I actually just ordered a friction sway style assembly so I'll let everyone know how it helps. When I load it to go camping I'll shift weight to the front of the axles as well- first camping trip is next weekend so I'll report back when everything is installed.
I appreciate the feedback...
Hey everyone,
Bought a 2019 KZ 160rbt to tow around. I typically steal my dad's f250 to tow with but when he needs it I liked the idea of having the Maverick as a fallback, hence getting something so small.
I've towed many trailers and boats with other vehicles but when I pulled this with the...
I'm really thinking this is my last Ford. Edited: because I was being dramatic........I want an F150 one day. But still pissed off!
Last month my Maverick's transmission failed on a highway in NJ. I called Ford Roadside and they advised that I was on a restricted roadway and to call an...
Update- I got my truck back! After completing the TSB it still would not move so they replaced the entire valve body with a new one and it's back in action. Going to look at this whole experience as a free transmission flush/ change.
For future victims and the eventual kids of 2045 wrenching on...
While everything indicated that it was attempting to go into P (again including the shift module failure warning and the spin shifter going between D and P and slamming into P while I slowed down) it is entirely possible that this was just a transmission failure. I'm not above being wrong about...
Whelp it's been 21 days and I'm still waiting, but I do have the Bulletin #- TSB 25-2567 (which I believe is the procedure seen in the attached pdf) to replace the Selectable One Way Clutch.
Just got off the phone with the dealer, they said Ford will offer me a $35 per day credit for a rental through Enterprise. Also I pushed a bit on what was going to be repaired and he said it's not a total rebuild, they are replacing parts as per a technical bulletin and that my issue is a known...
Update: Got a call from the Dealer- he said the issue was internal with the transmission and that I'd need a partial rebuild. Parts come next week but said it would be 2 or more weeks to complete.
My next question is- they are not offering me a loaner or rental because I didn't purchase their...
2023 Ford Maverick EB 4k Package- Following Message on Ford App Shift Module SERVICE SOON- Powertrain Malfunction/ Reduced Power
I was driving about an hour from home when my dash alerted Shift Module SERVICE SOON followed by a loud clicking sound and loss of driving ability. The electronic...
Just a follow up- I ordered a windshield stripper from Rain-X. Applied it and used a RainX spray to clean and polish. Looked great....for about a week and now it's back to square one.... Might have to call the dealership on this one.
I am continuously getting these terrible water marks on my windshield (reoccurring since I took it home). I have managed to get rid of them several times by painstakingly clay bar and hand polishing them but within a couple of weeks it comes back. Any tips to keep this from happening or...
Switching to a 4k Tow Package is pretty involved. The only way to logically do it is to trade yours in on a Maverick with 4k already installed.
Unless you enjoy removing and replacing entire sections of your drive train.

Grew up selling boats and boat trailers and this is a very common problem across the board. I've seen new boat trailers with issues and new trucks quite a bit. The first thing I would check is that it is indeed your truck and not the trailer. Grab a test light and hook it to a frame ground (I...
