That’s not good. Sounds like a bunch of similar issues after doing the recall software updates… I will hold off on the recalls for now.

I have yet to do the signal light recall thing, and I just got this same notification about an hour ago while driving on the highway. I didn’t feel any reduction in power, it sort of felt like my AWD was active though?
I’m hoping I can get in touch with my dealer in the morning and have this sorted out.

Probably nothing major for you as you have the 2.0. The people having most of these issues are the hybrid owners..

I hope not. It’s actually a power train AWD malfunction or something like that

In looking at this thread, it appears to be affecting the year 2022 Mavericks. Correct me if I am wrong.

If you feel the events reported here in this thread compromised your safety, please use the below link to report the event to NHTSA. There seems to be a couple of the loss of power hybrid episodes reported here that may or may not have a common root cause. Believe it or not NHTSA does react when enough complaints of similar failure modes are reported. I've been involved with a couple, one while working for the OE.

Update:

I spoke with the service department today. The tech spoke with Ford, and since the Hybrid PCM and main PCM are having problems, they are going to replace the distribution module, which is the control between the two PCMs. It will take three days for the part to get here.

I'm beginning to get frustrated. This is a clear safety issue when driving, and now I'll be out of a vehicle for at least a week.

Mine is a 22, and I just received the recall powertrain update a couple weeks ago.

Is anyone with a different year model having issues?

Yes, the reprogramming fixed my issue for now. On the FB group a memeber said that the dealer replaced his part. Which they didnt replace anything on mine besides the software. I'm using Envision/Advantage Ford in Duarte. It's "close" to my home and they get Lyfts for me. Your Mav has the same issue as mine? Keep me posted on what your dealer does.
Cheers!

Do you know which part they replaced?

Close to being down three weeks for me. I’ve been told “Ford Corporate” is still trying to diagnose.

The only way Ford will learn is by costing them money. They don't understand anything else. Make sure you're well versed in your state's lemon laws.

Nop, he didn't say...

Add me to the list. My '22 Lariat Hybrid has the pcm recall performed about 4 weeks ago at 35,000 miles. The other day, at 36,700 miles, the truck's dash flashed several warnings and lights and the truck went into limp mode with a loss of power. Like others have stated, it would accelerate slowly on its own but would not go above 35mph. I pulled the diagnostic codes and showed U1011 and U1028. I cleared the codes and after the truck was powered off for 15 minutes or so, everything worked normal again. Its been 3 days and 200+ miles since the loss of power and everything is still working fine.

Hello,

I am new to this forum thing and this thread caught my attention so I created an account.

On Sunday Morning I was driving on the freeway and got what everybody else is getting,
Check engine light
Power train light (wrench)/reduced power
Brake light
pre-collision light/pre-collision unavailable
Hill assist message
Will engage in gear selected at low speed.
Pulled over, shut it off, turned it back on, put in drive and it started accelerating on its own but only up to about 20mph, stopped and shut it off again. Turned back on and all the messages and light disappeared except check engine light remained on. Drove home and parked it. Monday after work, got in it all light were gone, talked with dealer and they said bring it in saw a bunch of codes. Drove it there and didn't have any issues. I am scared to take on the highway to work which I do everyday. It did have the recent software update regarding the emissions control system and something about brake lights. . That was done around 36650 miles and this new issue came up around 36880 miles.

Dealer will not get to it for another couple of days. Will see what happens.

Hello, today I had the exact same issue with my '23 XLT hybrid. Thankfully I was not going very fast but the truck suddenly slowed down like someone had just slammed gear shift into low. It would not accelerate when pressing the accelerator pedal but when I let off it seemed to take off on its own. Thankfully I was only about a mile from my home and was able to Coast home with it accelerating on its own. This seems like a serious safety issue. I had Ford roadside assistance send a tow truck and it's currently sitting at a Ford dealer waiting for a diagnosis tomorrow. I just hit 18,000 miles, had the blinker recall done about a month ago.

Welcome to the club! Mines been at the dealer for about a month because of this. They say Ford engineers are trying come up with a new program for the Powertrain module. Yes this is a safety issue for sure. It all started for me after a bunch of recalls were done. I speculate its recall #23E09 for my 2022 maverick hybrid that is the cause.
