Common Problem

TL;DR
The 2018 Ford Ranger is known for issues with the Ecoboost engine, transmission concerns, and rusted spark plugs due to water pooling.
Engine Issues
One of the most significant concerns with the Ford Ranger involves the Ecoboost engine. There have been reports of oil leaking into the fuel system, which has led to a class action lawsuit. This issue seems to be related to the GDI (Gasoline Direct Injection) system, and some owners have installed catch cans as a workaround. Additionally, rusted spark plugs are a problem due to the lack of an engine cover, allowing water to pool in the spark plug holes.
Transmission Concerns
While many users report no issues with their transmission, there is curiosity about how the transmission will perform over time. Some owners have had their transmissions replaced under warranty due to problems. It's worth noting that the transmission used in the Ranger was not new to the market, as it had been used in other models before its introduction in the US.
Other Common Issues
Several users have reported issues with the tail light connector, which sometimes requires replacement. The rear axle seal is another problem that has been mentioned across forums, with some owners needing replacements. Additionally, some have experienced failures with the infotainment screen , and others have noted that the parking brake boot can crack in cold weather.
Considerations Beyond the Discussions
It's important to consider that while these issues are noted by some owners, many others report having no significant problems with their Rangers. When purchasing a used Ranger, it's advisable to check for any recalls or service bulletins related to these common issues and ensure regular maintenance has been performed.
