The 2022 Ford Maverick has 28 recalls in this group, spanning fuel and engine fire risks, suspension detachment, restraints, unintended neutral shifts, battery faults, trailer braking, lighting, and camera operation. The front suspension recall carries a stop-driving instruction, making its applicability and completion an immediate verification point. NHTSA lists 150 owner complaints, which are unverified reports; electrical system leads with 42 and power train follows with 40. Repair records should address individual campaigns rather than a blanket claim that recalls were handled.
Before you buy
Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
Verify suspension recall applicability and documented completion before driving.
Request VIN-specific completion records for fire-risk and restraint recalls.
Verify battery, neutral-shift, trailer brake, lighting, and camera remedies.
Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
150 complaints filed for this model year, including 8 mentioning a crash, 4 a fire and 4 injuries. Complaints are unverified owner reports, and popular models collect more of them simply because more are on the road.
