What's wrong, in plain English
Ford is recalling certain Maverick trucks that already received an earlier recall repair. In these trucks, the body and powertrain control modules may fail to detect when the 12-volt battery's charge is getting low. Because the low battery isn't detected, the truck could suddenly lose power to electrical accessories such as hazard lights, or lose the power needed to keep driving.

2. Contact a Ford dealer to schedule the repair; you can also call Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.
