I think mud flaps would help some, but they'd have to be pretty big and wouldn't be totally effective. I suspect that there actually may be a factory panel for the left, used only for units with the 120 volt receptacle in the bed. I'll have to crawl under one to see. My guess it the one on...

I ordered an XLT hybrid with Lux pkg. last summer. It was eventually scheduled to be built in early January, but that was pushed back to mid, then late January. That suddenly was changed to late March, which meant it wouldn't arrive until mid-April at the earliest. My car died in December, so...

I got my Maverick hybrid last week, Weathertech does not list a set of mats for the hybrid yet. I took a chance and bought a set of front mats for a 2020-22 Escape hybrid. They are a perfect fit, both sides!

I'm picking my hybrid XLT up tomorrow, I'm quite excited!

I had this happen on a brand-new Escort back in the 90's. The dealer replaced the thermostat and the problem went away.

MIke, grab it! I ordered a hybrid XLT back in August. My Maverick was scheduled to be built in the beginning of January. My Focus died in December, so I figured I can make it a month or so using other cars. Then it got pushed back to mid-January production. Then late January production. A...

I would read quite a bit into that: Mine was ordered in August, was scheduled for January production way back in November. I ordered an XLT hybrid, no Co-Pilot 360 to keep the electronics down. My dealer's manager called his Ford rep and asked whether there was just a "pushback on Mavericks"...

Just remember that your speedometer also will read 3.5% low. An indicated 100km/h will really be 103.5km/h....

There may be some truth to this: My Maverick was scheduled to be built on January 17th, then was pushed back to January 31st. Suddenly last Friday that was changed to the week of March 14th and now is the week of March 21st. The last two are sudden, rather drastic changes. Something is...

Are you basing this on what the instrument cluster is telling you? Bear in mind that your 245's have a 3.5% greater circumference, so the displayed economy will show incorrectly. You will have actually travelled 103.5km but the Maverick will think it's only gone 100. Using that, you are...

The first two generations of Ford hybrid transaxles were made by Aisin, models HD-10 and HD-20, used on the early Escape and Fusion hybrids. The third- and fourth-generation transaxles are Ford designed and manufactured, HF35 and HF45, used in the 2013 and above Fusion, C-Max, Escape and...

Stock 411 said: "Also if you guys didn’t know, the Ford Hybrid system is effectively the same as Toyota’s Hybrid system" Technically, it is the other way around: The Toyota hybrid system, since 2015, is essentially the same as Ford's. When Ford developed their hybrid system in the early...

It certainly does sound like turning the heat to max is a requirement for it to kick on, doesn't it? Mine is still a month-and-a-half away, so I have no experience with it yet.

There actually is an electric heater in the HVAC system. From section 412-03, "Supplementary Climate Control", of the 2022 Maverick service manual: "Electric Booster Heater Operation The electric booster heater ensures that the passenger compartment can be quickly warmed up when ambient...

Electric motors in the hubs are nothing new, Porsche did it way back in 1900 (look up the Lohner-Porsche). The problem with them is that they add a huge amount of unsprung weight, which is bad for ride and handling, as well as giving the motors and tires a real beating.

We don't get e-mails from Ford like you folks in the U.S.A. do, unfortunately. Found out via my dealer.

Yup, and likely won't for another year.

My XLT Hybrid was scheduled to be built on Monday, January 17th. Yesterday that changed to the week of January 31st, with no specific day that week. :( Not sure the reason, but such are the times. All industries are dealing with manpower shortages currently on top of material shortages...

Canadian hybrids were built in the fall already and are continuing to built mixed in with U.S. hybrids. Mine is scheduled to be built on Jan 17th. Your dealer has incorrect information. :P

Awesome, congrats! Mine is scheduled to be built on the 17th; I ordered not long after you did. I figure I should have it in early February. I do know some Canadian hybrids were built in October, as one showed on a local dealership's inventory. However, it was built but sitting in Mexico...
