Summary

FordeBay logo Motor Company (FordeBay logo) is recalling certain 2022 Maverick vehicles.

Remedy

Dealers will update the software in the ABS module, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 9, 2022. Owners may contact FordeBay logo customer service at 1-866-436-7332. FordeBay logo’s number for this recall is 22C24.

Compliance Recall 22C24
Certain 2022 Model Year Maverick Vehicles Equipped with an Integrated Trailer
Relay Module (TRM), Without Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Brake Lamps Stay On – Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) Software Update

 

AFFECTED VEHICLES

Vehicle Model Year Assembly Plant Build Dates
Maverick2022HermosilloFebruary 11, 2021 through September 5, 2022
Maverick2022HermosilloOctober 5, 2022 through October 6, 2022

Affected vehicles are identified in OASIS and FSA VIN Lists.

 

REASON FOR THIS COMPLIANCE RECALL

All of the affected vehicles may not conform to the requirements specified by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108 – Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment. It may be possible that while driving, the brake lamps illuminate without the brakes being applied if the TRM trailer brake gain is set to 0.5 or above. This condition may occur with or without a trailer connected to the vehicle. Unintentional brake lamp illumination may impair the effectiveness of the brake lamps and increase the risk of a crash.

If a trailer equipped with electric or electric-over-hydraulic brakes is connected to the vehicle, the trailer brakes may apply without the vehicle’s brakes being applied, causing the trailer load to feel heavier than normal.

 

SERVICE ACTION

Before demonstrating or delivering any new in-stock vehicles involved in this recall, dealers are to update the ABS software. This service must be performed on all affected vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

 

OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE

Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of November 7, 2022. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.

PLEASE NOTE:

Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery. 

 

SOLD VEHICLES

  • FordeBay logo has not issued instructions to stop selling/delivering or driving used vehicles under this compliance recall. Owners should contact their dealer for an appointment to have their vehicles remedied as soon as practicable. Owners can continue to safely drive their vehicles if the brake controller gain is set below 0.5.
  • Immediately contact any of your affected customers whose vehicles are not on your VIN list but are identified in OASIS. Give the customer a copy of the Owner Notification Letter (when available) and schedule a service date.
  • Correct other affected vehicles identified in OASIS which are brought to your dealership.
  • Dealers are to prioritize repairs of customer vehicles over repairs of new and used vehicle inventory.

 

STOCK VEHICLES

  • Correct all affected units in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.
  • Use OASIS to identify any affected vehicles in your used vehicle inventory.

 

DEALER-OPERATED RENTAL VEHICLES

The Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act law effective June 2016 prohibits a rental company from selling, renting or leasing vehicles subject to a safety or compliance recall. Please consult your legal counsel for legal advice.

 

TITLE BRANDED / SALVAGED VEHICLES

Affected title branded and salvaged vehicles are eligible for this recall.

 

OWNER REFUNDS

  • This safety recall must still be performed, even if the owner has paid for a previous repair. Claiming a refund will not close the recall on the vehicle.
  • FordeBay logo Motor Company is offering a refund for owner-paid repairs covered by this recall if the repair was performed prior to the date indicated in the reimbursement plan, which is posted with this bulletin. Owners are directed to seek reimbursement through authorized dealers or, at their option, directly through FordeBay logo Motor Company at P.O. Box 6251, Dearborn, MI 481216251.
  • Dealers are also pre-approved to refund owner-paid emergency repairs that were performed away from an authorized servicing dealer after the end date specified in the reimbursement plan. Non-covered repairs, or those judged by FordeBay logo to be excessive, will not be reimbursed.
  • Refunds will only be provided for the cost associated with updating the ABS software.

 

RENTAL VEHICLES 

Rental vehicles are not approved for this program.

 

ADDITIONAL REPAIR (LABOR TIME AND/OR PARTS)

  • For related damage and access time requirements, refer to the Warranty and Policy Manual / Section 6 – FordeBay logo & LincolneBay logo Program Policies / General Information & Special Circumstances for FSA’s / Related Damage.
  • For vehicles within new vehicle bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage, no SSSC approval is required, although related damage must be on a separate repair line with the “Related Damage” radio button checked.
    • FordeBay logo vehicles – 3 years or 36,000 miles

CERTAIN 2022 MODEL YEAR MAVERICK VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN INTEGRATED TRAILER RELAY MODULE (TRM), WITHOUT ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) – BRAKE LAMPS STAY ON – ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) SOFTWARE UPDATE

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

Module Programming

NOTE: Program appropriate vehicle modules before performing diagnostics and clear all DTC’s after programming. For DTC’s generated after programming, follow normal diagnostic service procedures.

