One week of scheduling for the Mav and four weeks in April for the Bronco Sport. The Sports are sitting on dealers lots everywhere. Lord, please help me understand...
No experience with hybrids, but from all the symptoms everyone is describing, it sounds like there is condensation in the exhaust restricting exhaust flow. This would account for the erratic idle, water under the truck (from the drain holes in the muffler which would explain why they are there...
Brake fluid is hydroscopic, absorbs water, and when contaminated with too much water will cause braking problems such as corrosion and loss of brake performance. The water can boil off in a hot caliper turning to vapor which is compressible and cause a spongy feel to the brakes. Follow the...
If Ford says they are going to be producing MY23 Mavericks beginning Oct of 22, that tells me they are going to at least TRY to produce MY22 until September.

Not really expecting mine today since this scheduling counts toward January allocations and my dealer has used theirs for the month. But just you wait until next week!
Ford obviously knows what's been ordered and from which dealer. I can't help but believe that the factory only gives an allocation to dealer who has an ROVP they can actually build. My dealer has five orders ahead of mine who ordered before me, but they are all HB and mine is an EB with no...
