The order in which you placed an order doesn't really mean anything. I ordered my 2022 in January of 2022 just before the order banks closed and I had it in just over 4 months. Even my dealer couldn't believe it since I ordered an XL and he had other Ecoboost orders that had been waiting much...

Tirerack and Discount Tires Direct both say that they haven't found any 16" wheels that will fit over the Maverick brake rotors. It's the rear larger diameter solid rotors that are the issue. Many people assume that the Maverick shares the same brake parts with the Bronco Sport which is able to...

No, the Ford PTU (Part that sends power to the rear wheels) is not designed to handle full time engagement, it's barely robust enough to handle part time engagement.

Unless it's completely sealed it's going to probably accelerate any rust issues. Moisture WILL get in and then sit in there. If you live in an area that uses salt for winter weather it will be exponentially worse.

This is a pretty weak example, especially the static example of radio operation. How you operate the radio doesn't change based on temperature, humidity, environment, driving habits, etc so sure, RTFM to find out how your radio operates. How your oil performs with all of the variables I...

I have to be honest that in 27 years of working on my own vehicles and as an engineer I only know the term heat soak as one thing and it has more to do with degraded engine performance while operating rather than some kind of maintenance procedure so maybe you can elaborate. My first Focust ST...

35% of total production numbers, he's only saying that 56% of the orders they've received have been for a hybrid, there's a difference.

It is a problem on any vehicle that only has direct injection but especially bad on turbocharged direct injected engines due to much higher cylinder pressures and more blow by. There is a certain member here who claims that ecoboost valve cleaning is "bogus" and that he drove his F150 ecoboost...

They're not, I just checked to see what carvana would give me for my 22 XL Ecoboost with 14k miles...... $30,079

The median home listing there is 1.3 million. If residents aren't buying an EV and taking advantage of home charging at 23 cents a kwh instead of paying $7.28 a gallon of gas then I don't know what to say. An EV even at a relatively expensive 0.23 per kwh will save you $10k over 5 years. Add in...

Pretty sure the COVP hit is avoidable as long as they have an email etc from the ordering customer saying they want/need to abandon the order.

Unfortunately people bailing on their orders doesn't get anyone their truck faster. If a customer abandons their order the dealer still keeps it in place so they can sell it retail. What I'm saying is that the queue doesn't get smaller, it stays the same.......Ford should have required a non...

we've covered this so many times. The doors don't lock on their own. I have large hands, I wear 2XL gloves. The way the door lock mechanism (The actual lock lever, not the power lock switch) is designed is very very poorly executed. I noticed that while pulling the lever to open the door my...

The dealer is going to take a hit to their COVP delivery numbers so it's up to them if they want to sell it to your brother. You can ask. Also, keep in mind that some states wave tax for transfer of a vehicle to a family member so you may be able to purchase it and then sell/transfer to your...

Unfortunately for you the skid plate on your FX4 does not protect the charcoal evap canister. Ford really misleads by saying "skid plates" when it's just really a skid plate split into two pieces. It only fills the area directly below the engine/transmission.

I'm pretty sure the majority of the reason Ford has plants in Mexico in the first place is to avoid the exorbitant costs associated with UAW labor so it's doubtful there will be any issues.

More like the different front bumper used on the Tremor to improve approach angle does not allow use of the larger radiator that is equipped on 4k tow models. I'm sure to make it work would have required significant re-engineering making it not worth it from a production point of view. Has...

You cannot program it on the Maverick without Ford's official version of Forscan. On the Ford transit you can which is probably why you were able to do it on your Bronco since they are somewhat related but the Maverick cannot be done without a software license for the official Ford version of...

I just looked and they apparently haven't released 2024 x plan pricing. It's really dependent on trim but I think I saved a few hundred dollars on the MSRP of my 2022 XL. The real savings for me were doc fees. In Virginia dealer doc fees are $899, X plan capped those at $100.

Don't discount a transmission leak, I had a smell from something burning off and noticed a fluid leak when doing an oil change, it turns out my transmission start stop accumulator was spraying transmission fluid all over the place and some of it was burning off on the primary catalytic...
