Same thing happened to me. Full tank of gas and this isn't on remote start. I also got a bad odor yesterday morning and haven't had great mileage since. Bringing to the dealership tomorrow morning and will post info here.
Can you share more details? How cold was it? Thanks.

This was shared on a different rough idle thread. Looks like it is not just Maverick Hybrids, it is Escape Hybrids as well...


Mar 1 2022 2022 Maverick, 2020-2022 Escape – 2.5L FHEV – Idle Surge And/Or Rough Idle WithHigh Temperature In The Catalytic Convertor And Sulfur Odor In The Cab
Some 2022 Maverick and 2020-2022 Escape vehicles equipped with a 2.5L full hybrid electric vehicle (FHEV) powertrain may exhibit an idle surge and/or rough idle with high temperature in the catalytic convertor and sulfur odor in the cab. This may be due to the software installed in the powertrain control module (PCM).This condition does not affect vehicle durability and no additional diagnosis or service is required for this condition at this time. Inform customers that they can continue to drive the vehicle and engineering is currently developing a software update that is expected in the last week of March 2022. Once the softwareupdate is available, contact the customer and schedule a follow-up appointment for repair.
That sounds like pretty good news! Can this sort of software update be done OTA?
