My battery safety keep common and I can’t start my Maverick with the phone, darn truck if only 5 months old, also the radio keeps turning itself off and back on, anyone else experiencing this type of problems?

The App will tell you to drive the car and if you do take it on a nice long drive, you won’t see that problem for a while but eventually it’ll pop up again because the 12 V batteries they use is a piece of crap. We need to get an AGM battery either from your dealer if he’ll do it or buy one on your own for like $150. Tons of threads on this with battery options and different solutions people have found but none seem to work other than eventually getting a new battery.

And a weekly charge.

Buy a NOCO Battery tender from amazon or walmart. Use it periodically, until the battery/charging issue is resolved by Ford. If your battery is not being fully charged by the truck, you are shortening the battery's lifetime.
