[QUOTE="Robert Caffyn, post: 981638, member: 66648"] Hey Matt, There isn't too much with the GenII Sport Trac to write home about. In my case a few things were an annoyance more than a problem. Example: 1) rear brake calipers sometimes "rattle", a TSB was issued on how to fix it, no charge under warranty. 2) I've had problems with the illumination of the icons on the headlight switch. Currently on my 3rd switch. It doesn't affect the operation of the switch, but I'm one of those "car nut" kind of guys. So I want everything to work the way its supposed to. 3) You will hear about a "trannie bump" from members on here. Its like a surge from the downshift into first gear, just as you come to a stop. Some have it and live with it, others have had the dealer reprogram the trans module(update program) and it works the way it should. 4) I've had some problems with the brake calipers seizing up on the slide pins. Causes uneven wear of the pads and less efficient operation of the brakes. A few other things were cosmetic and no real need to go into them(just take real good care of the leather interior!) Thats all I've had any issues with, just be really up on the monthly maintainence and you'll be fine. Bob [/QUOTE]
