2022 Ford Maverick Recall 24V590: Battery Detection

Recall 24V590 affects 757 2022 Ford Maverick trucks for control modules that miss low battery charge. Repair is free at any franchised Ford dealer.

Ford is recalling 757 2022 Maverick vehicles under recall 24V590 because the body and power train control modules can fail to detect changes in the 12-volt battery charge after earlier recall work. An undetected low charge can shut off electrical accessories such as hazard lights or cause loss of drive power, and Ford dealers will complete the recall repair free of charge.

What's wrong?

The 2022 Ford Maverick uses control module software to watch the 12-volt battery and manage how the truck responds as the battery charge changes. The body control module handles electrical body functions, while the powertrain control module helps manage engine and drivetrain operation. Both need the correct calibration to read battery state of charge properly.

On affected Mavericks, the earlier recall repair under 24V-267 was incomplete for certain powertrain variants. The intended powertrain control module update was not released to dealers for those trucks, so the software left in place does not detect a change in the 12-volt battery state of charge the way the recall remedy was meant to.

There is no warning sign before failure. Because the problem is in the module calibration, an owner is not given a clear sound, smell, light, or driving feel that confirms the software is wrong before the condition occurs.

Who's affected?

Both component labels point to the same powertrain control module calibration.

What's the safety risk?

An undetected low battery charge can shut off electrical accessories, including hazard lights, or cause loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash. If the truck loses power while driving, steer out of traffic when safe and call a Ford dealer. Schedule the recall repair soon. Repair is free at any franchised Ford dealer.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2022 Ford Maverick is included in this recall.
  2. Contact a franchised Ford dealer to schedule the free body control module and power train control module recalibration that corrects the failure to detect 12-volt battery state-of-charge changes.
  3. Bring the owner letter if you have it. If not, reference recall number 24V590 and Ford recall 24S50 when you call.
  4. Drive cautiously until the repair is complete, and address any loss of drive power or electrical accessories promptly.
  5. Call Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332 if the dealer cannot confirm the repair path.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Ford technician recalibrates the body control module and power train control module so the vehicle can detect changes in the 12-volt battery state of charge as intended. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. Ford's standard reimbursement plan covers documented remedy costs that owners paid before the recall notice. If you already paid for this specific repair, bring invoices or repair paperwork to the Ford service desk and ask how to submit the claim.
