Corporate bean counters push these companies to cheap out on every little detail to max out profit while keeping production costs low. Everything that goes on some of these cars are about the lowest possible bid from around the world. No pride from companies (like Ford) to be able to claim their vehicles will last for 150+ k miles. None of them really make that claim but it would be refreshing to have one do it.
It’s true, for a long-long time they have been going down hill. It’s also a shame, because many years ago (like 20) they were quality vehicles. I have a Ford (hybrid) that is 10 years old and 85,000 miles. Maybe I am lucky, but it is running excellent, the battery shows 94% efficiency and I am getting 45MPG. More and more I think I am the lucky exception rather then the rule. If it lasts another 15,000 miles I will be content, but they should last 150,000 miles or more without any issues. I hope Ford turns it around with their quality, time will tell.
Fords were pretty good during the years 1986 to 2000, and the ones i owned went well over 200,000 miles with no problems, but in 2001they lost the ball and have been going downhill ever since. The 2001 Windstar was an example of the downward trend in Ford's quality.
😮 my brother bought a 90 something taco ma and was recalled for the frame, rusting out. He took it back to the dealer, he never seen it again, they told him it was unsafe for him to drive, wrote him a check for book value. He had to call someone to come pick him up to get back home.
I test drove a new Taco. Not for me. I hate the way you sit in them. Doesn't work for my frame. I bought a GMC Canyon. Has 80k on it now. No issues has 2.8 diesel. 30 mpg on highway all day long. Idiots don't offer the engine this year. Typical. Don't know why. Don't care. I got mine.
Yep, me too, that issue he’s talking about was a recall issue with Mavericks made between October ‘21 and February ‘22 I think. So it shouldn’t be an issue with any Mavericks made after that time frame.
I've had my 2022 Maverick for ever since Nov 2022... 0 issues so far, only 1 recall which is something to do with the bulbs for the Turn Signals. Have about 20,000 miles on it and it's been great so far. Have 4k Towing, Ecoboost motor, FX4 Package... Seems like a lot of the Mavericks that have issues are Hybrids, glad I avoided the Hybrid lol
I have the same engine and transmission in my Ford. Run AMSOIL Signature Series and you can run 8,000-9,000+ miles on a change. I just got my oil analysis back and it's running perfectly at 45,000 miles.
That's a testament to the owner of the Datsun. A Ford from that era can still be dependable too. I have a 620 pickup, one of the best looking compact trucks of the 70s.
Coincidently I very quickly skipped lanes on the Westgate Freeway today when a Tesla pulled into mine directly in front of me - for that exact reason. Australia.
Sad to hear about these early problems. So far my 2023 Maverick Hybrid has been great! But the Tacoma's are made in Mexico too!! I'm confused Scotty. Are Mexican auto workers good or not?
yeah, it will and teach them not to tailgate eventually.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 also, you might save someone's life by teaching them to not tailgate they won't tailgate a tesla which can Fantom brake like scotty says and they won't die like the motor cyclist did.
I've done that before and even had a sign on the back of my vehicle saying so and you know what? Apparently they didn't know how to read either. They kept doing it!,
I would suggest using that method with caution. It usually works for me, but some people are so stupid/aggressive that they will, for example, move to the shoulder and close pass rather than moving over to a lane that happens to have faster moving traffic.
Ford haters abound no worse than any other make Alway had good luck with fords and will continue to buy fords General motors are no better thats for sure
Scotty, I did the same thing. I had a 22 Maverick hybrid with all kinds of problems and I sold it and purchased a Nissan frontier. I am so much happier. All the issues were disappointing scary time-consuming, and not worth the effort for the 40 miles per gallon.
I'm no fan of CVTs but that Maverick hybrid combo is proven and lasts a long time. That and the Frontier is only rated at 17 city 22 highway with 4wd. You can get an F-150 that has more power and gets better mpgs.
Ford quality is non-existent. Went to make a Service Appointment today with my local Ford Dealer to address a Recall. Was told that the next available appointment is June 2024. Called around to other Ford Dealers within a 50 mile radius and told the same thing. Asked one Service Center what was going on and they freely admitted that all Ford Service Centers are overwhelmed right now because of the high number of recalls flooding Ford Service Centers. NICE!
