“Parking brake malfunction indicated. Ford CSP 22P31 covers repair of the issue for vehichles with a manufacture date before 3/15/22. My vehicle reached the US on 6/22/22. Ford has offered to cover a small part of the repair, but won't include me in the fix due to manufacture date. So Ford ended the program, NEVER FIXED THE ISSUE, and now won't offer to repair my car.”

NHTSA complaint #11725195, filed 2026-03

“After 22,207 mi, the right rear wheel unit started making a clunking similar to a flat tire. I looked online and found TSB 22-2023 which states that a common problem with the Mach E one pedal driving is brake pad material gets fused to the rotor. I took it in for repair and the brakes are out of warranty after 18000mi. Average life of brake rotors FOR CARS THAT USE THEIR BRAKES is 30,000-70,000mi. …”

“I was driving my car like normal when a handful of warning signs popped up on the front screen and the brakes went out. I could only stop by pushing on the pedal with all my force, and it eventually slowed the car to a stop, but took an incredibly long distance to do so. A handful of warning lights popped on the screen when this happened: -Power train malfunction/reduced power - antilock brake fault - pre collision assist not available - hill start assist warning”

“I was waiting in a drive thru behind a line of cars at a full stop for some time, so I was using One Pedal assist/Auto Hold. My car suddenly accelerated and slammed into the car in front of me.”

“was driving my 2022 Mustang Mach-E in One-Pedal Whisper mode on. I always drive in that mode because it has a great feature where as soon as I take my foot off the accelerator the car slows down significantly. I feel safer in this mode especially in high traffic or on the freeway. I was very slowly turning into a parking spot in a private parking lot, stepped on brake to put car into Park when the car lurched forward without me touching anything, I had no control of my car no matter how hard I pressed on the brake. My car was driving itself!! …”
