My 2016 C-Max Energi is new to me, it has 95K miles. It seems C-Max's can easily run to 150k miles and probably 200k when properly maintained. Is this true?
What are experiences out there in realm of 150K and above? Is the C-Max capable to 200k and even well above? I saw one post about 310k miles on a 2013, with a CVT replacement in between, but what about a post to cover this topic now that the vehicle is exactly 9 years since introduction into the United States in October 2012. -
I recently bought the 2016 Energi and I am pretty sure from a rather complete carfax report that the CVT has never had a fluid replacement. Is this wise even though the manual says 150K miles for a fluid replacement?
What are thoughts on that, change CVT fluid, or wait the vehicle has 94,000 miles on it today. Single owner, basic local commuter from what I could tell. It is my understanding CVT's run quite hot, and am thinking CVT fluid replacement is relatively cheap compared to a CVT replacement of x thousands.
What year used C-Max should I buy for elderly Dad

Current Consumer Reports data show reliability at 5 out of 5 only for the 2016 and 2017 model years of the C-Max. And CR does not differentiate the Energi from Hybrid in its ratings.
2015 rated the worst at 2 out 5. 2013/2014 4 out of 5. And the final year (2018) strangely rated at 3 out of 5.
CR won't report unless they have enough respondents.
