Ordered the anti theft tailgate lock as part of the manufacturer build. The lock is there but keys are nowhere to be found. The dealer says they will need to break the existing lock and install a new one with keys since the keys are unique to each lock. That will work but I am wondering if...

Can someone tell me if the Ford drop in bed liner has cutouts marked for all the interior bed configurations? I know it has cutouts for the cubbies, 12v connectors, tie downs, side rails, etc, but the bed has many other pre-drilled holes for drainage, adding additional tie downs, and whatever...

Posting for general information. This is from the Ford Authority website. A $1,500 discount that can be applied through January 2, 2024 and you don’t have to be a member. Seems if it was true there would be much more promotion. Can’t find it on the Ford site. Anyone else heard of this...

The more I read about the battery monitoring system (BMS) the more I learn and the more confused I get. One trend becoming more apparent is that a BMS equipped vehicle being driven infrequently (2-5 days a week for short distances) should be prepared to make regular use of a battery tender or...

It seems the Battery System Management (BSM) is one of the biggest frustrations with the EcoBoost engine. It can cause issues with the battery holding a charge, interior lights not coming on, disabling start/stop functions, not starting, etc. There are many informative posts on this forum about...

Does the XL come with a keyed lock on the tailgate? The options on the website say a tailgate lock is available but that locks the tailgate to the bed. Can’t find a definitive answer the forum or on Ford.com.

Does the factory installed drop in and spray in bed liner require modifications to install a tonneau cover? I recently did this on a Ford Ranger and had to cut out six holes in the bed liner where the tonneau cover clamps connected to the bed rails. I’m guessing this isn’t necessary on the spray...

Other than the lack of power mirror controls and color choices, are there any big differences between the XL and XLT interiors? I have read where some owners have noticed a difference in the quality of the seats but nothing definitive. A predominantly black interior comes as a standard option on...

Are there any tracking options for an order prior to Ford issuing a VIN? I have a confirmed order # and completion of the vendor COVP but don’t expect a VIN for months. Is there a way to track the order status in that interim period or do you just have to wait for Ford to issue a letter? Also, I...

Just spoke with the sales manager at a local Ford dealer and was told dealerships should have received their 2024 Maverick allocations last week. He said Ford is trying to do a better job of communicating with dealerships to avoid the ordering issues of the last two years. This dealership is...

Almost hate to post this, but a neighbor of mine said the Ford dealership service department told her they are not expected to have the parts for the hybrid recall repair until December. They also told her to park her vehicle outside. I have a Mav hybrid on this recall so I contacted them...

I had a rattle in the dashboard that seemed to be coming from around the driver side vent that is close to the windshield. It was intermittent but it could get pretty bad. Took it to the dealer and they were able to drive and hear it. They told me Ford had issued a bulletin for this and it was...

Just received this message in the FordPass app and wondering if anyone else has experienced it? According to the date, the message was issued while my Ford dealer was doing the safety bulletin repair for the battery cable. Dealer is closed but I will contact them tomorrow but in the meantime I...

Both the Hybrid and EB are good choices for many reasons. It’s clear that gas mileage is a major factor in purchasing the Hybrid. I would be interested to hear the main reasons buyers chose the EB instead of the Hybrid.

Has anyone had success in the past with ordering a Maverick online from Ford.com when the order banks were open? Or is ordering through a dealer the only option?

I have a USB with about 1,200 songs on it. I plug it in and select shuffle and everything works fine. In this case let's say I play 25 songs. I unplug it and then plug it in a few days later, hit shuffle, and then it plays those same 25 songs in the same exact order until I can get to other...
