When I shift into drive gear it hesitates to go until it kicks into the battery drive mode. When I am at a stop sign you can feel it switching over and when I go to push on the gas to go from the stop sign it doesn't go immediately until it shifts to the electric mode. When I am in a drive thru and it switching from electric to gas mode it jerks like the transmission is going to fall out

The vehicle switched to Neutral from Drive as the driver made a right turn at low speed, the weather was a little wet and rainy and about 68 degree outside.

Driving down road at 45 mph as usual. Car suddenly shudders and as I pull to a stop car is stuck in neutral. Will not receive gas. Suddenly lurches into first gear, almost making me hit who is in front of me. I pull into center lane and the car is frozen and won't move. I restart the car and it stays stuck in first gear revving high. I limp it home given I'm a few minutes away. Could have caused a serious incident.

El dia 21 de marzo del 2022 llegando a mi casa Y para ser bien especifica frente a mi casa me estaba acomodando para colocar en riversa mi guagua Y la misma SE acelero sola Y los frenos no le funcionaron, causando que me fuera por un risco. Los air bags nunca le abrieron.

Some 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrids have a faulty seal and leak oil onto transmission and clutch. I was accelerating on the HWY when engine light came on (solid). Noticed it needed more time and effort to accelerate. When parked and ran idle vehicle would suddenly jump- the rpm would shoot up sporadically for several minutes. There were no prior symbols or symptoms to this issue, and the vehicle is new. It happened exactly at 128 miles. Issue was apparent less than 12hrs of ownership. Took it to the Ford dealership which I purchased the vehicle from on Monday, I took possession Friday. The service advisor diagnosed it with transmission clutch slippage (P0811) and that the dampener (clutch?) would need to be replaced. Still waiting on them to email me the exact part number. Allegedly, a seal was loose which allowed oil to contaminate the transmission, causing slippage. This could prevent bodily harm, vehicle accident, and death. Pulling out into a busy road or merging with traffic requires a maintained speed or anticipated acceleration - this issue could prevent a driver from reaching this and result in a miscalculation or collision. I, myself, almost experienced an accident when merging off the HWY and the 2022 Ford Maverick would not accelerate. The engine light turned off after 2 hours of gentle driving in which a slippage did not occur after it was allowed to run hot long enough for the oil to burn. This gentle driving carried me through the weekend until I could drop it off Monday. It was easily recreated twice in the shop. Oil could be smelled and observed burning when the hood was propped open. These issues have been verified by the dealerships mechanics and general manager. Ford customer service acknowledged other Hybrid owners are experiencing the same issue when I contacted about parts, and this is a common defect amongst other Hybrid owners. Some required a new transmission when dampener/clutch did not solve the issue.

Since the date of purchase (10/29/21) I am unable to change/set FM stations. Apps (ie: iHeart, Spotify) and voice command work intermittently. Apps will not work unless phone is plugged in. 911 assist will not work if not paired and connected to a Bluetooth enabled and compatible cell phone (see pg. 59 2022 Maverick owner-??s manual). Unsure if lane keeping assistance is working properly. Vehicle was brought to Sam Galloway Ford on 10/30/21. Per Sam Galloway Ford: -??Ford is aware of these problems. It is a -??hardware-?? issue.-??
