This is the 3rd of 4th time this has happened since owning this truck. While driving at freeway speeds I would lose acceleration. I would step on the gas pedal and nothing would happen. I would have to coast to the side or middle of the freeway. June 11th 2025 around 8am while doing 75 in the HOV lane I lost acceleration and had to stop in the median. After coasting to a stop I would turn off the car and wait about 30 sec then turn car back on. Then continue without furture issues. I took a video of issue but could not upload a .MOV

On April 5th, 2025 I was driving about 20-30 mph and braking down a slight hill. When I went to accelerate up the other side of the hill the vehicle would not accelerate while pushing on the throttle. There were no check engine lights or errors while the vehicle would not accelerate. I pulled over to the side of the road and turned the vehicle off. Upon restarting the vehicle it appeared to function normally and continued driving for about an hour home. I have not reported the incident to Ford or the dealer.

The vehicle is 9 month old with less than 12,000 miles. Factory battery repeatedly entered "deep sleep" mode, disabling vehicle remote features and failed to start the engine. Battery test showed sulfation and can no longer function as designed.

On 1/19/2025 I was driving on the freeway with with the cruise control on, going about 72mph. When out of nowhere my cruise control was automatically canceled, and I lost all power to my acceleration pedal. I would push down and would get no response from the engine. I had to slowly drift my car to the shoulder of the road to come to a stop. Luckily the power was still going to the brakes. I turned off my vehicle and turned it back on. After that the acceleration started working again. My vehicle only has 8600 miles.

Water inside engine. On December 18, 2024 the fist vehicle oil change attempted at 9800 miles at independent oil change vender. Upon removal of oil cap the technician noticed a milky white residue on cap as well as inside valve cover. Technician indicated that this was evidence of water inside engine. Oil change was canceled and picture of the residue on the oil cap was sent to the dealership. The dealership communicated that this was a normal issue and that there should be no concern. Oil was subsequently changed by the independent vendor.

Shortly after starting the vehicle and stopping at a stop light after driving approximately 50 yards, the vehicle jerks, feels like engine/drivetrain is shuddering, and attempts to lurch forward. To stop it I have to apply additonal pressure to the brakes. This has occurred 4 times that I detected after driving on a daily basis since 12/20/24 (when vehicle was purchased) and today 01/01/25. I have not contacted the dealership about this issue yet. There have been no warning lamps, messages or other related symptoms that I have detected.

lost acceleration function on freeway, no error code or warning sound. I didn't lose power just wasn't able to accelerate had to pull over and restart engine for the problem to go away.

I have a 2024 hybrid Maverick with 17,000 miles on. The The 12 volt battery is a known issue in the vehicle that Ford has failed to address. When I went to go start my truck the other morning the battery had failed. I hooked up a jump pack to the proper terminals under the hood so that I could start the vehicle. I was successful in starting the vehicle after that. I had every warning message pop up on the dashboard. I turn the vehicle off and try to restart a few times to no avail. I had somewhere that I had to be so I started to drive. The accelerator pedal did not register at all from zero to all the way down to the floor. The truck was accelerating on its own to about 35 mph. The brakes worked the steering worked the accelerator pedal did not register at all. I parked the vehicle to try it again three or four times each time same. Then I parked for sometime maybe an hour. I tried it and it seemed to drive just fine but with a check engine light. The vehicle through all sorts of low voltage codes. This is unacceptable and should never happen to a vehicle when jump stared. I have never seen a vehicle operate the accelerator without input from the driver and I could literally put the pedal to the floor multiple times and it did not rev up or speed up at all just continue to accelerate on its own accord to about 35 mph. Going down hills the brakes work but as soon as I let off the brakes it would accelerate again. I am very busy and I have not had time to go to the dealership with the issue. I don't have time for them to take my truck for multiple days just to tell me what I already know the 12 volt battery is no good. Now I am stuck with a need to replace a battery on a vehicle that is less than 1-year-old and less than 20,000 miles just unacceptable. They could give me another battery but from what I have read the battery fails time and time again. I also have issues trusting the vehicle now if I do have to jumpstart it.
