My battery will not hold a charge. This will not allow me to remote start or unlock doors. The interior lights don’t come on at night. It happens probably 10 times a month.

4 months after purchase my battery slowly went dead until I had to jump it. Taken in to Dealer 3 times before the first battery was replaced. They installed a higher CCA battery and after 2 months there are signs it is slowly being drained. In November when I first brought this in, I was told there is an SSM 53087, stating there is parasitic voltage draw when the truck is off. The fix for 2022 thru 2024 Mavericks will be coming the 1st quarter of 2025. Here we are and no fix. My dealership said don't worry about it your under warranty and there is no solution yet. But as long as you are under warranty we will replace your battery. I called Ford customer service today and there is still no fix. What happens if battery goes dead while I'm driving, it's a hybrid.

Interior lights fail to come on when opening doors on entering vehicle. Lights only come on after fumbling to locate and insert key in the ignition in the dark. What good is having interior light if it doesn't come on when you need to see how to enter and insert key. This has been happening from day 1 of receiving vehicle. I have reported it to dealer. But no action so far.

There has been a recall on this vehicle (2024 Ford Maverick) since September 2024 with no available fix. The problem is with the backup camera freezing. The 2025 Maverick seems to not have the problem, so it appears to have been addressed with the new models. Why is this recall repair taking so long?

Since October 2024, at approximately 6,000 miles, began receiving this warning message in the ford pass app: “Remote features disabled to preserve battery Your 2024 Maverick equipped with FordPass(TM) Connect has entered Deep Sleep mode to conserve battery energy. Remote features including start/stop and lock/unlock may be temporarily unavailable because your battery charge level is low. You can easily fix this yourself by going for a longer ride. Make sure to keep your air conditioning and accessories off during this drive to recharge your battery faster. If your vehicle doesn't start: - Jump start it then take it for a drive to recharge the battery - Contact your preferred dealer for further service if needed” In November the interior lights stopped working when the car door would be open with or without the truck on. No open door would register the lights to come on. I have done exactly what they say to do in the message but still, I am getting this same message and no interior lights. I plugged in a code reader into the truck to test the battery and it showed that it had an abnormal battery function. There is no recall for my truck for this issue, but there are for other vehicles. My truck needs to be included in this recall so I can have working interior lights, and a normal-functioning battery. This has been an on-going issue for roughly 4 months. The photo included over the interior light is showing you that the switch is in the proper position and the door is open but no lights. The second photo is showing the switch in the on position and no lights.

DP26007 · 2024 Ford Maverick Hybrid Intermittent Loss Of Braking

Opened Aug 24, 2026 · No close date supplied

Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Service Brakes

The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) received a petition on July 20, 2026, which was dated July 7, 2026, requesting a defect investigation into the intermittent loss of braking on Model Year (MY) 2024 Ford Maverick Hybrid vehicles. The petition alleges intermittent loss of antilock and regenerative braking associated with certain fault codes that led to a collision event. The petitioner highlights that the condition persisted through four repair attempts and over 50 days out of service. Furthermore, the petition alleges that MY 2024 was improperly excluded from related Ford brake-control software recalls. This defect petition has been opened to evaluate whether to grant or deny the petition. The petition can be reviewed at NHTSA.gov under ODI number 11751762.
