If you bought the 2.0L, you are probably 2-3 months out. Hybrid - dunno.. 4-6?

I'm sorry to hear that! You could try a few things to clean it up. On my 2012 focus, changing the spark plugs and O2 sensor bought me some more time. My check engine light just came on again, though. Inspection runs out in may. Hopefully I can get delivery by then.

Dealers have 2.0 units coming in and some are at msrp go to the end of the build price website and have the software search for a unit the start calling. I found a XL at MSRP under 23K. Good luck.

I think I got my last extension today good till Feb...... The problem is in the lower part of the engine. Timing chain, cam.It would cost me too much to fix. Which is why I need my mav.

I feel your pain. My car is on the ragged edge of needing expensive repairs. I was supposed to have a new Chevy Bolt by now, but the stop sale stopped me right before I was going to pick it up. I am in limbo on that as well as the Maverick. I will be pissed if I have to spend big money to keep this car going when I am planning on trading it within months

I appreciate the advice, but I'm not interested in settling.

OMG - will Lucas oil additive "FIX" timing chain? Doubtful! Only maybe if something is "sticking"? Which mav did you order? That you won't settle from?
