.. These hybrids seem to have a mind of their own, don't they? ..

.. Buy what you want, but if you think that the 2.0 turbo has been trouble free, you'd be wrong.

.. Yup. Good move. ..

.. It appears that Mach 1 has taken his ball and gone home. He has removed his posts concerning transmission shudder and the cable lug fix. Hmmm... ..

.. Open the hood, shine a flashlight down there and you can see enough of the topside of the under engine guard to detect any fluid leaks. As others have said, never take your truck to a quick oil change joint. Go to the dealer or a trusted local repair shop. ..

.. Yes. ..

.. I think that would be E: All of the above. Ha! ..

.. I have 10,400 miles on my hybrid and nothing remotely close to a shudder. I have a feeling this is similar to the poor wiring harness connector, in that, some will experience it and some will not. So far I am good on both counts. Poor quality control? Inferior materials? Poor engineering...

.. I am aware of the poll. A random poll on a Maverick forum and you're gonna go with that number? If it was a 15% failure rate of every hybrid built and sold around the globe, Ford would have stopped production immediately. 15% is huge, and dealers would be inundated with dead hybrids. Of...

No.

.. I appreciate what you say. Being informed, self educated, (aren't we all), is great. But many of us, myself included, may have the skills and know how but are unable to do so because of aging hands that do not work like they once did. I also appreciate your willingness to do the work for...

.. Have you watched any of the Weber University videos on the Ford eCVT? The eCVT is simpler and less complex than the 8 speed torque converter transmission in the EB. Nothing wrong with the 8 speed, but the eCVT is extremely robust and reliable. They have been around for a good long time. ..

.. Did you hear that? Yeah, what is it? It's those stupid louvers vibrating, but you only notice it above 55mph. I like grape jam. ..

.. OCD Overkill. ..

.. Beeping noise? What did they do to address the beeping noise? They can write anything in the notes that they want to. Why didn't you ask the service manager about the beeping noise? "Oh yeah, that's what it does in reverse, sorry about the excessive unnecessary mileage we put on your truck"...

Hybrid XLT built the first week of April, '22, delivered at the end of May, '22. Just over 10,000 trouble free miles.

.. What?! ..

.. He might be able to get a free oil change out of it. ..

OP, Removing four shutter vanes and drilling drainage holes in the under engine guard does not require ANY road testing. How do I know? I watched the tech through the waiting room window perform the recall on my truck in under an hour. When he was done he drove the truck around front and gave...
