ABS light comes on intermittently. When ABS light is off, brakes work normally. When malfunction occurs, the brakes buzz on application and stopping distance increases dramatically then the ABS light will illuminate. I called Ford and they will not offer any dealer financial assistance.also the steering gearbox makes a loud groan and vibration when recovering from a right turn. Some resistance is felt attempting to turn the wheel back to the left. The vibration is felt in the steering wheel. Again Ford refuses to assist even though there are multiple similar complaints on both of my complaints in your listings.
