Very helpful, thank you!

My trout-spotted truck next to a gem of a Minnesota trout stream.

I like yours much better. Rivian has a ridiculous front end. IF you get a Mav at MSRP, Rivian also has a ridiculous price.

I just changed my Maverick oil. First time I have ever done that. I was inspired to do so after getting one card from a metro dealership asking ninety-nine bucks, and another from a small town dealership offering to do the same “The Works”, for fifty-nine. I learned that the Mav will tell you...

Copacetic, baby.

Finally got it back on Tuesday this week. They mysteriously had the parts shipped to them.

That sucks. Ask if you can lock in an interest rate.

I called in December and January and they told me they would contact me when the airbags and parts were in. By the end of January, I called them. They scheduled my truck for Feb. 21, but did not have the parts in and did not call me to re-schedule. Meanwhile, my Mav has been in their shop for...

And the parts to fix it are also made of unobtanium. You’re all sitting on a time-bomb. I loved my truck until it went into a shop on Feb 20th for a problem that has no ETA on parts.

Under the lemon law, “The Manufacturer’s Duty to Refund or Replace 1. Four or more unsuccessful attempts to repair the same defect; or, 2. One unsuccessful attempt to repair a defect that has caused complete failure of the steering or braking system and that is likely to cause death ore...

It would be a long way to haul it on a flat-bed from Minnesota, but I appreciate the offer. I had them look for salvage parts on your advice.

I am beginning to think so.

In the shop for more than a month now. The dealership has ordered new parts that have been on back order all this time. They have inquired about salvage parts but can not use them because they would be damaged in removal. Today they tell me that the parts on back order are discontinued with no...

I asked the dealership to do this work and they said, ok but it has to be approved by the insurance company. I called the insurance company and they said “what?” Some concern about the value of the vehicle. Vehicle is paid for, and it is of no value to me sitting in pieces outside their shop!

I mis-stated “warranty work” in my initial post, when I meant recall work on the airbags. Sorry to have lead you down that rabbit hole. So I was puzzled at your prosecution of the matter which showed me “admitting” it was quoting from the three recall letters I have gotten Your effort to...

Thanks. Yeah, they have escalated and FoMoCo says I’m front of the line for parts.

None of this is Warranty work, by the way. The truck is in for recall work. Numerous posts in this site are about thin, fragile parts and questionable workmanship. Ford Tough does not describe holes in gas tanks caused by installation of the bed liner, for instance. The truck had an...

I am adjusting my expectations left and right. I have not asked anyone to pay for my time and aggravation. I am venting here about that. There is, however, a significant disconnect between what FoMoCo writes and what the dealer delivers. I am comparing the handling of recall work, and general...

From the two letters about the airbag recall, for which the Mav had an appointment the day after I brought it in for the fuel line problem. They won’t do the airbag work, other than tearing my vehicle apart, until they have the fuel line junk. So it is effectively off the road, hostage to the...
