Safety score
15/100
High recall-severity risk Lower recall-severity risk than 15% of vehicles we track.

The Ford Maverick scores 15 out of 100 (grade F), one of the heavier recall records among the vehicles we track. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 73% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 86% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.

Those 44 campaigns span 5 model years of the Ford Maverick. The single largest affected 4,381,878 vehicles, over electrical system. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing. Beyond recalls, you can also see the most common Maverick problems owners report and its crash-test safety ratings.

The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Ford Maverick may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.

A software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank image, or the image may remain on the display after the backing event has ended.

Risk: A rearview camera that displays a blank image can reduce the driver's view behind the vehicle. A rearview image that continues to be displayed after the vehicle is shifted out of reverse may distract the driver. Both of these situations can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72.

Common questions about Ford Maverick recalls

Does the Ford Maverick have any recalls?
Yes. NHTSA has 44 recall campaigns on record for the Ford Maverick across the 2022 to 2026 model years. The most common areas are the electrical system, power train, and exterior lighting.
How many times has the Ford Maverick been recalled?
The Ford Maverick has 44 recall campaigns from the 2022 to 2026 model years. A single campaign often covers several model years at once, so the number of recalls is not the same as the number of years affected.
What is the most serious Ford Maverick recall?
The most serious recall on record involves the electrical system, affecting 4,381,878 vehicles. Trailer lights or brakes that do not function can reduce the driver’s ability to control the trailer and decrease the trailers visibility to other road users, increasing the risk of a crash.
Which Ford Maverick model year has the most recalls?
The 2022 Ford Maverick has the most, with 28 recall campaigns on record. Older model years often pick up more recalls over time, since defects can surface years after a car is built.
How do I check if my Ford Maverick has an open recall?
Enter your 17-digit VIN on the recall check page. It returns the recalls tied to your exact vehicle straight from NHTSA. Recall repairs are free at a franchised dealer, with no expiration on most safety recalls.

Recall data comes from NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation. For how it is sourced and how the safety score is built, see the methodology and data sources. This page is a reference, not legal or safety advice.
