ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I was driving back home from errands and during a stop, the entire car suddenly powered off and became unresponsive. I couldn’t even flash my hazards and was stuck in the middle of a busy intersection. Also couldn’t put it in neutral since the gear shifter is electronically powered. Some bystanders tried to jump my car, but it took 6 solid tries before they could restore power. I drove it another 1000 ft, trying to head to a service center and this time it completely powered off while in motion. I had to fight with the steering wheel to pull it to the shoulder as the power steering went out and the car started making clicking noises. The entire car was completely dead, once again. A tow truck diagnosed the battery as still healthy and suspects a deeper electrical fault with the car. It has been towed to the dealer for service under warranty, but I am reading that I am not the only one with this issue. A lot of folks are getting battery swaps and having the issue recur later. Could this be a wiring harness fault, or a much more pervasive electrical issue? The entire episode was terrifying, and I could have gotten into a major accident if this was on a busier road.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
This vehicle was purchased in 2021 with a 3 year 36k mile warranty. At 39k miles the truck has started to shut off randomly while driving. It has put us in very dangerous situations and it happens multiple times every day. The vehicle will be driving down the road and suddenly shut off. It will not switch to neutral so cannot be pulled off the road. It will not turn on for at least 20 minutes so we get stuck in the middle of the road. Sometimes it will turn back on but other times it has to be jumped. Ford is telling us that any repairs will not be covered because this brand new car is out of warranty.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I pulled my 2022 Maverick into my parking spot at work and everything went dead. I had to use my key to open my tailgate. The tow service jumped the battery and it started, however, when they went to take it off the tow truck at the Ford dealership, it had to be jump started again. I was told the battery was bad and they changed it. The vehicle worked fine for three days and on the morning of the fourth day I had difficulty starting the vehicle. The first three times I turned the key all I heard was clicking and it started on the fourth try. I then drove it straight to the dealership where it has been for the past 8 days.

Defect Description:
SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I have a 2022 Ford Maverick, 2.0 ecoboost engine, awd. I have been having brake problems since the beginning. The problem is the front brakes do not back out enough to leave a proper air gap between the brake pad and rotor when deactivating the service mode. Therefore the pads keep riding on the rotors causing glazing and grabby brakes when coming to a stop behind a vehicle. Turning off the active breaking did help with the grabby brakes when stopping behind a vehicle, but did not resolve the glazing issue. I took the truck into two dealerships and the techs. could not find a solution. the front calipers, front brake hoses and the brake master cylinder have been replaced with no success. Maybe the solution is to adjust the air gap settings somewhere in the software.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
(there is a brake system malfunction. When braking sometimes the brakes would skip and I could feel the brakes not grabbing the rotors the way they should. the problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer because the dealership could not figure out what was causing the problem with the brakes. the dealership inspected the brakes. there was no warning lamps or messages of the brake problem.) I first started to hear a intermittent rubbing noise when braking and driving slow a couple months after I purchased the vehicle. I took it the vehicle into the dealership and they could not figure out what was wrong. I was told perhaps i was to aggressive on the brakes. the problem continued so i went to another dealership and they looked at the brakes and could not figure out what was causing the noise. the rotors looked glossy (glazed) So I decided to replace the rotors and brakes at my cost because I was told the truck was out of warranty. one week after the repairs were made, I started to hear the rubbing noise again. I was furious! I couldnt believe this was happening on a brand new vehicle, especially on a ford. So I continued to drive until the rotors got so bad that the steering wheel was shaking when I braked.the rotors were warped. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and replace the brake pads and rotors using the ford manual for the 2022 maverick. This time I decided to only drive eco mode on the highway and normal mode in the city. I also turn off the active braking every time I got in the truck. I was also very careful not to be aggressive on the brakes and not to ride them when slowing down. I kept a close watch on the rotors. after two weeks of driving the rubbing noise started again and the rotors are glazed again. I do not know if its a mechanical issue with the brake calipers/master cylinder or a computer/software issue. I cannot afford to be replacing brakes and rotors every two weeks. I am greatly disappointed in ford motor company .
