  1. Post recall annoyance (24C01)

    Had both 24C01 and 23C41 recalls done at the same time. Now, when you unbuckle the seat belt when the vehicle is on, you lose the ability to use the instrument cluster menus until you either open the door and/or re-buckle your seatbelt. So let's say you just parked and wanted to check your...
  2. P2C22 Heat Exchanger failure @15k miles

    Check engine light came on, read the codes and came back with P2C22. Light subsequently turned off before I was able to get into the dealer. Finally dropped it off and they confirmed the stored code and replaced the heat exchanger. There is a service bulletin on it...
  3. Heated steering wheel timeout and temperature

    Can someone with ForScan and the heated steering wheel let me know if you have access to these values? If so, have you had any success modifying them? My heated steering wheel times out after like 10min, despite the light being on. It would be nice to know if it could be changed.
  4. 10,000 Mile 2023 XLT Hybrid Review

    First some stats: ~502 hours in the "on" position equals an average MPH of ~20, which is probably correct given all of the city driving...unfortunately. Truck calculated MPG - 46.9 (adjusted AFE bias at ~3k miles) Hand calculated MPG - 45.6 Unscheduled maintenance - 0 Scheduled maintenance -...
  5. Budget oil change PSA: NAPA 0W-20 full synthetic oil for hybrid

    Just a heads up for fellow hybrid (and Ecoboost) owners looking to save a bit on oil. The NAPA-branded full synthetic motor oil meets all requirements for our engines and is currently on sale for $4.49/qt. FYI, it is made by Valvoline.
  6. Help needed - Lariat door handle ambient light

    Can one of our lariat members take some pictures of their interior door handle that show the ambient light? I'm trying to replicate it with a DIY solution and I'd like to see what it looks like. Thanks!
  7. XLT hybrid audio upgrade

    Pretty much done with the audio upgrade, but I will update this thread with any new changes. There are already lot's of great threads and videos that show the step-by-step, of wiring etc, so I didn't document that. However, I'd be happy to answer questions regarding wiring things up. I used...
  8. Anyone have access to the Factory Service Manual FSM?

    Does anyone happen to have access to the factory service manual? If so, could you look up something for me? Thanks!
  9. DIY - Adding ambient light(s) to 2023 Maverick XL/XLT for <$10

    Instead of ordering the factory part, I decided to just make my own ambient/console light. Remove the lid (clips circled in green, other clips are hidden towards the back) and unplug the harness (red circle) that is used to illuminate the USB ports. (picture credited to @Executech) You'll tap...
  10. 2023 XL/XLT PSA - No ambient lighting

    I haven't seen this posted, but compared to the 2022, my 2023 does not have the bulb for the center console or the icon in the screen for ambient lighting. I was wondering why it was so dark near the phone area and now I know why. Can anyone with the light take a picture of your layout? I'd...
  11. DIY Qi certified wireless charger for ~$5

    I just picked up one of these on clearance at Best Buy to see if it would work underneath the orange silicone cover and it does! When the silicone is re-installed, you can't even tell it's in there. No drilling or need to remove panels. It fits fine, installed it in the driveway. Includes a...
  12. Need more legroom - modify seat or pedals?

    I am finding that there is plenty of legroom for my left leg, especially beyond the dead pedal, but I'm finding that my right leg is getting fatigued and sore on longer commutes - the transition from gas to brake is giving me shin splints in city traffic. Lol. There seems to be almost an excess...
  13. Kikito roll-up tonneau - DO NOT BUY

    Just like the title says. The locking mechanism is made of cheap Chinese garbage pot metal. No way this would survive cold weather or any length of time. I'm pretty sure the TipTop one is exactly the same, so I won't be getting that. Yes, I know it was cheap, but I was hoping that it would at...
  14. Ford and dealer refusing to help with private offer, do I still buy at MSRP or let it go?

    My 2023 hybrid has been sitting at the dealership for over a week. I never received my private offer from my original 2021 order, despite (according to the dealer) everything "matching up." While they could file an exemption for the $2750, they are not going to. I've tried reaching out to Ford...
