Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My ford ranger is a very dangerous vehicle. it is built unstable/balanced, it vibrates and also shakes uncontrollably. it has almost taken my life twice! yes i drive at the speed limit, and tune my car up on a regular bases. the 2003-4 model have the same problems, but ironically the toyota tacoma has no problems at all that are related to these of the ford ranger. i have already contacted ford but no reply, i am also going to contact my congress person to present these issues and more with governed bodies to see if the federal transportation commission can be improved, another aspect to this hazardous cause of the ford might be that the u.s doesn't use european standards in automotive. you don't really see bmw, or other cars of a european decent with those problems. *jb
