  1. Maverick Hybrid Engine Class Action Lawsuit DISMISSED

    Not necessarily. Most lawyers who handle class action lawsuits take cases on a contingent fee basis. In fact, I've never seen one at an hourly rate.
  2. Maverick Hybrid Engine Class Action Lawsuit DISMISSED

    That's not what the complaint was though. Civil lawsuits claiming damages (such as class action suits) have to show that the 'class' of people were damaged in some way by whatever occurred and were entitled to compensation. The judge found that 1) Ford had already taken steps to fix the issue in...
  3. ActiveX Seats -- How to clean / care / maintain in the Maverick

    Yes. My car has 84k miles on it, and they look like they did when I bought it.
  4. ActiveX Seats -- How to clean / care / maintain in the Maverick

    My spouse and I both have fake leather seats, and we just wipe them off with baby wipes. ActiveX (Ford) and Softex (Toyota) aren't all that fragile. Just wipe them with a damp towel or baby wipes and move on.
  5. Android Auto with Coolwalk Beta on the Maverick - first look & impressions

    This is just what I want to see on my husband's Lariat - the multi-display screen. I'm going to point him toward this info. Thanks!
  6. Risk of Fire during Accidents with Hybrid?

    Indeed. Like 3 of them. Then they ended up being recalled, as vehicles do. Still not sure what the point is here.
  7. RIP buddy, it was a fun 5k miles

    I'm so glad that truck came through for you and likely saved your life. Please feel free to delay accepting the insurance company's first and second (and third) offers. Don't settle the medical part at all until you at least have a conversation with your healthcare people, and confirm that...
  8. Found the ambient high temperature limits of the hybrid's electric motor/battery

    Of course. But the implication of the original post is that the Maverick owner 'discovered' that his hybrid system stops working when it's hot in Phoenix - as if this is some new discovery.
  9. Found the ambient high temperature limits of the hybrid's electric motor/battery

    But did they have issues? Does no one drive previous generation hybrids in Phoenix?
  10. Found the ambient high temperature limits of the hybrid's electric motor/battery

    Hybrids don't work in Phoenix? I'm sorry, I just keep wondering why they're sold there. Wouldn't your heat - that's somehow worse than New Orleans, Miami, and other hot southern places - prohibit the sale of hybrids and electric vehicles?
  11. Found the ambient high temperature limits of the hybrid's electric motor/battery

    So...somehow Ford's Maverick hybrid system is different from the Escape's, Prius's, Camry's, Rav 4's, etc. hybrid systems over the last 15-20 years? I mean, this is a well-known transmission in vehicles all over the world. Why would Ford build something untested for the Maverick?
  12. I test drove 4 vehicles yesterday...

    We bought a Maverick for the gas mileage and our love of hybrids. If you don't care about those things, buy what you enjoyed test driving. The rest is honestly just details. In spite of the motor junkie conspiracists, modern vehicles in this country have to meet a lot of safety and quality...
  13. Not Boomer Friendly

    I'm 68. My spouse is 74. I haven't seen a CD in probably 15 years. But if you have an older desktop computer, you can probably buy a flash drive, plug it in the USB port, insert your CD, and copy all of your songs over to the flash drive.
  14. KEYLESS ENTRY KEYPAD master code?

    I definitely don't want to accidentally change our transmitters out of administrator mode.
  15. KEYLESS ENTRY KEYPAD master code?

    Per owner's manual, you should be able to contact your dealer to get it. 'Should' being the operative word. But I'll bet it's stuck in some semi-secret location in the truck just like the gas tank cover by-pass lever is.
  16. KEYLESS ENTRY KEYPAD master code?

    I'm pretty interested in checking that out. Trying to translate the procedure using transmitters instead of keys.
  17. Mavericks aka unicorns in the wild.

    We live in a 4 block duplex housing development neighborhood in eastern NC, and there are 3 of them here (including my husband's). Last week, we were at a minor league baseball game 30 miles away, and there was another Maverick parked several spaces from us. While we were sort of hanging out...
