Never had an issue in the cold. I live in NC. Ended up getting rid of it when the second dealer (who was way better than the first) couldn’t figure it out after a week and a half. Appreciated the effort and just sold it to them and bought a used car (not an Ford) off his lot. Super annoyed that...

Happened again. SHIFT SYS FAULT. Started up after a few and I happened to be down the road from the local ford dealership where I bought it. They said “tow in” policy is that they aren’t seen for 1-1.5 weeks! Luckily it started again so I could drive out. Made an appoint for tomorrow with a Ford...

Update. All has been good for me so far after 23E09 update from a system fault perspective. The mileage is better than my initial concern though it’s still off. Basically, driving around town in normal drive mode I used to get worst 39. Now it’s 35. Where I used to be able to easily and...

Well. It’s back and so far the breaking is definitely better and no more giant error messages. However, I had consistently gotten about 39mpg driving around town. I’m now down to 29mpg after the recall update. For the record, the only time I’ve come close to that low of mileage was highway...

So…. Car is back in my driveway. They said the 23E09 recall update should fix the shift system malfunction. Said that should also fix my braking issue. The call from the service guy was comical after the fact but at the time was real irritating. So, I already had a planned appointment next week...

Just crossed the 10k mile mark and had this same SHIFT SYS FAULT happen. Blinking drive indicator on the dial and would turn on the parking break if I tried to shift from park. Then the car would go haywire with warnings and ultimately the SHIFT SYS FAULT would come on. Luckily was in my...

Well. With no change in MY build then it means shorter delays between order and delivery. Deep sigh…. Still waiting on my order date June 14th, 2021 XLT hybrid… FoMoCo, are you really still out there??? I feel like you’re just a dead end customer service line these days. BTW, nice people on...

Sounds closer to production than mine - ordered hybrid XLT Lux on June 15, 2021 (BTW, happy 1 year anniversary). I got a VIN and initially scheduled for June 27th… wait, Aug 3… wait Aug 15… uh. Now Ford CRC tells me they’re still waiting on a part for the heated steering wheel - which is...

My bet is PHEV=thunder for both Mav and Ranger. Li+ prices have gone way up so less Li+ per vehicle minimizes risks of a money maker going into the red due to commodity prices - like the MME. Also, both of those trucks have had test mules or rumors floating around that could support PHEVs for...

One last thing. I thought this motor trend article on the Maverick electrical set up was interesting as it relates to potential new Maverick versions. https://www.motortrend.com/news/2022-ford-maverick-hybrid-motor-technology/amp/

BTW. Congratulate me as two days ago was the one year anniversary of my order! 😂

Any idea on what the ‘Fuel Drain’ thing beneath the rear bumper is? Looks kind of like a quick release valve? Someone else here likely knows better… Looks like it’s off, what ever it is. Also, couldn’t see the stickers well on the black box thing with the hoses. Be easier to tell what it was if...

Agree with the already stated fact that using a different test parameter (under ‘ideal world’ conditions) and having the Mav not perform the same (in real life) under a different parameter is kinda dumb. That said, they don’t even seem to fully understand the drivetrain of the vehicle. It’s not...

Had the same.

A sales manager at my local Ford dealership (Crossroads Ford Apex, NC) called yesterday and said that Ford was allowing them to drop the spray in bed liner off luxury packages while keeping all the other options. She said otherwise, the truck was ready to be built (June 14th order). She said I...

Sorry, I don’t see what’s new here. Of course they are maximizing production on their biggest name and most profitable vehicles. That said, there are lots of shortages and chips are only one of them (spray in bed liner anyone?). I agree with the sentiments about a shift from high volume-low...

When I called my dealer to ask about moving up my priority code (was a 19 back in June 14th) I was told they had moved it to a 10 already but that it looked like Ford had moved it to a 2 due to the wait. The Ford marketing lady whom I also called (who was super nice if not overly positive) said...

June 14. Alto blue XLT change to Lariat in Dec.

You, me, and a bunch of others…

So I got my email confirmation on my Hybrid XLT +Lux package back in early June. No further news from Ford and had a free moment so dropped by the Ford dealership. They got my salesperson who said ‘No idea when coming in but could be any day you hear.’ Called Ford CRC who said it was ‘in...
