  Unknown, My 2024 Ford Maverick has now twice got stuck in reverse (shifter indicates it is in reverse) though the dash shows park and I was unable to start the truck after removing my key and waiting a few moments it would act normal and let me start my truck. The last time it happened I was in the dealer lot and told my sales representative but we couldn’t replicate the problem he said next time it happens to record it and see if it becomes a trend that it would be covered under warranty but until it is replicable they could not do anything I don’t know when or why it happens. I just wanted to report it because I’m not sure if it’s only happening to me or if it is effecting others as well.

  On [XXX] I bought new 2024 Ford Maverick XLT Tremor AWD Ecoboost Engine with an 8-SPD Auto Transmission. On [XXX] I experienced a safety failure on this vehicle that put my son and I in a very dangerous situation. While driving on a busy avenue, I stop on a traffic light and I had the vehicle on "Drive" with the brake pressed. When the traffic light turned green I proceeded normally switching from pressing the brake to pressing the gas pedal and it suddenly acted as if it was in "Neutro". The vehicle was on “drive” mode but acted as it was in “neutral”. It didn’t want to move forward. This created a very dangerous situation on this busy avenue. I was stop in the middle of the road. I immediately manually moved the gear to “Parking" and then back to "Drive" and at this time the vehicle started moving normally again. I reported the incident to the dealer where I bought the car (Sheehy Ford of Warrenton) and they stated to me the following: “I do not find any diagnostic trouble codes stored through connected vehicle communication and did not see any relevant technical service bulletins or special service messages published that match your symptoms. I would be happy to set up a time for a diagnostic, or if you'd prefer to wait and see if it happens again just know we're here for you either way”. I responded that I will wait to see if it does it again. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

  Upon exiting my garage I always stop to close the door. My driveway has incline. I begin to roll back, hit the breaks several times with no engagement, begin pumping the brake pedal several times, no response. Continued to roll in reverse going across the street and hit neighbor's park car in their driveway. Police Officer noted that brake pedal was very low upon applying brakes and a hiss sound of like a vacuum or pressure lost. Reported a claim to insurance company. I never observed any indication of faults. Had truck toed to Greiner Ford to be inspected and or repaired. They said they could not find anything wrong with brake system or electronics. Since the incident I have reviewed by Ring camera video of that day and noticed that the DRL lights were flashing like a turn signal light which are not supposed to do. Truck is presently at Greiner Ford Collision Center for repair of damage to drive side rearend. I will have Greiner reinspect once collision damage is repaired and advise them of the flashing DRL's Other problems encountered prior to this incident: 1. Several times with adaptative cruise on and lane departure on there has been several notifications of cancelations were noted. 2. Several times horn has sounded when opening door with truck turned off. 3. Pre collision notification without anything in front of truck.

• 08/31/2024· SERVICE BRAKES

  New 2024 Ford Maverick. 12,000 miles. At around 10K miles, a factory recall regarding the firmware driving the brake light system was performed. This has 'broken' the factory installed trailer braking system that applies braking to an attached trailer with electric brakes. This is very dangerous, since failed trailer braking can cause a severe accident. The factory system shows alerts on the dash: when a trailer is electrically connected to the truck, the system responds with "Trailer connected". And now, that same message appears, but as soon as you apply brakes, either physically or by the factory system, an alert says, "Trailer disconnected". This never happened before the recall was performed. Also, If you connect the trailer and the system says "trailer connected", if you adjust the braking 'gain' in the cab of the truck, the system says "no trailer", and yet the other alert says "trailer connected". This is a computer firmware fault. This has been recorded by other owners online.

  Twice in the last two months the vehicle completely lost the ability to accelerate while driving. While the vehicle was in motion, the accelerator lost all tension and you could put your foot the floor without the vehicle moving. The vehicle still had all other power, including power steering, stereo, lights and power breaks. The first incident occurred last month at low speed in a residential area. The vehicle was able to coast to the sidewalk in front of house. A few minutes later the vehicle started up without issue and was able to be driven home. Afterwards, the vehicle was taken to a local repair show who checked the battery and alternator, but they did not find any issue. Earlier today, the vehicle was being driven at 45-50 miles per hour on a two lane highway without a shoulder. The vehicle started to decelerate while the driver, my daughter, pushed the gas pedal to the floor. The vehicle would not respond and she was luckily able to pull into the driveway of a home. The vehicle did not produce any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms prior to this loss in acceleration. I arrived 4-5 minutes later and the vehicle was able to be driven to home afterwards. We will be taking in to a dealership for a more thorough look at any issues. We would be willing to have the vehicle inspected. This is an astonishing issue to have on a vehicle less than two years old. The loss of power on a freeway could be incredibly dangerous we both the driver of this truck and to other drivers. We live in a hilly area and a safe place to pull off to the side cannot be always guaranteed. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear?

