There is no low fuel light on the dash. I just found this out because it is the first time I ran the gas that low. Brakes- When braking the transmission jumps. It makes the car hop. These are both safety concerns because you won-??t know you have low fuel unless you shut the car off and turn it back on. With the brakes, no component should be making a car jump when you hit the brakes

While driving down the interstate at 60mph, screen displayed two error messages: -??parking brake function limited-?? and -??collision assistance unavailable.-?? I completely lost brake function for ~10 seconds. Only didn-??t crash because no one was stopped ahead of me. Took to dealership who -??couldn-??t replicate-?? the issue, later told me they had fixed it by reprogramming the software. Two inconsistent answers gave me no sense of trust in the repair. This issue could kill somebody if at the wrong time and they were completely indifferent. I-??ve since traded the car but have no faith Ford has any desire at all to investigate or resolve what could be a fatal error to someone.
