    Owner Reported Trouble Spots

    The Reliability score is based on our latest subscriber survey of 2022 Ford Maverick owners. The owner comments describe problems respondents experienced with this vehicle.

    In-car Electronics

    Infotainment system (audio, GPS, phone), rear entertainment system, backup or other camera/sensors, head-up display.

    What Owners Say

    Apple CarPlay

    "Pooly designed and built strongly suspect chip shortages at time of building is at fault"

    Anonymous A., VA (2022 Ford Maverick XLT Unsure)
    Display screen freezes up

    "This seems to be related to the Sirius XM app only. When I use the Apple Maps app it works fine."

    Anonymous, MI (2022 Ford Maverick XLT 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)
    External music device interface (e.g., smart phone, MP3 player)

    "Even though the vehicle has Bluetooth, one either needs a cable to use Sirius XM (only the Lariat model is wireless), or an adaptor that plugs into the truck's USB port, that makes the phone wireless. I had an adaptor but it quit working after a year, so now I plug in a cable from the phone to the USB port in the truck. Since Sirius updated/changed their app on the phone, it works in the truck whenever it want to. I'll plug the phone in, select the channel on the screen, and it might work or it might not. I'll unplug the phone, plug it back in and Sirius might work or not. I'll occasionally hold down the volume and fast forward buttons on the truck's radio, to update it, and Sirius works for a while, and the Sirius screen on the truck's display might decide to freeze up and I can't change channels, and it no longer displays the song that's actually playing, but one it played three or four songs ago. So I go though the unplug, replug and sometimes it works for days, and sometimes hours. I've had seamless Bluetooth in two prior Fords, and had I known this was going to happen, I'd have purchased the Lariat model (which I really wanted anyway, but there were months long waiting lists). I love the truck otherwise, but this is annoying!"

    Anonymous, MI (2022 Ford Maverick XLT 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)

    "the device operates inconsistently and has to be reset"

    Anonymous, VA (2022 Ford Maverick XLT 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)

    Exhaust

    Muffler, pipes, catalytic converter, exhaust manifold, heat shields, leaks.

    What Owners Say

    Other/unsure

    "It's probably my error on a previous survey, but I only own one (1) Ford Maverick. I haven't been able to delete the second one in your survey."

    Anonymous, TX (2022 Ford Maverick Lariat 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)

    "The battery went totally dead no signs of decreased capability in this incident, it was dead! I had to buy a new battery on the spot or have it towed. I purchased a new battery from AAA and they installed it."

    Anonymous, NH (2022 Ford Maverick Lariat 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)

    Brakes

    Premature pad/rotor wear, pulsation or vibration, antilock system, parking brake, master cylinder, calipers, squeaking, brake failure, regenerative braking.

    What Owners Say

    Premature brake wear

    "At just over 16,000 km the rear brake pads were down to 3 and 4 thousandths of an inch of brake pad left and both rear rotors were severely scored. Everything needed to be replaced."

    Anonymous A., ON (2022 Ford Maverick Lariat 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)

    Engine Minor

    Accessory belts and pulleys, engine computer, engine mounts, engine knock or ping, fuel leaks, oil leaks.

    What Owners Say

    Other minor engine problem

    "Engine started with very high and noisy idle, such that it sounded unsafe to drive or even run for an extended period of time. This prevented me from driving to a meeting as scheduled. It happened in very cold weather and was back to normal the next time I started the vehicle. The issue did return check-engine diagnostic codes and led the dealer to replace the throttle body, which appeared to resolve the issue."

    Anonymous A., MI (2022 Ford Maverick Lariat 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)

    Paint And Trim

    Paint (fading, chalking, peeling, or cracking), loose interior or exterior trim or moldings, rust.
