Automotive headlamps are governed by FMVSS No. 108, which was amended to allow Adaptive Driver Beam (ADB) headlamps:

Ideally, I'd like to see rivnuts and larger bolts used. I know some people dislike rivnuts but given the way the engine subframe is designed, its nearly impossible to access the top of the subframe.
I put a Rival skid plate on my hybrid for greater protection from road debris. The factory plastic undertray provides almost no impact protection.
The Rival skid plate is made really well. I haven't changed the oil with it installed yet, so I can't comment on that.
I'm happy with my purchase (y)
I have this exact issue on my 2023 XLT hybrid. Anytime the camera faces the sun or headlights, I get the error messages. Sometimes it goes away but comes back multiple times.
I just gotta find time to take it to the dealer.
@AlexKMaverick I purchased an AirLift airbag kit from Amazon for my XLT hybrid. I bought it in preparation to move across the country while towing a uHaul 5x8 enclosed trailer.
But I ran out of time to install the airbags before the big move, so I didn't actually use them. But I have used the...
My '23 XLT hybrid does this too; maybe 1-2 times a week? The sound through the speakers kinda fades out and then a static pop is heard. I think it's the AMU restarting, trying to recover from a fault. I've updated the radio software but it still does it.
The radio sometimes forgets the USB...
@JimParker256 I can completely empathize with you. Once a vehicle breaks your trust like that, it's really difficult to trust it again.
I've got just over 21k miles on my '23 hybrid. I haven't had any major issues but did suffer from the seemingly too common "deep sleep" issues caused by the...
... I have an Access LOMAX trifold tonneau cover. The panel closest to the rear window doesn't fold up. But my main concern is that the tonneau cover would hit the sport bar rails.
Can someone who has a Keko sport bar do me a huge favor and measure the distance between the inside of the rails? TIA!
I just got my Maverick back after it was in the body shop getting hail damage repaired and I started getting both these warning messages:
I've cleaned the windshield 3 times but the warning messages still pop up after a few minutes of driving, usually when the truck is facing direct sun or...
This happened to me a lot. I'd turn the ignition off and with the keys in my hand, open the door. The truck would honk twice and I would jump lol.
I figured out that I was hitting the lock button on the key fob when I was opening the door which was causing the truck to honk the horn.
I turned...
"During the course of its investigation, the NHTSA discovered that select 2021-2024 Ford Bronco Sport and 2022-2023 Ford Maverick models equipped with the 12V enhanced flooded battery (EFB) were found to have experienced, on some occasions, an abrupt failure while owners were driving them. This...
It's a home made mount. Basically I used a camera mount for a tripod and attached it to the top of the cubby opening.

I pulled the top cubby off, removed the screen and the side cubby. Then I drilled a hole in the top of the side cubby and used a large...
That's actually a pretty nifty design. I like how it's made out of aluminum. According to the install instructions, it clamps to the lip of the cubby and you can position it anywhere on the lip.
I've had ProClip, Panavise, Ram and a few other mounts in various vehicles over the years. The...
I owned a 2015 Ford Transit Connect. It was the LWB cargo version with the 2.5L. I thought it was a great vehicle; just the right size with lots of utility. It drove like a tall Focus (which is really was).
I always wondered why Ford never made a hybrid Transit Connect. I'd buy one.
My hybrid's ICE is loud on cold startup but quiets down in about 15 seconds when the idle drops. But that's been the case with every other ICE car I've ever owned. The Atkinson cycle engine sounds like a lawn mower at times, which I find funny.
The A/C condenser fan is loud. The first time I...
Yeah, basically the entire driver's side of the truck and the roof looks like the hood. It even broke the tail light on the driver's side.
The body shop wants to replace the tonneau cover but it only has one tiny ding that's barely visible. They quoted $1200 for the replacement cost but I don't...
Haha. I'll let insurance pay for it since I've been with the same carrier for 22 years. They can use some of the thousands of dollars I've paid to them over the years to repair it.
But, eventually, I'd like to wrap the cab in gloss black vinyl.
