Potential Consequences:
Took my maverick for the system softward update and when I drove it after the update my truck suddenly had a loss of total power while driving on the freeway at 70mph. The dashboard cluster had all the lights come on check engine, abs ect light up and I had limit power 5mph enough to get my to the side of the freeway and all of a sudden the brake engaged and the truck jolted to a stop. I took the truck back to the dealer and they uploaded the system update again and released the truck back to me and a couple of days later the same thing happened.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Driving at highway speeds, the vehicle started de-accelerating with a message on the dash saying to slow down to shift in selected gear. The vehicle did not respond to any accelerating to avoid traffic to get to the side of the road and only deaccelerated. The "D" indicator in the PRNDL was flashing as i pulled off to the side of the road. Once stopped, error messages appeared on the dash; "Hill Start Assist Not Available," "Service AdvanceTrac," "Pre-Colision Assist Not Available," and "Service Vehicle Soon." After waiting 5-7 minutes with the vehicle turned off, The vehicle was again drivable with the CEL illuminated. This issue generated two codes: U1011 - The automobile fault code U1011 indicates a problem with the Controller Area Network (CAN) communication harness, a faulty Engine Control Module (ECM), or a poor harness ground connection. The most common symptom is the Engine Light ON or Service Engine Soon Warning Light. U1028 - The automobile fault code U1028 indicates a communication issue between the vehicle’s modules. This is often accompanied by the engine light turning on. The cause of this fault code could be a faulty module, an open or shorted module harness, or a poor electrical connection in the module circuit.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Was driving on the freeway and a ton of warnings suddenly appeared on the dash. Pre-collision assist not available, stop driving now, service engine soon, powertrain malfunction, etc. The truck would not accelerate when the gas pedal was pressed and slowly slowed down. The truck would auto-accelerate (without gas pedal input) to about 20 mph unless the brake was applied (limp-mode). I pulled over, disconnected the 12V battery and reconnected which seemed to fix the problem. The dealership could not figure out the issue. I believe that the 12V battery was somehow drained to a point where it fed a low-voltage to suite of safety sensors which all went haywire.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I brought my 2022 Ford Maverick hybrid to Franklin Ford dealership on 10/2/23 for repair with battery issues I was having previously. At random times the car would not turn on from start despite the battery testing at full power. Franklin Ford installed software updates they said resolved the power issue and I drove off the lot with the car on 10/7. 15 minutes later I was driving on the highway at 70 mph and the entire dash panel lost power. I tried to accelerate and the engine had no power as well. Fortunately I was safely able to move to the break down lane and coast into a highway exit. Since the car had no power I removed the key and tried restarting which worked successfully. My engine light was on and I received about 10 engine and powertrain warnings in my Ford mobile app. This was a major and life-threatening malfunction that the dealership had no explanation for and neither did my case worker at Ford Customer Service. I had owned the car for less than 12 months at the time and it was extremely concerning knowing that the car could now shut off at a moments notice while driving. I returned the vehicle to the same Franklin Ford dealership where it received the software update that seemed to put the vehicle into failure. Their solution was to reroute the wiring harness through the engine since it was previously exposed to the wheel well and had corroded the external layer of the harness. I'm submitting this report because I have seen dozens of similar cases with the same year and model as me. As a first time customer of Ford this has been a nightmare experience.
