Engine Replacement need for my 2022 Maverick w 38K miles!

[SLINGSHOT]

Yeah, those pesky unreliable Prius models. Better to go with a Tesla or Stelantis product.

Now doubly happy we did not go hybrid w/ our 2022 order in 12/2021. At that time it was inability to get enough hybrid engines. Wonder if that brought sloppy manufacturing of the early hybrids to try to keep up.

So I can't quote the original statistic, I believe it's in Ford's official filing on the crankshaft issue, but they stated their calculations show this defect to occur in 0.12 per 1,000 vehicles. So to put it another way, 2 trucks out of 10,000, technically 1.2 but that isn't helpful so I rounded up. 12 trucks out of 100,000.

While I was the DSM for Acura, Honda would issue a campaign or extended warranty on major high cost components if we had a failure rate of about .07 to .09% per 1000 vehicles during the warranty period and even quite a ways past the end. Early 2000's TL transmissions were in the 1.2 to 1.5 % range. I paid for many out of warranty transmissions.

Most car companies do not want that sort of bad press and unhappy customers. Now back in the 80s when I 1st started my career with GM-GM's 440 transmission behind 3.8L V6s had about a 40-50k service life and they were not helping customers out. I had a few techs that could re-build 2 of those a day and the warranty flat rate was between 7.2 and 9.0 hours. Customer pay was usually double that time. No remans then. The techs were making $$$$ but it did not result in positive repurchase intent from those customers!!

Wow, I've put about 65k miles on my '22 Maverick, no engine problems yet. Only issue has been the battery drain while it was off. I must be lucky.

how are your cv axles doing?

I just had to replace the engine in my 2022 Maverick with only 38,000 miles! It was quite a shock, especially since I’ve only had it for less than a year after buying it from a friend at a great price. I had just hit the freeway when my truck went into limp mode, struggling to go over 30 mph, and I barely made it home. I ended up having to tow it 77 miles to the Ford dealership—thank you, AAA!
The dealership was really helpful, and I got my truck back sooner than I expected, thankfully without any cost to me. This is my first Ford, and with my basic warranty expired, I’m not feeling too confident about the future of my beloved truck. The dealership mentioned they hadn’t seen this engine issue before with a Maverick, but most of the ones they work on don’t have as many miles as mine. They alluded to that more trucks from earlier model years with similar issues might be on the way. I just hope this doesn’t happen to anyone else!

Has any one else experienced this? If so, with how many miles?

I have a friend with a Hybrid 2015 C-MAX 120000 MILES. Has never had any problems, and still sounds and runs great.

So was it the 2.0L ecoboost or the 2.5L hybrid engine?

I recently received a notice from Ford about my '22 Maverick Hybrid that I need to get it to the dealer because the engine could fail prematurely. Recall # 23S27 HEV block breaches.

Prior to that I've gotten notices that the engine might fail and for that they have given a 10 year 150k mile warranty on the engine long block.

Sounds like you won the engine lottery with a dud. Glad to know they put in a new engine at no charge to you.

Maybe this week I'll schedule the service at the dealer for the recall. I'm not sure what they're going to do but if they put in a new engine, that would be OK with me.

2.0L ecoboost, Ford has a separate 100,000 mile replacement warranty for a selected range of 2.7/3.0 nano engines.

Same basic hybrid system as the maverick I believe. Just like the maverick, it's a mostly reliable vehicle but we're discussing this on Internet forums. The very format that tends to push issues to the forefront.

Does this mean we cant use A comparison of the same drivetrain with the Maverick as to the reliability. It is the reason I traded my 22 ECO for my 24 hybrid because the 2015 C-MAX WAS SO RELIABLE. sorry for the mistake but thought it would help somebody else who is on the fence about the reliability of the drivetrain. And that is what it is.

My 2022 Mav Hybrid has 50k on it. I decided to keep it rather than buy the 2025 (with the $10k price hike). But I did extend the original warranty to 100K mile. You can do that if the truck is under 41k miles. Good luck.

Just got the Service Engine Soon Warning this morning. Made it back home in Limp mode.

Powertrain Malfunction/Reduced Power notice in the Ford app, and Code P1061 on my Torque App.

Made an appointment for Tuesday next week, earliest I could find.

My 2022 Hybrid has 38,700 miles and has had no issues until now, other than Deep Sleep.

The Hybrid doesn't use a Toyota engine. They both use a 2.5 cc. The Maverick uses a Mazda block and the Toyota uses a Toyota block. They both use special internals and heads to get The Atkinson cycle engine.

Same thing happened to me at 38k as well with a 2022...
