Ha ha ha ha loved them all ESPECIALLY the last oneReading the reviews on anything is a trap. People who hate products love to bad mouth and give it a 1 star. Few people want to rave about it and give it 5 stars. Everyone that is satisfied is not talking. Similar to a forum. Plenty of hype and some small to serious issues
I know I can’t remember all the issues but below are some of them. I would use it as a guide of things to keep an eye out for but not to stress over.
Fuel tank recall - problem solved going forward
Seat belt recall - problem solved going forward
Paint chips (rocks)
broken front grill (probably a 🪨 rock)
Windshield cracked (rocks and warranty)
Transmission fluid overflowing (overfilled during build, Ford said this issue has been addressed)
Ford pass remote start on hybrids running rich and turning the CAT red hot is a computer issue that Ford needs to fix.
Various alignment issues from a few people. Should be an easy fix for any of them. I’ve heard steering wheel shakes at 70 MPH and truck pulls the right from two different people.
Half shaft and control arm squeak/leak - both got replaced under warranty.
Radio freezing - Ford said the fix is coming next week.
Various rattles from different components that got lose, easy fix for most of them so far.
Rain leaks into back door because of improper sealant behind door panel. Fixed by the dealer without issue.
poor sealant/weld where truck bed meets the windshield (bottom left/driver side). This is an eye sore more than an issue.
Hood shake that has numerous solutions.
Dead on Arrival. One hybrid has been DOA and status is unknown at this point. It’s sad but sometimes there is a dud.
Some people have noted that when they hit a deer, or semi truck their truck no longer functions.

Of that 1 you have 1/3 that have legitimate complaints, 1/3 that just want to bitch because in their world everything should be perfect, and the last 1/3 that make you wonder if they can spell CAT much less know their way around a car.Don't know what website you are referring to.....
Because on this website the ratio of VERY happy Maverick owners vs. people reporting minor issues is about 25:1
