2018 Ford Ranger 2.2L Diesel · L11 SAS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in October 2025 at 92,135 miles identified thinning front inner brake pads, suggesting that braking components are reaching their service limit. Following a clean record in 2021 and 2022, the vehicle has begun showing wear-related issues that require attention to prevent future failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use vehicle, averaging approximately 11,500 miles per year over its eight-year life. The data shows steady accumulation, moving from 48,988 miles in September 2021 to 92,135 miles by late 2025. A notable gap of 12,612 miles occurred between the September 2023 and 2024 tests, which aligns with the annual average, but highlights the increasing load on the heavy-duty suspension and drivetrain components. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front suspension and geometry. The failure in September 2022 for a fractured offside front coil spring and inner-edge wear on both front tyres suggests a potential alignment issue or overloading of the vehicle. You should check for uneven tyre wear and inspect the ball joints and bushes to ensure the structural integrity of the suspension remains sound. Additionally, the inability to inspect rear adult seat belts in 2023 and 2024 due to child seats means these must be manually verified to ensure they are functioning correctly and free of fraying.