I heard that Chrysler, specifically the Jeep Division, in one metropolitan area, is so backed up with warranty work the dealerships are outsourcing the work to independent shops.😮😅
The only problem we have with our 22 Maverick is when we go to Wally world.. can’t get out of the truck before somebody comes over and says is that the new Maverick? Can’t unload the groceries before somebody comes over and says is that the new Maverick? Turn off the AC and you get 50 miles a gallon and sometimes even 60. Love this truck!!!!
I have had 2 2022 Mavericks both with the two liter EcoBoost haven't had many problems other than with the display being kind of glitchy. The one I've got now is the all-wheel drive with towing package got almost 30,000 mi on it with no problems I will say it definitely does search for gears too many options with the 10 speed I think. Was thinking about maybe going with the Ridgeline because of the wider bed made it a little difficult to put a full pallet of wood in the back with a forklift. Because the pallet sits on the wheel wells. Doesn't every company have lemons though??
Thats why I drive a 1975 ford maverick. Been nearly two years since i got it, no recalls, no mechanical faults outside a couple parts needing replacment since they were 50 years old. Its amazing how one of Fords lowest quality offerings in the 70's completely overshadow their highest efforts today.
I don't like how Scotty seems to accept, at face value, anecdotes that random people email in. Maybe the guy's Maverick story is true, but some dude emailing in to Scotty with no evidence isn't what I'd call good info to go on.
I have a 2023 XL Hybrid Ford Maverick I received it March 4 2023. I have put 21462 miles on it more highway than city driving. I love it I have had no problems or issues with it at all. I have only had 2 recalls omit and they were download updates one was for emissions and I don’t remember what the other update was for. I couldn’t be happier with my Maverick
@@fordmaverickmaniac we just gotta change the transmission fluid on time because I saw a RUclipsr named danieldeliverz he has a eco AWD and his tranny went out at 80k because he never did that
I own 2 that I show on my videos and am very happy. The letter he read was one guy's experience. Even Mercedes has some come off the assembly line with problems.
I find that interesting that he was having problems with his Sonic. My brother has a 2012 with a 1.4 turbo manual transmission has well over 200,000 miles and hasn't had any problems other than some regular maintenance and I have a 2014 with a 1.8 automatic and haven't had any issues with 70,000 plus miles
I have a friend with one, old with a zillion miles ..hr said nothing has ever broke. I kind of hope it would because it's a crackerbox car if i have ever seen one
Speaking of tailgating, I have a story for you. I worked on a military installation. One morning 2 GI's were so close to me that I could see their faces and no headlights. A skunk popped up and my 80 Malibu clunked it twice. The poor skunk flipped up on the windshield and finally slid off. They passed me with the widows down and both heads were out of the windows. Carma.... I still laugh. 40mph was the speed limit. OOPS! MIKEL
All new/newer vehicles are nothing but mostly plastic, soon to rust out or crack cheap steel (what there is of it) and soon to fail electronics not to mention way way overpriced throwaway junk! I will stick with my no payment older vehicles and upkeep them. Many people are gullible enough nowadays to lease this junk! Lose lose for them
I worked in a catalytic converter factory about 10 years ago. Back then anyways: Ford was hands down the best, dodge was the worst. Literally no difference in a dodge catalytic converter and a no name cheap aftermarket replacement.
Wifey's 2015 Honda Fit was made down yonder. She experienced no issues whatsoever. She traded it for a '21 CR-V. She loves it! The kid next door bought a '20 (or '21, maybe) Ford F-150 STX. The thing gave him plenty of problems, so he traded it for a '23 Tundra TRD. I dunno, but perhaps where Fords are built isn't necessarily the problem with them.
@@The_Laid_Off_Life An older gent once told me his Canadian-built GM cars were twice the vehicles than those he'd had which were built in the USA. That's due to the quality of the parts.
Toyota are having recall from both new Tundra and Tacoma The Maverick eco-boost ranks a 78 out of 100 that Tacoma average rank 83 no far from the Mavericks
Have a 23 maverick ecoboost Awd and love it, got nearly 13k miles already and one oil change. No issues yet and enjoying driving it to be honest. The amount of driving I do during the week in it should put it to a good test
Ya; some companies know what quality assurance is - Toyota; Honda, Japanese learned QA from the USA post WWII but The USA largely dumped it (see Deming) To a good degree USA brands after being burnt by the Japanese have gone back to it somewhat. Some German companies but largely missing elsewhere. What it means is you check the parts before you put them in and you spot check your final product - even tearing it apart weld by weld - to make sure they are built properly.
I love my Hybrid Maverick no problems at all. Averaging 40 mpg it’s enough truck for my daily commuting needs. If I need to use a work truck for towing I just drive my f350.
