2024 FORD MAVERICK HYBRID Complaints

Repeated failures of accessory battery resulting in powertrain failures. One incident disabled the response of the accelerator. Acceleration was only achieved by releasing the brake pedal and the vehicle slowly accelerated up to approx 35 mph. Battery has been replaced/repaired by dealer 4 times already, with a 5th pending shortly. Accessing the battery to jump start the vehicle requires lifting the back seat, including detaching car seat installed in the rear of the vehicle.

On 3 separate occasions, the following problem occurred. When towing in back of Motorhome (in neutral tow mode) while making a left turn from a full stop the towed vehicle (Ford Maverick) began to shake violently. The wheels turned opposite direction causing shaking so violently that I felt the motorhome being pulled left and right like a violent wobble. I quickly slowed to a stop and then proceeded slowly forward, and the wheels straightened out and everything was OK again.

The contact owns a 2024 Ford Maverick. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact was informed by the dealer that the 12-Volt battery had been charged; however, the contact stated that the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 16,148.

I was in drive, then I put the vehicle in park, then quickly swapped to reverse while apple car play was connected, and the back up camera did not come up. After a minute the console screen went black (I have a picture) then restarted as if it had crashed.

The contact owns a 2024 Ford Maverick. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicles driving behind contact were getting too close. Upon further investigation, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V095000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 18,000.

On April 5th, 2025 I was driving about 20-30 mph and braking down a slight hill. When I went to accelerate up the other side of the hill the vehicle would not accelerate while pushing on the throttle. There were no check engine lights or errors while the vehicle would not accelerate. I pulled over to the side of the road and turned the vehicle off. Upon restarting the vehicle it appeared to function normally and continued driving for about an hour home. I have not reported the incident to Ford or the dealer.

Transmission leak that goes undetectable due to the shield underneath the vehicle, catching any leakage. Failure to detect the leak cause case the vehicle to fail to drive or not operate properly. (Vehicle has been repaired now)

The vehicle is 9 month old with less than 12,000 miles. Factory battery repeatedly entered "deep sleep" mode, disabling vehicle remote features and failed to start the engine. Battery test showed sulfation and can no longer function as designed.

My battery will not hold a charge. This will not allow me to remote start or unlock doors. The interior lights don’t come on at night. It happens probably 10 times a month.

4 months after purchase my battery slowly went dead until I had to jump it. Taken in to Dealer 3 times before the first battery was replaced. They installed a higher CCA battery and after 2 months there are signs it is slowly being drained. In November when I first brought this in, I was told there is an SSM 53087, stating there is parasitic voltage draw when the truck is off. The fix for 2022 thru 2024 Mavericks will be coming the 1st quarter of 2025. Here we are and no fix. My dealership said don't worry about it your under warranty and there is no solution yet. But as long as you are under warranty we will replace your battery. I called Ford customer service today and there is still no fix. What happens if battery goes dead while I'm driving, it's a hybrid.
