Truck stay in 12v battery deep sleep. None of my cabin lights work, ambient lighting, remote start, nor does my ford pass app work because of this issue. Its been on going since about a month after purchase. So that is two plus years of this constant issue

- Summerdale, AL, USA

Issue Description: The battery has been consistently failing. The battery has been replaced twice in 2024 already. On both occasions after replacing the battery, the new battery was drained and dead again within 48 hours. The battery totally loses power and has to be jumped off nearly daily, sometimes two and three times per day. The battery drains so low that the doors won't unlock with the key fob, no interior lighting or engine power. Safety - Vehicle constantly won't restart in rural locations with no vehicles around to jumpstart the vehicle. The Ford Service Center has inspected the vehicle on several occasions and placed the vehicle on it's diagnostic tool twice this year, but it never reveals anything that is draining the battery. There are no warning signs. These 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrids simply do not start, and FORD has no solution to these daily repetitive battery drains. Any time the engine is turned off, there is a very high probability that the truck will not restart without locating someone to hook up jumper cables and jumpstart the vehicle. There are hundreds and hundreds of online complaints about this very issue with the draining batteries on the 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrids. Yet, Ford refuses to issue a recall on the vehicles or make any efforts to resolve the outstanding issue for customers who have purchased these defective 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrid Trucks. The customers are simply stuck with defective vehicles that won't start.

CV axles make a very concerning, loud noise when driving. Any small bump on the road and it sounds like the front of my truck is going to fall off. When turning, there are loud knocking and clicking sounds coming from the front end, mainly passenger side. Electrical: My radio and head unit restarts randomly, both while driving and when the vehicle is turned off with keys removed from ignition. When it restarts, I hear a popping noise from the speakers, and the screen blacks out.

I am constantly shown "deep sleep" to conserve the battery in my FORD app on my phone. I also do not have interior lights when I open the door or unlock the vehicle after sitting several hours or overnight. I have the vehicle back to the dealer multiple times to resolve this issue and am currently waiting on a BCM replacement to be completed. There were no warning lamps or messages on the truck itself only through the FORD application and the physical lack of interior lights when opening or unlocking the vehicle.

The driver side door has cracked/broken welds near the hinge area. I have had it inspected by the dealer and confirmed the issue. There were no warning lamps however the door does flex and this area excessively, and there is an audible squeak during door opening/closing.

This morning before my drive to work, a service vehicle soon message popped up on the screen. During my drive to work the vehicle began to respond sluggishly and lose power and acceleration on the highway. My safety and the safety of others was put at risk and the vehicle was unable to maintain highway speeds. I was able to make it to work driving at reduced speeds, and after parking the vehicle received a message on my Ford App of a Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power alert. My vehicle was serviced by Ford on 06/20/2024 for a recall related to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).

My license plate light has stopped working. It was replaced and still isn-??t working. This reduces visibility and increases risk of a crash. This is in addition to the legal requirement to have an operating license plate light.

Vehicle enters "Deep Sleep" mode NEARY EVERY DAY and all 12 volt systems such as lighting are not useable. Vehicle will NOT START sometimes when Deep Sleep mode occurs. No matter how much we charge the 12v battery, this deep sleep issue will return within 1 day. Dealer has not fixed this issue after "supposedly" checking it out on a few visits to Livermore Ford Dealership. It has now been over 2 1/2 years of this problem with no fix.

vehicle suddenly lost power while travelling at freeway speeds, and decelerated to 35 mph with no speed control. All electrical systems showed warning lights, and I was suddenly driving 30 mph under traffic speeds at a freeway interchange with no escape lanes or emergency lanes for half a mile. I am a paramedic with extensive EVOC training, and I can say with my extensive experience that this was a near-fatal situation, only avoided by the attentive drivers around me, and I almost created chain collisions attempting to maneuver to the side until there was a breakdown lane accessible. Vehicle had all electrical systems in warning, and vehicle automatically set the parking break before I put it in park. I attempted to restart the vehicle several times with no success. The vehicle entered a battery mode which did not allow use of the accelerator pedal, and automatically drove the care at 30-35 mph with only breaking control to control speed. I was able to limp the vehicle off the freeway in the breakdown lane, and move it to a safe location. This event was an extreme hazard to myself and all around me, and I compliment the semi driver behind me on his quick response to the sudden deceleration of my vehicle. Note I own 2 of these vehicles, a 2022 and a 2023, and both have experienced this issue.

Front passenger seat, seat heating element malfunctioned - created a small fire and smoke produced. Dealership diagnosed as 'a couple of hot spots that burned through the cover.' It is available for inspection. Fire hazard caused burn on passenger, smoke inhalation. Smoke/fire started while driving at 55mph, resulted in sudden breaking and pulling off the road. Yes, the dealer found hot spots that caused the burning - but take no responsibility for the issue as that car has 56000 miles. No, it has only been inspected by Ford dealership. No warning lamps, no symptoms until physical burning sensation prior to the smoke/fire.

My vehicle completely shutdown while we were driving on interstate 15 doing 77 mph. When everything shut off we had no brakes and no way to put the hazards on. It-??s literally died while we were driving 77 mph.

