ABS/brake lights turn on intermittently. There seems to be any correlation to any particular driving condition, speed, force of braking, etc. Ford dealership diagnosed the problem as an ABS module failure. They also state that failure to rectify the issue would result in probable failure of the brake system in general at any given time. The quote for the repair is anywhere up to $1,000. Ford Motor Company offered zero assistance/advice in the matter. Consequently, the driver's side window no longer functions.

ABS and brake lamps intermittently come on. ABS is disabled when the lamps are on. This problem occurs frequently. The lamps come on when you start the van and stay lit, but sometimes for weeks the lamps do not come on at all and the ABS works. I would estimate the lamps are on 60-70% of the time.
