RANGER 1985 Systems


Recall usually evolves out of safety issues and the ensuing recall maintenance/repair work is usually done at no charge to the RANGER owner. Dealers are usually under no mandate to call in cars for which there are TSBs to do the related repairs. Nor is there an obligation to do the RANGER TSB repairs for free or at reduced charges to the owner. TSB are beneficial because they are widely circulating among dealership service departments and mechanics an engineering-level description and solution for a problem common to type, year, make or model of car. TSB process provides organized, itemized RANGER repair procedures, and standardize the repair process.
