I have a 2000 Ranger XLT. I need the tranny looked at for the 3rd time in 3 years. I've noticed that there are 18 recalls involving the powertrain & 10 more specifying the AT I have...
How do I check if my used truck is current with ALL its recalls? I just want to make sure the dealer didn't pass problems on to me three years ago when I bought it. Plus, if Ford will fix any lagging problems. 1) Had the gasket/seals replaced under extended warranty when I got it. 2) Needed a new tranny year & 1/2 ago. 3) Now, tranny missing bolt & leaking once up to operating heat. Any suggestions because I am not replacing another tranny ARG!!!!

A Ford dealership should be able to check the VIN and determine what recall services were done on your truck, if any.

Well I'm back... I'm the same guy as the comment above, that "great" truck I had is not so much anymore. Transmission even with the constant flushings and good maintenance took a full dive at 85,000 miles. I've had it back to ford 3 different times since to repair a $2,500 transmission replacement. Clunking in rear end is still there, I am seeing new electrical problems, and loss of compression (power). I am very un-happy with my truck right now. FORD!!! needs to own up to this power-train that they've put into their trucks and take care of their customers. They've already lost me. I'll sell this truck as soon as possible.

Ford Recalls are listed on line. And the 2000 Ranger has a dozen or more.

Therangerstation.com has lots of info and forums for Ranger/Explorer/Bronco problems.

Dealer service dept. will be able to look up any recalls due and performed with the VIN number.

You can check on all applicable recalls from here http://recalls.dynawebdesigns.com/index.php?make=ford&year=2000&model=ranger and call your dealer or ford directly at 1-800-392-3673 and they should have record of all the work done on your vehicle.
