I don't understand what you are on about. Tell me about ALL the other issues. The OP's hack job was done by his crappy dealer NOT the factory. I have 10,000 trouble free miles on my MAV Hybrid, and if something does go wrong that is what my warranty is for. Sheesh!
And a bunch of you guys...

I live in southwest MO in the Springfield Plateau of the Ozarks. As you know, the Ozarks are incredibly beautiful, scenic, and challenging in the summer. The internet is your friend when property hunting. Good luck.

K&N? Why? An OEM air filter is your best bet.
When it comes to oil filters you will get many answers as to what people prefer. The Motorcraft FL-910S is a good filter and has the bypass valve at the base end instead of the dome end like most every other filter. Having the bypass valve at...

I doubt it has anything to do with the shutter system. I had mine done and no mention of a program update. In fact, I watched the tech do it through the waiting room window. No update done. I see that your Maverick is a relatively early build.
I suspect the update had to do with the over...

It is confusing, no doubt. And the specs change often. There is a small blender in Manteno, IL, High Performance Lubricants that blends some of the finest motor oils in the world and they are pricey. No certs. Why? If you were to contact them they would bend your ear about certs. They would...

I live deep in the Ozarks of MO. I live on a dirt road and travel miles and miles of steep and twisty dirt roads every day with my hybrid. Stock tires too, though eventually I will upgrade to an AT. The only problem I have is keeping it clean. Get the hybrid.

As far as I know, every 0W-20 oil that meets the Ford specification for the Maverick hybrid (WSS-M2C962-A1) is a full synthetic, though there may be a syn-blend or two available. Dino oil, and to a lesser extent, synthetic blends, are becoming things of the past for most every application...

Hybrids are typically not having battery issues, they are sometimes having a wiring harness issue. After watching your video I think it is not a wiring harness issue because that usually leaves you with zero juice, so no warnings on the dash can even happen. I have a feeling yours will be...

That is correct. I had to use the included funnel to add a can of fuel additive to the fuel tank. Any other funnel that you may have lying around will not work.

Maybe this has been mentioned in this thread. Dunno.......But...
If the special electric gas door fails to unlock there is a green colored pull cord release located in the driver's side wheel well.

I am an old Jew, I can not seem to help myself. And yes, I do find it amusing. Please note that I said my mpg is marginally better than my foot. You are correct in that there are a number of factors involved, so to me, that makes it a debatable topic. I guess I should have said...for me and...
