Used 2019 Ford Ranger SuperCab Consumer Reviews
transmission failed at 600 miles
Bought a new 2019 Ford Ranger. Drove it lightly for 2 months. I got it from the dealer with about 250 miles on it, drove it to about 600 miles, and the transmission completely gave out, leaving me stranded on the road, needing a tow. Putting it in reverse would result in slowly going forwards, and could not get into any other gear. It's been with the dealer for more than a week, a new valve is on backorder from Ford with no ETA. Service and dealership have been great to me since, so not angry, but I would avoid buying a Ford again for a long, long time. It's a shame, since I really liked the truck and spent a lot of time researching against other models.

Nightmare
I bought the 2019 ranger xlt with some extras in it and I have had nothing but issues out of it. It has been to the dealership probably 8 times and doesn't even have 15k miles on it. It is currently in the shop bc the rear end blew up. The dash went out before 5k. The radio also went out before 5k the alternator went out right before I hit 5k. All the speakers on the passenger side blew before 2k. It has been for multiple check engine lights and other modules saying they are inop. Truck left me on the side of the road before 5k

Great truck
All the bells and whistles are worth the extra expense. Solid power, quite, handles well once you get use to suspension. Did have issue with back seat locking in once dropped for cargo(don’t bother with that not benefit).
Good Truck Cheap Poor Accessories
I have owned this truck for 11months now. Feel I can give it a proper review. Power train I give it a 5/5. The 4 cylinder eco boost mated to the 10 speed transmission is wounderful. Plenty of power, speed, and towing in a small package. It as well has plenty of get up and go when merging on to the interstate. It also does real good on rural dirt and gravel roads. Where mine spends most of it's time. Now for the negatives accessories and features 1/5. In the time I have had this truck. I had have issues with the safety features that set my truck into limp mode. Took two trips to the dealership to fix it. Had issues with front radar picking up ghost and truck goes nuts and beeps out of no where. The radios volume knob broke and will not work after 6 months very cheap. After 11 months the vent actuator broke so my AC and heat will run at same time. There are some other minor issues I have had but not worth listing. So from what I experienced all time and money was spent on the power train and the mechanics of the truck. They made the interior and accessories as cheap as possible. Would expect more from a $30,000 truck.

jerky shifting
Ive got 15,000 miles on my Ranger, Fit and finish is great, nice safety features great styling and layout. Gas mileage has rarely been more then 25 mpg, all the power you could ask for but the transmission is very jerky and the ride leaves a bit to be desired. Had I spent more time test driving it I probably would not have bought it. The transmission shifting is VERY annoying!!!
