The freeze plug on a Ford Ranger 3.0 is located on the side, back, or underneath the engine block. These plugs are essential for containing coolant within the engine and preventing it from leaking out when the coolant freezes. If the freeze plugs fail, they can dislodge from the engine due to being the weakest point. This can result in frozen coolant leaking into areas where it shouldn't be, causing damage to the vehicle and potential engine issues. If you receive a trouble code indicating damaged freeze plugs, it is important to promptly bring your car in for repairs to avoid further complications.
