Major Issue with NEW Maverick

[ClemsonU88]

Has anyone’s order been updated on the Ford Tracker or OrderTrack App since last Tuesday (5/17)? My modules went live on 5/17, and since then…nothing.

Re: the sunglasses compartment: On my Expedition we have always used that compartment for the spare key. So, if I'm not around, and my wife needs the truck, she uses the key code to unlock the door and uses the key to drive it. So, it's not my sunglasses compartment, it's my spare key cubby!
Seriously, that's one of the reasons I love the key pad entry.

Don't feel bad, my original build date was week of 5/9, then 5/16/ then 5/23 & now yesterday it is moved back to week of 6/3. Will it ever be built? Ordered 7/26 Lariat Hybrid, Rapid Red, Luxury Pkg, CoPilot 360, & First Edition.

Don't feel bad. Mine started out on April 4. then April 18. then April 25. then April 11. then April 25. Then May 2. My build started on April 29th. It is now May 22nd and Ford tells me that it is still in production. 24 days after they started building it.

Moonroof works perfectly.

It has been raining since i took delivery of my Maverick. Yesterday it was 90+ degrees and the SUN was shining. After washing my (Area 51, Hybrid, Lux, 360) truck I decided to take a spin. When i returned home I realized that my sunglass compartment would not open.

Everyone have a wonderful weekend.

Oh that is so bad you cant trust a sun glass holder!! I cant check mine BECAUSE MY PRODUCRION DATE KEEPS CHANGING. But ill go to Turtles house to make sure he is telling you the truth , he lives in the county. "Hi Turtle".

Well my glasses were still on my face - I was trying to put them away at the time. I have a doctors appointment at the Ford dealership set for Tuesday.

How did you find out your Doctor was going to be at the dealership OR perhaps your service rep has a PHD in ripping ooops "repping"?

That's what you get for not just going with the moon roof and getting rid of the sunglass holder.

If you go with the moon roof perhaps you could 3D print a sunglass holder and set it on the roof with magnets. You would not need them while it is raining so wouldn't need to open the moon roof.

That is a bummer! June is suppose to be a big build month for Mavrick, maybe mine will be selected??? Hope you receive yours soon.

Dude, you could hand craft one out of fine wood and rich Corinthian leather that fits and works perfectly in 30 days. If they can’t fix a sunglasses holder in 30 days, it’s time to torch that vehicle and start over.

In SC it used to be if you had to take a new car in 3 times for the same problem, it was a lemon. My ’88 Dodge Daytona actually fell into that category. They ultimately rewired the front end, so the headlights would work correctly. I didn’t know about the lemon law until after it was fixed.

Yet.....I had a Ford replaced under the Arizona Lemon Law in 2007 because it spent a cumulative 30+ days in the shop for issues that were never resolved. #sadbuttrue

The sunglass holder is pretty much the worst problem I've had with my Maverick. If I put small sunglasses in they rotate and jam up the locking mechanism, and now as the temperature goes up the locking mechanism itself has fallen out.

I figure if thats the worst issue though I'm doing good.

Apparently a former Director of a New Jersey road project has been hired to fix this guys sunglasses holder. If it is fixed in less than 30 days, it is a miracle. Here on road projects, hundreds of orange barrels and detour signs that lead to nowhere are put out on day one. That is followed by no actual construction. There are, however, four to six months of crucial meetings to determine what flavor of donuts the construction crew should have depending on the day of the week. At some of the meetings, near anarchy breaks out between the lemon-filled and Boston groups. It can get pretty ugly.

They put those unused signs and barrels out on day one, so they can charge rent on them. At least we’re seeing some “progress“.

That sunglasses holder will be fixed by CHRISTmas. Mark my words.

Mine sticks as well. The work around seems to be to push in on it at the normal spot, then push up on the back of it, on the side closest to the windshield, at which point it will pop open. On another note, I have been confused on why there is not a removable insert at the bottom of the two cup holders in between the front seats like I have had in every other car I have ever owned that had cupholders in that location. I looked around on a ford parts schematic and found an insert, part number NZ6Z6013562AA that I can source for somewhere between $85 and $120, which looks right in the drawings but I can't find a photo of it anywhere. Can anyone see if they have a removable rubber insert at the bottom of the cup holders, maybe mine got left out somehow?
