2019 Ford Ranger 3.2L Diesel · CP19 UGK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 104,284 miles passed, it followed a failure just two miles prior. That failure resulted from a fractured nearside front coil spring and an excessively worn ball joint, along with all four tyres reaching the legal wear limit. This pattern suggests the owner only addresses critical suspension components once they reach the point of mechanical failure during the annual inspection process. The Ranger has covered significant mileage for its seven-year age, averaging approximately 15,000 miles per year. There is a consistent level of usage between test intervals, with 19,611 miles clocked between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 17,443 miles recorded in the following year. This high-frequency use indicates the vehicle is likely used for long-distance commuting or commercial work, which puts accelerated stress on the drivetrain and suspension components as evidenced by the recurring faults in the front-end assembly. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension geometry. The record shows persistent issues with front ball joints and coil springs spanning from 2023 to 2025. You should check for signs of grease leakage from boots and any visible play in the control arms that might indicate further wear. The previous failure of all four tyres due to edge wear also points toward potential alignment issues or incorrect camber camber settings, which can rapidly degrade the vehicle's handling characteristics. Inspect the current tyre set for uneven wear to ensure the suspension repairs made in late 2025 were effective and not masked underlying mechanical misalignment.
