I believe your analysis is dead on. This was Ford's biggest failure with the launch of the Maverick.
Another thing to consider, (for good or for bad), is the quantity and variety of vehicles Ford has brought to market during Covid: Maverick, Bronco, Bronco Sport, F-150 Lightning and Mustang...

My experience with a GTA dealer is this: I ordered before the increase and took delivery well after the increase. My window sticker was printed after the increase, but the price reflected the pre increase price, which is what I paid. In Ontario the dealer cannot charge more than the MRSP on the...
It sure sounds brake related. It could be a rock as mentioned above, or the brake pad fell off, or, as happened to my son's Scion, the brake pads weren't secured by the factory. I think someone here had a Maverick shipped missing the brake pads entirely, if I remember correctly.
