012 06:06 PM #6Ford Ranger is Amazing! but I also found something not good, well its about a few fine details. Minor problems with build quality.
First: the welds. Dad said some welds were shoddy and poorly done because of visible spotting! And yeah I Saw the ranger construction Videos its welded by "[ROBOTS!]". so how the hell did this happen.

Second: Some of the Pics from above show Rust. Its brand new? how come there's rust? what no rust proofing?
Third:The Window Visor - looks like its glued/taped on with the excess glue/tape STICKING OUT?

Fourth: the Bed Liner, Yes the problem is that it does not cover the TOPS of the BED WALL. people and cargo tend scratch that area most.

Fifth: The steering wheel. For such a BIG car it has such a TINY steering wheel like the size of Honda City. But I can Live with that.
BUT MY MAIN CONCERN is the WELDS and the RUST

May 14th, 2012 12:38 AM #7Like any modern pickup, this has power steering and has less turns lock to lock, no need for the extra leverage of a large diameter steering wheel.
PS: This is not the first time i've seen surface rust on chassis welds or bolts and exhaust pipes etc on a new vehicle.
The rain deflector/ visor is a dealer installed accessory, never been fan of these.

May 15th, 2012 12:13 PM #8informative post, thanks, what the hell are these welds FORD? Visually rejected, how much more if we'll conduct NDE?
Hire an AWS CWI to get your welds inspected, huwag magtipid FORD.
I remember 2009, Nissan has recalled it's Frontier in the US due to poor quality welds.
I checked my Japs ,made truck & thus far good compared to these photos.
I challenge FORD if you understand welding, Fiks it Or Repair Daily.

October 20th, 2012 12:31 AM #11The model is 2012 All New Ranger XLT MT. Why po? Yes I brought it to the dealer. They said it is not covered by warranty. ouch... They recommend having it undercoat at my expense. ouch...
How did people in Thailand Ranger forum address the problem? Did the dealer fix it for them?
For those getting their new unit, take a quick look of your under chassis for rust if you don't want these kind of problem.

October 21st, 2012 01:00 AM #14Yes napansin ko rin yan sa ranger ko. Sa may chasis sa likod at breakdrum may kalawang na agad. Isa pa sa napansin ko parang madali magasgas yong paint kunti sagi lang gasgas agad hindi pa naman makuha sa rubbing at medyo mabal pumasok ang 5th at 6th gear. Kaylangan ko pang lagay sa manual mode tapos balik ko rin sa auto pag nakapasok na. Originally Posted by kaefer_zwei

May 15th, 2012 02:31 PM #15My Bro said there is a reason why the welds are bad on the DISPLAY model. The Display Ranger was most likely built by hand. I think I remember reading an article that they built display models in advance and built them by hand and not in ASSEMBLY LINES with ROBOT's. SO technically speaking the display model is NOT really the MASS PRODUCTION MODEL.

May 15th, 2012 06:51 PM #16They say, first impressions do last. Originally Posted by kaefer_zwei

Second, some dealers do sell their showroom units. Kawawa naman yung buyer niyang showroom unit na yan kung ganyan ang condition.

May 27th, 2012 05:17 AM #20They are refering to the vehicle and not the specific trim or engine option, same case with models from other brands. Originally Posted by duramax_994

PS: The 3.2 liter Duratorq TDCi engine is offered in Thailand.
Its available in the top of the line Double Cab 3.2L 4x4 Wildtrak.
