Driving 70+mph on freeway and the acc went out with an alert. Continued driving and the lanekeep assist had an error and ceased working, followed by an error for collision avoidance. Shortly after the speedometer and odometer went to 0 and several other errors for ABS, ESC, and others went off. This felt like the scene from apollo 13 where everything was going wrong at once. I noticed the power steering was not working and it was much more difficult to turn the wheel as I pulled into the Ford dealer. There was steam/smoke coming from my front grill.

My mother was attempting to park her 2019 Ford Escape. Upon applying the brake the vehicle surged / jolted / accelerated forward and she went over the parking curb and hit a building. Thankfully she is ok, however, she does not want to drive this vehicle anymore due to how the vehicle malfunctioned.
