Elevated severity
This campaign addresses a defect NHTSA classifies as carrying elevated crash or injury risk.
What the defect is
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2022 Maverick vehicles. The side-curtain air bags may not deploy properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 226, "Ejection Mitigation."
Why it matters
Improper deployment of an air bag increases the risk of injury in a crash.
The remedy
Dealers will replace the left and right side-curtain air bag modules with a new design, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 30, 2023. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 22C20.
What this page does not include
NHTSA's public recall feed does not supply an affected-population count, the manufacturer's own campaign number, owner-notification dates or a defect chronology for this campaign. Rather than estimate them, we omit them. Confirm whether a specific vehicle is affected — and whether the repair has already been done — using its VIN.
