    Ford Maverick Hybrid Pickup Trucks Recalled to Fix Warning Lights

    If safety-related warning lights don’t display, the vehicles no longer meet federal motor vehicle safety standards

    Ford is recalling nearly 63,000 Maverick Hybrid pickup trucks from the 2022 and 2023 model years because their instrument panels may not properly display some warning lights and gauges. As a result, these vehicles are not in compliance with federal regulations that require vehicles to have certain safety-related displays.

    The problem is caused by a software issue. To fix it, Ford dealerships will perform a software update free of charge.

    According to documents Ford provided to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there have been 165 warranty claims related to this problem.

    Ford Maverick Display Recall Details

    Vehicles recalled: Certain Ford Maverick Hybrid pickup trucks manufactured between Feb. 3, 2021, and Oct. 20, 2023.

    The problem: Faulty software means that certain warning lights or gauges may not display on the vehicle’s instrument panel. As such, the vehicles do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 101, 102, 105, 108, and 208.

    The fix: Ford dealerships will perform a software update free of charge.

    How to contact the manufacturer: Owners may call Ford at 866-436-7332.

    NHTSA campaign number: 24V140. Ford’s own code for this recall is 24C01.

    Check to see whether your vehicle has an open recall. NHTSA’s website will tell you whether your vehicle has any open recalls that need to be addressed.

    If you plug your car’s 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN) into NHTSA’s website and a recall doesn’t appear, it means your vehicle doesn’t currently have one. Because automakers issue recalls often, and for many older vehicles, we recommend checking back regularly.
