The Ford Maverick features a standard 4-wheel disc brake system with ABS, and some models, like the Hybrid, also include electronic brake boost and regenerative braking. The Hybrid's system can be smooth in some braking situations but can also be grabby or unpredictable during the transition from regenerative to hydraulic braking, the Maverick utilizes an electric parking brake, which requires a specific procedure to activate brake maintenance mode for rear brake pad replacement.

The Maverick comes standard with disc brakes on all four wheels, which are known for their reliable stopping power and resistance to brake fade. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking, improving control and stability.
The Hybrid models incorporate electronic brake boost, which enhances braking performance and efficiency.
The hybrid system uses regenerative braking to recapture energy during deceleration, which is then used to recharge the hybrid battery.
The EPB is activated by a switch instead of a traditional lever or pedal, and it is used in conjunction with the auto hold feature.
The EPB system requires a specific procedure to activate brake maintenance mode for rear brake pad replacement.
The instrument cluster in the Maverick Hybrid features a "Brake Coach" display, which provides feedback on braking efficiency, helping drivers optimize their braking technique to maximize regenerative braking.
Some drivers have reported that the transition from regenerative to hydraulic braking in the Hybrid can be abrupt and unpredictable, particularly during light to moderate braking.
It's crucial to deactivate brake maintenance mode after completing rear brake pad replacement to ensure proper brake function.
It's recommended to have brakes inspected regularly, especially during routine maintenance visits, to check for wear and ensure proper functionality.
Brake pad and rotor wear can vary significantly depending on driving habits. Frequent braking in heavy traffic or aggressive driving can lead to faster wear.
Refer to the Ford Maverick owner's manual for specific maintenance recommendations and suggested intervals for brake inspections and component replacement.
