  1. Burning Question Still Burns — Maverick 12v. Battery

    I dealt with this issue on my '22 and went through 3 batteries. I traded it for what I paid after taking delivery of a '24 Lariat Hybrid. I assumed they had addressed the battery saver issue but alas my assumptions were wrong. This one is actually worse. Several weeks at the dealership and no...
  2. Well, it finally happened to me

    No one will be paying for any software update that is dedicated to rectify an issue for which there was previously no fix, expired warranty or not.
  3. Well, it finally happened to me

    It's the neverending story Deb. I went through 3 batteries under warranty with my '22 XLT. Then this past March I traded it for a '24 Lariat in part to get away from that issue. And guess what? This time it's worse with continuous battery saver mode and a no start like you. I jumped it with my...
  4. Remote Features Disabled To Preserve Battery Life.

    I feel your pain. I had the battery replaced three times on my '22 XLT. It didn't make a difference. So I traded it for a '24 Lariat. So far it has spent a total of two weeks in the bay for the battery saver issue including a new battery. Still no resolution in sight, only lip service and the...
  5. 2025 front plate bracket location?

    Just don't do it! I drove my Mustang for over 10 years without a front plate in Ohio before they finally changed that law here. My 5.0 screams pull me over but I never had a problem.
  6. 2024 California Hybrid muffler “patina”

    I believe that is what's known as "blueing". It is a chemical reaction on the aluminium surface created by excessive heat, which is usually normal. My question would be why is your hybrid muffler getting that hot? Hmm, probably nothing to be concerned about.
  7. Wireless cell phone charging

    Leave it to a HAM, well done. I hope it works better than the factory charging pad in my Lariat. That thing was more effective as a hot plate. I chose to use fuse position 18 to power my dash cam instead. I'll never miss the pad.
  8. Replacing the Hybrid's OEM 12v. Battery

    Obviously made in China. All of the misspellings are a dead giveaway. Speaking of dead, one of the reviews stated DOA. And the price is a little suspicious as well. I'm not trying to be critical, just really skeptical for these reasons. I am on the verge of springing for an AGM. The deep sleep...
  9. accelerates on its own after jump start

    That all sounds about right. Except when it happened to me after jumping it actually drove fine with all of the warning lights and indicators going off. The dealership reset it and dropped in a new battery.
  10. Removing wax residue from black plastic trim?

    Mothers Back to Black. I used it on my '11 Mustang 5.0 after about a dozen sloppy coats of paste wax. It all disappeared.
  11. First battery saver measage

    Good luck! Unless they happen to find a current draw somewhere, it won't make a difference.
  12. Dear Ford

    To clarify: The hybrid model was not involved in that recall.
  13. I have the best Cubby Cover (An admittedly biased opinion)

    Very nice David! Happy Veterans Day and thank you for your service.
  14. Dear Ford

    You could've purchased a 22 or 23 Toyota Tundra instead. Their latest recall only involves a simple engine replacement.
  15. Vehicle in battery saver mode

    Don't waste your time messaging the Ford rep. You will not find resolution there. Ask me how I know. Wait...no don't ask.
  16. Battery Saver Mode - Constantly

    Meanwhile back at the Ford ranch, my 24 Lariat is taking up space somewhere in the service bay for the second time in a month for this same issue. The first time was a full week with nothing to show for it except "your battery is good". Now we're on day 4 of the second half of the pocket pool...
  17. Battery issue

    Unfortunately you are likely in for a frustratingly protracted process that will lead to a whole bunch of lip service, testing and no satisfying resolution. However, IF your factory battery does test bad and they replace it, the deep sleep issue or battery saver mode MIGHT disappear. At least...
  18. 2023 Hybrid battery saver mode

    All I can say is good luck Edward. I've been dealing with this very problem for about three months now in my 24 Hybrid. A new OEM battery installation followed by a full week in the service department and nothing has changed. Battery saver mode every single day with voltage readings around 11.6...
