Seems like it should last longer that that. Anyone else have this?

I had a bumper sticker fall off my bumper, and am now wondering if the bumper is a non-stick surface. Anyone?

The story seems to be paywalled so far, but the gist of it is that dealerships have faked the repair, and done shoddy work. Ford is coming after them. This is kinda why I didn’t have this recall fixed. My service guy scoffed when I told him my concerns. Now who’s scoffing?

My truck quit doing the creep forward when stopped in drive. I have to hit the “gas” pedal to get it going. Anyone else seeing this?

After not driving it for 8 days, my Maverick (through FordPass) is telling me repeatedly that it is going into Deep Sleep Mode. It starts and runs fine, with no warnings on the screens. I‘ve only driven short distances since I started driving it again, so it hasn’t had much charging time, but...

I have the Hybrid XL PovEd (Poverty Edition), and had driven an ‘02 Ranger for 20 years prior. The Ranger was XLT, but didn’t have power windows or cruise control, so I’ve been driving like a Spartan for a long time. It was a nice truck and I would have kept driving it had the absurd value that...

I read an interesting article comparing various vehicles, and they throw in a hybrid Mav on the final chart, where it compares favorably to a Corolla over the full life cycle. It’s mostly targeting full size EV trucks, especially the Hummer EV. A snippet: “A bigger battery in turn adds weight...

Curious about statements that the Mav has “thin paint,” I started reading about automotive paint in general, and found a few things I thought might interest some of you. Ford had a new paint facility completed in Hermosillo in Aug/Sept. of 2021...

Anyone know if the current Escape Hybrid battery is the same as the one in the Mav?

Yes, I checked the manual and searched for prior threads. I’ve looked through the infotainment screens and the FordPass app. Can’t find the TPMS display. Does the XL have it? Does the idiot light also signal over pressure? I’m wondering if the dealership checked/set the pressures correctly.

On an XL, what is the sliding lever on the back of the ww controller? Manual unclear.

Better than expected. A tribute to my wife, who’s part Hawaiian.

I thought so… Anyway, here’s mine. Dealer sucks, $2k ADM, lies and more lies plus extortion. But still worth it, considering the market. Ordered Aug. 21.

Have you bought a Maverick from Harrold Ford at MSRP? I read a Google review from yesterday where a Bronco buyer was faced with a $15K markup. It seems like things got ugly and he was kicked out of the store. Mine will be delivered there in a week or two, so I’m a bit discouraged about the...

https://techcrunch.com/2022/01/09/feature-bloat-cars-chip-shortage/ talks about excessive doodads, chip shortage, reliability, etc. I’m not a luddite, retired from an IT career, but I still think simpler is better when it comes to autos. Everything in my 20-year old Ranger still works, because...