  6-18-25, driving at 20 mph in my neighborhood, applied brakes and pedal sank to the floor with no pressure. Pumped approximately six times with no pressure. On the last pump, I got severe juddering through the truck ( felt similar to an ABS activation) still no pedal pressure, but it did stop. Upon shutdown and restart, pedal was back to normal. Obvious safety issue as it would have caused a collision had I been on anything other than a quiet street. There were no warning lights on the dash and no fluid leaks. This is a new truck with 470 miles on it. Vehicle is currently at a Ford dealership. As of this writing no diagnosis.

  While driving my 2024 Ford Maverick on a highway at approximately 65 mph, the vehicle suddenly lost power to the front wheels while passing a slower-moving vehicle. This caused the truck to jerk and decelerate rapidly in the oncoming lane, forcing me to veer back into my original lane abruptly. In doing so, I narrowly avoided a head-on collision, but the sudden maneuver caused the driver behind me to swerve off the road to avoid a rear-end collision. As a result, that vehicle went into a ditch and struck a small embankment. Three people inside suffered injuries, one with a fractured wrist, another with whiplash, and the third sustained a concussion from the impact. Emergency crews responded to the scene, and all injured individuals were transported to the hospital for evaluation. Despite the severity of the incident, there was no physical damage to my Maverick, as I was able to regain control and come to a stop safely on the shoulder. The cause was later determined to be a failure of the front driver-side CV axle and associated drivetrain components. Ford service technicians confirmed the mechanical failure after inspection. There were no warning lights, dashboard alerts, or fault codes prior to the failure. Intermittent clicking sounds during acceleration and turns had been occurring since around 3,500 miles, but the dealership initially dismissed them as normal. The full failure occurred at approximately 4,200 miles. Ford has not issued a recall or technical service bulletin related to this, though the dealer acknowledged similar reports from other Maverick owners. The failed parts remain in possession of the dealership and are available for further inspection.

• 05/02/2026· VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

  I have a Maverick (24 AWD XLT) and this issue has occurred twice. It happened on my vehicle the first time as I was trying to turn left, up an incline, with oncoming traffic - loss of acceleration. There was simultaneously a service light and power train malfunction message that went to my ford app. The vehicle had 5k miles on it. I took it immediate to the dealer. After testing they said the connection at the accelerator was loose (pigtail) and replaced. I just had the same failure occur yesterday (~22k miles) on my way home from work, except I lost acceleration on an inclined on-ramp trying to merge onto the highway. I had just slowed on the ramp to let a semi pass, and am thankful I didn’t try to get ahead of it. It wouldn’t have ended well. Still, I could see traffic jamming behind me, and folks were struggling to get on the highway because of my significantly reduced speed. Losing control of acceleration at a point where it is critical is very dangerous. I’ve never experienced a vehicle failure that felt like it risked my life. For this to occur twice in key moments of acceleration, with less than 25k miles is unsettling. Online there are many similar reports, not sure how this isn’t a recall yet.

  Ford provides a spare tire with their 2024 Maverick pickup truck, but does not provide a safe way to transport a damaged tire after performing a tire change. Ford's Owner's Manual for the Maverick shows on page 363 how the damaged tire is to be secured in the bed of the truck using the provided strap tied diagonally to one of the D-rings at the front of the bed and one of the cleats at the rear. Both tie down points for the strap are low enough in the bed to create a vertical force on the damaged tire and hold it down on the bed. Ford has not equipped the base model, known as Maverick XL, with the two D-rings shown in the manual. The only alternative tie down point at the front corners is a pair of cleats that are too high on the bed wall to put a vertical force on the tire. (These other cleats are shown in their Flex Bed diagram.) If attempted, the tire would be held down only by gravity and likely become a dangerous projectile. It would also be inadvisable to stow the damaged tire under the truck bed taking the place where the spare had been stored. If attempted, a damaged tire could have treads or steel cords hanging from it, which could either come in contact with a hot exhaust system or the cords could drag on the road and potentially spark a wildfire the way tow chains sometimes do. Ford's engineers have, in my opinion, designated in its Maverick Owner's Manual the only safe way to stow a damaged tire after using the Maverick's spare tire for an emergency tire change. Ford has provided the strap to secure the tire, but has not equipped all trim levels of the Maverick with the D-rings. Ford needs to provide Maverick XL owners with the two missing D-rings as well as the fasteners to mount them on the truck bed. It may also need to provide the correct size tapping tool if the existing holes were not threaded at the factory. This would remedy the inability to safely carry a damaged tire and also align with Owner's Manual instructions.

