Those who have done lifts and larger tires. What has the effect been on your millage and has anyone had problems with ACC (adaptive cruise control) system?

Has anyone had their ACC reset/retuned after a lift? (I understand that doing so voids the warranty)

I have a 2025 Lariat, and want to lift and/or do larger tires but do not what ruin the function of ACC
Between the tires and lift Id be looking at going up 4 inches

Is 4 inches a lot? Asking for a friend.

(ACC and lane centering) 1) others have reported it being an issue on other vehicles after lifts and tires
2) The sensors are intentionally angled and set to watch the road. Changing the height and angle of the sensors from can prevent that system from functioning properly

I'm not sure about the Maverick having issues, I've watched tons of videos and have 3 friends with lifted Mavericks. None of them have mentioned issues.

On the other hand, when I lifted my 22 Crosstrek 3" I did have to have all of the "Eyesight" features calibrated.

How much did it run you to have a dealer do the recalibration?

Recalibration is possible with a $20 OBDII cable and a Windows laptop with Forscan. Takes about 2 minutes of driving down a road with lane markings on both sides.

Stealership will charge a couple hundred.

On my previous '22 Maverick Lariat, I had a 1.5" front lift and 245's and it did not affect my ACC/Lane Centering. Did not need to adjust anything. I do believe my 245's lowered my gas mileage 1-2 MPG's, though.

RIP Axles
If I had a 2024 model or earlier, definitely. The updated axles on the 2025s are the performance ones they put on the tremor models prior. They should be a little more forgiving than the previous years design

Just for your information ... Installed a Rough Country 2" lift on my 2024 Lariat AWD 2L Ecoboost. This is the MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED lift due to drive train alignment issues!

MAXIMUM RECOMMENDED TIRE SIZE is 245/60 or equivalent based on 7" rim size. Just saying