I drive a 2000 Jeep xj and I’ll never let this Jeep die because it’s so easy to work on and parts are reasonable, I’ll buy another Jeep jlu once I save up enough
If we can get more streamlined or standardized hybrids, it'll surely outpace all strictly electric vehicles in a few years. Im interested in seeing if hydrogen-petrol hybrid engines will take off in the next 4-5 years, seems really promising out of the japanese market.
I’m 66, and recall the days of my youth, when the big 3 were building great quality cars that were exciting and beautiful. But somehow in 1973: things began to go downhill for them, and it’s not gotten much better since. But for some strange reason, the Japanese brand started catching on in the 70s due to the fuel crisis, and the public caught onto them because they were durable and great value for the money, and they slowly eclipsed everything built the World over. It’s not that Americans and Europeans can’t build a Toyota. It’s they don’t care to.
Definitely get in the other lane with teslas.. they’re always phantom braking. I’ve never even heard that term before but they really suck to be behind.
I bought a brand new 2022 Maverick after waiting a year to get it. I wanted the hybrid and the alto blue lariat, and that's what i got.. at first it felt cheap, but it was cheap so i didn't mind, then the issues started.. it got jammed in park, and i had a brake module failure, the dealer replaced it, then it caught fire due to an electrical issue.. then ford bought it back. I really wish i bought the ecoboost, but i didn't know it was going to be an issue, the fusion hybrid's were really good vehicles.. I had two ther fords after that, all of which were bought back from the manufacturer, now i have a used Toyota, and no more issues..
NEVER buy a hybrid. It's just logic. The more complex a vehicle is the more that can go wrong, and the more expensive it will be to repair and service. Doesn't matter which brand, just buy an ICE only vehicle from a reputable brand and you can be confident you got the best value and a reliable vehicle.
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 Yes maybe so, but you paid a high premium for that version over the ICE only version so even with the little extra MPGs in that model it will take decades or more to make up the difference paid to buy it. You got lucky, most people don't get that fortunate even with Toyota, and their quality too has been quickly decreasing since the cophonyvirus came along. No car brand is immune from the decline in quality.
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 The disgusting thing is it almost seems totally coordinated by group consensus across ALL manufacturers, you see the same thing with large appliances, clothing, seems just about every consumer good is being calculated with planned obsolescence in mind. It is sinister if you ask me. But then again look at theGl0b@l!sts like the WEF and what they plan for the entire world to look like. 15 minute cities, highly controlledPoliceStates, with very limitedFreedom for the masses of people. It is disturbing.
I have a maverick hybrid and it's great, the 2022 mavericks were the first year they came out, the kinks have all been taken care of in the 2023 & 2024 mavericks
One time after a small bender consisting of one part beer 3-4 cases - one part kamikaze shots. 40. One part days two - and one part egg sandwiches 6 - the bad gas I produced could have been implemented into a new quarter mile record even though I was driving a Vega GT wagon !! if I could have used that stuff in a nitrous like injection System records would have fallen
Great, I just bought a 2023 Ford Maverick XLT Hybrid and already I got a recall notice for the dash lights dimming for no reason. I've been wondering why it sat on the lot for a year and a half and now I know, reputation. And I thought the first thing I had to do is protect the underbelly of the truck. Sitting on the lot for a year, there is the beginning of rust on the muffler and main frame bolts. I will say, It's the best handling vehicle I've ever driven. It handles like a sedan. She's quick and sturdy. Cheers!
The other day i saw a fairly new FORD EDGE...I think they are made in Oakville Ontario....that thing was blowing white smoke so bad i could hardly see it at times. I chuckled....yup its a ford.
Funny... yesterday I saw an Edge getting pulled onto a flatbed on the side of the Cross Bronx Expressway.... and right before that there was a Ford van broken down in the middle lane....
If Ford had built the motors for the Chevy Vega, the Vegas that weren't rusty would now be collector cars. Vegas were nice looking small cars. You'd probably be able to buy reproduction body parts for your Vega.
Once my lease is up for my Hyundai EV, I'll be looking at the mavericks. I feel like they'll have most of this completely sorted out and I don't blame mexico. I blame ford. Ultimately they are the ones who decide how this is all gonna be put together, and whether it's built in the USA or somewhere else, they'll only be built as well as you accept them to be.
