2022 FORD MUSTANG MACH E Complaints

Was driving home, and all of a sudden I got a "Service Vehicle Soon" on the screen. and Got the following errors on FordPass App: 1- Powertrain Malfunction / Reduced Power 2- High-Voltage Battery Warning The time was around 8:30pm, the weather wasn't too hot not too cold. Was driving around 50 mph IIRC.

The vehicle stopped moving in the middle of travel. There was no indicator or warning. The car was towed to a service center and diagnosed that the back motor of the car was broken. Ford did not have any updates nor fixing the problem.

They Crystal of they roof is broken i Made a complaint at they Ford dealership but they denied they claim because they said something hit on they roof anda i'm sure that nothing hit

Vehicle adaptive cruise control was set at 35mph in a 35mph speed zone as I approached a stop light I tapped the breaks which should have disengaged the cruise control but instead the vehicle speed accelerated. Warning light stated cruise control was disengaged with gray line through speed indicator. I stepped on the brakes hard and the vehicle did stop and accelerator stopped. At no time was my foot on the accelerator pedal as well floor mats were not touching the pedal. Outside vehicle was clean and camera unobstructed. This just started after update 4.2.5.

On 3 occasions in the past month I have been driving down the road and, without any action from me, cruise control has turned itself on, with a speed set above the speed limit. I noticed it because the car accelerated to reach the target speed (which was an unsafe speed). I immediately braked and turned off the cruise control. The first two times it happened, I was pretty sure I had not accidentally activated cruise control by touching the button on the steering wheel. The third time, I was on a straight stretch of highway and was 100% sure I had done nothing to activate cruise control I had not used cruise control at any point from the time I turned on the car until the time this happened. I was between 10 and 15 minutes into my trip when this occurred.

After charging for the first time at a DC fast charge station to 80%, I resumed my trip and drove about 3 miles to merge onto the expressway, my screen panel said "safely stop now", with a turtle logo and battery icon coming on. my car then came to a complete stop within a few seconds in the middle of the on-ramp leaving me stranded. I repeatedly tried to turn the car on and off to see if i could get it to accelerate again but to no avail. I was stuck in the middle of the merge lane where my car would not move. After trying several attempts to rebooting, locking, turning off the car completely for 10-30 minutes, nothing worked. Although the accessory power said it was active there was no AC. After a couple of hours of waiting for a tow truck that would actually work with an EV, I locked the car again and tried to start. There were no warning lights so I tried to go to get off the expressway. After 3 miles at 70mph, the same warning lights came on and the car started to decelerate and then stopped. Luckily I was able to get over to the side of the interstate. After still waiting on tow truck for another 2 hours, lights inside the car started blinking, a loud banging sound started coming from the car and then nothing would work. Screens were black, doors were locked, windows wouldn’t roll up. No accessory power at all. It was 95° in Florida sun and I was completely stuck in the middle of nowhere at the mercy of any tow truck that would come help. It took 6 hours to get someone to come. He jumped the 12V battery and the car turned on and we loaded it onto the flatbed and took it to the dealership. Waiting now to see what is happening.

On at least 8 occasions the car unintentionally shifted into cruise control and accelerated immediately. This usually happened while driving under 30 mph and rapidly accelerated to a much higher speed, sometimes set as high as 70 mph. On 3 occasions this happened in a parking lot and 2 occasions in a bank drive thru with a vehicle only a few feet in front of me. Immediate emergency braking was required to avoid an accident with two very close calls within 1-3 feet of vehicle in front of me. This experience has been reported by numerous persons on the Mach E Forum (similarly complaining of near accidents) and the general conclusion is that the button that activates cruise control is both unnecessarily super sensitive and poorly located so that it is engaged by the lightest touch of your left palm, base of your left thumb, or another finger as you move it across the steering wheel. Please note that the form below does not allow for numerous occurrences.

Car went into deep sleep mode after 12 volt battery malfunctioned. Car was completely disabled although it was fully charged. Ford dealership I took to had no knowledge of this ever happening, had no knowledge of vehicle having a 12 v battery, and claimed to of baver heard of any vehicle going into deep sleep mode.

The cruise control is activated by the slightest touch of the button. Running the heel of your hand over the button will activate it. The button acts like a screen touch rather than a button.

As I was driving to merge onto the freeway my screen panel said “safely stop now”, with a turtle logo and battery icon coming on. my car then came to a complete stop within a few seconds in the middle of the on-ramp leaving me stranded. I repeatedly tried to turn the car on and off to see if i could get it to accelerate again but to no avail. I had no time to pull my car over since it died immediately. I had enough charge on my battery and am not sure what could have caused this. I’ve seen that mustang Mach e’s have had previous recalls with a component overheating and am not sure if this may be the reason. After about 15 minutes I attempted to turn my car on again and it started with none of the same messages appearing. This is very unsettling as this could have led to a serious incident if I were on the freeway going at full speed with a sudden car stop.
