Are the problems fixed for MY24 hybrids?

[glider]

I was wondering if the issues like deep sleep, fire danger, air bags etc will be fixed on the MY24 hybrids. I guess once someone has a MY24 built we might know.

Well, judging from a recent pole on here, it appears to be much less of an issue. But I think there’s more context to it than just saying it’s a problem or issue.
Someone please correct me if I’m wrong on this The deep sleep function is to prevent the battery from not having enough charge to start the vehicle.

I can't say they are fixed, but late 23's seem to have much less issues. 2024 should be even better. They've had 2 full years to iron out the kinks.

I hear you but from what I’ve seen there are plenty of issues like the radio and Bluetooth that seem to have pervaded through each model year.

I haven't seen any issues on my late 23, but only 2 months and 3300 miles so far.

These issues were fixed for late model year 2023 Maverick Hybrids so the 2024 will also be fixed.

My 2023 Maverick XLT Hybrid built on September 8, 2023 has no outstanding Recalls or TSBs.

Also so far the 12 Volt Battery voltage has never been below 12.2 Volts and immediately after even short trips goes up to at least 12.5 Volts.

Those who have radio issues are mostly running old software and haven't updated yet.

Also BAD cables are an issue for some and they blame it on the radio.

Listen there are multiple threads on the latest updates to the firmware for the radio. I’m in those threads along with many others. All of us still have Bluetooth dropping out religiously in our vehicles and it has nothing to do with cables as a cable will transition to CarPlay..

I got my Maverick in early May 2023. Drove it two months before started having deep sleep issues. After replacing the battery, fuse, and cable turns out the messages saying the powertrain control system has detected a fault were correct. After consulting with Ford, the dealer says the dc/dc converter needs to be replaced. Been waiting for over three months now for the part and Ford can't give me an estimate on when it will arrive. So I'd say no, there are still issues. Dealer unfamiliarity with Maverick servicing and repair, poor supply management, and possible design flaws.

Unfortunately, yours is one of the early builds. About the same as the 22's issue wise.

My bluetooth was setup by the salesperson and it failed to connect the very first time I got back in the vehicle after I got home.
I deleted the connection and paired the phone again. It has paired without fail, every time I've gotten in the vehicle. And has never dropped out.

I don't use carplay because I do not own or use apple products.

Fire risk was a problem with the gasoline engines used in the Hybrid that were made within a certain range of mfg. dates. It is not an issue on vehicles made now.

Air bag issue has been corrected and is not an issue on vehicles made now.

I have had my '23 only a few weeks, but so far, I've had no issues at all with the 12 volt battery.

That makes two of us

I have a 22 and never had any issues, just brought it into the dealership and got everything updated and been enjoying it ever since. Plus paid way less for it and got more features from the original run.
