19k miles and issues are starting to pop up

[Tomm8tx]

I have
1. The shake under acceleration (CV axels on order).
2. The black part of the dash (above the instrument cluster) is getting sticky (no, I do not use any cleaners on my dash) .
3. The infotainment system sometimes looses it's crap for 5 minutes (not cable or phone).
4. The adaptive cruise control doesn't always pick up cars on the right side of the truck, allowing it to accelerate when it shouldn't.
5. Wind noises have started to creep in, that were not there 2 months ago.

The other things are grips, I wish the adjustability of the drivers seat was more then the very basics of a 1970's Ford (and it had memory), the infotainment had a bigger display (especially for maps), the OTA updates could fix drivetrain and other updates w/out a visit to the dealer, you could use the back up camera while in forward motion for viewing, the wireless charger actually charged a modern phone, it had wireless android auto/apple car play so you could wirelessly charge your phone and not need a cable for data (that also charges your phone), and if you could pull the whipper blades out and they would stay in place for cleaning your windshield without scratching your hood every time.
In summary, this is a pretty nice little truck with lots of usefulness and comfort. I would recommend it to someone needing a small truck for daily driving and basic homeowner stuff. I have driven mine from Tennessee to Vermont and back and it was great, now that the newness has worn off, I'm still overly good with it, but some of the shortfalls are starting to show through. All in all, it has been a good vehicle and I would do it all over again.

19k seems to be the magic number this week

Mine is currently at the dealership awaiting new CV axles. Hopefully they will solve most if not all of my gripes.

#3. My infotainment system didn't come with the crap option.
#4. The ACC has detailed limitations on vehicle detection shown in the Owner's Manual. You might want to read that book.

The 'grips' you mention seems to indicate you wanted a more expensive vehicle and not a Maverick.

So do you want a bigger screen all together or are you running the maps in split screen?

I say this because my map fills.my screen completely

Sans the CV axles which seems to be an overwhelmingly Hybrid issue - these all seem like nitpicks and if that is all you're seeing at 20k miles it is holding up pretty damn well. Makes me happy.

Yes, memory seat should be standard on at least the lariat trim.

I would like a bigger screen all together, to be honest the screen and it's real-estate could easily be bigger if it would occupy the space for the useless pocket to the right. Then I could use the split screen a lot easier. The cost for OEM (Ford or any other manufacturer is not that much per screen for 2 - 3 inches bigger).

I did read the manual, and I do watch what it does while in ACC, I'm just surprised at its behavior compared to my 2017 Mazda CX-5 that it replaced. My gripes are in line with a comparable priced vehicle (the Lariat Lux was not an inexpensive vehicle 33k+ttl, at least to me not inexpensive) memory seat was deleted because of chip shortage according to Ford.
By losing it's crap, I mean the infotainment looses connection with the phone and goes into a default mode where it looks for the phone and will not do anything else, then when it does find the phone, plays everything from the center channel speaker in the dash before fixing itself and going back to normal, not a big deal as it only happens once or twice every 3 or so months. The OTA software updates have been available on less expensive cars for years (think Nissan Leaf). The grips are just that, things I wish it had, no means deal breakers for me to keep it for another 100k miles.

Ya they could quite easily have made it a bigger screen not many people use that pocket unless it is modified (a phone holder mounted inside, a Fits Bracket, etc) I'm sure there are some people that like it but I forget it's even there most of time I use the pocket behind the screen to hold things but not sure that k have ever used the side pocket.

Sounds like it's falling apart. Good luck and I hope you get solutions to these problems.

you got rid of your Maverick and bought a Honda Ridgeline some months ago, but you can't help yourself and show up regularly to throw shade on the Maverick... that is odd.....

 

[fozcycle]

You should have bough5 an Ecoboost…..I have 19k on my ‘22 Lariat and no issues whatsoever.

Comment Number 4, ACC. Sounds to me like it is working as it should be. If I am on the interstate and ACC is maintaining a safe following distance on a car below my set speed, then I expect the Mav to accelerate when I move into the left lane.
