2024 Ford Maverick owner complaints

I have the latest software update as of June 2025, recently when I shifted from reverse to Drive, the display stuck in backup camera picture. I have to put it back to Park and try again to drive and get to driving map display screen.

The contact owns a 2024 Ford Maverick. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V684000 (Back Over Prevention); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

Battery is constantly dead and truck loses power. Goes into BATTERY SAVER MODE. Had the battery replaced twice by Ford. Many other owners report the same problem.

There is a no sale recall on the back up camera due to freezing but we were sold the vehicle by Freeway Ford in Bloomington, MN. Due to the backup camera freezing there is inability to see directly behind the vehicle only through side mirrors and rear view mirror. The problem was confirmed by the manufacturer and the dealer via phone after selling the vehicle. The specific vehicle has not been inspected but is on a stop sale recall list. No warning or anything.

There is lots of people having trouble with there dash popping I believe due to how the windshield is attached.

The vehicle shakes excessively on acceleration. Very noticeable when accelerating going uphill.

Front CV axles began failing at around 20,000 miles. The truck shakes when accelerating at all speeds but especially at 40-50mph or under load.

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.

Wife was traveling from work to home when vehicle shut down in the middle of the roadway. Vehicle locked transmission into park. Tow truck driver nor Ford representatives via customer care could provide a means to release the parked truck. Fortunately wife suffered no injuries nor was she rear ended when truck decided to stop running and park. Dealership stated they could see error messages not shared with customer. Dealership could not tell us why vehicle shut down on its own in the middle of the roadway

*front cv axle. Both sides, yes inspection available and ford inspection report available. *unsafe to drive. When accelerating above 40 truck shakes badly. *yes problem confirmed by dealership. *has been inspected by dealers mechanic. *no warning lights, noticed at 50k miles, no warnings. I drive a lot of miles but freeway driving mainly, east to west in l.a. I heard from dealer rep that they are seeing this a lot. To the point he diagnosed the issue before the inspection and was correct.

The vehicle began wobbling when accelerating, but no warning lights came on. Self inspection found the CV boot was leaking grease. The dealership confirmed damage to the CV joint and required replacement of the front axle.

I am having trouble with the gas pedal. When you push the gas petal it makes a sound under neath the Hood. The car does want to move and when I push the gas pedal again it sounds real bad. There is something wrong. Also when you push the button to lock and unlock it makes a sound. So I took it to Freedom Ford in Wise Virginia. They took it back and about an hour this woman that works back there. She told me that the man that looked at it said that he didn’t know what was wrong with it. He said that he would have to get Someone that was an Engineer to help him. The Manager order this vehicle for me on line and put what I wanted on it. Some things wasn’t put on there. So he told me that it would take up to a year and I said that would be ok. Well, I order it toward the end of October 2023

The engine has had counts of misfire in all 4 cylinders, since 1 week after I bought this brand-new pickup truck. The misfire counts are getting more and more, although there is NOT any warning codes, nor loss of power.

As I’m driving my lane assistant sometimes not picking up the lines and as I’m a little bit of a distance away, it’ll say that I’m over the line. I’m not near.

In reducing the truck's speed, there is a sharp-pitched, loud, one-click sound , when I turn the steering to the right hand side. (This sound seems to come from the driver's left side, between the front door and the rear door.) It happens very often, but not every time.

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 star

windshield washer system inoperative, no fluid out of nozzles. This is an FMVSS safety system. Dealer repaired restricted washer hose leading to washer jets.

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

Water is leaking into the passenger compartment after rain storms and accumulating in the carpet of the front passenger footwell causing mold.

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
