While traveling at highway speed on I-95 North around 10AM, the vehicle brake quickly and abruptly activated which reduced the vehicle speed by 15-20 MPH. Within seconds, the vehicle returned to previously set speed with Adaptive cruise activated. This incident occurred while passing a tractor trailer truck. The truck was in the center lane and I was passing on the far left lane. As I started to pass the truck, the brake activated when within 10-20 feet of the truck for a moment then returned to previously set speed (75 MPH). This happened so quickly and unexpectedly, I did not notice any warning indicators on the dash display. Fortunately there were no vehicles closely behind me so there was little risk of an accident this time! Due to this incident, I have not used adaptive cruise since nor have I taken the vehicle to a dealer.

The power running board on the passenger side is malfunctioning. Twice it has opened and then started shutting with the door open and my child's good on it, almost closing with their foot in it. I have taken it to the dealer but they could not replicate the issue. I am taking it in again next week. The vehicle was not turned on and was in park.

The vehicle shakes/vibrates when driving over 65mph, gets worse the faster you go. Seems worse in the middle of the vehicle. Took it to Ford dealer we purchased from and they couldn't find an issue, just said its something with the tires or rims. Took it to local Ford dealer and same thing, said it was rims or tires giving vibration. Brand new vehicle!! should be a smooth ride, and dealer has no idea why it does this, and has no solutions other than good luck. Started last summer, after the vehicle was towed. Dealers didn't notice any damage or anything notable underneath the vehicle.
