I just did a 1500 mile round trip from southwest MO to southern MI and back. Ninety percent interstate at speeds of 70-75 mph. My average fuel consumption for the trip was 39.6 mpg, and it was HOT until I got to northern IN and southern MI.
I now have over 5,000 miles on my hybrid and it...

This recall is not for the catalytic converter. The catalytic converter problem has been fixed with a software update. All Mavericks built after 03/09/22 have the update from the factory, others will need to go to a dealer for the update.

Thanks. I'm gonna order the RokBlokz today. I don't want to futz around with putting felt or some such thing between the flaps and paint on my current Ford flaps.

There was a notice from Ford about disconnecting the FordPass App. I think it had to do with using aftermarket, not Ford approved stuff. I will try to find it.

Are you taking your MAV to the dealer to have that connection looked at? The Ford app has caused problems for some. It can cause a 12v battery drain. Chicago Mike seems to be experiencing the problem.

No AC? Really? Honestly, I think your hybrid will be fine if you use the AC and automatic lights. As for the other stuff, I don't use them either because I have no use for them.

I can not find the thread but this has been mentioned before, and at least one member suggested not activating the Ford APP.
I know that the Gen 5 Toyota RAV4 hybrid had the same problem. The data control module went all wonky when certain things were activated by the user and it drained...
