2023 Ford Maverick Hybrid power train problems

“Bad CV axel causing shimmy and vibration while driving. The vibration makes the uneven tire wear, replace 4 tires around 21,000 miles. Battery getting low message all the times causing dangerous while driving.”

“Front axles are defective. Causes severe vibration under load. Dealer repaired under warranty however this is a wide spread issue and a recall should be issued. 2023 Maverick LXT 44K miles.”

“Truck started to shake when accelerating past 50 mph. The shaking would stop once the speed limit was reached and you let off the accelerator. Web search results showed 2022, 2023 & 2024 Ford Maverick hybrids are known for CV axle failures with those symptoms. Vehicle was around 48,000 miles. Dealership replaced both CV axles under the 5 year/60,000 mile warranty.”

“At around 27K miles the two front CV axles began to fail. I brought it to the Ford dealership and they confirmed that both needed to be replaced. It was a $1600 repair. There have been a lot of complaints from Ford Maverick owners who have had CV axle failures at very low miles on their vehicles. These parts typically last 100K to 150K miles and it's not unusual for them to last the lifetime of the vehicle. There is no reason both front CV axles should be failing with 27K miles on a vehicle. This should be covered by a recall.”

“Significant disruptive vibration upon acceleration at high speeds due to premature failure of front CV Axles. Confirmed failure of both axles by manufacturer at approximately 61,000 miles.”

“12 volt electrical system no power. Dealer changed battery cable wiring harness. Received vehicle back. One week later vehicle exhibited no 12 volt power. Informed that it could be the Thinkware dash cam. Which was purchased from Ford and Ford dealer installed. Now informed that it could be the dash cam itself. The dash cam was installed via the OBD port which is always powered. This will drain the 12 volt battery unless vehicle is driven for extended periods. Ford is aware of the issue but no remedy for over 3 weeks. I have told the Ford dealer to have the dash cam installed so that when the ignition is on the dash cam is also powered on and off when the ignition switch is turned off. Using this method negates the parking mode on the dash cam. Another issue is when the drivers side door is opened the interior lights do not activate. Ford notified. Problem not resolved. Low 12 volt battery issue?”
