Comes on occasionally. Often followed or near the time I get the front camera blocked message.
But not sure they are related because it happens so rarely.
So
Just above the red line on the tachometer.

Looks like you just ran over a pedestrian with a cane.

From Ford AI

**Pre-Collision Assist / Forward Collision Warning Off or Unavailable** warning lamp.

**What it means:**
It illuminates when Pre-Collision Assist (including Automatic Emergency Braking) is switched off, unavailable, or temporarily degraded due to external conditions (such as mud, snow, ice, or bad weather blocking the front radar or camera sensor).

**What to do:**
1. Check that the front windshield near the rearview mirror and the front bumper/radar area are clean and clear of snow, ice, or debris.
2. In your vehicle's touchscreen, go to the **Driver Assistance** menu, select **Pre-Collision Assist**, and ensure **Automatic Emergency Braking** is switched on.

If the sensors are clean and the setting is on, but the light remains on with an information message, have your vehicle checked by an authorized Ford dealer.

You are temporarily banned from mowing down targets because the camera will not be able to capture the footage... Resume when system is ready... :crazy:

I don't think mine has ever emergency braked. The collision light has come on a few times but never felt it brake.

Is this normal for the Maverick? My wife's Infiniti hits the brakes with me at the slightest radar intrusion nearly every time I drive it.

You're obviously driving it wrong.

It's telling you gears are about to fly out at 7000 RPM or above.

Duh.

Thought everyone knew that.

The strike means "do not exceed 7k".

Good day, Cherokee

Here is the symbol (and the others found on our trucks...there are a lot!

I get the symbol when we have mud, snow/ice build up on the front sensor in the grill...also in heavy fog or snowfall.

This is from my 2025 manual.

Cheers

Andy

You'd think with the fancy infotainment screen it could actually show you in words what's going on instead of making you try to decode a hieroglyph.

Thanks buddy, that’s what I needed.
On my 2024 and now my 26 same thing on certain cold mornings.
My 26 confused me with its new useless Icon.
At least with the 2026 It resets itself rather quickly.
On my 24 I had to hit ‘Ok’ or wait a whole minute.
:’P

I remember from Ford v. Ferrari, Ken miles thought 7k was the sweet spot. We're not driving GTs it seems.
