Four months into my new Maverick... have a few Mabett products installed. Been looking for a center armrest cover; as others have said, the default cover is weak sauce. Haven't been impressed with the available aftermarket covers... until this one. Ordered. Thanks for the discount. Hope it lives...
From the WSJ:
Ford is recalling about 694,000 vehicles over potentially cracked fuel injectors that may leak and increase fire risk.
The recall affects Bronco Sport (2021-2024) and Escape (2020-2022) models equipped with 1.5-liter engines.
Ford estimates recall costs at $570 million, but those...
Sounds like a great trip.
A little jealous of your Adaptive Cruise Control. My XLT has lane keeping but not ACC.
I guess I don't really need it; retired, pleasure cruiser, etc. If I were in bumper-to-bumper daily I'd have it in a heartbeat.
Had my previous vehicle in the shop for a while, got...
TL/DR: Stick-on tactile bumps can serve as 'home key' locators, making it easier to operate essential controls on the Maverick’s glass cockpit touchscreen.
Aside from the 2025 front-grille nosejob, the most hated/criticized feature of the truck is likely the switch away from tactile controls...
The Car Scanner ELM OBD2 software has a great website which, among other things, has a helpful list of OBD2 dongles that will work with the app.

I bought the least expensive adapter on the list. It's working fine.
• The Scanner app has Maverick profiles up to and including 2025. I bought the Pro Edition.
• Yes, the adapter does eventually power down; also it's an easy software-button push to disconnect the software from the adapter.
• The phone is an obvious loss-leader for Tracfone. At $30 it's a steal...
TL/DR: Used OBD2 port hardware + Android software + inexpensive Android device to create an auxiliary dashboard instrument gauge.
I’m a new 2025 Maverick XLT hybrid owner. I was looking for a way to monitor a few vehicle data points not generally or quickly available. Some were items I wanted...
I've been using the A119 Mini 2 for about 2 and 1/2 months and have been 100% satisfied. Like any of these gizmos you have to learn to do some fancy dancing in the way that it wants to work, but when you get the steps figured out it's a piece of cake. Images are big and sharp when I transfer to...
Yeah, I did notice the deep sleep "feature" on the sticker... . I think for me the real question is why would I get a Deep Sleep notice if the state of charge on the battery was 42%?
I have a 2.5 month old 2025 Ford Maverick XLT hybrid, with a Ford AGM 12v battery. This evening my Ford app delivered a Deep Sleep notice.
I went to the garage and was able to start up with no problems. My OBD2 software said the 12v state of charge was at 42%, which is typical over time.
Took...
My previous vehicle (’99 Tacoma 2-door) had, I swear, tallow candles for headlamps. Super wimpy. The high efficiency lamps in the Maverick are the kind of headlights I used to cuss at coming at me, because they were so bright. At the slightly higher elevation on the ’25s, I'm sure I'm getting...
