My Ford Mavericks Long List Of Issues The Last 2 Years 

The sheer balls of putting 10K miles on a vehicle and labeling it bulletproof. Mine has 40k and I'd feel ashamed if I said something so bold. Also titled the video "long list of problems" then says "I'm having trouble coming up with things". Holy clickbait.

100,000 = Reliable. 250,000 = Bulletproof

I expect nothing less than zero issues on any vehicle that has less than 20k miles I’ve watched other RU-vidrs and read forums that some of these mavericks start having significant issues by the time they get close to 100k miles. I wouldn’t call that bulletproof or even reliable.

It is not an investment, investments go up in value.

No issues but recalls on My 2022 MAVERICK. Love it still.

I would agree, until yesterday. I waited over a year for mine. Got it in Oct 2023. XLT Hybrid. It rolled over 9000 miles yesterday. I have babied it since I got it. I was in Eco mode and driving down hill temp was about 78, taking it easy as always. Heard a rattle and looked back to see smoke behind me. Odd. But nothing on instrument panel. Kept going a few minutes later same thing slight noise from rear of truck ???? then some smoke. Then instrument panel came on! Service engine soon. I open Ford App and got these 2 notices: Service Engine Soon and Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power. I pulled over turned it off. (reboot?) Then I kept going. Oh no Ford don't let me down! Attempted to continue drive home but soon found out max speed was 40 mph -going down hill. It was terrifying! I was on 4 lane highway. Extremely DISAPPOINTED!!! Then may end my relationship with Ford.

I just picked up a used maverick on Friday, it’s 23 lariat with the hybrid engine and I’ve absolutely loved it so far did a huge amount of research going it to it a lot was watching you guys review them and cover them. Thank you guys so much for helping me to make a great decision!

As a guy who's put 180k to 400k miles on vehicles, 10k is not bulletproof, it's virtually brand new.

I own 2 Mavericks 1st is a 2023 XLT Hybrid. The second is a 2024 Lariat FX4 with a 4K towing package. I love mine. As for a rust problem Use bed liner spray. I live in Florida so I shouldn't have a problem. Love your Video's

😆😆I just happened to see the lifted one on face book marketplace and thought “hey that looks familiar “ then I saw it was yours. I love the look of both of these. I hope someday to buy a maverick and turn it into a prerunner

Bought one Mav 2023 XLT 2.0 Ecoboost used crashed 2 passenger doors replaced other than that no issues whatsoever good power, only cooment I would say I feel that it chugs to much gas.

1000 miles so far so good. wish i knew someone with a car lift so i can get under there myself. i wanna do a lot to it especially for the protection like you said and maybe more plating for offroad

Mind died on me at 75 mph on the freeway nearly killing me and all of those around me. It spent six weeks in a shop in Denver at Larry Miller Ford. They could have cared less even though I was from out of state . Anyone who buys one of those buyer beware. It could kill you and your family

I own a '22 Maverick XLT 2.0 with Luxury and FX4 pkgs, and love it. The Luxury pkg comes with a lot of nice stuff including power/adjustable seats, which I think are VERY COMFORTABLE. I have had ZERO problems or issues (except for more than it's share of recalls), and never an issue with screen going black. But how to fix it is nice to know should it blackout on me.

They look good and are great on gas(hybrid)…That’s pretty much where it ends. It’s full of cheap plastic, ride horrible for anything longer than a trip to the grocery store, and suck for carrying anything more than groceries. What’s really amazing is the people justifying this buggy, because they got it cheap, With some waiting a year and a half to get delivery. Good luck after 30k miles. The hybrid engine is the best part of this bucket of bolts. Check some 12k+ mileage reviews. Then drive a Honda Ridgeline if you like this class. Sure no hybrid, but waaay better ride and service, as a small to medium truck!

