Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
In May 2023, a recall was placed against my vehicle without a remedy. The recall is about premature engine failure and the possibility of engine combustion. The remedy was supposed to be ready by October 2023, but is not yet available. I have never gotten an update since the initial recall information. The recall says that loud engine clanking sounds are possible engine failure sounds. I hear those sounds often when shifting from gas to electric modes. I have been driving still knowing this for 6 months and am worried for my safety due to this recall and the lack of timely remedy.

Potential Consequences:
My 2022 Ford Hybrid Maverick Truck has been experiencing what is referred to as Grabby Brakes by the Maverick Truck Club (MTC) Maverick owners. At low speeds, 2-5 MPH, the brakes suddenly activate and slams the truck to a stop and passengers are thrown forward. There was and article from [XXX] that reported that there is a Technical Service Bulletin [XXXX] from Ford Motor Company that addresses the issue. I cannot validate this information. I did take the truck (2 times) down to the local dealership and was met with anything other than my concern. After mentioning the TSB [XXX] I was told that the TSB was no longer valid and the short answer was there was nothing currently on the issue and was not looking into it citing , "there was nothing from Ford". There are no indications that the vehicle is about to slam the brakes on. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
