I own the 2022 Ford Maverick XLT Hybrid and so far with

I own the 2022 Ford Maverick XLT Hybrid and so far with roughly 28,000 miles on it I love it. Cannot believe the gas mileage that I get. From April thru Nov I am in the upper 40's to low 50's. That is driving in the cities and highways between the cities. Any long travels on the expressway and my mileage drops to the mid to low 30's. When I purchesed it in 2022 I stayed with the standard XLT interior and I do not regred not upgrading it. It is comfortable for a vehicle and it is quiet. I have easily gotten 4 golf bags in the truck bed and 4 golfers in the cab with one of those golfers standing at 6 foot 8 inches. I've also been able to get 2 10 foot kayaks in the bed with no problem. Yes, they extended beyond the tailgate but had no problems. So far I rank my purchase of my 2022 SLT Ford Maverick Hybrid as one of the top two vehicles I've purchased in my life time, and I will be 74 in 2025.

Child seat upper portion attachment is ridiculous!

Just purchased this vehicle. Tried installing child seats. Absolutely ridiculous design for attaching the upper portion of the child seat!!! What were the designers thinking? You couldn't make it anymore difficult to install one car seat, let alone a pair. An attachment must be quickly made to allow the car seat attachment to be secured without moving the back forward. Just absolutely ridiculous, horrible, etc.!!

Overall an Awesome Truck!!!!!

I preordered my 2022 Maverick and waited 14 months for it to arrive. It is a Hybrid and overall I think that it is a great truck. There are some things that I wish that it had like my F150s had but it doesn't and overall in the scheme of things they are minor and it doesn't change how I feel about the truck. It has great performance and gas mileage is way better than an F150. As with first year production I have had some recalls that have been painlessly taken care of however there is one still open that Ford does not have a remedy for yet and that does concern me some but I still like the truck.

My Favorite Vehicle That Won’t Start

My 2022 Maverick hybrid is the girl you love but may have to break up with. Despite everything that’s right about it, which is virtually everything, I never know when I reach the garage if the dash will be dark and the battery dead. Truck has been to the dealership eight times in 15-months. Towed three of them. Currently has been at dealership a few days short of six-weeks as dealer, with help from Ford Corporate, try to figure out root cause of why a truck used daily randomly decides not to start. Most discerning is Ford’s slow response time to aid dealer in solving manufacturing issue and now that they are involved unable to fix the product they designed and manufactured.

Fantastic - Best Vehicle Owned

We bought the Maverick XLT Hybrid, and the first three months was frustrating trying to figure out our mileage and range. Wow, after that passed it consistently gets 930km if not more, on a full tank of gas using regular fuel. This vehicle gets constant attention, and we got the cactus grey color that is outstanding. The seats at the back will accommodate a tall person whereby, our son bought a 2022 Tesla 3 and it was a miserable ride at the back. The interior has some recycled material in its dashboard which should be a lead for the industry. It lacks ambient lighting as there is only a faint white color in the middle front console and the empty cubby hole in the screen display is a joke idea. They should have expanded the screen and we put a small stuffed bear in it to fill the void. The glass sunroof should have been a darker tint to give better protection against UV rays. The interior color scheme is wonderful with its contrast, and a comfortable ride. We often use economy gear for driving mode, and it was disappointing Ford was cheap in not putting in a top shelf for the console or lights for the vanity mirror. Ford also did not have upper handle bars on the driver side, and they did not put in cup holders at the rear seat. Yet, there are more features that give you a bang for the buck like rear light and socket plug in bed liner, good headlights (despite no fog lamps which was a turn off as most vehicles have them), and sassy stylishness for this small pick up that draws onlooker attention as I've had many inquiries and great reviews. I bought raised decal stickers on aliexpress for cheap price and stuck them on the rear gate to highlight the Maverick name and it looks great. Why pay lots for Ford's accessories if you can save money? There is fairly good space under the rear seat even with the hidden hybrid battery cover. The vehicle could be a tad higher but it still impresses our family's needs. This pick up will easily suit my needs for river fishing, camping and small loads. The rugged fender flares we got added style to our custom vehicle that took over 10 months before delivery. Check out the Maverick as it is a better ride than the former 2018 crossover Escape we traded in for this newbie. Happy Trails..... Kerwin Maude, b.a.

Battery Issues on a 2022 Ford Maverick.

I bought my 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrid with 11 miles on 2022.. And... I will never own another hybrid. The Ford Maverick ruined it for me because the battery stays dead! At 3,800 miles dead battery for no reason. Got a jump , deleted the fordpass app and it was fine until 10.6k miles Now every morning truck is dead... I cannot get ahold or contact anyone to discuss the issue. Very Very Upset with Ford Motor Company and the Ford Maverick Production.

Dangerous infotainment system

Maverick is great but the connectivity of the touch screen / audio / carplay is so bad it is a danger on the road. Unacceptable for a brand new vehicle. I have given up with the infotainment interface, otherwise i would be spending most of my time distracted while driving. It is safer to just be on your phone while driving. Great little truck but a big negative in the poor quality of the touchscreen.
