Problems with Ford Ranger
I have brought a 2013 Ford Ranger pick up and had a lot of problems. I have had a bonnet respray, a broken panel behind the bumper, water in the mirror indicator and a faulty tyre, which I had to replace myself then receive credit!
The vehicle also has a shudder when driving at 30-40mph. It is going back for about the sixth time to be geometrically checked, as I'm not happy that after 2000 miles my tyres are scrubbing on the outside edges. Have you received or heard of any other complaints.

Yes. I'll add yours right now. Presumably the 2.2 diesel? But if it's the 3.2 the reason for the shudder at 30-40mph will be the very high gearing that gives 40mph per 1000rpm in sixth gear. Sixth will not be usable at 30-40mph.
