  1. Got oil change and transmission flush on Friday, now I notice I'm leaking transmission fluid in my driveway....

    I really don't understand why a Transmission Flush/Refill needs to be done 110,000 miles early. Seems like a time and money waster and can lead to problems if done incorrectly just like this one. From the Manual: Change Transmission Fluid Every 150,000 miles Only if you are constantly...
  2. Maverick crash into back of 18 wheeler 😥

    Shouldn't have any emoji much less than one that look like it's smiling. FYI this is the crying emoji :cry:
  3. Maverick crash into back of 18 wheeler 😥

    Why does the Title of this thread have a Smiley Face on it !!! :mad: Someone died
  4. Another one down - 2023 Maverick Lariat rear-ended and totaled

    Sorry this happened to you. Because the Maverick usually gets totaled when rear ended I had AllState put on "Auto Replacement Protection" on my policy. That way if I get totaled I get a brand new Maverick exactly like I have at no cost to me no matter how long I have owned it or if it...
  5. The last straw? (Vehicle down for 3+ weeks, with no end in sight.)

    OP has a 2023 Maverick. This issue was from the early 2022 Mavericks and not relevant to the 2023's.
  6. Say you had the cash to buy a Maverick outright and not have to make payments.

    I had money to buy my MY2022 Maverick outright but it was smarter to do payments as Ford offered me 36 months at 0% in December 2021. I kept the remaining cash in a Money Market fund that initially was earning 0.5% but grew to 4.35% when I paid off the loan on my MY2022 in August 2023 as I was...
  7. RESET Oil Life Monitor: Here is how to do it

    Thanks I finally found it with your help. It is under: Settings->Information->Oil Life->Reset Oil Life I somehow had the Information screen scrolled all the way to the last entry "Trailer Sway" and didn't know there were entries above it. So thanks. Here are pictures to help others.
  8. 2024 having 12v low voltage battery issues with my Hybrid...

    The pre-charge capacitor I know of is for the HV battery so that the contactors do not spark when closed. I have not heard of a pre-charge capacitor for the 12 Volt Battery.
  9. 2024 having 12v low voltage battery issues with my Hybrid...

    This is partially incorrect information. It is TRUE that you have to turn the key to get power to the accessory port. However you are wrong that in "accessory power" the DC-to-DC converter supplies power. With the key turned partially to "accessory power" and not all the way to "Ready" the...
  10. RESET Oil Life Monitor: Here is how to do it

    The user manual says this to reset the Oil Life Monitor: The Manual has left out a number of steps. Here is how to do it: It is under: Settings->Information->Oil Life->Reset Oil Life
  11. Sudden BLAST of air from the air conditioner

    This is NORMAL behavior. Reference: Page 125 of the User Manual
  12. Best Hybrid MPG Air Conditioning Settings

    Set the temperature to what you would do in your home and adjust the fan speed to the minimum you need for comfort. Also have it on recirculate. The AC will cycle on and off just like the AC in your home. When the inside temperature is above the set temperature it will turn on and when below...
  13. 2022 Hybrid - First time topping off coolant but different color?

    Actually in the OPs Maverick the GREEN looks exactly correct and the Yellow looks off. The Video you posted shows that the supposed Yellow looks like the Lime Green in the OPs Maverick. Even the video says that Yellow looks Lime Green. See Here where he mentions Lime Green:
  14. Better hybrid performance in really hot weather-

    Running the AC takes energy. In an ICE only vehicle that comes from the gas engine turning the compressor. In the Ford Maverick Hybrid that comes from the HV Battery. In this case the energy in the HV battery is finite and when it gets too low the ICE engine runs to recharge the HV battery...
  15. Better hybrid performance in really hot weather-

    Huh !!! Not sure what you mean by "run max AC on lowest temperature setting, max fan setting" as that seems to imply you are running that setting constantly which will greatly impact MPGs in the worst way. For me this works: When entering a Hot Vehicle and driving I hit the "MAX AC Button"...
  16. Any Hybrid maverick has this ungodly noise issue?

    If I am on MAX AC then I here it somewhat. I am only on MAX AC when I get into a hot Maverick but switch to normal AC when I pull out and in that mode I do not hear the AC.
  17. Any Hybrid maverick has this ungodly noise issue?

    Totally normal. That noise is from the Electric AC compressor. If you have the temp setting at maximum it can be noisy. With the hood closed and the windows up I really don't notice it even with the radio off.
  18. Anyone ever partially pay with a credit card? Enjoy a 2% cash rebate?

    I put $3,000 down for my MY22 Maverick and $5,000 down on my MY23 Maverick using the FordPass Visa Card at AutoNation Ford Frisco. I did not earn cash rebates but earned FordPass Points that I redeemed on "Ford Accessories/Parts". On my MY22 purchase I earned 42,000 (MY22 Purchase (Ford) +...
