My 25 Outer Banks with Sasquatch has full underbody plates. What type of terrain were you on when it happened - highway, street, dirt/gravel road, off-road in a rocky area? If a normal road I've heard of gas tanks, even steel ones, punctured by small objects if enough weight, size or speed. If...
Same for me last October - courtesy car, OB w/ Sas, 900 miles, traded my 3 year old Maverick, $3,000 out the door. Works out great having a grandson as the sales person. Plus having bought 5 cars from them over the years.
I agree - on my Wrangler with factory switches the connecting wires were in the engine comparment on the passenger side near the top. Very easy to wire.
You haven't been watching all of the conspiracy videos on YouTube saying that all car companies build their cars to fail 5 minutes after the warranty expires.
I've had 33 new cars since I was 18 across almost all brands and had very few issues - 1969 muscle car burned out engine main bearings...
I guess all of those test videos on Youtube that show both the standard AWD and advanced AWD are just lying when they say they are impressed with the AWD in the Maverick/BS. They say it is not as good as a true 4WD but it is at the top of AWD capabilities. Some did mention that the tires used...
For US with those parameters - $44,230 without the tire cover (requires Sasquatch). $52,825 with the cover. Current exchange rate for $56,840 Canadian dollars is $41,871 US dollars. Curious, do you pay sales tax on vehicle purchase in Canada?
Ground clearance is a problem on any vehicle. I had a Jeep Wrangler up in the mountains on an unplowed forestry road and got high centered. But with 4LO and lockers I was finally able to back and forth a path to civilization. Same with a Blazer I had. Haven't tested the Maverick or BS yet, not...
Update to message #129
The dealer installed the last module of the recall today. It downloaded and installed with no error codes. Plugged the cable in going from the positive terminal to the battery monitor on the negative terminal. 12V and USB ports still live after turning off engine and...
What's a company to do? Half the people say cars are too expensive, quit putting in more and more stuff. Other half say cars are getting too expensive, put in more stuff.
GM is dropping Apple Carplay and possibly Android Auto. And it is too expensive and cumbersome to add every little item as an...
Because the OTA software for the recall never happened, the dealer sent out their van to do it at my house. That was Tuesday - because I don't drive much the battery was below minimum voltage for the system to download even with his van connected to my battery. Wednesday I put it on a charger...
And Sears went out of business. Anything mechanical does not have an exact breakdown time so manufacturers calculate many factors of how long to determine warranty length - likely cost and likely occurrence, public image (Rolls Royce has an unlimited mileage powertrain warranty because they are...
