  1. Car died at intersection - "parking brake fault"

    Honestly I'm not even sure this is limited to Ford, but I've never seen this amount of recalls on any other vehicles I've owned. One of the biggest issues is that for every single recall I need to take time out of my schedule to bring the car in. There is no remote software push which is...
  2. Car died at intersection - "parking brake fault"

    Yeah I'm not sure how any of that works. My main gripe was that the Ford service was going to take 60 - 90 minutes but the cop was able to get a truck there in 5 minutes that gladly charged me $135. There were trucks available in the area, just not trucks available to the service I was...
  3. Car died at intersection - "parking brake fault"

    That was kind of my thought process too, the cost isn't really the issue so much as the stuff failing at the worst possible time. If this had happened in my driveway that would be one thing, but I was about 50 miles from home in another state. Personally I'm just going to reduce as many...

    I had seen the recall on the app last year but the status was "remedy not yet available" (on either that recall or a different one) so I was waiting on that, guess I lost track. But reading the recall notice it does sound like a very possible culprit. I do like how the remedy for the battery...

  6. Car died at intersection - "parking brake fault"

    I stopped the car at the light, the car shut off from the auto start / stop. Pressed the gas, then got a message about a parking brake fault and nothing worked. No power to anything, couldn't get it into neutral, nothing. So I used the Ford app and requested roadside assistance. I indicated...
  7. Paddle Shifters install on Maverick XL -- DIY install instructions, photos & video

    Ok, so I've sifted through this thread, amazing guide so THANK YOU to all who have contributed. I see that you essentially switch to "manual mode" just by using the paddles, which is great. My only question - How do you switch back to auto mode?
  8. For those who have added paddle shifters, how do they work?

    I've read the guide on this forum for installing the steering wheel (awesome guide btw) but I'm confused on how they work. On other cars I've owned, there was a "manual mode" button or setting on the gear selector that would allow you to use the optional manual mode, but since our little rotary...