Ok, is it rock soild, or bulletproof, or loads of problems ?

i have 96k on my 2022 Hybrid. runs like a baby on the same stock tire set. (about to change that). Does anyone have any info on Sparkplug changes for Mavericks? its seems silly I know but when i went to change mine, the spring of the coil pack got stuck to the plug. i didn't want to mess with it , wasn't sure if that was an issue for anyone. thx

Can you shift into park while driving without pressing the break? My Maverick accidentally shifted into park when my hand brushed against the shifting wheel.

I really want one but I’m debating on waiting for a 2025 model. Do you think I should wait too?

It's an evolution of the Sport Trac it's a Filipino grocery getter

i’m probably going to get a xlt hybrid 2024 because i don’t want a 2025 one that’s a plug in since electricity is going so high

Tons of recalls on them. I kept mine for a year and got tired of going back to the dealer.

I mean they have them making it in Mexico 🇲🇽 how much more can they cut back 🙄 Then elpole that protects body and frame from rust and the paint 😂 that must be a 5k car to make 🤔. Thanks for the video's guy's 🍻

Passenger seat sucks, have to reset the screen every other time you use it, and probably going to rust. But it’s bulletproof and you should go get one. Huh???

No rust in Florida boys.

Use ceramic coatings, boom

Hi from chile hope u answer just suscrive havent seen all ur videos jut got question Do u know issues concerning with cv axle problem of client who lift thei mavs 2" and change wheel to example wildpeak 245 60 65 and r17. Just met 1 last week. Lot of forum talking problema. I only did leveling in front of 1" RC and change to 235 60[65] dont remember r17 [same as tremor]. Who i be concern about that issue? If ford didnt go 245 and 2" in tremor it has to be for a reason. Saludos!

6k miles tHeSe ThInGs ArE bUlLeT pRoOf😂

Good video but hard to subscribe when your title is clickbait and misleading. I think its fine to be a fanboy also.

I’m sorry but it sounds ludicrous when you say the word bulletproof and it has 10,000 miles on it , very laughable now if you wanna say bulletproof after 100,000 miles, then that makes a lot more sense,

I would not buy anything made the last three years !

No issues! Cause you got a new one every three months!!!

LOL… try driving one past 6500 miles and your story may change. I purchased one of the first 2022 Maverick XL Ecoboost 2.0, AWD, 4K tow package (still a base model) in Fall of 2022 near Seattle and at 32k my rear differential/driveline had to be replaced due to improper machining and a small vibration just got worst as I drove it. During the pandemic they didn’t have a fix, so I had to wait a YEAR for replacement part upgrades. They told me to keep driving it (yep, it got worse) and they would replace anything damaged. They finally called me 10-1/2 months later at 58k miles and replaced them. Whew… It’s 2-1/2 years later and I’m almost at 93k. Yep, I drive over 3k a month mostly freeway. Now I’m taking my transmission in because it chatters in 2/3/4 gears searching for a gear. Freeways it’s smooth. We’ll see what happens. I’ve done all maintenance, run full synthetic fluids, etc… so even with detailed maintenance schedules… there are issues. Lastly, the infotainment systems stinks. My iPhone continually disconnects when on hands-free calls, the rear camera has remained “stuck” on when I shift into drive and I have to stop, park, shut off the engine… then turn it back on and drive away (without going into reverse) to get it to clear. The software is extremely slow and I’ve done regular software updates as available. Now I get it… I purchased the “cheapest” Ford truck… and it’s true, I can’t really be disappointed because I definitely “got what I paid for”, marginal reliability. I will say ONE great thing about this truck. The mileage has been great. With almost 93k miles freeway/in town driving mix… I average 26 mpg. Full freeway on a trip I avg 30 mpg. Yep, even over 90k mileage. So my complaint is more about running gear/transmission and electronics. I haven’t had any issues with the motor with full synthetic. So, that’s my feedback. I’ve watched videos with extreme differences. Knowing what I know now… I will “invest” more into a Japanese Truck and go that route. I don’t need anything past a small truck like this, so for me that’s fine. I’m sure the Ford Super Duty line is much better, I would hope so for $70k - $105k. :) All the best! Joel

22 hybrid. The mileage is unreal. Well over the EPA. 18K miles. Use 93 Octane…increases mileage and runs so much smoother. I still get excited every time I drive it. Had all brands…euro, Korean, Japanese. So far, this is on my top 5 list.

