  1. Tire plugs - Anyone tried those new rubber/plastic screw types?

    Picked up a drywall screw while driving from FL to NY yesterday. I've had decent results with the traditional push-through rubber threads but the coarse rat tail filing against steel threads has always bothered me and pushing the repair thread into the tire can be very difficult. Yes, I know...
  2. onX offer in my notifications

    While remote starting my Maverick this morning, I noticed an offer in my inbox... 1 year of onX Elite for free. I went ahead and signed up, process complete, service "activated". Load the app(s) and I'm faced with 7 day trials and am required to purchase memberships for the services that are...
  3. Another axle boot question

    did some searching, but I still need to ask. Before the recent update to the Ford app, I had a notification of recalls due and service bulletins applicable to my truck. Post recall service, the app updated. Gone are the notices of axle boot replacements. Does that mean they are no longer offered...
  4. Auto Start Stop observation and question

    the A.S.S. stopped working. No biggie though, it just meant i no longer needed to hit the button EVERY TIME. Trip coming up so I took it in for recalls including the battery which they replaced. Now it takes 0.25 seconds of being stopped to initiate A.S.S. So... The A.S.S. apparently has the...
  5. Thoughts on this idea that's been burning a hole in my brain.

    I've been considering using the bed light housings and adding emergency vehicle type wig-wag Amber lights that would be activated using the emergency blinker circuit. Bed light use preserved, adding LED COB lights to the housing. Having driven through the hills of Pennsylvania and the notorious...
  6. Camera lockup? Nah. Its the system itself.

    Heading to work and.... hmmm. The infotainment system froze like it does with the camera, but while the camera was not in use.
  7. Yet another Camera post - but Mine had a message while it was froze

    Yesterday I was driving and had my camera freeze again. But this time I also had a message in the upper left corner: "Indexing Nexus". A clue? I have never used a USB drive for music, which most info I found referred to. In fact, I've never installed a thumb drive in the vehicle.
  8. Forward camera... defroster included?

    I did not know the forward camera has its own defroster.
  9. Bumper plastic question - pop / push out dent imprint?

    So we got rear-ended tonight. Just enough impact to make an imprint in the bumper plastic of the vehicles license plate screw head. No other damage. Bumper is straight, no scratches, ect... So... Has anyone tried to use heat to restore the plastic? I do know some plastics have a memory of sorts...
  10. Android Auto question

    The other day my wife and I had some errands to run and took her Bronco Sport. My phone battery was down, so I plugged it in. Android Auto came up as expected and I noticed there was a Ford icon available that takes you to normal radio mode that isn't on the Maverick. I've updated my phone...
  11. Jeep owners...

    Just sayin'
  12. Bed wash-out - BEWARE!

    Just had to wash a bunch of dirt from the bed of the Maverick. Parked in the yard with a nice slope to rinse out the bed, put the tailgate down, and grabbed the hose. Got done and closed the tailgate... and watched several gallons of mud come out of the tailgate handle and Ford emblem. WHATEVER...
  13. License plate light... here's an idea... puddle lights

    I was outside this morning with the dog while the Maverick warmed up and I couldn't help but notice the license plate light that shines equally onto the ground. SO... Wouldn't it be neat if there was a projection light assembly that illuminated the plate and projected the Blue Oval or "Maverick"...
  14. XLT doors - OK... I'm just going to ask.

    I'm curious to know if the "hidden compartment" towards the rear of the door is intended for CC use? Not sure what else might fit in there and maybe I know what does...?
  15. Holy WHAT-THE-HECK? Loose tail lights (both sides)!

    Just finished a trip from Upstate NY to Florida and back. Kept hearing something being buffeted in the wind creating a clunking sound. No real way to trace it while driving. Kept checking the tonneau cover since it was where it seemed to be coming from. Got home after 3000 miles and noticed the...
  16. Android Auto through Bluetooth?

    I searched threads and did not find what I was looking for so I'll ask - Can the entertainment system in the Maverick play Android Auto using only Bluetooth? I ask because during a recent rental of a Chrysler Pacifica for company use I used the vehicles screen with Android Auto. During setup...
  17. Had it a week now!

    And posting a photo of the truck I'm falling in serious like with...
  18. Dashcam... can the accessory outlet be changed from always on?

    Just picked up my '22 XLT and got half way through installing the dashcam. "Cigarette" plug is always on. Can that be changed to work with the key? I installed a fuse jack on my Escape to solve this, but most of the fuses are always on or are the new double fuses (3 spades). Not sure how I'm...
