Consumer Description

STARTING IN 2007 MY 1999 FORD RANGER WOULD NOT GO INTO 4 WHEEL DR.. I WAS ALERTED BECAUSE THE 4-HIGH LIGHT STARTED BLINKING TO WARN OF A PROBLEM. AFTER 8 TRIPS TO3 DIFFERENT REPAIR SHOPS, IT WILL GO INTO 4-HIGH BUT IT ALWAYS SLIPS OUT. IT APPEARS TO BE IRREPAIRABLE. ALSO THE 4-HIGH LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN THOUGH IT HAS DROPPED BACK INTO 2 WHEEL DR.. AT 70 M.P.H., ON ICE AND SNOW THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! *TR
