  1. Gas pump shutting off and gas spilling out

    This hasn't happened on my Maverick (only one fill up so far), but I've had it happen on two different occasions on my wife's '17 Escape. It seems to be something with certain pumps and the easy fill system.
  2. Ambient Temperature Sensor Issue - When Raining with Short Trips

    This is the part: https://parts.ford.com/shop/en/us/electrical/sensorsdevices/sensor-assy-7821147-1#/sectionId:446280859 Not sure on the location, but my understanding is that it's located behind the front bumper.
  3. Ambient Temperature Sensor Issue - When Raining with Short Trips

    Update to add to the knowledge base. My dealer got the new ambient temperature sensor installed this morning and the drive home went fine. Definitely got a more predictable cut over to the battery after accelerating from a stop light and then backing off the throttle. Managed to get ~50mpg on a...
  4. Ambient Temperature Sensor Issue - When Raining with Short Trips

    Adding info to the thread in case anyone else ends up with the same issue. The service folks at the dealership determined that all of the codes and errors were being caused by a faulty ambient temperature sensor. They have a new one on order and intend to have it installed in the morning and...
  5. Ambient Temperature Sensor Issue - When Raining with Short Trips

    Over the last week, any time it’s raining out the outdoor ambient temperature sensor in my truck will spontaneously fail or read incorrectly. It will read 10F when it’s 60F out for example. I’ve also noticed that when that happens it runs the ICE like it is in fact cold out, so it takes a lot...
  6. What comes next for the Ford Maverick? (Jalopnik article)

    I think that's what the CEO meant a few months ago when discussing a Maverick "line" of affordable vehicles. I'm thinking something like the original Escape with the same front end and relatively utilitarian interior styling of the Maverick. The Escape becomes the road trip family SUV and the...
  7. 1up bike rack installed

    I have a Kuat Transfer. Haven’t had a chance to mount it yet, but hoping that the tailgate will clear in the low position. I’ll post the results when I get a chance. I also have an EVOC half size pad on the way and some fork mounts kicking around that I’ll experiment with in the bed with the...
  8. Finally Built

    Delivered, paperwork done and got to drive it before it went in for detailing. Officially taking delivery on Thursday. For anyone keeping track of these things, here's what my timeline ended up being from ordering to taking delivery this week: Ordered: 7/14/21 Confirmed: 7/14/21 Scheduled for...
  9. Finally Built

    Not a clue, but it was delivered to the dealer this morning and I'm headed over at lunch time to start the paperwork!!
  10. Finally Built

    Looks like the wait is almost over! My truck is awaiting pickup at the rail yard in Spencer, MA. So whatever the delay was in NJ must have been resolved on Thursday or Friday. Hopefully I’ll have the truck in my hand by the end of the week. Hope others have seen similar progress. I find it odd...
  11. Finally Built

    Keeping this updated in case anyone else is in a similar boat. Talked to both my dealer and Ford customer service today and both were able to inform me that my truck was last in New Jersey as of Wednesday and there was a rail delay that is pushing my delivery out by a week or so. Curiously both...
  12. Finally Built

    Congrats! My truck has gone dark/missing over the last few days. It had been posted to my dealer's website as "In Transit" but it, along with a few other Mavs, disappeared from the site over night last night. In addition, the Ford tracker went down for me earlier today and what little I can...
  13. Finally Built

    I haven't pushed too hard as they're not super forthcoming with information and I don't want to annoy anyone about it since it won't get here any faster, but just e-mailed to see if they can send a copy.
  14. Finally Built

    Hopefully mine is on that train as well. Dealer couldn't find a rail car number when I called today and whatever system they use is still saying delivery between 3/14 and 3/20 despite no updates on its location since 2/19. Ford tracker is down again too.
  15. Finally Built

    That's supposedly Mechanicville, NY outside Albany.
  16. Finally Built

    My truck appeared last night on my dealer's website as in transit, so it means it's moving at least. They didn't give me a rail car number to track, but based on the Ramp code on my window sticker, it looks like it will be on rail until it's outside Worcester, MA, and then come back to Holyoke...
  17. 2021 Escape Hybrid Engine Recall

    Doesn't seem like anything to worry about. Looks like a manufacturing issue from a very short window of time. "Affected vehicles: select 2021 Ford Escape Hybrid models produced between April 6th, 2021, through May 17th, 2021, at the Ford Louisville Assembly Plant. Number of vehicles affected...
  18. Estimated delivery date disappeared from tracker

    Same here, estimated delivery date of March 20 disappeared this morning. Hopefully it is just a tracker issue..
