  1. More electrical Gremlins at work

    If my Maverick ever shows up, I think I'm going to tell the dealer to sell it!
  2. Faulty components in my 2022 hybrid

    I had a leased 2017 C-Max that I drove for 50K miles with Zero problems. Is the hybrid power train in the Maverick different from what Ford used in the C-Max? Why are there so many problems being reported?
  3. 10 months of waiting, 10 months of ownership, then... 😭

    I've seen several postings that many repair shops refuse to accept. any work insured by Allstate. It takes forever to get approval and even longer to get paid.
  4. My dealer claims there's a recall on my Maverick and he can't sell it

    Quite a few years ago, I went into a dealership, saw a car that I liked and wrote them a check. I told them my wife would pick the car up the next day.

    I had a CMax and it was very quiet.
  7. Keeping the auto start/stop off -- plug LED nightlight in the 110 outlet on back of console

    Don't know how its connected in the Maverick, but on my Ecosport there is a single wire connected to the positive terminal on the battery. Unplug it and the start/stop is disabled. Makes the system think your battery is low so start/'stop won't engage.

  9. Dead Hybrid again, AFTER wire harness replacement!

    Any thoughts on using a Battery Tender?
  10. Food for thought ( if you might be tired of waiting on a maverick )

    My daily driver is a leased Ecosport. I have a 5 x 8 aluminum trailer that I tow with it for light loads. I would much rather have the open bed of the Maverick but using the trailer isn't a problem for me. If I don't get my Maverick (Hybrid), I'm going to buy out the lease and save $22K.
  11. Dead Hybrid again, AFTER wire harness replacement!

    NOCO and GOOLOO jump starters are both rated very high; not cheap, but you get what you pay for.
  12. Costco Gas? Real Savings?

    I use a BP credit card, 15 cts. off per gallon. there's a lot more BP stations than Sam's or Costco's. No annual fee and I think for the first 90 days you ger 30 cts. off per gallon. Of course, if there aren't any BP stations, in your area, many other companies offer a similar deals.
  13. HOT PEPPER RED Maverick Photos Thread

    Would have rather had the Rapid Red but since it's not available on the '23s I went with the HPR. Probably won't make any difference since I probably won't get my Hybrid.
  14. Changing Oil Filter and Oil without Removing Skidplate

    The filter for my Explorer ST is on top; It's a replaceable element not screw on type.
