Currently have 1400 miles on my RR and while cruising down the highway today I passed over an expansion joint and immediately got a parking brake failure message that won't go away. EPB is of course inoperable but luckily this fault doesn't interfere with drive mode selection etc. Interesting to note that at 70 miles I had a similar issue on the day I picked up the truck where the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and more faults started to appear after going over a bumpy joint in the highway. Immediately returned it and a loose connection at one of the wheel speed sensors was the culprit. Hoping these trucks don't suffer from a run of bad harnesses or clumsy assembly.

Hi there! If you send over a DM with your VIN and Ford dealer info, I can look into your concerns on my end.

Will do! Just FYI I resolved the problem myself as it was a loose connection at the left park brake motor/caliper. The right side was loose as well but not yet moved enough to set a fault.

Just had this malfunction come up today and OMG it is annoying. Seems to be functioning fine just got a light on the dash and a CONSTANT dinging.

where did the loose connection end up being? Was it a speed sensor or something in the caliper itself?