They're Unibody' once you wreck em in accidents, they're beyond salvage. The purpose of a unibody chassis, is to save YOU at the expense of the vehicle.
Wife`s 2022 Maverick, not hybrid, is great other than an occasional computer issue. No paint issues or anything. I don’t like the ride, very choppy due to the short wheel base, i`ll stick with my Ram for comfort or my hot rod if i want a choppy stiff ride.
Hey Scotty, I hope you're doing awesome and heathy. So recently been looking for a mid sized truck and I would love to hear from expert like you, which is more reliable and would likely to last longer when it comes to engine wise. Which ever you recommend, i will buy. ☺️
A cheap American small truck that people actually want was too good to be true. TOYOTA GET YOUR A$$ IN GEAR & PRODUCE A SMALL TRUCK‼️ MAZDA YOU HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE TRUCK GAME FOR AWHILE BUT IT IS THE PERFECT TIME‼️ SKY ACTIVE AWD W/TURBO OPTION SMALL TRUCK COULD CRUSH THE COMPETITION. HONDA ?
@@harveyhankerson8359 not to mention how dangerous this is. I've followed a truck where the cat was glowing red and all the way back the pipe was red and blowing sparks out of the pipe
I thought the 4-cyl Ford Mavrick would get better MPG than my Ram 1500 6 cyl 2013, but no. I still get 23-30 MPG with my Ram with the 8-speed trans. Why would I buy a smaller truck that gets worse gas milage? I'll keep buying RAM's with 6 cyl (towing pkg), but maybe get a diesel.

The average salary of workers in mexico is 200k a year (mexican pesos) which is 11-12k dollars a year. Thats the average livable wage Ford pays in the assembly line. 490k a year which is 27-28k dollars. Thats way above average They get paid good money in their country Rent in mexico in a good area. Let say where rich people live. Is 600-800 dollars a month The median rent is 300-500 dollars. They get paid cheap in our language of money For their language of money they are making big bucks. Fyi. The minimum wage in mexico was raised from 1.50 dollar an hour to 3-5 dollar an hour. Peoplle in ford mexico get paid 8-9$ dollars an hour.
I got one the moment they came out- but I got the AWD with tow package. So far, so good. There have been a few recalls but none of them significant. ( a break controller reprogram, a replaced side curtain airbag etc ) I don’t know how long it will last. Probably not as long as my old 2004 Tacoma- but then, modern Toyotas are not lasting as long as the 04’s either. I don’t put a lot of miles on it. But frankly, when I bought it, even New it was cheaper than USED Tacomas with 80k on the clock. And it was the smaller size I preferred.

Well he’s talking about a hybrid. Huge difference from gas.
The only way I'd want a Ford Maverick if I could have my Maverick that I drove in High School in the 70s back. 😊
@@Shauma_llamaYes,I agree,they were better cars at that time!
There trying to save to much money by cutting quality on the vehicles😮
Mavericks are falling apart, 24' Tacoma's axles are breaking, cats and dogs are living together, mass hysteria.
Call Ghostbusters!😂😂😂
Keeping my 2016 forever I hope 😎
Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

I just bought a 2024 maverick, I hope mine is a good one. My 97 ranger was made in Mexico and it's alright.
people love to blame where they’re manufactured rather than bad training & cheap parts from these big companies
A friend has a maverick with 80k on it now. Ecoboost engine and he loves it. No issues. There's always lemons Scotty! Even your beloved Toyotas.
The ecoboost is indestructible the hybrid is an electrical nightmare
@@jonathonvince561the eco boost in place of a v8 was good at first too.
Lol 80k miles. That fuse is getting short.
NEVER by a hybrid from ANY manufacturer!

Same. And I own 2 that I show in my content. Scotty reads one letter and tells everyone to not buy even though his prior reviews raved about the Mav.

Tacomas made in Mexico have a big recall now, too. Welding slag on axles that causes nuts to fall off.
Man do I hate when my nuts fall off
Wow, even cars are transitioning now 😏
Watch your language, please. Scary imagery.

I'll stick to my 2003 holden Aussie ute thanks scotty. 310,000 k's and still going strong! Very few issues ever.
I wish we had more utes like Holden in Canada
So do we, they don't make them anymore.@@kfm908

My 23 is fantastic too. 800km for a full in winter, more than a 1000km in summer. Only doing local, almost no highway.
Fun fact. If someone is tailgating you, just go slower. It will piss them off.🤣

The less complex the car system is, it will last for a longer time and will need less repair. Just like manual transmission.

