@fordvideoguy
This video reaffirms information and answers questions many folks had that have been circulating regularly here for several weeks. Thanks for reiterating the hold info again and also confirming any info you had on the camera recall.

Ouch!

As I have been doing, I will rely on my Analog cameras...

Why didn't Ford take some time between the model years and work on improving quality instead of trying to fix them after there already assembled? According to the video 2024 Maverick production ended on Friday November 8th and 2025 production began on November 11th. I'm having second doubts about taking delivery of a vehicle that was built the first week of production.

You didn’t watch the whole video. I can assist.
The infotainment system in the 25 is not the same as previous years.

A 6 week hold for "quality checks" wouldn't have made any difference for the backup camera recall since its a way past 6 weeks since all of the '22s, '23s and most of the '24s were sold.

I watched the entire video. Ford got the recall notice in September. They continued to build defective vehicles for almost 2 months. Why build almost 30k vehicles that you already know need repairs? They took TWO whole days between model years. Disappointing.

They ain't shutting down the assembly line. Keep building, fix later.

I watched this and it was helpful, and probably if I can rewatch I'd find my answer, is the six week hold applied to each build or is it overall? So the trucks built 11/11 are held for 6 weeks, right. But my truck is scheduled for next week is it held for six weeks from it's build date, or only an additional 2 as the first trucks were held for 4 already?

I still don't get what a 6 week quality hold will accomplish on the 25s. For 22-24 things have been found over the years (deep sleep, CV issues, back up camera) not over a few weeks.

Lol. Seems to be working well for them. Can't sell 2024's and the 2025's are on a six week quality hold. I thought "At Ford, Quality is Job 1"?

It isn't necessarily about catching all the issues, but any initial quality issues that might trigger a recall in the first year or so. Think back to the first model year and things like the gas tank recall or seat belt anchors.

I believe Ford didn’t get serious about this issue until they got fined! Now we will see how fast they can fix what seems to be a software issue.

What do you want them to fix? MY25 doesnt even have the same infotainment system in it at all. It runs SYNC4, which has been in other Ford vehicles for years and any related recalls for that system would have been addressed already by now. Seems to me they fixed it.


As far as the CV axles go, the recall CV axles are supposedly beefier than the original ones. Im assuming MY25 will have those.

It appears they are attempting to address the issues, at least, from one MY to another, as you would expect.

2024 Lariats can be sold. They aren't affected by the Euro-Lite Sync 2.5 camera issues. Lariats have a full run of the mill Sync3 applicaiton.
