  1. Beware: Heat Exchanger not covered under warranty

    I am not 100% sure but it looks like this is your warranty manual. https://www.ford.com/cmslibs/content/dam/brand_ford/en_us/brand/resources/general/pdf/warranty/2022-Ford-Car-Lt-Truck-Hybrid-Warranty-version-2_frdwa_EN-US_12_2020.pdf Check your paper warranty manual to see if is the same. On...
  2. Beware: Heat Exchanger not covered under warranty

    You are lucky in that you can likely sell it for about what you paid for it once it is fixed so that sounds like a good option since you have lost confidence in it. Be sure to have an independent mechanic look at it since it may not really be that problem or it could be a lot less expensive to...
  3. Maverick Scheduling 3/16 -- May Scheduling Through Week of 5/29

    My EB(XLT,Lux,360) was originally schedule for the week of 3/27 then as I checked the tracker it changed to 3/28, then 3/31, then about two weeks ago to Thursday 3/30. I just checked and it is the same. Those are all in the same week so I don't know why the day was changing. As I recall the...
  4. What a mess, Maverick is on its way!

    No need to be that complicated. They can just have every employee at the dealership order a Maverick. I would think that even a mid-size dealership would have a couple of dozen employees.
  5. What a mess, Maverick is on its way!

    I would also assume that they give the abandoned order the highest priority so that they will get that ahead of other customer orders.
  6. Hybrid vs Tremor - which one to keep: The showdown of our lifetime

    I had a pre-order set up for a Hybrid set up in August but by the time the order book opened in September it was pretty clear that the the Hybrid would be in very short supply so I also entered a second order for an Ecoboost at a different dealership. Since then it seems like the hybrid has...
  7. Ford ESP should I get one?

    I plan on buying one but I have not decided on the details yet since our Maverick likely will not get here until April or May. We normally buy cars like Toyotas, Hondas, or Subarus so this will be our first Ford and it does not sound like it can be expected to be as reliable as some of the...
  8. (Bought! $1,500 ADM) - 2023 Hybrid XLT offer to buy I received...

    Good decision to get it. Ford has said they do not plan on any price protections for people who have orders that roll over to 2024s and there will no doubt be price increases. You will also save money every time you fill up the gas tank.
  9. Thinking about put on some reflective tape for added visibility at night….

    I can remember my dad doing that as far back as the 1960s and I have always done that on my cars. I have even gotten my son into doing that too. I recall seeing a post awhile back where they had put reflective lettering into the indented "Maverick" that is on the tailgate so that could be a...
  10. Maverick is in, road trip to Granger

    An additional complication with storing it could be sales tax and registration so be sure to look into that. There could be some sort of time limit to get it out of state without paying those. I don't have clue how that would work. There could also be car insurance issues with storing it...
  11. Ditch the Hitch and Factory Closed Week of April 3

    Me too. The current packages are sort of lame after they have taken things out of them but for an XLT you have to get the Lux package to get the more adjustable power seats. From what I have read having an unneeded hitch can be a problem if you are rear ended since it directs more energy to...
  12. Updated Commodity Constraints List as of 2/13/23

    The problem is that there is no way to know anything about the allocations. Up through about August Ford was even saying that allocations would not matter and they would be built based on when the order was received.
  13. Still can't believe the wait is over

    Flood Ford and I think Granger Ford are known for selling extended warranties at near cost. You might want to what price they are selling them for. If they are a lot less you may be able to cancel yours and buy one from them or you dealer may price match. https://www.floodfordesp.com/
  14. Need help locating Maverick hybrid XL

    If you do get lucky and find a Maverick or some other car then be sure to research the rules in Colorado for bringing in a car from out of state. It varies greatly with the state laws but in the worst case he could end up having to pay a lot for Iowa registration and sales tax and then when...
  15. My Maverick arrived, but not as ordered

    It is extremely rare but not unheard of for a dealer to give you the wrong car when they have two similar cars at the dealership. Be sure to check the VIN on your Maverick to make sure that it matches the VIN on your paperwork. The chances that this happens are 1 in a million but it can happen.
  16. 2 months old engine - now it's super noisy - Should I take it the dealer?

    You should have taken to the dealer a month ago when it started making the noise. Of course you should take it in.
  17. Order an off-the-lot Maverick vs Custom Build (my situation)

    Option three would be to keep looking for an Ecoboost XL with no or very little makeup. The hybrids are real hard to get which is why they can charge the ADM but $5K will buy a lot of gas. When(or if) your XLT comes in your could see what you could sell or trade the XL for then and then...
  18. No owners manual holder :(

    Somewhere in your plans you may want to download a PDF of the manual to your phone.
  19. Prioritized List of Upgrades for XL Mav

    Budget for snow tires and an extra set of rims if you are in an area where they would be useful. Extra keys. There was a thread a within the last few days by a lock smith about how to get them at a more reasonable price but it sounded like you needed two keys to do some of the setup. I would...
  20. Any problem with not having a bed liner?

    Hopefully my Maverick will be built and arrive in April. It is an Ecoboost/XLT/Lux/360 in Atlas Blue. It will not have a bed liner unless I add one. We will not be doing much with the truck bed except for things like the proveriable Home Depot and dump runs. I had planned on getting a...
