I've had both front axles replaced now and after this last axle, the BCM recall was done (with errors) and I now have this click/ticking sound at low speeds while turning, and I can hear it with soft acceleration. @Ford Motor Company can you help me please?
I've removed my larger tires, and the...
I created another thread with a poll to try to get at least a little information and numbers on failures. Please go fill out the poll if you haven't done so already :-)
Trying to get some actual numbers of failed axles and with which setup. It's hard to get any type of accurate numbers by reading all the threads. If you've had an axle or two, or three, or four, fail on you, please fill out the pole.
I have already ordered a pair of axles for my FX4 that will be sent to them for their r&d. There are several other axles for the Maverick that will need to be sent to them as well. I can't afford to purchase every single axle made for the Maverick to send to them, so as people are willing to do...
Keep in mind that warranties run out, so these parts would be available to you in the future when the time comes where you would need to replace them on your own dime.
You would literally need to purchase everything that looks like it might be close to the same and do all the measurements from there. As far as cross referencing part numbers, these axles only fit the Maverick and nothing else.
OEM Axles at a cheaper price than you quoted: (These are for an FX4. May fit others, please order using your VIN, not these links)

This has been an issue for all Mavericks regardless of two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, hybrid or ecoboost. It really doesn't even matter if it's lifted or lowered, there are plenty with stock axles that have had theirs fail.
Update as of 7/15/2024
CVJ - I've decided to send CVJ a set of Hybrid Maverick Axles instead of the FX4/AWD axles. I need a VIN from a Hybrid owner that has had an axle fail already before I can do this. Long story, but it won't cost you anything.
Gator - Gator will be getting the AWD/FX4...
Sorry I haven't been around much. I've been sick :-(. Then after I recovered, my axel did lifted Maverick things, but thankfully it was replaced under warranty.
On a positive note, I'm the planning committee for MaverickFest 2024! I'll be bringing my Maverick, my teardrop trailer, and my Ford...
