8/3/26 at 0003 I received a message from the ford app that remote features were disabled to preserve battery. My truck would not turn on when I tried to start it, it was completely dead so then I got it jumped. At 1302 I received an error message for powertrain malfunction/ reduced power there was also a warning lamp for service on the dash. I brought the truck in today for service and waiting to hear back. The truck has roughly 3500 miles and I bought it new in april 2026, I drive daily and drove it the night before and did not have any issues. I did some research online and saw information for class action law suits for previous years on the maverick as well as people with similar issues. Inspection upon request would be available. My safety could have been put at risk if the battery died on the roadway causing a safety issue to myself or other motorists.

This happened a second time before I could get myself off the freeway and to a …

Windshield cracks easily. It cracked in a way that might impair vision. I have had large rocks hit my windshields in the past and and it usually ends up as just a round spot.
