| I own a 2003 ford ranger i bought new.on november 26 2010 i pulled into the parking lot @ work and my clutch and brake pedals fell to the floor causing a minor crash.the pivot bracket that holds the steel pedals is made from cast aluminum.i have been a aluminum welder for over 10 years and in my opinion this bracket is very substandard.i searched the web and found that other people had the same thing happen on rangers and other trucks and ford cars.if i was on the road this could have been much worse.i sent pictures and a piece of the bracket to a recall investigator.he said its not a common failure since he cant find any complaints. | |||

| As i slowly pulled my 2003 ford ranger into a parking space at work this morning with my foot on the brake the truck suddenly accelerated. i applied the brake harder and the truck stopped. i verified that i did not have my foot on both the brake and accelerator, only on the brake. | |||
