  1. Front Suspension Clunk (CV Axle?)

    The dealer should want to fix this, whether under warranty or as customer-pay. Dealers get reimbursed by the OEM for warranty service at prescribed rates (usually a specified time for the procedure). There are typically commonly known issues that are preapproved by the OEM. Less common issues...
  2. Front Suspension Loose-Lumber Sound and Jounce - '24 XLT FX4 4K

    Thanks for the input. I'm scheduled for my 20K service and asked the dealer to look at the front and rear suspension. I'm hardly an off-roader, and it's disappointing to be experiencing this after a short trip down a potholed dirt road.
  3. Front Suspension Loose-Lumber Sound and Jounce - '24 XLT FX4 4K

    I own a '24 XLT FX4 4K with a little over 20K miles on it. I've treated the vehicle extremely well (as I do with all my vehicles). About a week ago, I was forced to drive down a heavily potholed Michigan dirt road for about a mile. Because of the poor condition of the road, I drove at about...
  4. Wind noise

    Interesting. I just returned from a 1,500-mile road trip with my '24 Ecoboost XLT FX4 4K. The wind noise is, in my opinion, excessive. Just checked and noticed my vehicle does not have them installed on either side. I'm wondering if this is intentional or if they're simply missing. Having...
  5. Ecoboost owners who live in hilly areas… what is your avg mpg?

    '24 FX4 XLT EcoBoost 4K, living in Michigan, semi-rolling hills, and I'm getting about the same as you.
  6. Ford Motor Company Announcement [CLOSED AND WARNINGS HANDED OUT DUE TO POLITICS]

    That's a shame, and perhaps a bit misguided. The monitoring of forums such as this one can be valuable not only for forum members but for the OEM. Members can feel listened to and gain meaningful insights from Ford, while Ford has potential to learn of concerns affecting customer satisfaction...
  7. Ford Protect extended service plan

    I oversaw a similar plan for a competitive OEM. Here are some data points: - First, these are not warranties; they are prepaid service plans. - Subscribers usually only utilize about 40% of the plan benefit; you are essentially purchasing peace of mind, much like when you purchase insurance. -...
  8. No-drill Mabett Light Bar installed

    These loo great on the Mav. From where does the bar draw power. And, how's the wind noise?
  9. How long to set acc power for 12V cooler?

    This won't directly answer you question, but may be a way of achieving your objective. I recently purchased an Anker Everfrost refrigerated cooler. I've got the 40L (it's actually 43). It will operate off the mains, 12V or removable battery. My wife and I recently did a 12-day roadtrip and...
  10. Rough Country Cargo Storage Box

    I like it. A question: How is the plywood holding the Husky tubs held in place? Is it simply sitting on top of the wheel housings, or is it held in place by the storage box when the tailgate is closed?
  11. Incredibly Bad hesitation/Throttle response

    As a longtime automotive industry veteran and several-time supplier to Ford, I'm extremely pleased to see your participation in our forum. Great way to keep a finger on the pulse of customer concerns, potentially preempting warranty and recall issues. Like the OP, mine has begun to exhibit...
  12. 2025 Eruption Green Maverick XLT Spotted on Video

    Yes, but the profile looks different from that on my '24.
  13. 2025 Eruption Green Maverick XLT Spotted on Video

    Looks like there’s a satellite radio antenna on the roof, as well.
  14. 2025 Maverick Lariat Facelift Refresh (Possibly Lobo) Spied in Black

    The mid-cycle refreshment treatments hint at improving aero (wheels included). Could be aimed at enhancing CAFE numbers or (heaven forbid) an EV variant.
  15. Towing 4,000lbs?

    That's helpful. From your experience with this combination, any suggestions you can share to enhance the towing experience. How's the fuel economy. Sorry if I've got too many questions. I'm analytical by nature and a bit of a data geek (though I'm in touch with my geekdom). Also, my wife...
  16. Towing 4,000lbs?

    I've got a'24 EcoBoost FX4 4K and am contemplating the T@b 320S. I'd be interested in learning more about your experience pulling this rig. It seems like a perfect pairing for the Maverick. I'm appreciative of any information you can share.
  17. New Ford Maverick Lighting Kits by Diode Dynamics | 1/18/24

    I suspect the deletion of fog lamps is a cost save to Ford, which is at a $7-billion manufacturing cost disadvantage to competitors, per the company. Additionally, Ford will see a 27% labor cost increase as a result of the new labor contract. When you look at the content load on competitive...
  18. Rolled the camper out of the garage today

    I've got a '24 Ecoboost FX4 with the 4K package. We are seriously contemplating the T@b 320S and I would be very interested to learn about your towing impressions and experience with the RV. Thanks in advance for your response.
  19. Best Soft Tri-Fold Bed Cover? Looking for Experience/Advice

    After quite a bit of research, I settled on the BAK BAKFlip MX4 trifold hard tonneau. I ordered mine on Amazon. It came quickly, was packaged extremely well and was easy to install. The installation instructions were excellent, and it took me only an hour or so to install and adjust. I've...
