Mav friends
Saw a youtube from the guy in Kansas that explained there was a change in the sunroof design according to the updated spec sheet he had. Instead of listing the sunroof as a tilt/slide, Ford now lists it as a slide sunroof. He said it appeared it will not tilt. I am really bummed because all of my cars had a tilt/slide.
Did anyone else who ordered a sunroof have a concern? For those who received their Mavs already, did you get a sunroof and does it tilt? Tell me the guy in Kansas is wrong!
Thanks

Fords official website still says "Power Tilt/Slide Moon Roof"

Edit found part of it in this video
37:55 someone said they confirmed it does tilt. It should be the same part as the bronco sport which does tilt

37:55 in this video


Bronco Sport Moonroof

Seriously? I would be pissed if that's the case. It's an $800 option.

I almost exclusively use the tilt function on every moonroof I’ve owned. The order guide(previous one), build and price, and the specs on my tracker all say it will tilt. My build is already scheduled and I’ll be very disappointed if it don’t tilt as I can’t change it now. I’ll expect a credit from ford much like how they gave free awd upgrades for their mistake if I receive my truck and it doesn’t tilt. It wasn’t a cheap option and completely standalone so no package benefit I’m still receiving.

I will say that IF it's not a tilt then I'll be dropping it from my build. I realize it's personal preference, but hopefully we'll get more certain clarification ASAP

I take everything in the manual with a grain of salt. Especially the moonroof section mentions a panoramic version. They just copy a paste sections from similar vehicles, but don’t verify that matches what’s being offered. That’s how you get into this mess of inconsistencies. They need to proofread that manual.

My window sticker says it's a tilt/slide.

The vid above was talking about Bronco and the moonroof. The YouTube was about Mav. I will post it soon.

I’m in Pittsburgh PA and my sunroof is open all summer and tilted on cooler fall/spring days. It’s a must have accessory.
