Is it OK to drive a Ford Ranger at home?
The delivery guy is unlikely to be someone who was qualified to tell you that the car was ok, and accepting the car at home without driving it first is not a wise thing to do. But Ford is saying they will fix the problem, once they establish what is causing it, and I don’t you have anything to complain about with that.
Why does my Ford Ranger have so much vibration?
The principle is resonance. While the vibration is always there, the chassis reacts differently to the frequency (speed) of the vibration – and it appears to be worse in certain speed ranges. Google “Wheel Hop Frequency” and see if that doesn’t explain things.

When does the vibration in a Ford truck go away?
I have a 2018 F-150 3.5 with a 10 speed Trans, the truck has less then 2000 miles on it and whey the trucks hits 50-60 mph it develops a harmonic/vibration that goes away when you let off of the gas pedal. When towing a 1000 lbs trailer the harmonic/vibration is magnified.
Is there a problem with my Ford Ranger?
Ford has admitted there is a vibration but they all say there is no solution. I say if you have this problem, file for the lemon law, it is time consuming and repetitive, but Ford needs to know it’s loyal customers will not put up with this. This is the 3rd Ford Ranger my father has owned. Too bad they don’t care about their customers.
