FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on Oct 01, 1999.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . during driving, when i shift from 2nd to 3rd (most of the time), the throttle sticks at around 2500-3000 rpm's. it does release itself but after i engage the clutch to the next gear, i can take it out of gear and leave in neutral and it will still be around 2500 rpm for about 3-8 seconds. i took the car in to the original dealer and they thought i was nuts. i took it to burts ford in colorado and they first replace a fuel assembly part, the 2nd time they could not find the problem. they 3rd with burts, i took a mechanic out for a drive and shoed him the problem. they looked the car over while it was in shop for a week and said that they can willingly reproduce the problem but said it was the way the car was being shifted. no fix. i have been driving stick cars for over 26 years and have never had this problem. at one point, when shifting, the rpm's would accerlate. this is a problem, if i get to a stop light or sign and the car will not release the rpm's, then engine could continue to race and potentially blow up or even ruin the engine. this is obviously a safety issue but nobody seems to know how to fix it..Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FTCR10A7VT.

FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on Oct 10, 1999.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with INTERIOR LIGHTING . i have a 1997 ford ranger xlt supercab. i purchased the car brand new in 1997. that year i noticed that the dome light in the car began to stay on. i would be driving at night and the light would stay on. sometimes the only way to turn the light out is to pull the fuse out. i think this is very hazardous to myself and others driving. i have tried to fix the problem but nothing seems to fix this. this has happened the last two years around the colder months, but not in the warmer months. i think this is a defective part from ford. the reason why is that i have two friends of mine who have 1997 ford ranger, they have and are experiencing the same problem. i have contacted ford customer assistance on the internet and they have no idea what the problem is. i also called my dealership and they were no help. i am very frustrated about this. this should really be considered a safty recall. the fact that driving at night with your dome light on is illegal, and this can cause a serious hazzard to drivers at night. *ak( dot number: ? ).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FTCR14U3VT.

FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on May 15, 2004.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:FILLING/CHARGING . 1) the vehicle is a 1997 ford ranger xlt extended cab pickup. a couple of years ago my wife complained about smelling gasoline when she filled the vehicle with gasoline. on more than one occasion gasoline was observed dripping from the area under the fuel tank after the vehicle was filled with gasoline. this would have been in the 2001-2002 time frame. *ak 2) in late april of this year 2004, the check engine warning dashboard warning light came on, and i had the computer code checked to determine if i could make the repairs myself. the problem was the fuel filter, and when i replaced it i noticed a great deal of dirt and debris coming from the inlet side of the filter. this indicated to me that the fuel tank was probably contaminated, and i removed the tank saturday, may 15, to clean the tank. prior to reinstalling the tank, i examined the gasoline filler tube, and found three cracks in the vapor recovery tube that vents gasoline vapors to the filling station vapor recovery system. one of these cracks was quite large, and showed indications of gasoline leaking from this crack. not only was the crack the source of the gasoline that leaked from the system, it was also the entry point for the debris and moisture i found in the tank. in addition, the gasoline that ran from the crack in the recovery tube accumulated in a plastic skid plate that is located under the tank. 3) i of course replace the tube assembly, at a cost of $262.29. i contacted ford motor company about the problem and for reimbursement for the replacement parts. they didn't seem to be the least bit interest in the problem and refused to compensate the expenses. i have retained the old part, and have several photos of the defect..Mileage was 70000 miles.

FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on Sept 01, 2007.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN . the engine occasionally races (runaway acceleration) on my 1997 ford ranger 4x4 with standard transmission and overdrive and 3.0l engine. the acceleration tends to occur after i have driven the vehicle at highway speeds (70 mph) and then drive at slower speeds such as in an urban setting. at such times, the idle remains rather high and engine racing occurs when i engage the clutch to shift into second or third gear. the engine racing causes the gears to clash (grind) and resist shifting; i have almost been rear ended several times due to this slowing of forward motion since the brake lights do not come on to indicate it. sometimes the acceleration runs away, and i have had to quickly pull over and turn off the ignition to prevent blowing the engine. i have taken the problem to several mechanics including ford, but none have been able to identify the cause. there evidently was a recall for automatic transmissions with a similar problem but not for standard transmissions. *tr.Mileage was 135000 miles.

FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on Dec 30, 2010.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SEATS . i was leaving the parking lot of the grocery store i had been shopping at, and the drivers side reclining seat latch assembly that controls the angle of, and locks the back of the seat into position, gave way and the back of the seat collapsed backwards causing me to go backwards as well. fortunately i was able to stop my vehicle without causing a collision or injury. the vehicle is now at home, and with internet research it seems that the reclining seat latch assembly has been a weak point with ford ranger trucks and ford explorer suv vehicles for years. the ford dealer/service center that i do business with, now tells me that the replacement part is obsolete and they will have to contact various dealers still listing it in their inventory to see if they can get the part, as the parts supplier for ford that made the replacement latches went out of business during the bad economy. i'm amazed that a recall has not been issued, given the potential for great harm and possible injury or death from the failure of this component..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 80697 miles.

FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on Dec 27, 2012.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . plastic fuel line split at the input of the fuel filter that is located behind the engine attached to the vehicle frame. when the ignition is turned on gasoline sprays from this crack piece of plastic line. this is due to the fact that the fuel pump is electric and energizes anytime the ignition is on the pump is located in the gas tank at the rear of the truck . this is potentially very dangerous as the spraying gasoline could easily hit the catalytic converter or exhaust system when the vehicle is in motion. fortunately i noticed the leak under the vehicle when i was warming up the car on as cool morning. as a result no real damage was done. will cost about $350 to repair. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 150000 miles.

FORD RANGER 1997 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2007.FORD RANGER 1997, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with STRUCTURE: FRAME AND MEMBERS:UNDERBODY SHIELDS . i have severe rusting of the frame and parts connected to frame of my 1997 ford ranger, and i am worried about its safety on the road/highway. and i only have 64,000 miles on it! i have heard of spare tires coming loose and falling off, rear bumpers falling off, gas tanks falling off, rear shackles coming loose etc...on the ford ranger because of the severe rust. if i was towing a trailer and the rear bumper fell off there goes the trailer too, a trailer and/or bumper that could cause an accident and kill somebody! same with the other parts coming loose. and if the rear axle broke loose from the frame it would cause a loss of control and an accident and fatality. and if i was carrying a heavy load the frame could buckle or break in half and cause an accident and fatality, because the frame is half gone because of the rust. its just like the frame rust problems on the toyota tacoma and tundra trucks. i also heard that the supplier of the frames for the toyota tacoma and tundra, was also the supplier for the ford ranger frames. i think this is a manufacturing defect by ford, and that the government should force ford to recall my 97 ford ranger, and all other ford rangers affected by the rusty frames asap. force ford to buyback the trucks at kbb value, or replace the rusty frames with new ones free of charge. the frame is the backbone of a truck, its a critical part and if it fails because of severe rusting, you have a serious safety problem here. its a disaster just waiting to happen, and i hope the government will take action and be proactive, and not wait for people to be killed on the nations highways. only 64,000 miles on my 97 ranger and big chunks of steel are flaking off the frame and have for years! half the frame is gone already! the frame should far outlast the body of the truck, and its just the opposite! a disaster waiting to happen. action is needed now. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FTCR10U3VU.