The one I've got now is the all-wheel drive with towing package got almost 30,000 mi on it with no problems I will say it definitely does search for gears too many options with the 10 speed I think. Was thinking about maybe going with the Ridgeline because of the wider bed made it a little difficult to put a full pallet of wood in the back with a forklift. Because the pallet sits on the wheel wells. Doesn't every company have lemons though??
I have seen at least 7 you tubers that had the transmission go out at 50k miles... I hope your's is fine
You shouldn’t have ANY glitches!!! Stop accepting CRAP.
Chrysler and Ford are mostly making lemons now though
Thomas, I own 2 Mavs I show in my videos and they are great. Unless you need more capability, I would not spend 10-20k more for another truck.
No
Are people who live in cities not Americans? Seems like you're referring to a VERY specific type of American, Scotty. There's more than just the burbs
Toyota Tacoma made in Mexico we call them Tacos
Hi Scotty, what’s up with the 2022 and 2023 Tacoma recall on bolts falling out of the rear axle ?
Thats why I drive a 1975 ford maverick. Been nearly two years since i got it, no recalls, no mechanical faults outside a couple parts needing replacment since they were 50 years old. Its amazing how one of Fords lowest quality offerings in the 70's completely overshadow their highest efforts today.
I don't like how Scotty seems to accept, at face value, anecdotes that random people email in. Maybe the guy's Maverick story is true, but some dude emailing in to Scotty with no evidence isn't what I'd call good info to go on.
Scotty you have the American flag behind you, if you are proud of that flag then buy American cars! Soport USA 🇺🇸
Didn’t this guy put out a video last year calling the Maverick the best vehicle on the road???
Only the hybrids. I love my maverick ecoboost 💪
Toyotas have problems now too......
After the cophonyvirus scam most every car made has been shite.
Bring back American Motors.............vehicles that made sense
AMC Pacer looks like a egg
I have a 2023 XL Hybrid Ford Maverick I received it March 4 2023. I have put 21462 miles on it more highway than city driving. I love it I have had no problems or issues with it at all. I have only had 2 recalls omit and they were download updates one was for emissions and I don’t remember what the other update was for. I couldn’t be happier with my Maverick
Steve, I have one of each version I show on my content and other than a couple of minor recalls, no problem.
Same here
There is a RUclipsr who took the maverick across country anf fell apart. Transmission failure and more
Only one I liked was a 74 302 2dr Canadian made maverick with air power steering power brakes and it was a good one ❤
Had one also...that car with the 302 could really move!
2021 Toyota Tundra with 22k miles, at the dealership now trying to find why it’s losing coolant
Got a Maverick here, so far no issues. Fun Truck to drive. 4k tow package, Eco Boost.
Hey but your experience wont made Scottie video, you know made in Mexico is bad unless is Toyota. lol
So far so good 😂😂😂
Continue praying for it's good service!
Wishing you luck with it. Seriously.
It's not a truck bud. If it's not BODY ON FRAME...ITS NOT A TRUCK. it's a roller skate!
Mine is a eco boost and I’ve had it about 2 yrs and it’s going great
Glad to hear.
Nice Jay. I own a Mav AWD I show in my videos from Park City and it is great too.
@@fordmaverickmaniac we just gotta change the transmission fluid on time because I saw a RUclipsr named danieldeliverz he has a eco AWD and his tranny went out at 80k because he never did that
I own 2 that I show on my videos and am very happy. The letter he read was one guy's experience. Even Mercedes has some come off the assembly line with problems.
You mean especially a Mercedes lol... they are one of the worst examples for reliability.
@zoe7657 Good point. And those cost 2-3x the Mav.
My 61 year old brother had a Vega and a Pinto when he was a kid. He’s been a mechanic for over 30 years.
Well the VEGA rusted in the showroom... seriously.
I had a Vega in Massachusetts. BAD in summer..orerheat.great in winter. Original skateboard.
I find that interesting that he was having problems with his Sonic. My brother has a 2012 with a 1.4 turbo manual transmission has well over 200,000 miles and hasn't had any problems other than some regular maintenance and I have a 2014 with a 1.8 automatic and haven't had any issues with 70,000 plus miles
You have no miles......newer chevys dont have good quality...
I have a friend with one, old with a zillion miles ..hr said nothing has ever broke. I kind of hope it would because it's a crackerbox car if i have ever seen one
Speaking of tailgating, I have a story for you.
