It's a bit more subtle. Covers only hybrid models with the 4.2” instrument cluster display. So most hybrid XL and XLT, but not ones equipped with the optional 6.5” display, like the FX4 models. And not Lariats of course since they all have the 6.5” display.

Turns out it is relatively easy to make a charging harness for use under the rear seat. There is an unused stud on the positive battery terminal block, and a convenient ground on a nearby module. You can get a standard fused cable with SAE plug, tape it with loom tape to give it the factory look...

That must be a very generic Ford manual section, since most of those power points don’t exist. I could only wish for so many. Looking at the list provided in the manual in detail: On the lower instrument panel - We all get that one. Inside the center console - None in there On the front of the...

That’s how they get ya! Just that one more essential thing they purposely left out to force a move up to the next trim level. Ford has legions of marketeers who figure out what affects you the most and design the trim/package content accordingly. BTW, I have a Lariat lux, so clearly it worked...

Yep, the price increases and higher interest rates are pretty much bringing supply and demand back into equilibrium. The XL hybrid is really the only unicorn that could command a retail premium. And Ford did that on purpose to push people into a higher trim level.

Holding off on doing the update may work for now, but it will be virtually impossible to prevent it from being applied at some point. It’s a NHTSA safety related recall, so it will stick out like a red light on any documentation, including the Ford service booking software. Just taking it in...

The general intelligence consensus is a refresh in 2025 and a platform change in 2027/2028. Given the commercial success of the Maverick in its current form, the refresh is likely to be minor. Maybe some front end styling changes, some new electronic features, and some materials improvements to...

You are misunderstanding… 24atlasmaverick was referring to the foam engine cover that fits on the engine. The Corsair part does fit since it is the same engine, but it has a lincoln emblem. A couple of minor hardware items are also needed since they are omitted from the Maverick engine. Your...

Sounds like a boiler plate warning in case your dealer is not up to speed on the current mobile service methods. I got an unsolicited call from the local dealer saying their mobile service unit was out doing Ford software updates, and when’s a good time. A marked car arrived at the appointed...

Too much hate and anger… right from your initial post. So sad.

Maybe people read it that way, but it is a silly interpretation. There are plenty of useful mandates implemented for the common good, starting with the one about stopping at a stop sign. Besides, “should” in the original comment referred to individual cases where it made economic sense, not a...

Better still, only allow closed top containers like water bottles or restricted flow drinking cups. Having an open top container or cup of anything in a vehicle is just asking for a major spill to happen. As for OP spill, if there is a malfunction the offending switch module will have to be...

Ah, yes, that would make sense. DAB is in a different band and the basic C2 electrical architecture is global (Kuga in Europe), so it would have to support DAB. Although I’m sure the DAB front end has been depopulated on North American designated radio modules.

The Maverick paint quality is a new Ford feature to get you a head start on that desirable old truck patina look…

Interesting to note the Maverick wiring diagrams show a second diversity FM antenna input, with an “if equipped” dotted line box. *** Correction: FM2 is the antenna input for DAB in European C2 platform vehicles… perhaps a future European Maverick.

Lots of anger in these posts, probably because people spend too much money on incompatible LEDs. It’s pretty clear what has happened: The Ford update enables a more precise current measurement to enable detection of both 1 bulb and 2 bulb failures of the factory incandescent bulbs. In a nod to...

The current general consensus seems to be a mainly cosmetic refresh in 2025 meaning major changes (AWD, PHEV, Electric) will have to wait until the 2028 platform change. That doesn't mean they couldn’t get a hybrid AWD change slipped into the refresh, maybe driven by some press and customer...

If it happens again (it probably will) and you need to drive it, the quickest way to make it go away would be to unplug the B&O amplifier behind the rear seat. Based on your description, it is clearly some digital problem, not the passive speakers. When it happens again, you could do a quick...

Go with Granger Ford in Iowa. Consistently under MSRP and a great trouble free experience with no pushy dealer add-ons. Usually 3% below invoice, but Maverick currently $1000 under list. I’m in Texas and had no trouble with online ordering and bringing it down for local registration. It‘s quite...