Some of these videos... I have had my 2022 XL Area 51 for 1 1/2 years and NOOOO ISSUES... 👍👍👍

Biggest con ive had with my 2024 maverick hybrid lariat is people keep asking about it in parking lots lol

They made sense to purchase with the initial 20-25k asking price. Now regularly priced/costing near 40k, not so much. That being said(typed), I might consider grabbing one if they launch a small cab long bed version for 25-28k.

Had the engine and transmission pulled on my 2022 hybrid at around 15k to have the engine dampener replaced. Before it was replaced it would sound like a diesel and shake and also misfire codes. Since the repair it’s been fine. Since then it’s just been endless recalls and glitchy infotainment screen. Currently 50k miles.

I've been in the undercoating racket for many years. NEVER spray paint!! Get your Maverick undercoated with Fluid Film ASAP, then again this Fall, then you'll be good for a yearly spraying. In theory a person should undercoat the day they drive it off the car lot.

Thank god im not the only one with the radio problem lol.

Consumer cars/trucks are not an investment.

Your video title is CLICKBAIT. But, beyond that, the actual video is quite good,

The only Ford Maverick I would buy would be the base model as all other trims are a complete waste of money. You're getting so ripped when you're buying additional trims.

Nice video thx. I'm looking to get the 2025 with the facelift

Going over MSRP? I’m seeing prices online and marketplace for MSRP or less. The market has shifted for the buyers now

If it doesn't have at least a 6'-4'' bed, it's not a truck. It's an a mini suv with a cute basket on the back...

2022 Ecoboost XLT AWD owner with all the options approaching 45K miles...no issues other than recall notices I haven't dealt with.

My 22 XLT FX4 LUX had a birthday yesterday 5/28 2 years old and I still love it. Had a few radio issues nothing serious, otherwise I would get another in a second.

I was saying the same thing up until lest than a month ago when my 2023 lariat lost power twice on the freeway. At this point my life is being put in danger w/ no current fix so I'm in need of a buy back from Ford because I feel like I purchased a lemon and my money can definitely go to something reliable- trust me I am heart broken because I love my Maverick dearly but I also love my life even more. Be safe!!

I have a ‘23 hybrid with 20,000 miles on it ,and it vibrates when accelerating….. No other time, just acceleration.

VOLKSWAGEN is by far the worse vehicle I have ever owned. The Chevrolet, Pontiac, Mitsubishi were way better cars than my VW. Nothing but computer, technology, mechanical issues.

NH oil is a great under body treatment for rust prevention. We live in the UP of Michigan and get a ton of snow and road salt. Have had NH Oil in two vehicles with great success.

I bought 2023 Ford Maverick from a auction for $15655 . It was Salvage title i had just to replace rear bumper and rear light which total cost me $16500 . Is good deal ? Truck is in perfect condition like Brand new

Our 2022 hybrid has been flawless. The only "issue" was sometimes the radio is slow to chage to inputs. You change the channel, and it takes a few seconds to switch to that channel. That's about it.

lol. Not enough miles to even make this video. I put 76k on mine in a year. What would you like to know. That being said, my transmission just cratered which is $7300 to replace

How does a vehicle still under warranty have issue with the infotainment system not covered under warranty? I don't understand

Legit clean looking mavericks! 👌 i like both lifted and lowered., what do you guys do for a living 🤔

So many things wrong with what you say, "It is an investment". No, it is not an investment. It may be a good value for utility but that does not mean investment. Owning a maverick does not make you money, but the work you do with it could make you money.

they look cheapo to me. like if the Bic disposable lighter company made a car.

