Suprise review! How the Maverick holds up to a T-Bone accident! Edited with phitos of other car

[RebellaE]

You know everyone has told me at least the truck can be replaced. This is a 2022 Maverick Hybrid!!! IT CANNOT BE REPLACED! You know how hard it was to get one in the first place? Or at least that is my adamant argument to the insurance company!

Agreed. You will likely have to find a Hybrid in the wild and send the dealer price to the insurance company. Then add temporary car accommodations to that number. Maybe contact Tim and see if he would put you on their cancellation list? With so many Hybrids ordered at his dealership, he might be able to get you into a refused customer order if your insurance plays ball with the dealer mark-up. He's been so helpful, I wouldn't mind paying the mark-up to them in this situation (but others might still disagree).

PTL you and your child are ok.

A couple things. One, booster seats are used by weight not age. She was not in one. Also she was in the front seat. She was actually in the best spot other than the driver's seat. The rear seat was whipped around and hit his car. That would have been an even harder hit on her. I don't subscribe to the ever changing safety rules. Don't make her wear helmet and knee pads when she rides a bike either. I do make them wear seat belts but realize that could kill them too. In this instance the seat belt held her in her seat and mine was useless. It's the side curtain airbags that did their job. But hey I grew up riding in the truck bed...

I'm glad you all are okay. And I'm curious as to how your seat belt was "useless". Did it fail in some manner? Thanks...

So, you were the T-BONER and not the T-Bonee?

The most important thing is no one was seriously hurt. I've read about the 911 feature, but I was not aware that the Maverick would call emergency contacts too. What does it do send them an email?

i think emergency contacts are given to the 911 operator, and phone(s) must be paired w/ bluetooth and connected/wire to screen for 911 assist to work.

Side to side action.

No. I was hit. He squared my front corner panel

My worst fear (non-safety related) with a build and order is getting my hybrid after such a long torturous wait and then something/someone ruining it in an accident. Almost makes me want to place an order for the 2023 model when the banks open up! Wonder if deposits will be non-refundable by then...lol

Airbags deployed immediately. My 6 year old was slammed into hers. Trucks 911 assist called 911 like it was supposed to. We walked away a little battered but OK. Truck also called the emergency contacts I put in it.

Guy ran the light and slammed us at high speed.


Also, addiction is posting a Tbone review while IN THE ER.......which I did.

But this truck did impress. He hit me so hard he nearly knocked me out of the intersection. I was coming from that road closed sign. The hit swung me 90 degrees and damn near off the road. I was rolling in electric mode maybe 20 mph so I would hit the next light perfectly. He ended up past my truck. It hit so hard the rear door clipped his car as he was passing. And this is a shitbox 90s escort station wagon. Crushed the front end of his car. Radiator fluid and it looked like oil everywhere. I will definitely get another Maverick.

Wow!! So glad that everyone made it out ok! Now I almost feel bad about giving you about having 2 Mavericks, while I'm STILL waiting to get a build date!! Almost, I said!
Still all in all, I'm really glad that Maverick has once again proven to take a serious beating and protect the occupants!

Glad to hear You all survived. You’re getting another. Maverick Rather than fixing the one you have?

The big take away was my daughter left only with seatbelt marks and a nasty spot on her head from the side airbags. Thank you Ford.

Thanks! I was scrolling hard to see how your daughter was doing.

where I grew up a T-Bone accident is when 1 person hits the other dead on in the middle of their vehicle (like a letter T viewed from above). In this case, he would have needed to hit straight into the middle of your cab from the side. I think the term for your hit is "clipped", because he clipped your front corner?

Yeah. I've sat through a decent number of motor vehicle negligence/personal injury trials, and we all should stop talking on here about everybody being 'fine.' You're probably NOT fine. You're banged up and traumatized. Your daughter is banged up and traumatized. Your brand new, custom ordered, impossible to replace, truck is ruined.

You know??

Well crap so sorry that happened to you.
