No doubt it’s a first world problem but passive entry spoils you. I don’t use it at all on passenger side door but if it was on tailgate, I’d use it 4-5 times a day.and some days a lot more.

Daily but generally short trips. So I guess batt is not getting fully charged. totally ok with no Autostop so best not poke a leeping bear and get the blinker recall update. Just in case.

Common in a light vehicle with lighter rear end. Holds the road better than I expected but you got to pay attention in certain conditions. ACC holds it steady for me on longer treks.

If the blinker update fixes it, not getting the recall what would the battery not hold a charge? Defective ? 3 months it’s been off now and not a cold winter at all.

About 3 months now. Quite happy about this and nothing else seems affected. I have no inclination to mention the failure when I get the blinker recall addressed. anyone else have this crap out ? This could possibly indicate a battery that doesn’t fully charge ?

there was a brief window when only the bronco sport harness was avail which still required a splice. They did fix the issue quickly. We can only hope the passive tailgate fiasco is remedied before the Mav’s reputation suffers a serious blow.

No because I can lock both from said keypad. It’s should act like a harder to use passive entry

Will prolly update when I get the stick on keypad, until then, argue amongst yourselves

The simpler and more convenient way should be to apply the stick-on battery keypad on the tailgate unless there's some reason you cant have 2 keypads. My truck came with the factory mount keypad. I have a stick-on on order. Used to apply Pop&Locks to old school tailgates or had a locking cap...

here maybe this will help. Again, Ford fixed this so kudos to them. We can only hope they remedy the passive-entry debacle in as timely a manner Unless your truck came with the wiring harness, there's not anything you can add right now to make it work, including "hot wiring", or connecting...

not that confusing There were no wiring options very early on. There were several threads like that one. No harness from Ford or aftermarket. No pigtail or harness like the Hyundai included and like every other truck in existence has on no tow vehicles. Only way was wire splicing. Risky...

Yup. That’s a good thing. But it is annoying as hell as I work and play out of the tailgate. Sure would be nice to have passive entry

Passive entry to the tailgate. Not real confusing Maybe I can move the passenger side sensor to the tailgate ? I still have an old work truck with crank windows and manual pop up door locks. Prefer the new methods.

Keypad on the tailgate should fix it if it can work with the factory wired keypad that came with my truck. I see Ford no longer offers the factory keypad. They prolly read the forum and see most people just shrug their shoulders and bend over. I

I do have a 4k tow package truck. don’t think you understand the issue for those who didn’t purchase the $100 tow package or were forced due to production issues to take one. Unlike every other truck on the planet it was almost impossible to wire even a 4. Ford fixed it. Even though there...

Yea. This was the issue in a few threads. Early days. Design flaw. This is an update to a post I made a few weeks ago, and is information for those of us who bought a Maverick w/o the 4 pin wiring harness and tow/hitch from the factory for $100. To recap my situation, I ordered a Maverick...

I see they sell an approved harness now for non tow package Mavs. looking back over those threads it’s funny to see the same type of comments about it being a cheap truck so don’t complain. lol

Did they ever fix that wiring issue, not being “controller” ready if you didn’t order the tow package. That was a design flaw I remember on the early Mavs. is that still a thing ? Haven’t been paying attention.

Go nuts. Start with the Bronco Sport. Straight up trucks, which the Mav is not, you need to bump up a trim So put it on the Lariat or Lux or make it an add on at the very least.

Who is complaining about heated seats and dampened tailgates? Door sensor on the tailgate. Something that’s mostly standard on all new cars and trucks even at base trim. It’s a very functional feature, hardly extraneous. Put it on the Latiat only or as an add on so all the manly men who want...