I worked on a military installation. One morning 2 GI's were so close to me that I could see their faces and no headlights. A skunk popped up and my 80 Malibu clunked it twice. The poor skunk flipped up on the windshield and finally slid off. They passed me with the widows down and both heads were out of the windows. Carma.... I still laugh. 40mph was the speed limit. OOPS!
MIKEL
the bronco is also having problems
All new/newer vehicles are nothing but mostly plastic, soon to rust out or crack cheap steel (what there is of it) and soon to fail electronics not to mention way way overpriced throwaway junk! I will stick with my no payment older vehicles and upkeep them. Many people are gullible enough nowadays to lease this junk! Lose lose for them
I knew it was a bad sign when they recalled the first batch when they screwed holes in the gas tanks on accident and sold them anyways.
90% of US drivers tailgate. Oh, and 99% speed.
How about the Toyota recalls and the Honda recalls and Mazda major recalls you don't talk about them why
He can’t recall!🤣
That would go against the narrative
I worked in a catalytic converter factory about 10 years ago. Back then anyways: Ford was hands down the best, dodge was the worst. Literally no difference in a dodge catalytic converter and a no name cheap aftermarket replacement.
They are all good during the warranty period.
A lot of recalls for toyota lately.
Wifey's 2015 Honda Fit was made down yonder. She experienced no issues whatsoever. She traded it for a '21 CR-V. She loves it! The kid next door bought a '20 (or '21, maybe) Ford F-150 STX. The thing gave him plenty of problems, so he traded it for a '23 Tundra TRD. I dunno, but perhaps where Fords are built isn't necessarily the problem with them.
Attitudes and work ethic and occasionally poor car design.
Sourcing lowest quality parts...... poor engineering as well
@@The_Laid_Off_Life An older gent once told me his Canadian-built GM cars were twice the vehicles than those he'd had which were built in the USA. That's due to the quality of the parts.
Man when I got bad gas in my car I just open the windows 😂
Toyota are having recall from both new Tundra and Tacoma
The Maverick eco-boost ranks a 78 out of 100 that Tacoma average rank 83 no far from the Mavericks
i bought a tacoma made in mexico and it was a terrible lemon i bought a 2023 ford maverick and have had no problems with it at all so far
Really…I know a few people that’s been the opposite. They loved the maverick but after they had to wait so long they were really disappointed.
The 2024 Mavericks are made in Russia. Quality builds all of them.
In Russia, Maverick drives you. 🇷🇺
@@hellodrjeckyl MAGA!
Could you elaborate?
The engines and transmissions are built in Japan.
Just say no to to EVs
First round of model years always have the most issues. A lot of Maverick owners including myself have had no problems. 🤷🏻♂️
Right there, Scotty forgot to tell this as usual…
What's the difference: Made in Mexico by Mexicans or Made in America by Mexicans 🤣
Ford is completely lost.
Have a 23 maverick ecoboost Awd and love it, got nearly 13k miles already and one oil change. No issues yet and enjoying driving it to be honest. The amount of driving I do during the week in it should put it to a good test
The Ford Maverick, the car, was waaay better than this new truck!
Ya; some companies know what quality assurance is - Toyota; Honda, Japanese learned QA from the USA post WWII but The USA largely dumped it (see Deming) To a good degree USA brands after being burnt by the Japanese have gone back to it somewhat. Some German companies but largely missing elsewhere. What it means is you check the parts before you put them in and you spot check your final product - even tearing it apart weld by weld - to make sure they are built properly.
Ford kept telling me the same thing '' Nothing wrong just drive it''
So.......thats when you go to corperate.....
You will eat bugs and like it!
Those Mavericks are ugly little trucks. Just my opinion.
I love my Hybrid Maverick no problems at all. Averaging 40 mpg it’s enough truck for my daily commuting needs. If I need to use a work truck for towing I just drive my f350.
Had a ford a 6 years ago. My first and last ford. My first American engineered car. Never will buy them again.
That maverick had a real real weird problem with the catalytic converter glowing red.
Got a 23 , no problem with that…
Dont forget to talk about 2022 and 2023 toyota tacoma rear axle recall🤣🤣
Their ten speed transmissions have also been recalled.
I drive a 2000 Jeep xj and I’ll never let this Jeep die because it’s so easy to work on and parts are reasonable, I’ll buy another Jeep jlu once I save up enough
Scotty no tales of woe from me since I sold my Fiat and bought a Toyota
Japan ONLY … GM dumped thousands of workers salary and management !!
