Ford now preventing the auto start stop wiring harness install?

[gman0025]

Does anyone else have this issue with the 2026 Ford Maverick where there’s a smooth round metal glob over top the 7mm nut where the ratchet goes to unscrew and remove the metal piece covering the wire connection? It’s preventing that screw from being removed from the metal plate covering the plug. See the pic.


Ford is so infuriating doing to prevent anyone else from doing this it seems.