1. Connect a battery charger to the 12V battery.

NOTE: Verify that the negative cable of the charger is installed on a chassis or engine ground, and not the 12 volt battery negative terminal to prevent the battery saver mode from activating on the   vehicle.

NOTE: If the diagnostic software does not load or if the vehicle cannot be identified properly, make sure there is a good internet connection and the VCM is properly connected to the DLC.

2. Log into FordeBay logo Diagnostic and Repair System (FDRS).

NOTE: Vehicle information is automatically retrieved by the diagnostic software and a Network Test is run. Vehicle identification data appears on the screen when this is complete.

3. Click ‘Read VIN from Vehicle‘ or manually enter the VIN.

NOTE: Available modules are shown on the Left Hand (LH) side of the screen, and available procedures are listed on the Right Hand (RH) side of the screen. Modules that are communicating are highlighted in green.

4. Select Toolbox tab.

5. From the list on the LH side of the screen, select the ABS -Anti-lock braking system.

6. From the list on the RH side of the screen, select:

ABS -Anti-lock braking system (ABS) Module Software Update.

7. Click Download, then click RUN.  Follow all on-screen instructions carefully.

8. From the list on the RH side of the screen, select Self-Test and click RUN.

9. Click the Run Selected Tests button in the lower right.

10.  Click the Clear & Retest button at the top of the screen to clear DTC’s in all modules.

11. Disconnect the battery charger from the 12V battery once the programming has completed.

 

Important Information for Module Programming

NOTE: When programming a module, use the following basic checks to ensure programming completes without errors.

  • Make sure the 12V battery is fully charged before carrying out the programming steps and connect FDRS/scan tool to a power source.

NOTE: A good internet connection is necessary to identify the vehicle and to load the diagnostic software.

  • Inspect VCM IIeBay logo/Vehicle Communication and Measurement Module  (VCMM) and cables for any damage. Make sure scan tool connections are not interrupted during programming.
  • A hardwired connection is strongly recommended.
  • Turn off all unnecessary accessories (radio, heated/cooled seats, headlamps, interior lamps, HVAC system, etc.) and close doors.
  • Disconnect/depower any aftermarket accessories (remote start, alarm, power inverter, CB radio, etc.).
  • Follow all scan tool on-screen instructions carefully.
  • Disable FDRS/scan tool sleep mode, screensaver, hibernation modes.
  • Create all sessions Key On Engine Off (KOEO). Starting the vehicle before creating a session will cause errors within the programming inhale process.

 

Recovering a module when programming has resulted in a blank module

a. Disconnect the VCMII or VCMM from the DLC and from the diagnostic scan tool.

b. After ten seconds, reconnect the VCMII/VCMM to the DLC and diagnostic scan tool. Launch FDRS. The VCMII/VCMM icon should turn green in the bottom right corner of the screen. If it does not, troubleshoot the FDRS to VCM connection.

c. If you are using the same FDRS as the initial programming attempt, select the appropriate VIN from the Vehicle Identification menu. If you are using a different FDRS, select “Read VIN from Vehicle” and proceed through the Network Test.

d. In the Toolbox menu, navigate to the failed module and Download/Run Programmable Module Installation (PMI). Follow the on-screen prompts. When asked if the original module is installed, select “No” and continue through the installation application.

e. Once programming has completed, a screen may list additional steps required to complete the programming process. Make sure all applicable steps are followed in order.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Federal law prohibits selling motor vehicle parts or components that are under safety, compliance, or emissions recall. Unless a part is requested to be returned to FordeBay logo, all parts replaced under this FSA must be scrapped in accordance with all applicable local, state and federal environmental protection and hazardous material regulations. Refer to the Parts Retention, Return, & Scrapping section of the FSA dealer bulletin for further information.

 


Chronology :

On August 26th 2022 , an issue pertaining to the rear brake lamps was brought to FordeBay logo’s Critical Concern Review Group for review.

On August, 2022 the Plant Vehicle Team was made aware of an issue with the rear brake lamps on Maverick.
Under certain circumstances the brake lamps are illuminated when the driver is not applying the brakes.

An investigation revealed that the ABS module supplied by Continental transmitted an incorrect value to the ITRM due to a misinterpretation of a specification provided by FordeBay logo.

As of September 22nd 2022, there have been 23 known warranty claims alleging vehicle stop lamps illuminating without brake application. As of September 22th, 2022 there are no related VOQs, accidents, or injuries reported.

On September 23rd 2022, FordeBay logo’s Field Review Committee reviewed the concern and approved a field action.

FordeBay logo is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this condition.
