Yep. Happens maybe once every 10 or so trips taking my kids to school in the morning. Always tends to happen at a red-light that is 2 miles from my house (and between the light and my house is all 35 mph back-country road where I am about 70% on electric). Almost seems to be temperature related...
With the current HVB fully charged, you can probably go about 1.5 miles (at least that is as far as I could get on a flat road at about 20mph). As others have said, is it possible to convert to plug-in? Yes. There is even an open spot where you could add another small battery (which may get you...
There is only a loose correlation between electric miles and MPG. The mode you have the Maverick in will impact the amount of time you are in Electric (Normal/Eco/Slippery). The more energy generation you have, the more likely you will go into Electric mode. However, energy generation impacts...
Best bet is to just push and hold the OK button to reset the MPG. After about 5-10 miles you should have a decent baseline that will go up or down slowly based on driving conditions/speed. That will happen every time you reset the MPG after filling up. I drive like a granny and try to get the...
Roughly 3k miles on my hybrid and it has mostly been quite. Only time it has been noisy for me is occationally when I stop at a stop-light and the engine kicks on really loud for some reason (most of the time when the engine kicks on you can barely hear it). It is noisy and there is a little...
The "full charge to dead in a day" is definitely either a battery issue or an abnormal current draw issue. My guess is abnormal current draw assuming you are seeing at least 12.40V when checked at least an hour after a drive/charge (so minimal surface charge). I have everything turned off that I...
I drive lika a granny and generally have gotten 3-5 mpg higher than EPA estimates on all my vehicles over the last 30+ years. With 5k on my XL hybrid, I am averaging just north of 40mpg hand calculated (truck computer shows closer to 43 mpg). When I am doing long 250+ mile drives on back-country...
I looked at your spreadsheet and this bahavior is consistent with what others have reported. The BMS is designed to only charge the battery to 12.4V volts (roughly 80%) and not to 12.65V (100%). I can only assume this is due to some safety function that a lawyer is scared of (i.e., battery may...
Also used plumber's putty. Still getting water in somewhere but not a ton. I am 99% confident that whom-ever designed the original Ford cover screwed up and made it too short by about 1/2"-3/4". All the Chinese companies then copied this so are all short. On mine, I can have the "windshield...
Reading through this thread, there is a lot of mis-understood information that is leading people to the wrong conclusions. Just for "fun", I tested my battery basically twice a day for a little over a month. Here is what I learned:
1) When 100% charged, the OEM lead-acid battery has a max...
Not sure how Sames Bastrop made the "recommended litst". At best they are "neutral" (and I personally would put them as "avoid"). I live just a few miles from Sames Bastrop and would NOT recommend. I have yet to have anything even close to a good experience with them (including buying a new car...
I think you are confusing the 12V and the High Voltage battery. The 12V has nothing to do with the mileage (other than the 12V is not charging when you are using the HV battery). Where the 12V does come into play is the start-up and drive sequence. Every time you put in the key, it seems the...
I always lock via the key fob. I have the app totally turned off so never did that. My normal testing procedure is to unlock, get in the truck, lock via the key fob, wait for about 1 minute until all the internal lights go out, test voltage under the seat via volt-meter, wait about 2 more...
No, that should be normal. If you drive daily, you should be able to go about 1 week assuming you locked your doors but still have FordPass and tracking active. For folks that have everything on and don't lock their doors (so the truck "wakes up" frequently), should still go about 4 days in most...
If you check out my other posts, you will see that I have been testing almost daily for the last two months. The issue is that the Maverick has an absolutely huge parasitic draw. If you have FordPass on and don't lock the truck, you will get around .1V drop every day (way, way higher than the...
An eCVT is typically the most rugged type of transmission available. I think I have only seen 1 or 2 reports here on the forum of the eCVT having to be replaced. The number 1 issue that has been reported over the last 2 years is the "shudder" during the hand-off between ICE and electric. There...

Just pull on the top of the red tab to expose the gold-ish colored positive post.
Here you go. The color somewhat changes based on what angle you are looking at it from (somewhat like the A51). If you are looking at it straight-on, it is more black-ish while from an angle or with the sun it has more of the rainbow. At night it is a white-ish rainbow that can be seen from far...
I got mine from DiegosOutdoorGoods on Etsy based on a recommendation here. Could not have been happier. I ordered the Rainbow Lazer but in the comments I asked for the Black Reflective Holo (it wasn't an option for the Maverick but was for the Bronco sticker he sells). I got the Black Reflective...
The FordPass Points are highly misleading. The way Ford values them is a borderline scam. While I ultimately did get "free" stuff with my points, it ended up being about 40% less than I had initially anticipated based on the "value" of the points. The issue is that there are 5 prices for the...