Last Ford I had was a2004 model.
Never Again!
My 2019 Silverado V6 was made in Mexico. 46000 miles and has been great!
BLAH BLAH TOYOTA BLAH BLAH< SCOTTY TOYOTA SIMP.
If we can get more streamlined or standardized hybrids, it'll surely outpace all strictly electric vehicles in a few years. Im interested in seeing if hydrogen-petrol hybrid engines will take off in the next 4-5 years, seems really promising out of the japanese market.
Forget about all hydrogen projects, take to much energy to produce hydrogen…even Toyota drop it .
I’m 66, and recall the days of my youth, when the big 3 were building great quality cars that were exciting and beautiful. But somehow in 1973: things began to go downhill for them, and it’s not gotten much better since.
But for some strange reason, the Japanese brand started catching on in the 70s due to the fuel crisis, and the public caught onto them because they were durable and great value for the money, and they slowly eclipsed everything built the World over.
It’s not that Americans and Europeans can’t build a Toyota. It’s they don’t care to.
I was thinking of buying a Maverick. I'm so glad I went with a 12th gen F150 instead.
I only seen the maverick around a couple times it looks fine
Definitely get in the other lane with teslas.. they’re always phantom braking. I’ve never even heard that term before but they really suck to be behind.
I bought a brand new 2022 Maverick after waiting a year to get it. I wanted the hybrid and the alto blue lariat, and that's what i got.. at first it felt cheap, but it was cheap so i didn't mind, then the issues started.. it got jammed in park, and i had a brake module failure, the dealer replaced it, then it caught fire due to an electrical issue.. then ford bought it back. I really wish i bought the ecoboost, but i didn't know it was going to be an issue, the fusion hybrid's were really good vehicles.. I had two ther fords after that, all of which were bought back from the manufacturer, now i have a used Toyota, and no more issues..
NEVER buy a hybrid. It's just logic. The more complex a vehicle is the more that can go wrong, and the more expensive it will be to repair and service. Doesn't matter which brand, just buy an ICE only vehicle from a reputable brand and you can be confident you got the best value and a reliable vehicle.
@@horseathalt7308 My wife has a rav4 hybrid, it's been 100% rock solid, as was the 340k mile prius it replaced..
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 Yes maybe so, but you paid a high premium for that version over the ICE only version so even with the little extra MPGs in that model it will take decades or more to make up the difference paid to buy it. You got lucky, most people don't get that fortunate even with Toyota, and their quality too has been quickly decreasing since the cophonyvirus came along. No car brand is immune from the decline in quality.
@@horseathalt7308 No question, the quality has reduced in the parts quality, the interior likely won't wear well..
@@rustbeltrobclassic2512 The disgusting thing is it almost seems totally coordinated by group consensus across ALL manufacturers, you see the same thing with large appliances, clothing, seems just about every consumer good is being calculated with planned obsolescence in mind. It is sinister if you ask me. But then again look at theGl0b@l!sts like the WEF and what they plan for the entire world to look like.
15 minute cities, highly controlledPoliceStates, with very limitedFreedom for the masses of people. It is disturbing.
Thanks for the warning. I was considering one. Guess I will buy a used Tacoma instead.
bro get a frointer, cheaper and better.
I have a maverick hybrid and it's great, the 2022 mavericks were the first year they came out, the kinks have all been taken care of in the 2023 & 2024 mavericks
Thanks for the update@@YoureNotThatGuyPal-
One time after a small bender consisting of one part beer 3-4 cases - one part kamikaze shots. 40. One part days two - and one part egg sandwiches 6 - the bad gas I produced could have been implemented into a new quarter mile record even though I was driving a Vega GT wagon !! if I could have used that stuff in a nitrous like injection System records would have fallen
Great, I just bought a 2023 Ford Maverick XLT Hybrid and already I got a recall notice for the dash lights dimming for no reason. I've been wondering why it sat on the lot for a year and a half and now I know, reputation. And I thought the first thing I had to do is protect the underbelly of the truck. Sitting on the lot for a year, there is the beginning of rust on the muffler and main frame bolts. I will say, It's the best handling vehicle I've ever driven. It handles like a sedan. She's quick and sturdy. Cheers!
The other day i saw a fairly new FORD EDGE...I think they are made in Oakville Ontario....that thing was blowing white smoke so bad i could hardly see it at times. I chuckled....yup its a ford.
