Maintenance Reminder Message for Oil Change

[Maggie5618]

I am 1,100 miles away from needing my first oil change on my 2025 Maverick XLT, and am now getting a "Change engine oil soon" nag notice every time I start up the Mav. Pressing OK on the steering wheel does not clear the message permanently, and I don't want to reset the oil life just to get rid of the maintenance reminder message. (I got it! I got it! I'm gonna to need an oil change soon!). To me there's a difference between soon and now. Is there a way to get rid of the nag notice?

I just got the Mav back after two days getting the third and fourth recall corrections done. The service advisor did not mention my oil needing to be changed at that time.

I have an extended service plan that is for a maximum of six 10,000 miles service intervals (that include oil changes and tire rotations).

I had the tires rotated at 5,000 miles on my own dime as I believe it to be a good practice. If I had not, the service advisor confirmed that it would have counted as a service under the plan.

Anyway, I am conscientious about following maintenance schedules and realize that heavy usage/extreme conditions may necessitate having maintenance done sooner but that is not the case here.

Thanks!

How many miles are on your Mav? Based off of what you're describing, I think it's because you're approaching the 12 month mark on the monitor. Did you pick up your Mav more or less 1 year ago?

No way to permanently remove the message other than resetting the monitor. I would just get the oil changed and call it a day.

I was getting the oil change message every day on my 2023 Hybrid. It has been one year since I last changed the oil (I only put on about 3000 miles a year). I changed the oil myself a few days ago and reset the reminder. Mobil 1 Full Synthetic. At age 70 I am tempted to let the dealer change the oil but I don't trust them to put in full synthetic even though I pay extra for it. They advertise synthetic blend. Probably makes no difference to the longevity of my engine but I want to get what I pay for.

Change the oil & reset the OLM. Until then, push a button.

This is the only way you get it to quit nagging. Reset the oil reminder.
Instructions are here

Don't forget to get your oil changed. Then reset it again on the day the oil gets changed.

Reset the oil life, and then reset again when you change oil.

The last time I had my oil changed they didn't reset it so mine is coming on 1,191 miles to early. I was over 500 miles last time and it never came on. Im going to check it this time when I get it done.
