Ford Motor Company is recalling two 2025 Maverick and Escape vehicles due to a defect in the electric brake booster's electronic control unit (ECU). The cover for this unit can cause the internal circuit board to overheat, which may lead to a sudden loss of power brake assist or stability control systems like anti-lock braking and traction control. Dealers will replace the faulty electric brake booster components for free.
A loss of power brake assist or stability control systems can make the vehicle much harder to stop or steer during an emergency, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