Vehicle has had a Powertrain failure three times in a month. This causes the vehicle to look up and lose power. Dealers can not figure it out and Ford has not provided any solutions. Been without vehicle for 6 weeks at this point. Malfunction causes all systems to fault and vehicle seizes up making it undriveable.

I have a 22 hybrid maverick with ~ 27,000. I was driving back home from out of town and I had already driven for a good two and a half hours. I was passing an 18 wheeler when suddenly my whole truck turned off. The dash, infotainment screen all black. I tried to turn on the hazards but nothing came on. The steering wheel was stiff and I was pressing the brakes as hard as I could but we were barely slowing down. I coasted across the right lane and into the shoulder/grass and finally came to a stop. I turned the truck off and on and a whole bunch of warnings and lights popped up. I turned it off again and when I turned it back on it was like everything was back to normal. I drove the rest of the way home ~ 50 mph. The truck felt awkward when switching from gas to electric and shook a bit when coming to stops. I will be calling the service dept tomorrow.

I was driving on the freeway driving eastbound on 152 and I switch to the fast lane to pass a vehicle and the throttle stopped working, the truck lost speed and the truck turned off, a message popped on the screen saying that I needed to put it in park. I put it in park put the hazards on and attempt to restart it and it would crank but wouldn-??t start. I did this until the allowed amount of times reached its limit. I attempted to put the gear in neutral but the knob was stuck. The truck was at a slight angle as I was going uphill and couldn-??t get it to move. I find the release lever to make it neutral and it didn-??t work but now that lever got stuck all this is going on while the traffic is at is heaviest. The truck stalled until 2 hrs later when a tow truck came to pick it up. I got dropped off at a safe location and the truck turned on and would shift into gear but it sounded bad. Info screen says something about not being able to park and the key is stuck on the truck still.

Friday 6/7 I was driving my 2022 Ford Maverick at night and suddenly with no warning the dash went dark, there was a grinding noise and the truck completely shut down - engine, electrical, lights, everything. Luckily, I was on a residential street and was able to get it off the road because the flashers would not work. My safety was definitely put at risk - I was in a totally disabled truck on the side of the road after dark with no working lights of any kind, including emergency flashers. There were no warning lights in the truck prior to shut down, and no messages received via FordPass at that time - the Ford app actually showed all systems as "good". I had the truck towed to the Ford dealer that same night. Saturday morning 6/8 I received a message via the Ford App "Remote features disabled to preserve battery". Monday morning 6/10 I received a message via the Ford App "Service Engine Soon Warning". All while the truck is sitting in the dealer service lot. Background - Another ongoing issue - 3 times in the last month - May 3, May 8, and the morning of June 7th - I've been stranded and had to call AAA to come and jumpstart the truck - all 3 instances I was running errands, would shut the truck off to run in a store only to come out and the truck is totally dead. When it happened on May 8th, I received a warning via the Ford App "Service Engine Soon Warning" and took it into the Ford Service center on May 9th.

I got recall notices in the mail in May. Unfortunately Ford of Kirkland (WA) Could not schedule me for an update until July 25th, that is their first opening because of all the recalls. On [XXX], 2024 at [XXX] I was traveling NW on [XXX] from Yakima WA to Ellensburg WA. I was traveling about 75 mph when the car shifted itself to a lower gear, then lights started flashing all over the dash for numerous things. the monitor stated something about low gear, service engine light on, diagnostic was being run, all in a matter of seconds. As I was looking to see if I could get over the truck's collision brakes activated even though there was no one in front of me. I lurched forward while my truck was slamming on the brakes out of the blue. I managed to make it to the side of the highway and shut off the truck. If anyone had been behind me they would have slammed right into me. This would have been a high speed rear end collision and I as well as others could easily have been killed! This was needless to say, terrifying! A tow truck came and towed the truck to Valley Ford in Yakima WA, I haven't yet heard what the analysis of this total system failure was. I waited in the truck for an hour for a tow along side a very busy highway with numerous large semi's passing me less that a couple feet from the driver's side where I was seated. This should NEVER happen to anyone. Ford cannot manufacture a vehicle that is this inherently dangerous! It's just a miracle no one was right behind me or there would have been major injuries, and it would not have been my fault, or their fault. It would have been Ford's fault! These trucks need to be taken off the roads. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The Maverick unexpectedly switched to limp mode and had engine failure while in motion. The Maverick would not go over approximately 25mph unless coasting faster on a downhill. On some uphills, it struggled to maintain 10mph. Turning the vehicle off and back on again did not alleviate the issue. Approximately two months ago, I started to have a check engine light on. It took the dealership two months to get my Maverick in for service. The service finally occurred this past Monday/Tuesday (13-14 May). Ford thought they fixed the issue which they had not. They also did the current recalls on the truck. This most recent highly dangerous issue happened after those recall software updates. The FordPass Alert: "The powertrain control module has detected the engine timing chains have exceeded 95% of their useful life and requires service now. The control system invokes a symptom of limited power." This is a common issue amongst Maverick Hybrid owners and Ford is not doing anything to fix the issue. Many Maverick owners are having it happen multiple times and at speeds up to 70 or 75 mph. it is preferable that Ford be forced to take responsibility and fix the issue before people are serious injured or killed. Thank you.
