I am excited about a fold-down midgate. This could carry over to the next gen Maverick. Really makes it a more functional truck without growing beyond 200". 4 1/2' bed to 6' bed when needed.

2025 is first year for new MPC Ecoboost engine in Maverick- earlier Mav's have older gen Ecoboost engine

this is an early Ford sketch- shows 4 spoke wheels and front-end

https://www.autoblog.com/features/fords-most-important-truck-right-now-might-not-be-the-f-150 Next gen Maverick is very important to Ford. I see a hybrid Lobo (Lincoln Nautilus drivetrain) and King Ranch in the future + more options to pick from

only noise I hear is doors locking @ 13mph- no clunking

if you're not on the recall list and you want piece of mind crawl, under with a flashlight and make sure the ball-joint stud is fully engaged into the hub. Then go have a beer and relax- there are ~ 2400 ? Mavericks affected out of all the trucks built before June 2025. If you're on the list...

looks like you are fully seated- good to go

I was not talking about the ball-joint in the control arm, it is not a separate part. I meant the ball-joint stub into the hub. The pictures shown show this stub not fully engaged as being the issue and the reason for the alert.

looks like they see if it is fully seated. if not, then they loosen the pinch-bolt and jack-up on the ball-joint to engage fully engage into the hub and then tighten the pinch-bolt??

how much installed?

do you have front frame damage? looks like fender, bumper and grille from photo. $10,500 seems high

not a problem unless you are part of the 1%

Unless you have a "self-driving" feature, Ford will not cover any of this. I guess this is the last time your daughter will drive your truck.

for it to cover multiple years is strange- there must be something in the assembly process of the lower control arm that must be variable or there is an ongoing tolerance issue with the parts involved- this can happen again, in the future applications that use the lower control arm assembly

all 2025's and 2026's (MPC) have direct and port injection and a revised intake to eliminate the need for an additional oil separator.

my Lobo misses another recall!

tailgate is the same as a door- you can lock/unlock with the sensor on front door handle (3 raised lines), the fob or the Ford app. As stated, the Lariat has everything, don't let anybody sell you anything other then the sunroof or sliding rear window ($995, 350).

you can buy a glove-box dampener on amazon. tailgate dampener is a better option to get

a 2026 XLT with the same options is $34,115 on the website and you would still have to add $115 for a spare tire. Though they have employee pricing currently. $28,300 for an XLT HB is a good price. I'd say throw in the floor liners and we have a deal

It appears to have a nicer interior like the Santa Cruz. R/T version seems to be in line with Lobo. To be cost effective, they have to build it here. Stellantis quality is not the best. I know, numbers say Ford quality sucks. I'm still leery of a Ram (Dodge). 2028-2029 could be crazy- Toyota...
