It is not a universal fit for every Maverick powertrain or front-end package. The older Roadmaster 524470-5 is principally listed for 2022–2024 Hybrid vehicles and is not automatically interchangeable. Confirm exact model year, hybrid drivetrain, adaptive sensor configuration and trim with Roadmaster FitMaster before ordering, especially for new 2026 equipment variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoadmaster's installation instructions include significant cutting and trimming of the active air-shutter assembly. They also describe careful removal and reinstallation of a front active sensor on equipped models; incorrect handling may damage sensor operation. The kit accepts compatible motorhome-mounted Roadmaster tow bars and does not accommodate the standard Guardian (4000), StowMaster or some Tow Defender versions; the manufacturer identifies Guardian XL (4100) as the compatible shield. Use a qualified installer and the official instructions for vehicle safety system calibration and fastener torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eIt provides the vehicle-side tow bar attachment; match the exact model year and configuration in the fitment list before ordering.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eColor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eTab Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemovable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVehicle Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2025 Ford Maverick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2026 Ford Maverick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents \u0026amp; Exclusions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eIncludes Safety Cable Hooks\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePart Identification\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRoadmaster\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e524480-5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eEstimated Install Time (Hours)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Roadmaster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48380448637134,"sku":"09-0920","price":818.11,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/3785\/6462\/files\/ImageServerAPI_ccaaa5e7-e176-4604-87dc-9c3158faa274.jpg?v=1790608591","url":"https:\/\/newrvparts.com\/en-ca\/products\/roadmaster-vehicle-baseplate-for-ford-maverick-20252026-524480-5","provider":"New RV Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
