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

Experienced excessive wobbling/shaking during acceleration. Ford replaced both axles at 38K miles. 30K miles later I am experiencing same issue. Replacing axles this frequent is abnormal and is an indicator that parts being used are not meeting the requirements needed for this vehicle.

The CV axle (driver's side) started to fail before 22,000 miles on my 2022 Ford Maverick. When accelerating the vehicle would violently shake back and forth. The tires are starting to wear early due to the constant movement. If the CV axle was to break I would lose power and it could damage nearby components (brakes, brake lines, cooling lines). I would be stranded on the side of the road. I did not drive it until I could get to the dealer for a repair. The dealer was very aware of the problem. There were no warning, MIL, or any indication the part was failing. The problem is quite evident on line as most of these parts start to fail before 30,000 miles.0

CV axles on front wheels defective resulting in shaking which is felt in the cabin while accelerating. If the CV axle were to fail completely could result in loss of control of the vehicle. The issue has been confirmed by the service department at the Ford dealership and is currently getting the work done to have the axles replaced. This is the second time that the CV axles have failed in this truck. The truck is 3 years old and has 65,000 mi on it. I previously had the CV axles replaced in May of 2024 The issue is not accompanied by any warning, lamps or trouble indicators. There's only a noticeable roughness or shaking inside the cabin while accelerating. I feel that Ford replaces the faulty CV axles with the same defective part and 12-15 months down the road I have to deal with replacing them again.

This issue has been going on for a few months now and is getting worse. When accelerating, usually around the 50 - 60 MPH range, the vehicle begins to shake pretty violently. We had tires balanced and the front end aligned. No change. Mechanic feels like it an axle or CV boot issue.

Transmission sensors/Software. My wife stopped at a intersection, light turned green and she went to proceed, the truck went in reverse instead of forward! She stopped it before it hit another car. This is the second time this truck has gone behaved in a dangerous way. Last time it lurched forward almost hitting a car, and then the car went into a safety mode (they 'fixed' that in a previous recall). It seems like another sensor/software malfunction

The battery (new) needs to be jumped several times a week. This happens when it goes into sleep mode. Also, the vehicle stalled twice while turning left (in electric mode). My dealership could not fix the problem, but gave me a print out in mechanic terms. I have had so many issues with this hybrid. Ford did say it qualified for the “lemon law”, but then they said no. I have only put on 5000 miles and there’s been several updates and recalls