Why there should be any issue with a vehicle with 10k miles lol

Just got my 24 xl in june, no issues

In Mississippi last weekend I drove 420 miles north then back to the coast and saw 2 Mavericks.. they are rare trucks. Saw 4 smart cars. Saw dozens and dozens of old Ford rangers the 1990s to 2000s era ones.. There was a giant carivan group of cars from Oklahoma going North at Mcgee on us 49. Like many dozens. All suvs

A maverick is not an investment It is an expense That depreciates every month!

lol 10k miles equals bulletproof

My only gripes. XTL LUX package hybrid 2022. -Radio is always showing black spots randomly during driving. Wired CarPlay is such a hassle. When I connect my phone, the audio only plays from my phone, forcing me to do the Power Button+Skip to get it reset. -A lux package with no digital dials?? It takes forever for me to find out my temperature due to the lag! -Lux Package should have came with the rear proximity sensors(when you're getting to close to objects, not cross lane warning) in the bumper. Sad you can only get that on the Lariat! - At close to 20,000 miles, my right front axle was clicking, dealer replaced both axles under warranty. My take: Buy the Lariat if you can get it. I love my Maverick.

lucky you that you didnt have isssues, unfortunately many have mavericks with issues including me with a pos that sound like you are drving a used car with 100k miles.

Fluid film

XLT 30,000 miles ... love it ... definitely agree with passenger seat comment ... only bug a boo for us ... not much control over transmission gearing ... would really like “gear up”, “gear down” and “gear hold” ... tow haul, 3secs on brake pedal is all we’ve found But it’s “sticky”, quick and difficult to do bat turns ... we love it!

Legendary? When you get 200K on (1) specific vehicle, you can taut legendary status and only if it's be a very reliable, trustworthy, does everything great vehicle. The Maverick has a way to go IMO.

Any packages or upgrades you’d recommend for my maverick before i buy one?

2022 xl for over a year, and more than 30,000 km myself on it, and the only real issue i had was the heat exchanger that keeps the sytem warm while running hybrid, was not working properly, but ford got it fixed quick and it was part of the warranty. other than that im gonna try to fit the biggest tires i can on the stock suspension xD

I have a lariat hybrid and I've been pondering a lift with bigger tires. I don't need a big difference, maybe an inch and a half higher. Any recommendations? I don't want to get rid of my lariat rims, maybe some a/t tires, but I don't know what kind of lift I should get for the hybrid.

I have a 22 hybrid. 17k miles. I did have windshield replaced because of creaking dash and blower motor replaced due to squeak. Other than that, nothing else really. Just a bunch of damn recalls with like 4 outstanding right now and Ive had 3-4 done already.

My gmc canyon lifted.... but brought me home in a huge snow storm. She has 33s on it though. I love her. Wont trade until i see these things way better. Rangers are pricey af

I have a few issues, that they can’t find or fix. I think I got the Lemon

46k on my 2022 1st Ed. Lariat. Its problem free so far

Aluminum sux. No matter how you spin it,

It rusts because you live up North,

What tires are on the 24' lifted?

Buy a new truck every 6 months... yeah I'd likely have zero issues as well. What a joke.

Great video, and I bleed Ford Blue, but really, how can you say things like “bullet proof “ and “rock solid” after owning one for 6 to 10k miles? Most people I know would put that many miles on one in a couple of months, and plan to drive it until it’s paid off. How about making a real world video after 80 to 100k? Realistically, who would go buy a newer car every 6 to 10k miles?

Have you checked hidden areas like the CV joints and transmission? I’m reading on forums about folks finding leaks there with less than 10,000 miles on some of their trucks. I just read about another owner who found her driveway full of (unidentified) fluid. All these issues and many recalls and none of these trucks have anywhere near 100k miles and are only 3 years old at most. This shouldn’t happen. I’m not confident in these making it very far without something happening.

I like how people made fun of Honda for years about their truck. Then copies it, and now it's wonderful. I also found it funny that you say I have had no issues taking a four hour trip in it. Wow, how amazing is that! I have a Honda with almost 300,000 miles and would drive it all the way across the country without an issue.
