Brake Grinding Noise Problems of Ford Fusion

Was driving around 35 mph and heard a clunk. A few seconds later and another clunk. Then heard a grinding noise and the loss of traction light came on, so I put my foot on the brake, at which point it became clear that the grinding noise was from abs engaging. Slowed down to under 25, and it stopped these issues. Sped up to above 30, and the problems reoccurred. As these things happened, it became harder to steer. Car system was malfunctioning in some way to think I was losing traction and that abs need to be engaged. There was no reason for any of this as I was traveling straight on a dry (sunny, no rain), straight road. Eventually the service advancetrac light came on as well. Was able to find a place to pull over by keeping the car under 25 mph (any speed above that seemed to re-engage the issue). Even at low speeds, loss of traction light and service advancetrac indicator remained on. This issue is dangerous as it makes the car harder to steer and control. I was lucky to be on a straight road with no other traffic.

I have a 2010 Ford Fusion with 48,000 miles, while driving it I noticed it started to make a grinding noise in the rear. So I took one of the tires off and noticed that the pads were badly worn so I went down to the part store, got new rotors and pads. After intalling, I noticed the rotor on the right rear had a large crack on the backside of the rotor just under where the pad hits the roader. It is almost cracked all around. I am not an egineer, but to me, that is a factory defect and a safety hazard to me and my family; these rotors were in terrible shape for 48,000 miles. One good pot hole, and the whole tire and everything could have came off because of the cracked rotor. There should be a recall for this, thank you for your time.
