The Ford Maverick Owner's Manual specifies that you should not manually force or move the windshield wiper arms because doing so can damage the wiper motor, strip the internal gears, or ruin the linkage. Why You Can't Move Them By Hand: Below-Hood Design: The Maverick's wipers rest tucked...

You should have made the dealership paying for a printed manual as a condition of closing the deal. Anything and everything is negotiable.

There isn't any way, shape, or form that that pickup camper only weighs 500 lbs. Plus you have to figure in everything you would put into the camper including water, a full propane tank, bedding, clothes, food, etc., etc. The Maverick is a small car-based pickup-looking vehicle. That camper...

Seems to me if you had gotten full coverage insurance and paid just a few dollars more annually for a very low comprehensive deductible of only $100 you could have filed it under comprehensive and had it replaced at the dealership with new part paid by insurance since they said it had been...

The original poster has an ancient Samsung S8. Long past any update support.

I have a Galaxy A54. The A56 is a larger phone than the A54 which is a perfect size. While the A54 does most of what I need I will most likely replace it with a Galaxy S25 like I got for my wife. It has much brighter screen, a dedicated OPTICAL zoom, and much better battery life and is similar...

A Galaxy 8 phone is an incredibly out-of-date, obsolete, smartphone. Suggest you look for something like a Galaxy A56. It is relatively inexensive and light years ahead in technology.

You need to reach up and simply unscrew the antenna before going throught the car wash.

If you are still under the 36 month/36,000 mile warranty that includes your battery. You shouldn't pay for anything and insist on the H4 Motorcraft AGM battery.

Congress is set to mandate that automakers include AM radio in all new passenger vehicles, including EV only, and to address interference issues. They have determined it is a matter of public safety as many rural areas are beyond the range of FM transmitters. That bill should pass this...

Use Mother's Back to Black. It is exactly what that needs. Use it on the tonneau cover and the side plastic and the bumper. Anything plastic that is black.

I like Dave Ramsey and we followed the "baby steps' to become totally debt free and are, but in this day and age of computerized cars, I disagree with his stand on extended warranties. One module failure could easily cost more than the cost of an extended warranty and that is just for one...

In our opinion, the best ones are the clear ones, and they cost next to nothing (actually they are free and come with the purchase of the vehicle).

Perhaps you missed the line in the owner's manual that says if you use the Maverick for a lot of short local stop and go trips that is a factor in considering it in severe use versus longer drives at lower relatively steady RPMs. It doesn't hurt to just watch the odometer and plan on an oil...

No need to change oil every six months. Just do it every 5,000 miles on the odometer, but no longer than once a year. Ignore the dash display, go with the owner's manual recommended intervals. Given you will be doing a lot of short trips, it would fall under the "severe use" intervals, thus the...

I assume your Clark County numbers include all of the towns near Lake Mead in Clark County (Overton, etc.) and the Mesquite, Nevada. There is also the Scenic and Littlefield, Arizona areas as well as most of southern Washington County Utah.

This info below was taken from a number of sites. Your mileage may vary but we want to keep our Maverick for a good long time and part of that is taking care of the engine internals. Ford recommends a 5,000-mile oil change interval in high-temperature areas because extreme heat shifts your...

We don't live in "Mojave". We are in the Mojave Desert region of this nation which extends from California through Nevada, part of Arizona, and into southwestern Utah. It's a very large desert area. Many large cities (such as Las Vegas) are in the Mojave Desert.

To quote the Owners Manual: "Driving Conditions and Maintenance Severe Conditions: Ford recommends shortening the interval to every 5,000 miles if you frequently tow, haul heavy loads, idle extensively, drive in dusty areas, or make frequent short trips in extreme cold or heat." We live in the...

You read correctly: "Driving Conditions and Maintenance Severe Conditions: Ford recommends shortening the interval to every 5,000 miles if you frequently tow, haul heavy loads, idle extensively, drive in dusty areas, or make frequent short trips in extreme cold or heat." Just do an oil change...
