2022 FORD MAVERICK Complaints

The contact owns a 2022 Ford Maverick. The contact stated that after driving the vehicle and parking, the vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was jump-started. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 36,000. The VIN was invalid.

Phone calls while connected to CarPlay do not come through car on first call. You have to press speaker on your phone twice to get it to come through. Which can lead to distraction while driving. Switching between CarPlay and radio also causes serious sound difference with one being deafening and extremely startling which can be dangerous while driving. Ford will not look into and brushes it off anytime it is mentioned to the dealership service department.

Unknown what the problem part is but the car has a water leak that turned into mold behind the glove box and passenger side carpet. Have been having issues in the car as far as coughing and eyes burning. Had it inspected once and was told there was no water leak but had an accident recently and the shop saw mold and I found it throughout the passenger side of the car.

The front cv axels prematurely wore out causing wobble while accelerating. The dealer refused to repair this under warranty. This is a safety issue. This is a design defect.

1)After sitting for 2 days the battery was drained or dead. The truck would not start. I jumped the truck and it started up. Every time I park the truck i get a warning that the battery is low and I should drive it to recharge the battery. I drive the truck but it will not recharge. 2) The check engine light comes on. I went to the auto parts and scanned for diagnostics. The scan came back as a fuel tank pressure sensor failure. 3) When I drive the truck it smells as if something is burning. 4) The fuel gage is not showing accurate reading. 5)The fuel door wont open unless I have the truck turned on and then it takes several minutes. 6) After driving on the freeway I came to a stop on the off rap before entering a main street and the truck died.

Recently, the rear passenger window went down and will not go back up. Searching the internet, this is a common problem. This is a safety issue from weather and noise as well as roadway debris if not repaired. While it is a common problem, Ford is not covering this safety issue as a recall.

Vehicle lost all power while driving. This was due to a failure of the hybrid system. Created a dangerous situation as vehicle started coasting without power in neutral.

CV joints failing. 61k miles and getting a shaking front end wheel driving. A failure could cause an accident or other safety odor for the drivers and others. I’ve seen many reports of the same failures but no recalls yet. Ford should take care of this issue.

I have a 2022 ford maverick pickup truck and have a vibration in steeling wheel at acceleration so I took it to a very reapable tire ,brake and suspension dealer who checked the brakes, tires, balance, steering joints etc and found nothing wrong and said he had no clue what it could be and no Ford Recall issued but web sites show other customers with same problem and dealers are not wanting to completely check out because of no Recall please help us!!!

Positive battery cable went out which is a $1500 repair. It appears that this is quite a common issue. Ford has previously offered a "battery cable overlay" Program 22B39 which appears to use a smaller gauge wire. Sounds like a mickey mouse fix to an issue that isn't owner related.
