SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
"GRABBY" BRAKES. At low speeds, approximately 5-10mph, when I gently apply the brakes, the brakes suddenly and without warning catch or "lock up" as if slamming on the brakes. It's a jolting experience and can be dangerous if another vehicle is following close behind and my brakes lock up for no apparent reason. There are no warning lamps or messages. This braking malfunction began the first day I took delivery.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
My vehicle died on my driveway. I have no power, no lights, cant open my locked trunk. Checked voltage on the battery. It shows 12.6V (normal, so no need to jump start). Checked the same thing on the other side of the main harness (in the engine compartment). It shows zero. Something is wrong with the main harness. Towed it to the closest dealership. They confirmed. One of the contacts on the harness broke. Luckily I was on my driveway already. What if this issue would happen when I was driving on the highway and my family were with me. Dealership ordered harness replacement (its impossible to fix this one). So in a couple of weeks/month it will arrive and they will replace it. But I'm not confident in my truck any more. Bad cheap harness is the main cause of this issue. Ford decided to use cheap component. And this is the common issue for Maverick Hybrid. Lots of people reported it. We need new recall

I got a letter from FORD about a 22C20 Recall of the side curtain airbag. January 2023 And I got a letter in the mail from Ford May 24 2023 and it says your 22C20 recall part is ready. I got an appointment from ford frontier June 1 2023 and when the dealer Service Advisor Jesus Labrada told me sorry, we don’t have a part for airbags. He told me the left side and right-side airbags need to be changed and we have just one side. He doesn’t take my car, he told me please call every 10 days to ask if we have a part or not. June 7 2023 I emailed Michael Marshall about the 22C 20 recall part. Do you have it and I got back to me and he said No part for recall yet. June 2023, I got another letter from Ford and Customer Satisfaction Program 22B39 about the vehicle, it may be possible a 12V battery connection may become loose, resulting in a no- start condition. June 2023, I got another letter from Ford about 23S27 on your vehicle, the engine could fail prematurely, in the event of an engine failure. And the letter says part may be available October 2023. Right now, I am not using this car, it’s just sitting in my driveway. It’s not safe for me, if engine fails and if I crash airbags are not working, I don’t want to make a risk to get me or someone else in the car to get a injury or die. I would like to return this Ford Maverick Truck for a full refund.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
* Grabby brakes at low speed and light braking. * it makes slow speed braking unpredictable. You push on the brakes and get very little braking, add more brakes and still very little braking, add more pressure and then suddenly you get extreme braking like slamming on the brakes. Brakes are not progressive at low speed. * Yes I've taken it to the ford dealer (Team Ford Lincoln in Las Vegas) at least 3 times for unrelated issues and every time I complain about the unpredictable braking and every time they claim they can't reproduce the issue. The Last time I even email them the ford service bulletin 22-2493 which talks about the Exhaust Gas Recirculation sensor and they say this sensor can contribute to brake grab. But even after they replaced the EGR sensor I still have gotten low speed brake grab. * I have over 30,000 miles on the truck now and the low speed brake grab has remained exactly the same since I bought it new. It happens probably once a week. Some additional info. Video about the issue. https://youtu.be/Fy7DRygWvG0 Forum post talking about the issue. https://www.mavericktruckclub.com/forum/threads/tsb-22-2493-issued-for-2-5l-hybrid-maverick-grabby-brakes-at-or-below-6-2-mph.24977/ Ford need to address this issue because the inconsistent brakes in parking lot speeds is a serious problem that needs to be acknowledged and fixed.
