My 2023 Hybrid XLT has no real issues but this past first winter had to charge battery once to stop dome light not going on and Ford Pass ap from saying conserving battery. No failure to start ever. Winter do smaller trips.
BUT has THREE recalls Should I do them ????????
Recalls on 2023 XLT...
I don't want to start any big thing But Nu Finish is exactly made for old oxidized paint . Used it a long time ago on my Chevy blazer paint that was faded. It does a great job bringing back the shine. Can it protect too? I guess . Not sure what is in it exactly?
BUT I would use just a ceramic...
Didn't read through this thread. BUT if you can tell the difference in NORMAL driving you are magic. Maybe while towing but other wise I would bet BIG dollars no,.
Mandates will change over time . Not worried at all, If manufacturers cant sell them they wont be built. I cant wait till they go after the boating industry, That will be amusing,.
Most likely the SAME battery issue MANY have had. Charge battery connect charger to jump points under the hood. If you don't own a charger you should .
I carry a jump box . BUT you should see this problem coming if you notice the dome lights NOT coming on ahead of time before it wont start...
I THINK you have to PAINT a car on the cardboard. I saw that on some web page they were testing many makes of cars to see which worked best. Cardboard but had a car back side with taillights painted on cardboard. Then they ran at it and had cones setup to see if it did crash into it how far it...
I had to charge my 12 v once this past winter. Once done no issue of deep sleep after that. In winter i do more short trips . Eventully I will replace the OEM battery. By then I hope at least 3 years I hope they list AGM batteries for the Mav. Now you still get regular lead acid battery. I...
Inline_five posted a video clearly showing WHY you should change the hybrid trans fluid. Plain as day. THANKS I was unaware of the issue. You can ignore at your own risk. Its easy as pie to do. Now 10 or 20 K miles is early BUT it looks like OP was LOW so it turns out NOT a bad idea.
I chuckle...
Saw on National News last night 4-17 recall for BOTH Maverick and Bronco Sport. Low battery not detected loss of power. Thats what they said . So doesn't sound like hybrid issue as no hybrid Bronco's.
BUT that was TV news so who knows if correct at all.
sawon Natuional New last...
I had my first flat EVER 3 days ago. Been driving over 35 years. Mine was the left rear. I have the hybrid. So not worried being on none drive location. Yes i got the full size spare BUT full size isn't really full size. about a inch or 2 smaller diameter. By boat marina, ran over BIG plastic...
Upright bars. Need TWO of them per cross bar I ONLY installed ONE cross bar in pickup bed. 18 inch will clear cab BUT I recommend for lumber and cab cross bar make them 21 inch .

Then to attach the bar to the Elevate rails and cross bar you need the...
I use yakima roof bars and I made my own rear bar using the elevate RAILS only and Tnutz upright bars and amazon cross bar. If you want I could go into detail on how to do it. I transport longer kayaks into the 18 foot range which is similar if I wanted to transport long 20 foot wood 2 by 10...
That is breaking US code sticking out that far. Since you are rural maybe no issue with local law enforcement . Try that where I am at you will get ticked. Much safer to use roof rack cross bar on cab and one on back of bed like I do,. Yes it cost way more. Maybe for occasional use you can get...
My 2023 xlt hybrid does it too. BUT only if gas engine is running, If you put it into neutral goes away. Typically gas engine isn't running at stop light unless engine is cold. Hence many say at first stop light. Not sure if its a REAL problem or not,. I have 6200 miles Got in August 2023 .
