1991 Ford Ranger body problems

Filed Mar 24, 2011 · Body · 100,000 miles · WV

The frame has horrible corrosion. All the spring hangers are were failing bad. I don't even think it can be welded because it is rusted from one end to another. Ford really messed this one up. And why do all the fuel gauges quit working?

Peeling factory paint primarily on top surfaces..I.e. Hood, cab roof, cowling. I have owned truck since 12/8/99 and has had problem since,it has lost nearly all paint on roof , hood has about 1/3 left. Primarily lifts/peels when washed or when left out in rain. Has had bits peel back at highway speeds. Mainly occurs though with washing. Have inquired with dealers to no avail. Was told by one that there was a recall but that the period for repair of condition had passed. I have not received nor heard anything from mfr regarding this issue whatsoever.

Consumer states that his motor mounts are rusting right out from the frame. He states he has never seen anything like it. He states he has not seen a recall for this problem, but he does not think this is normal.

Both of the pieces of the lower door hinges broke off as the door was opened. This results in an unsafe manner in which to exit and enter the vehicle as one must hold the door to prevent it from closing on body parts (legs especially) if the wind is blowing or the vehicle is parked on a hill.
