2022 Ford Maverick

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the engine block heater could leak coolant. If this happens, the block heater could short circuit when it's plugged in. 

Safety Risk: 
A short circuit can create the risk of a fire. 

Corrective Actions: 
To reduce the safety risk, Ford advises you not to use the engine block heater until the recall repairs have been completed. Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the block heater.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, a software problem could cause the rearview camera image not to display when the transmission is shifted into reverse. Canadian regulations require the rearview image to display when the vehicle is reversing. 

Safety Risk: 
A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. This could increase the risk of a crash.  

Corrective Actions: 
Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the SYNC software.

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the recall repairs completed by a Ford dealer during recall 23S27 (Transport Canada recall no. 2023-309) may not have been done correctly. As a result, a second repair is required. 

On certain vehicles equipped with a 2.5 L HEV or PHEV engine, a manufacturing problem could lead to an engine failure. In some cases, an engine failure can create the risk of a fire.  

Safety Risk: 
An engine failure could cause a fire.  

Corrective Actions: 
Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the powertrain control module (PCM) software.

Issue:
On certain vehicles, the recall repairs completed by a Ford dealer during recall 24S24 (Transport Canada recall no. 2024-224) may not have been done correctly. As a result, a second repair is required. 

On certain vehicles, the powertrain control module (PCM) and body control module (BCM) may not detect a change in the charge level of the 12 V battery. As a result, the engine could stall. This could also cause the engine not to restart after a start-stop event and the hazard lights may not work.  
 
Safety Risk: 
A sudden loss of power to the wheels or a vehicle that doesn't restart after a start-stop event could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, hazard lamps that don't work could make the vehicle less visible and increase the risk of a crash. 
 
Corrective Actions: 
Ford will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the PCM and BCM software.
