Something is very not right with mine.
But it gets me to work every day.
So while it's under warranty I keep shuddering to work EVERY DAY.

No recall, so I'm gonna drive it.
But fully expect a recall.
The problem is a fairly bad one.

I will start taking it to a dealer every week, if necessary once I get close to the end of the warranty period.

Hello! Send us a private message with your VIN and the name and location of your local Ford dealer. I’d be happy to see what I can do to assist with this shudder concern. Thanks!

Hey while you are at it, how about getting a recall out for the bad hybrid battery to under hood cable????

I know. My hybrid was bullt Feb. 22.. looks like just a matter of time I will be stranded somewhere

I have had my 2022 Maverick for a year now 24,000 miles . Truck is Shuddering/Shaking when ever I give it gas . I brought it in to get wheel alignment and wheels balanced. Still having same issues . Brought in in for the two recalls to have them check out shaking . Mechanic notice axle boot leaking so thought that might be causing the shudder. Waiting on part don’t think this going to fix issue if it doesn’t fix the problem going to trade in before more issue start happening. Brakes suck when inching up at a light grab real hard . TIME TO TRADE IT IN .

Mechanic notice axle boot leaking so thought that might be causing the shudder.

That’s 100% what it is but hopefully they are replacing the whole axel.

Hopefully the replacement isn’t prone to pre-mature wear.

Just a matter of time.

Mine too!! Dealer had it for a MONTH (they paid for rental the entire time) - they don't know what is wrong and did not fix. Sent me on my way. What am I supposed to do now?

is it up to the dealer for a rental or is Ford providing in case they have to keep it for a long time

I asked for and received a rental. 28 days @ the dealer - no resolution. Hybrid Lariat.

as if we don't have enough things to worry about with this hybrid! I see Ford chimes in, has anyone followed through with their offer to help and did it result in a quicker repair?

They might have helped the Dealership with the bad Dash Module, I had.
But No, they have not helped with the "Deep Sleep", the "in the back of your head problem". When will I get Stranded.
But maybe they need 3 years to solve and get back to me. They already got over 1 year in.
I do love my Truck. Best vehicle ever. Hybrid. 3/10/22 12k xlt 360

Hey there. I can look into your Maverick’s shudder concerns on my end if you’d like. Will you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership info?

How do I find a dealer with lots of hybrid expertise? If I go to a dealer that has not done beyond scheduled routine maintenance on them, this might be a complex issue for a dealer who does not see many hybrids.

I'd drive to any "hybrid" experts encircling the SF bay area.
TIA

When someone says "who's your dealer" I don't have one.
