Ford Motor Co. has recalled an estimated 242,669 Ford Maverick trucks from the 2022 to 2024 model years due to issues with the Body Control Module (BCM) that may lead to their taillights not lighting up.
Ford has announced two recalls in recent weeks - one due to a potential fire risk, and the other due to a potential loss of drive power.
While a recent analysis from the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety shows several SUV and pickup models have some of the lowest driver death rates, these large vehicles pose a significant danger to drivers of other vehicles.
Six small pickups recently underwent a new, more rigorous side crash test designed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, which deemed the results an “overall solid performance” for this category of vehicles.
Ford Motor Co. announced on June 8, 2021, the debut of the all-new 2022 Ford Maverick, a four-door compact pickup that comes standard with five-passenger seating and is powered by a full-hybrid powertrain. It has a projected EPA-estimated rating of 40 mpg city fuel economy.
The all-new full-hybrid 2022 Ford Maverick pickup just launched. With a targeted EPA-estimated rating of 40 mpg in the city, the compact was meant for urban driving.
Starting with an MSRP of $19,995, the all-new 2022 Ford Maverick is a compact truck with a unibody design and the first pickup in America with a standard full-hybrid powertrain.
You could say the all-new Maverick’s hybrid engine, unibody frame, and 4.5-foot bed make it a niche truck. But in the post-pandemic era of efficiencies and economics, fleets must apply a Swiss Army knife-like approach to job applications.
Analysis: With the Ford Maverick officially rolling out June 8, the wider question is can the rebirth of the compact pickup truck take the industry by storm?
Details of the all-new compact pickup will be released June 8.
