  1. Maverick Steering Issues - Bad Sound

    Bringing this matter up before the MTC, while a good move unto itself (we all learn), should not be necessary. The suggestions made here (try this……try that…..could it be this?……..could it be that?) are all things that a servicing dealer should be asking. And they should not stop asking until...
  2. More invasive Ford patents

    Richard, Thank you for this. Yeah, and the sound comes from under the hood (the front!), while you’re backing up!
  3. Cool features our Mavs should have

    A little pivoting vent window on the A column, both sides. And the ability to allow fresh air to flow through, without a fan running. Even my ā€˜92 Toyota had that vent window, as part of a package, with a tach, gauges, and sliding rear window. Speaking of which, my Lariat has the sliding rear...
  4. Hybrid Mileage improvement with 100% ethanol-free gas

    Maybe I’ve missed it, but it seems that nobody has brought this up. But………. I leave my Mav for weeks (sometimes months) at a time. I just give the fuel a double dose of fuel stabilizer. Same stuff I use in my mower and my boat. Seems to work.
  5. Recall 26S10

    But they still haven’t ā€œsolvedā€ it. Fix coming in Q1 of 2025.
  6. power train problem

    Oooops! As Rosanna said ā€Never mind!ā€
  7. power train problem

    You have a hybrid. When the truck is on (ā€œreadyā€), do you feel the vibrations (while stationary) while the engine is NOT running? Trying to isolate a suspension issue from an engine issue.
  8. Hood prop too short

    Florsheims?
  9. 10,000 mile service done today

    Quick……….. Go out and buy a lottery ticket!
  10. Bedliner alternative questions

    Bed’s already painted. As long as the paint isn’t scratched, nor otherwise penetrated, put the drop-in right over it. You’re good to go.
  11. 2025 Eco Lariat has Goodyear tires

    You can say that again!
  12. New tires and wheels and now it pulls and steers bad

    In 2009 the Bride bought a Pontiac Vibe. Ten years and 80k miles later, we returned home after a summer away from the Vibe to find considerable dry rot on 3 of the tires. Put on new BFGs. Here’s the relevant point………. From the time the Vibe was new, it always pulled to the right. When new, took...
  13. Tire replacement time is approaching.

    Check the inflation. Can make quite a difference. I shan’t say more than that.
  14. Tire replacement time is approaching.

    My FWD ā€˜22 Mav Lariat has 32k miles on it. Maybe half the tread left on the original Michelins. The Bride thinks I’m a nut because I enjoy checking out tires at BJ’s, Walmart, etc. She hates the scent. I kinda like it. At 77, don’t know if I’ll outlive these tires. But, should I be so fortunate...
  15. Terrible gas mileage!

    As I’ve said before………. First game of the season I go 2 for 4. Doesn’t make me a .500 hitter. Or I go hitless. Doesn’t make me a .000 hitter. Look at the bigger picture.
  16. New and continual mid-pitch whining noise above 40 MPH

    Make sure the ā€œLā€ button isn’t depressed.
  17. Terrible gas mileage!

    No mention is made of inflation numbers. BIG influence on mileage!
  18. Post an AI generated image of your Maverick

    I like the flag on the radio antenna.
