A problem with back seat showed up the other night. When my passengers got in to the back seat during daytime they had no problem finding and attaching the seat belts. When we returned it was dark and neither of the two passengers could locate and/or attach their seat belts without a flashlight.
I have 2022 Lariat with Adaptive Cruise Control. In the last few days the ACC feature that controls the distance from the vehicle in front has changed to make it much longer than the previous distance maintained. I cannot find how to adjust the distance. Can anyone tell me where to change...
To be clear I want to flush (all) the Brakes thru the ABS System.
Looking into this further I apparently need to be in ForScan's "ABS function / bleed" mode and select "Replace brake hose" and press OK. This will then allow me to select the wheel (RR,LR, RF or LF) I want to bleed thru the...
Thank you Allen, I tried your steps - which appear to be very similar the steps previously used - and again no success. My vehicle appears to be one of those that does not respond to this procedure.
I have a 2022 Eco Lariat with an electric parking brake (EPB). Ford requires(?) that the brake fluid be flushed at 3 years so this may apply to anyone with a 2022. I have tried, unsuccessfully, to use the Brake Maintenance Mode procedure (Hitting the Start Button, Brake, Gas, etc.) to deactivate...
I have a 2022 Eco Lariat with an electric parking brake (EPB). Ford requires(?) that the brake fluid be flushed at 3 years so this may apply to anyone with a 2022. I have tried, unsuccessfully, to use the Brake Maintenance Mode procedure (above) to deactivate the system multiple times. On...
In some states the vehicle maintains the 'Lemon' designation or some similar designation on the title. Check with your state. Naturally this type of tile designation affects the future resale value and should be revealed to prospective buyer.
I have a related question. When using the automatic cruise control feature where the distance of the vehicle ahead is automatically monitored and controlled, when the vehicle ahead slows down significantly and the Maverick automatically hits the brakes are the brake lights illuminated as well...
Questions regarding making oil changes easier:
I have 22 ECO and have changed the oil previously by removing the lower shield. I find it more difficult than necessary and easy to loose or strip a screw holding the shield. Has anyone tried to:
1. Use a Hose connection like this to make...
I believe the real reason that brake fluid in modern vehicles needs to be changed every x years is because we have anti lock braking systems in modern cars. These system s are complex and expensive to repair if the fluid is allowed to become corrupted. Changing the fluid maintains the quality...
My 2022 Eco started making a rattling noise when the weather got cold (under 10 degrees F). I traced the problem to 2 metal prongs that are attached to the exhaust pipe and touch a metal support brace as it exits the engine and curves under the truck. The engine runs slightly more roughly when...
My 2022 Maverick Eco Boost with less than 13k miles developed a significant rattle when the weather turned cold this month. It was intermittent and occurred only when:
1. I first started it up
2. I first accelerated from a stop
3. As the transmission downshifted while slowing down. This...
It was the mid 70’s and I was driving an old Pontiac Tempest sedan on Rt 6 in the Pennsylvania mountains on my way to work very early in the morning. It was raining and around 32-33 degrees as I started up a mountain at about 50-60 mph. As I crested the hill and began to descend, I realized that...
Related Question: My 22 Lariat has Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) which allows the vehicle to follow at given distance. Among other things it automatically slows as traffic ahead slows down. My question is "do the brake lights come on as the ACC system uses the brakes to remain at the correct...
I just received my updated Insurance quote for the next 6 months and found the premium was raised ~33%. My agent told me that the primary reason was that the Maverick's Comprehensive Rating Group Code went up 4 levels from 014 to 018. Has anyone else experienced a significant increase in...
