New England Mavericks

Hello New England Mavericks -
I have a 2022 AWD XL in black, which I bought last year used from a good Ford dealer I've dealt with for years - they took it back on a trade-up, so I started with 6K miles; now almost 20K. Just a daily driver so far, no modifications, and stock silver metal rims and tires. So far I'm pleased, but not 'in love with it'.

Oh, yeah -- New Hampshire, near Lake Sunapee (25 miles west of Concord)

I commute in to work 50 miles away, at least 3 days a week. 2-liter turbo with AWD is really nice for NH. I haven't had a passenger in it, yet.
I've found I use 'Tow Mode' most of the time for reasonably good engine-braking.
Mine has some kind of issue in that it 'stumbles' on mild acceleration, or when trying to maintain speed in slightly-varying traffic through our slowly-winding roads, but one dealer service visit for this 'didnt' find any codes or anything', so no update on that. Zif it's fuel-starved or something; and this is exascerbated when using Sport or Tow modes, but it's very plain (and annoying) to me. Anyone else have anything like this?
It's reliable for my traveling, but I don't have time to troubleshoot / babysit this issue, and too far from the dealer to just drop it off and let them figure it out... and my new house is my primary time-suck for any projects. This can wait for a bit, and I hope to come across a solution for this - but I am reminded of this, all the time.

Did they take it for a test drive? Putting it on a scan tool only doesn't mean no issue just cause it didn't throw a code.
If you have a repair shop closer with a good reputation bring it to them see what they have to say.
I've had a Subaru dealer tell me nothings wrong just because they didn't want to do the warranty repair.
