Straightforward Repair Services for Your 1986 Ford Ranger

If your Ford Ranger is in need of some TLC, we’re here to give you (and your car) the top-notch service experience you deserve. We know that high standards of quality and care can make the best auto repair shops stand out from the rest. Trust Firestone Complete Auto Care with bumper to bumper 1986 Ford Ranger repairs, like tire and alignment repairs, brake work, and even engine and drivetrain services. We'll share a little about each service below.

It’s no secret that properly functioning brakes are an integral part of staying safe in your vehicle. Ford Ranger brake problems could lead to unsafe driving conditions – or worse, an accident. If you notice shaking when you depress your brake pedal, noise from your brakes, increased stop distance, or a brake light that’s lit up on your dashboard, don’t wait to have your brakes inspected and repaired. No matter how reliable your Ford Ranger is, it'll need brake repair at one point or another. As your car ages, brake pads and other small parts will naturally wear out and need to be replaced. Driving habits and climate can also affect when you might need brake repair.

Tire problems are another one you don't want to let linger. Tire damage can inhibit your ability to maintain control of your vehicle and stay safe while driving. If you have a flat tire on your 1986 Ford Ranger, we can change it for you. In some cases, our technicians may be able to perform a simple patch and plug repair on your Ford Ranger tire. Many tread-area punctures can be repaired if they are less than ¼ of an inch in diameter. If a repair isn’t safe for your particular tire situation, a technician can answer any questions you have when choosing a tire replacement that suits your vehicle and your budget. To ensure that tire damage doesn’t take a toll on other components of your vehicle, we may recommend an alignment or tire balancing service at the time of your tire repair.

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care is a one-stop shop for 1986 Ford Ranger drivetrain, engine, and transmission repair services, too. All of these systems contain hundreds of parts that work together to generate heat and energy to propel your car to move. These parts are moving anytime your car is running, so over time, they can take on significant wear and tear. You might experience shifting delays, engine knocking, or a burnt smell coming from underneath the hood of your Ranger. Whatever the symptom, bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care. The repair might be a simple spark plug replacement, or a more involved fuel pump fix.

1986 Ford Ranger Auto Repair Q&A

You want to take care of your car, but Ford Ranger repair costs can add up if you’re not careful. Save yourself money, time, and headache by being proactive. Get answers to common auto repair questions and help prevent costly issues down the road.

  • Do I need to follow Ford's maintenance schedule? Don’t neglect scheduled maintenance. Sure, you could skip out on a few recommended maintenance services, but you may pay the price later. Bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care at recommended service intervals to address minor issues before they get out of hand and keep your car running newer, longer.
  • What does it mean to be 'in tune' with your car? No, we’re not talking about finding the best jams on the radio! You know your car best, and you’re the first person who will notice if something doesn’t feel right (like new smells, sights, or sounds coming from your car). If you sense that something is 'off,' stop in for a Courtesy Check to have these symptoms checked out ASAP. Early action could help you prevent Ford Ranger repairs.
  • Why do you recommend certain repairs for my Ford? Trust is more than just a saying on the wall. It’s a window underneath it. That’s why we won’t recommend services or repairs for your 1986 Ford Ranger unless we think they’re vital to your safety on the road.