  Reverse image is freezing, even after the truck’s recall was addressed by a local Ford dealership. This is a safety issue and could potentially cost a life if someone is backing up and the reverse image freezes.

• 04/23/2025· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

  My reverse camera was having intermittent issues consistent with the recall notice where it would freeze and not show a true representation of what was behind the vehicle while in reverse. I had the recall repair work done by my local dealer for the reverse camera and the problem has not been fully resolved. The framerate on the reverse camera is still inconsistent, and the problem has not been fixed entirely. It does not give me confidence that the screen will not freeze again in the future. It appears that the software update put out by Ford does not solve the problem, in my case it made the problem appear differently, but it did not resolve the safety issue. Every time I reverse in my truck, it puts my and others safety in jeopardy. If the reverse camera ever freezes, there is no indication that it has done so. This is problematic if I were in reverse while not moving, and the camera froze with a clear path behind me. If a pedestrian, cyclist, or other vehicle moved into the path of my vehicle while the screen remained frozen and I began to reverse, it is likely that I could back into them without any indication they were there. This is worse than having no reverse camera, as it gives a false sense of security that it is safe to proceed when it may not actually be. It appears that Ford has attempted to solve a hardware issue with a software patch that is insufficient to fix the issue with the freezing reverse camera image, though the true cause is unknown to me. It is unacceptable that after having the problem 'fixed' by an approved dealer the reverse camera is still not acting properly.

  This is a supplemental filing to my existing NHTSA complaint #11715308. I am requesting that the Office of Defects Investigation open a formal Preliminary Evaluation into the 2024 Ford Maverick Hybrid braking system. Since my original complaint, the following has occurred: Ford Motor Company denied my claim on April 2, 2026 through a three-sentence letter from a paralegal at Erskine Law PC in Michigan. The denial addressed none of the evidence submitted including repair orders, fault codes from Ford's own OASIS system, a recorded call proving warranty claim suppression, and a notarized sworn statement. The vehicle now has 107,982 miles. The ABS defect remains unrepaired after four attempts and over 50 days out of service. Active fault codes C052E and U0418 were confirmed in Ford's OASIS system when the vehicle was returned unrepaired on January 28, 2026. Ford has already issued Recall 25V787000 for brake booster ECU overheating causing loss of brake power assist in Maverick vehicles, demonstrating prior corporate knowledge of braking defects in this model line. There are currently 149 brake-related complaints in the NHTSA database for the 2024 Ford Maverick with no open ODI investigation. On [XXX], the braking defect caused a collision (APD Crash Report [XXX], no driver error assigned). I have a notarized sworn statement linking the collision to the unrepaired defect. I have concurrent active complaints with the NM Department of Justice (XXX), BBB AUTO LINE (XXX), FTC (#XXX), CFPB (#XXX), and Ford's internal SpeakUp ethics program (#XXX). I am formally requesting ODI review of the 2024 Maverick Hybrid braking system given the volume of complaints, the existing recall on related models, and Ford's documented refusal to repair my vehicle despite confirmed fault codes in their own diagnostic system.

  I am reporting a recurring safety-critical failure. On two separate occasions, the vehicle has experienced a total electrical and mechanical shutdown while in operation. During these events, the 12V power system fails completely, turning off all instrumentation and, most critically, the electronic power brake assist. This results in a 'hard pedal' condition where the vehicle is nearly impossible to stop without extreme physical force. The first instance occurred at road speeds, forcing an emergency maneuver into a turning lane to avoid traffic. The second instance occurred while reversing, causing the vehicle to lose all braking and propulsion and roll into a busy road resulting in a near-miss collision. The vehicle is currently unsafe to drive as the shutdowns are intermittent and occur without warning.
