SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE

The defect
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022 Maverick vehicles previously repaired incorrectly under recall number 24V-730. Under certain circumstances, the Antilock Brake System (ABS) module may cause the brake lights to illuminate without the driver applying the brakes. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
What it can cause
Unintended illumination of the brake lights may confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
What the dealer does
Dealers will update the software in the ABS module, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed April 14, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25C07.
NHTSA's note
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.

The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.

Which vehicles

A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares

At 141 vehicles this is a small campaign: 65% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2022, so the oldest vehicles on it were 3 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.

Ford vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 43 times before this, most recently in October 2024 as 24V777000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.

This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 149 complaints with NHTSA, 63 of them before this campaign was filed. 2 of those name the service brakes, hydraulic, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in January 2022, 3 years before this filing.

The vehicles on this campaign carry 27 other recalls published here, the newest being: 26V340000 (suspension), 26V104000 (electrical system), 25V685000 (equipment), 25V442000 (back over prevention).

Check your own car

A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.

Filed by Ford Motor Company with NHTSA on February 28, 2025 as campaign 25V124000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
