The contact owns a 2022 Ford Maverick. The contact stated that while driving 40 MPH, the engine light turned on and off and then several unknown warning lights illuminated and the vehicle abruptly decelerated. The driver pulled over, and the vehicle was restarted. The vehicle was then driven 20 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, and it was determined the failure was caused by the calipers and a software update. The dealer informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The manufacturer was contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 122,000.

While driving, the dashboard very quickly flashed the words "Charging System Service Soon" so fast I almost couldn't read it. Normally messages remain on the screen until I acknowledge them, but this was not the case. This happened at least 3 times within 30 minutes. When I got home, I parked and turned off the car. When I needed to turn the car back on shortly after, the vehicle would not turn on. I was able to get it jump started and immediately drove it to the Ford Service Center. The tech notes indicated: "Found SSM for concern. Required some module updates. During update, the PCM bricked due to low power. Through nearly 7 hours of testing, found the soldered connection of the main battery cable from battery to battery junction box is no longer connected and has caused a short circuit through the whole harness. There was a recall that expired in 2024 that was for this exact concern. (22B39) Recommendation is to replace full wiring harness and verify all modules are programmed properly. Pending customer approval.”" This is a safety concern in the sense that the disconnected battery cable could have led to the vehicle losing power while driving. Losing the ability to control the vehicle in this manner is a serious danger to me and other drivers, and I am grateful I was not driving when it lost power due to the disconnection.

the factory installed lead acid battery is not sufficient to support the electrical hybrid system. my vehicle died and went into deep sleep mode after 1 week of ownership ( i am the original owner). I was stranded in another state and had to call Ford roadside assistance to come jump start the battery. after approximately 4 months of consistent deep sleep mode issues ( i had since carried a jump box with me to avoid being stranded after first incident) i brought veicle to the Ford dealership and their fix was to replace the factory installed battery, which was reading low voltage, with the same new motorcraft battery. the issues continued after new battery install and after several attempts with different Ford dealerships for a permanent fix, i referenced recall 25s02, i was told my vehicles vin did not fall within the recall even though my vehicle exhibited the same problem. the recall 25s02 called for the dealer to replace the factory lead acid battery with an AGM battery and perform a battery relearn. i was unable to get any Ford dealer to perform the recall on my vehicle and was forced to purchase an AGM battery and install same myself and perform a battery relearn. since installing said AGM battery I have not any deep sleep issues with the vehicle or any incidents where the vehicle needed to be jump started. I feel that my vehicle should have fallen under this recall as it exhibited the same problems as mentioned above and fixing it myself with the recalls solution (replacing lead acid with AGM battery) has fixed said issue.

On 7-2-26, my 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrid was brought to College Station Ford to receive the remedy for mandatory Safety Recall 24S59 (the federal safety agency Campaign 24V684000) regarding the frozen Rear View Camera display image. Prior to this service, the vehicle’s electrical, starting, and hybrid systems functioned flawlessly without error.Immediately following the completion of the recall service, which required a software flash of the Connected Touch Radio/Audio Control Module (ACM), the vehicle suffered a catastrophic module network failure resulting in a permanent no-start condition. The vehicle's Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and Body Control Module (BCM) have glitched into a permanent High-Voltage System Isolation Lockout loop.Independent professional laboratory load-testing has certified that the vehicle's low-voltage 12V auxiliary battery is healthy, fully charged, and completely functional. However, the vehicle can currently only be turned on by attaching an external 12V jump-pack directly to the battery system. This external voltage spike manually overrides the corrupted software communication loop, forcing the vehicle's electrical relays to close.The dealership has refused to remedy this botched recall programming, claiming the physical hybrid high-voltage lines have suddenly failed. Because a low-voltage 12V jump-pack cannot power or repair broken high-voltage traction lines, the vehicle is suffering from a software-induced safety lockout directly caused by the failed execution of Recall 24S59.This presents an active, extreme safety hazard. A hybrid powertrain suffering from un-remedied module communication failures and high-voltage isolation fault lockouts risks a sudden, unexpected, and catastrophic loss of motive power while operating at highway speeds on public roads.I am filing this report because the manufacturer's official recall remedy has introduced a dangerous, debilitating safety flaw to the vehicle's primary powertrain loop.

While driving at normal speeds. Car completely stopped working. Dashboard flashed to get to safe area. I could not shift the car neutral. Steering became stiff. The lights and infotainment was still on but the car had no power to accelerate. Had this been on the highway I would have been in a collision since my car went to the right very quick. Once car was stopped could not shift to neutral.

The contact owns a 2022 Ford Maverick. The contact stated that while her husband was driving 55-65 MPH, the vehicle shut off. The driver was unable to pull over to the side of the road. The driver was able to jumpstart the vehicle and continued driving. The contact stated that the failure recurred while pulling into a parking lot. The dealer was contacted and informed the contact that the vehicle could not be picked up due to safety concerns. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed, and determined that a new 12-Volt battery cable overlay was needed, and the current battery cable needed to be disabled. The dealer related the failure to the Ford Customer Satisfaction Program: 22B39 (2022 Maverick HEV No Start Condition), but the contact was informed that the Customer Satisfaction Program had expired. The vehicle was not repaired due to the cost. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but denied assistance. The failure mileage was 80,000.

My 2022 ford Maverick is constantly sometimes several times a day and sometimes several times a week , but since 6 weeks after purchase I have been getting powertrain fault , engine fault and hybrid battery fault alerts from my ford pass my check engine light comes on my s service wrench light comes on also and my vehicle has reduced power. As well as my battery is constantly needing to be jumped. The dealership says my Battery is fine although I’ve already replaced it twice at my exspence. I’ve had to pay for diagnostics and pcm updates supposedly to fix these problems but no resolve. My vehicle goes into reduced power while driving 75 mph up the interstate and will not excellerate causeing the vehicle to coast to a stop. After sitting a while it can be started and driven. Today I received all three faults at 10:20 am so I went to my ford.com and done a health check and it says my vehicle is healthy with no engine or power train faults. But my ford pass alerts , my dashboard warning lights , and the performance of my vehicle says otherwise. I have been put in many situations on high speed roads and my vehicle will not accelerate. Often times it is necessary to jump my battery for I can move my vehicle. These issues are a constant safety hazard to all the drivers on the road when a vehicle suddenly loses power at high speeds. After 4 years of fighting with ford for a resolve I need help. I have seen numerous recalls issued addressing these very issues but they are not issued for my vin although the data on the recall states the recall pertains to vehicles made at the hermacillo Mexico plant . Which mine was on Dec 2021. I feel like my vin somehow is being overlooked and I’m not recieving the recall for the repairs. I also believe that due to the electrical issue my truck can not retain the obd codes. I have taken my vehicle to several dealerships all telling me different resolve which I pay for and no resolve. Please help

Just picked up vehicle after having a new battery installed. Was getting pop up on dashboard every few seconds that electrical saving mode was active. Then all of a sudden the truck shut off while driving about 45 mph on a busy road. Dash said switch to neutral to start vehicle which i tried but nothing happened. Truck coasted to a stop and would not start or even shift into neutral to push it off of the road. The dashboard was flashing pretty much every warning possible including stop safety, shift system failure, parking brake , battery saver active etc. The truck continued to not start or shift. Tow truck was called and it was towed home.
