Hello,

New here and to owning my first Ford Maverick Tremor being a slightly used 2025 however have noticed various issues that are concerning, first one being, what is causing an interior dong sound (1x only) just after driving a few minutes every time I start out?
thanks!

So start the truck and sit and wait to see if you hear a dong while keeping an eye on your dash and your radio screen.
OR
Reset your radio settings back to factory to see if there is a setting you don't know about that has a sound notification value turned on.

Good dong...uhm Luck !!

Why would anyone in their right mind put a Big Block Chevrolet in a Ford truck?

I don't know about the big blocks, but apparently it's far easer (and cheaper) to put a chevy small block into a classic ford than a ford engine.

Most of the ford rat-rods have chevy engines & transmissions.

That it should be prosecuted as a crime against Americana is a whole separate issue . . .

I think it's easier because of the rear oil sump.

I had to buck the system and put a Ford Small Block in my 33 Ford Street Rod when I built it…. It was the “right” way to do it in my opinion…. It also has rear sump.

Approaching school zone or a railroad crossing maybe

Could be one or both sides of truck is over 1/2 of a lane dash or stripe for 30-40 feet? Most likely I expect is there is no stripe for a distance on passenger side.

No one said A.I. was intelligent

Thats for you to check if dong is missing, showing or extended for over over 4 hours

Thanks, that’s why I purchased it but traded in my terrific Jeep Wrangler to get it but only due to health reasons. Not happy because it doesn’t have certain features that are suppose to be with the truck according my research here in Canada before purchasing. And the quality of the materials are subpar compared to my ex-Jeep.
The dealership is done answering my questions now that they took my money. It was hard enough getting answers to my initial questions before the purchase having to constantly hound them! Stuck with it now though even though it sounded good on paper! Sorry everyone, here is probably not the place to complain…

You got that right
