Blessed to live in North Florida where winter preparation consists of making sure my antifreeze is protected against the once a decade drop into the teens. If we get ice (about once every 20+ years) or any meaningful snow accumulation (about once every 15 years) we simply STAY HOME😅

I believe it's still visible but through a different menu. I think you can choose to display it on your view setting

Both. Some early generation hybrids suffered from premature bearing failure. But generally the hybrid transmission doesn't produce much metal or any other contamination. The design is just that simple and time tested

Wow! Looks like you got a lemon. Most of us had relatively trouble free or at least minimal trouble with ours. The Maverick actually has a good reliability record. I hope they get it straight

Has it ever gotten above 120? If so, does it immediately cool down to 120 or below?

If the EV is what it seems to be, I'll definitely give it strong consideration. Otherwise, I'll gladly get another hybrid

What you're likely feeling is the transition from regenerative braking to the hydraulic brakes . It's more noticeable on some trucks than others. There may be an update available for the ABS module that may improve it. It probably won't completely go away

No lights, no performance degradation, no problem.

There's nothing in it that's not magnetic other than the case. No clutches. Just 2 electric motors, a planetary gear and bearings.

This is about the most inaccurate article I've seen in a looooong time

True. But some parents insist on buying a new vehicle for their kid. Or some young adults choose for their first vehicle to be New. I wouldn't. But IF they are going to purchase a new vehicle as their child's first vehicle, the Maverick makes better sense than a lot of other vehicles . It makes...

I believe that ability was disabled after an update. But if it makes you feel better, the light will still come on if the pressure drops while you're driving. I know because I picked up a screw. And the light came on after I'd been driving about 5 minutes.

No. Resetting the charge level won't. But I do wonder if they reset the battery monitor when it came in. It won't cause a draw that kills the battery. But it will give an incorrect reading to the system and put it into sleep mode too quickly. Also, I've seen a battery pass a test one week and...

I'll bet the battery is bad. We had a battery pass when the vehicle came in. The light came back on a few days later. We retested the battery only a few days later. And it failed. We replaced it. Customer is a regular. Says the problem has not reoccurred since. I wish Ford would simply...

I have a 2025 hybrid all-wheel drive with the 4K towing package. I bought it in May of 2025. As of today July 3rd 2026 I have 46,619 miles on it, thus far I have not had any issues. And I still have the original Goodyear Wrangler territory HT tires. They have almost half the tread still left...
