  1. Shudder at 50mph

    what is going on with these CV axles??
  2. Ford Maverick Parking Brake issue

    Wow that is a bug. I would start making a video every time this happens, and in every video be thorough in demonstrating the problem and in particular that it is not operator error (ie doors *are* closed, foot *is* depressing the brake pedal etc). Hopefully it gets the dealer to become more...
  3. Ford Maverick Parking Brake issue

    Are you not able to release the parking brake when this happens? What happens when you try to release the brake? Also, when the parking brake becomes stuck like this - have you tried just putting the truck in gear and driving? The parking brake will normally release automatically when the...
  4. Side curtain airbag recall left Maverick dead

    Wow are these techs wearing golf cleats when they works on these interiors? How do you scratch up a car interior so bad otherwise??
  5. WARNING: Survey Savvy e-mails.

    This ^^^ But they do throw in a few trick questions to make sure people aren't just rando-clicking. Many of these questions are designed to determine what type of buyer you are. They do share commonality with portions of personality tests but if your tin-foil hat is feeling a little tight...
  6. Hybrid Battery Remaining Charge

    Serious question: what would you do with the information even if it was presented to you? It's not like you can do much about the charge level, unlike a PEV
  7. Newest Ford special service message on Hybrid 12v Volt Battery Drain Problem

    Tale as old as time. There is nothing worse than dealer installed aftermarket junk on a brand new car. Just profit center garbage. I'd rather just hand them the extra money they would have made on that flotsam and tell them to keep their wire cutters and crimp tools away from my vehicle. I...
  8. Rear ended in my 2023 Lariat Tremor... Sub 1500 miles

    Call it a frame or a hitch mount. Whatever you call it, it is held on by four bolts and if that mount ever gets bent you don't sweat it, you just replace it yourself in the driveway. But as we have seen in several crashes from the rear, that hitch mount does nothing but transfer force to the...
  9. Why are so many Mavericks getting rear ended?

    brake light on while coasting/regen is a dumb idea and you will never see nhtsa mandate it.
  10. Rear ended in my 2023 Lariat Tremor... Sub 1500 miles

    There won't be any frame damage, because there is no frame...
  11. Got it back from body shop

    That bumper to fender gap don't look great. Wider at the top and almost touching at the bottom. My OCD could not abide that... Here's a reference photo from a brand new truck
  12. Oil life not accurate?

    Personally I would do the first oil change at 3k - 5k and from then on follow the maintenance minder.
  13. Drive shaft loose

    The guy you replied to (15 months later) had an ecoboost AWD with an actual drive shaft. You have CV Axles, which are different. There are a lot of Hybrids having issues with CV axles. How many miles on your truck?
  14. Venerable Charcoal Canister

    yes, there are a lot of low hanging giblets and nothing to protect them but one's imagination. Quite a few others have also found this out the hard and expensive way.
  15. heat exchanger

    yikes :oops:
  16. As the issues list grows......concerned...kind of

    Pictures alone are no good anymore. The dealer may infer that you are shady for even taking pictures, per another thread here. So also take a VIDEO. Uninterrupted video, clearly showing your vehicle on the dealer lot then you do a walkaround with slow closeups and then you go inside and film...
  17. Shady dealer tactics still going strong

    Sue them for identity theft and conversion. They used your ID to obtain these vehicles that they could not have obtained otherwise. That Ford allows this to happen with no consequence, is one of the big reasons I walked away from Ford and will never look back.
  18. To Salvage, or not to be.

    Only salvaged wrecks come out of Rancho Cordova. Wrecking yard capital of Norcal
  19. To Salvage, or not to be.

    oh helllz no. don't even waste your time looking at it.
  20. Hybrid Shudder when accelerating between 50-60mph

    Bad CV Axle(s) For whatever reason they are failing prematurely on these trucks. Either a manufacturing defect or design defect.
