Rough Idle After Emissions Recall Completed

[jennifer1162]

Hi all, wondering if anyone else noticed their hybrid idling a bit rougher in gasoline mode after getting the emissions recall completed. It’s not much, just noticeable compared to before. Thanks!

I haven't had mine done yet so I can't say but did you get gas since they reprogrammed it? It could be that.

Yes, its very noticeable and annoying. It feels like being stopped on a bridge, where you get bouncing from the other traffic on the bridge. The rough idle isn't consistent either. There's no pattern to the idle quirks.

I have, but at the same station I usually fill up.

Hi Jennifer! I can look into your Maverick's concern on my end. To get started, could you please send a private message over with the name/location of your local Ford dealer and your Maverick's VIN?

I had my emissions recall work done 3 weeks ago, and I did notice the rough idle, in the morning when it was cold out. At the moment my maverick hybrid is at the dealer due to a faulty manifold sensor, I'm not sure if the two have anything to do with each other. I did find it odd that a week after getting the updates the truck is now bricked, so we'll see!

Wow, that’s not good.

That's irrelevant. Your frequently used station can get bad gas. But the recall is more likely the source of the problem.
