  1. My Maverick died in traffic...

    I cannot speak for others, but having owned hybrids before the Maverick hybrid, it shouldn't be an issue unless parked for long periods of time. I used to leave my Camry hybrid for a week or more during holidays, never had an issue. Of course it had a good Panasonic AGM battery, unlike the...
  2. Buy extended warranty?

    All modern vehicles kind of suck, I wouldn't get any of them without it.
  3. Buy extended warranty?

    With all the electrical crap in these modern vehicles, if something goes haywire you could be paying out big bucks real fast, far more than any warranty costs. It's a Ford, get the extended warranty, chances are you'll need it. 🤣
  4. Collision assist not working

    I've had more false positives, warnings when nothing was even close, than actual potential collision warnings. My eyeballs work far better than it, needless to say.
  5. Computer on 4 wheels

    Just like every car since the late 1980s, just more of them.
  6. Odd color interior

    Welcome to the Maverick, blue stuff is standard, even on black appearance package trucks. Just look at video reviews online, what you are describing is normal for an XL.
  7. Need reassurance that my Hybrid is not going to be a money pit

    At this point it sure looks like some early hybrids will end up being money pits. One things for sure, once the warranty is almost up, this troubled vehicle is gone.
  8. Turn entry lights off?

    Go into the driver information panel settings (steering wheel) and vehicle settings. There is one for disabling the time out feature for the outside lights. If set to off the headlights and tail lights will not turn on when opening the doors.
  9. Extremely Strange Brake Pedal Noise

    Sounds like a brake peddle being pushed. 👌
  10. How much mulch have you hauled?

    Haha, yeah the first time I went in for mulch the guy said I need to get my truck wet to make it a little bigger. 😄
  11. Seat Jackers - anyone installed?

    Even the ones with adjustable seats are all hinged at the front so that part of the seat doesn't adjust on any of them. It would be nice, but I sure wouldn't even pay $70 for it. For the odd long trip it would be nice, but yeah I couldn't get over the price for something I could DYI.
  12. Seat Jackers - anyone installed?

    Looks like it would be nice to have, but $110 for two tiny plates of metal and some screws. Seriously?
  13. Windshield Chips

    I hear you, lots of dump trucks on my commute as well, at least most of them use the required covers on the dumps.
  14. Windshield Chips

    No issues with the windshield at all after almost 2 years. Stop tailgating dump trucks. :p
  15. How much mulch have you hauled?

    One yard fits no problem.
  16. Tracking a stolen car with telemetrics system

    First post, seems legit. :cautious:
  17. YES, your car spying on you and automakers are selling the info

    You can unplug it on the modem altogether, about this time last year another user went over this. If I recall correctly he outright removed the modem. How long do you think the back up power supply lasts?
  18. YES, your car spying on you and automakers are selling the info

    Unplug the fuse for the LTE modem in the truck, after that there is nothing to transmit the data. If you go to a Ford dealer for services, they will likely plug it back in every time you go, so you'd need check it after each visit. Since it's retaliated to GPS, from the looks of it, yeah the...
  19. I Don't Know Why I Forget To Take Pictures When I Do Certain Things.

    It's not just older folks, I'm still under 40 and forget even if I had intended to take a picture. :ROFLMAO:
  20. What's your Maverick mileage and ownership time?

    22 Hybrid, just over 20,100 km (approximately 12,500 miles), picked up in late July 2022. 28-30 minute drive to work, so about an hour minimum work days. Very little freeway driving other than camping trips. Usually driven 4-6 days a week.
