Calling all that are happy with little to no issues!

Wet/slippery was somewhat similar to eco mode...

Slippery mode gives the best mileage - even better than eco mode.

Had my '23 Hybrid Lariat since Jan 2023. Just over 6000 miles for me. 3 recalls but no issues have popped up yet.

I have seen some people on here say that before. Have you used Slippery mode for a whole tank of fuel? What was your mileage?

Hello,
Been lurking this forum since finding out and ordering a Maverick hybrid.
Would like to ease nerves and see who has a hybrid that has little to no problems. I placed an order recently and hesitant on hybrid.
But at the same time it fits all the marks in what I need in a vehicle
-gas efficient( I drive over 40miles a day)
-cargo space(bed to hold oversized items)
-passenger seats(family)
-durable?(cv axles big issue?)
Primarily used as a work vehicle, carrying tools as well, current vehicle gets crammed very fast. Anyways Thanks. And hope to join the club soon.

I have a 2023 eco 2.0 lariat had it 6mo great veh !!! No issues

I use it whenever I remember to enable it, which is most of the time for local driving. Exception is when it's really cold, the truck is cold and I need heat. Then, I use Sport mode for the first mile or so, to run the ICE more. Then I turn on the heater once the temp gauge moves a bit.
None of my Hybrid's tanks of gas have gotten less than 40mpg, calculated. Slippery helps my MPG mostly in city driving and hilly terrain.
The heater seems to be the worst enemy to my MPG - much more so than running the a/c. Using the heat definitely makes the ICE run a lot more than not using it.
YMMV

Had mine since early September '23. No issues at all, 1 turn signal recall. Two teenagers in the back with only minor complaints. But let's be honest, they're gonna complain no matter what.

Welcome!! I think you'll love your truck. I ordered a 2023 Lariat Lux Hybrid back in Sept 2022 and finally got it in June 2023. Since then, I've put on a little over 7,000 miles and still love the truck. The only issue I've experienced so far is the newest recall for turn signals. I've had no deep sleep issues, no major electric issues or anything else for that matter.

We've (family of 3) taken it on 2 big road trips (one to Ohio and one to Cape Cod - we live in Vermont) and there was plenty of room for 2 adults a child and all the luggage needed.

Taking it to the dealer this week to get the turn signal recall completed and will also do my first oil change.

Hi I love my 2023 Maverick XLT. I have had it about a year and just have over 11,000 miles. I had a Rhino Liner sprayed in the bed and a Tonneau cover put on.
There have been 2 Recalls, one for the turn signal and the other was a software update. My dealership has a Mobile unit and they come right to your house and take care of the recalls. Love that service. Getting ready for my second Oil change at the dealership in a couple days with my Ford Reward Points.
Love my Maverick and would buy another one! Great little truck. My license plate is "LilMav"!

Bought a 2022 maverick lariat hybrid. Have 63000 miles on it. Just finished a trip from west Virginia to Las Vegas to San diego back to Vegas then back to west Virginia. About 5800 miles round trip.
Have only had 1 issue. Was going up hill in the snow and lost traction and had to back down the hill. Other than that it's been a pretty good truck.

Luv the way my 2023 hybrid XLT drives. Bought one without test drive. Picked up in Nov. 23 after long wait. Great mpg around town. Fits my needs. Got a lot of ideas for aftermarket accessories from this forum- happy with them too.

Um, you do know that Ford's hybrid system is nearly identical to Toyota's, to the point that Ford pays them license fees? Ford has been making hybrid Escapes since 2004 IIRC, and those have good reputations for longevity. The transmission is ludicrously simple, with very few moving parts (like, under 20 depending on how you count things like bearings.) The transmission will not fall apart like Honda or Chrysler minivans.

Lots of people don't know what they're talking about. The 2.5 hybrid system is even more reliable than the motor used in those old crown vics according to taxi companies that had escape hybrids and crown vics alike. People are just afraid of change.

I've got a MY22 AWD 4K tow Lariat thats been solid as a rock. Its handled everything ive thrown at it which is quite a bit with zero issues. Not even a squeak or rattle. Couldn't be any happier
