Yes I agree this is most likely a liability and not a capability issue. My 22 Maverick does not disable this feature when towing and it really works great.
Yes my 22's battery was replaced. If your Maverick has an Enhanced Flooded Battery they will replace it with an AGM. They actually scheduled a mobile unit to come out to my place of work. It was painless.

Hey Maverick Fans, chime in about this news article.
I personally disabled start stop on day one with ForScan on my Mav.
Interested in what you all think.
I'm interested in this too. Does anyone have the correct specs of the lug nuts for the Maverick. The ebay link show a set but says it's not compatible with the Maverick.
That's a sweet ride! I'm an NB Miata fan as well. I had the opportunity to drive the twisties at Miata's at the Gap in 2024. Looking forward to it this year again!
And who says the Maverick can't do real truck stuff? I have done quite a bit of towing with my 22 Maverick (named Lil Britches).
I call my Mav "Lil Britches" just because it's littler than the bigger cousins. But it does pretty much the same thing the big ones are doing while sipping less gas along the way.

I know there’s a recall, but with parts still...
I went with the Lariat, Lux Pack, FX4, and Tow Package on my 22 Mav. This was the best decision after owning it for 2 years now. The price was very reasonable back then too. I love the lane assist!
My only gripe with Little Britches is that my wife has completely taken over driving it! I was under the impression she didn’t even like trucks—guess I was wrong!
I also have the bed carpet, so after a heavy rain or car wash, I make sure to leave it open in the sun to dry. This has been effective in preventing mold and any unpleasant odors. Your cover also has a couple of drain hoses on each side. They should stay inserted on the side holes of the bed to...
I worked for a parts manufacturer for many years and saw firsthand how quality certifications function more as a business scheme than a true measure of standards. The certifying bodies profit from issuing their rubber-stamped approvals, while companies scramble to appear compliant only when...
Update – 04/29/2025: Received a notification that the replacement parts were available. I contacted my local Ford dealer, and they arranged for a mobile service unit to install the new battery at my workplace, super convenient. A new AGM battery was installed, none of my vehicle settings were...
