Major problems with my 22 Hybrid at 35K miles

22 hybrid, transmission? Hybrids don't have a transmission in the conventional sense. And there's no flywheel because there's no starter

Interesting comments in this thread about warranty, it makes me think people aren't actually reading. At 35K miles the owner has the full warranty as new. The warranty coverage starts dropping off at 3/36K when you have the 5/60K powertrain and an 8/100K hybrid warranty.

In terms of people selling and moving to a '24 model year, you will take a decent financial hit. My truck configured on a '24 model year is $8,000 more than what I paid - with an extended warranty.

My truck is currently sitting around 8 recalls and almost half a dozen warranty repairs. The last recall arrived just the other day and is for motors blowing prematurely. A solution is being worked on....will contact me later....yada, yada. The longest my truck has been in for service was, maybe, a day.

This is what an early adopter's tax looks like. Anyone purchasing a '22, and early, should be expecting some level of issues. This rule applies to anything, car or otherwise.

Doesn't the manufacturer warranty that comes with the truck, cover the truck tranny for 5 years/60000 milles. So no need to use the extended warranty. Right?

It is 5/60K on the powertrain and the hybrid specific components are covered for 8/100K. The eCVT should be included in the 8/100K, as it is very unique to the hybrid.

It's still a transmission. And there is a flywheel; they serve more purpose than a gear for a starter to interface with.

Not yet. Tranny is good for 50k miles. I'm ether selling it when it s fixed or getting an extended warranty

If you are speaking of manufacturer warranty on tranny: I believe it is 5 yrs/60,000 miles

The little I know is that the hybrid tranny includes gears. I think and I say think it has 2 electric motors. Is the electric motors actually technically part of the tranny? So if any of the electric motors are its inwards parts takes a dump the 5 yr/60000 miles warranty covers that?

The motors are part of the transmission. They would be considered part of the hybrid drivetrain coverage for 8yr/100k miles.

Nope , there is no transmission, nothing that has gears that change gears, there's nothing to remove. It's a ecvt, which is basically some software that manipulates the electric motors

Ford considers it a transmission. There's a planetary gearset that in concert with the starter/generator electric motors acts as a differential that allows the ratio between the input via the engine to the output of the axle shafts to be variable, ergo it is a transmission.

Loving all this, "there is NO transmission, it is an ECTV!"

Electro Continuously Variable Transmission

Hello there. Can you send over a message with your VIN and the name/location of the Ford dealer you are working with? I would like to see what I can do to assist with your Maverick's repairs.

Vin # is 3FTTW8E3XNRA60789. The dealer is Dowling Ford in Cheshire Ct. They told me the tranny won't be in until around Mar. 23rd. They said I can still drive it but really don't want to . My wife is driving it and I don't want her to get stuck. Wish I could get a loaner.

That sucks. I dont feel bad for the issues I had

My hybrid was shaking when accelerating. The dealer replaced both CV axles at 19k miles.