Funny... yesterday I saw an Edge getting pulled onto a flatbed on the side of the Cross Bronx Expressway.... and right before that there was a Ford van broken down in the middle lane....
Oh my, scottie is the man!
(and he looks just like my late husband...OH what a lover! - My late hubby, not scottie!)
If Ford had built the motors for the Chevy Vega, the Vegas that weren't rusty would now be collector cars. Vegas were nice looking small cars. You'd probably be able to buy reproduction body parts for your Vega.
My 23 Mav. Eco, AWD. Luv it, no issues.
Only heard of problems on the hybrids
@TheMichaelJacksonFactChannel Nope, got a 150,000 mile warranty.
@TheMichaelJacksonFactChannel Not a problem either. Great dealership. I get a loaner.
Once my lease is up for my Hyundai EV, I'll be looking at the mavericks. I feel like they'll have most of this completely sorted out and I don't blame mexico. I blame ford. Ultimately they are the ones who decide how this is all gonna be put together, and whether it's built in the USA or somewhere else, they'll only be built as well as you accept them to be.
They're Unibody' once you wreck em in accidents, they're beyond salvage. The purpose of a unibody chassis, is to save YOU at the expense of the vehicle.
Wife`s 2022 Maverick, not hybrid, is great other than an occasional computer issue. No paint issues or anything. I don’t like the ride, very choppy due to the short wheel base, i`ll stick with my Ram for comfort or my hot rod if i want a choppy stiff ride.
how do you like the orange peel paint texture on your Ram? I'm yet to see one that doesn't look like it was painted by a beginner.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Hell with the Hybrid....I love my AWD Ecoboost!!!
I own one of each version that I show in my videos and I agree, my turbo AWD in Park City is my first choice.
Only buy JDM, Honda Toyota and you won't have a problem
Same goes for Suzuki and Mitsubishi
The GM Sonic is made in Korea by Daewoo who sold them in Australia as Holden Barina, Craptiva etc. Piles of junk !!!
Hey Scotty, I hope you're doing awesome and heathy. So recently been looking for a mid sized truck and I would love to hear from expert like you, which is more reliable and would likely to last longer when it comes to engine wise. Which ever you recommend, i will buy. ☺️
Nissan Frontier. Underrated. Naturally aspirated v6
A cheap American small truck that people actually want was too good to be true. TOYOTA GET YOUR A$$ IN GEAR & PRODUCE A SMALL TRUCK‼️ MAZDA YOU HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE TRUCK GAME FOR AWHILE BUT IT IS THE PERFECT TIME‼️ SKY ACTIVE AWD W/TURBO OPTION SMALL TRUCK COULD CRUSH THE COMPETITION. HONDA ?
Once your cat glows red it's ruined
@@harveyhankerson8359 not to mention how dangerous this is. I've followed a truck where the cat was glowing red and all the way back the pipe was red and blowing sparks out of the pipe
I thought the 4-cyl Ford Mavrick would get better MPG than my Ram 1500 6 cyl 2013, but no. I still get 23-30 MPG with my Ram with the 8-speed trans. Why would I buy a smaller truck that gets worse gas milage? I'll keep buying RAM's with 6 cyl (towing pkg), but maybe get a diesel.

I bought a 2024 Maverick XL. I love it, no issues. One thing I will say is DO NOT pay the price for the XLT or Lariat. Cheaper to upgrade yourself.
The average salary of workers in mexico is 200k a year (mexican pesos) which is 11-12k dollars a year.
Thats the average livable wage
Ford pays in the assembly line. 490k a year which is 27-28k dollars. Thats way above average
They get paid good money in their country
Rent in mexico in a good area. Let say where rich people live. Is 600-800 dollars a month
The median rent is 300-500 dollars.
They get paid cheap in our language of money
For their language of money they are making big bucks.
Fyi. The minimum wage in mexico was raised from 1.50 dollar an hour to 3-5 dollar an hour.
Peoplle in ford mexico get paid 8-9$ dollars an hour.
I got one the moment they came out- but I got the AWD with tow package. So far, so good. There have been a few recalls but none of them significant. ( a break controller reprogram, a replaced side curtain airbag etc ) I don’t know how long it will last. Probably not as long as my old 2004 Tacoma- but then, modern Toyotas are not lasting as long as the 04’s either. I don’t put a lot of miles on it. But frankly, when I bought it, even New it was cheaper than USED Tacomas with 80k on the clock. And it was the smaller size I preferred.
