NHTSA Complaint #11593195 — 2023 FORD MAVERICK HYBRID

FOURTH INCIDENT: On [XXX] 2024, at approximately [XXX], I was traveling about 40-mph and slowing for a stop light. Just before coming to a complete stop, at about 5-mph this vehicle suddenly shifted into park on its own. At the same time numerous & various warning prompts appeared on the screen and ALL the warning signs on the instrument cluster became illuminated. As with the three (3) previous incidents, after shifting into drive and taking my foot off the brake the vehicle accelerated all on its own without my placing foot on gas pedal. Unlike previous times, additional warning prompts came up on the screen, e.g. "Hill Assist Parking Unavailable" and "Auto Hold System Fault". Also, after parking, turning vehicle off, locking doors and waiting 30+ minutes, the vehicle did not reset itself like before. Previously after sitting and not running when started it operated properly but with just the engine light on. On May 26, 2024, I had a scheduled recall for the brake lights. I asked my dealer (AutoNation Ford, Frisco (Texas)) to look at video I had taken and a possible fix under Recall 24S33, which I had found on the internet. The dealer service rep refused to look at anything and received to service this particular complaint. Instead, they sent me back onto the highway with a vehicle that can suddenly lose power and accelerate on its own, thereby creating a risk of a crash and injury or death to others or myself. 1st time [XXX], Complaint #11583215 2nd time [XXX], Complaint #11590922 3rd time [XXX], Complaint #11592069 4th, or current incident [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
