Service Brakes problem #1

This is a follow up to previous report 11773016. This morning we had triple "a" haul the 2026 Ford Ranger lariat to the corwin Ford dealership here in reno. Upon arriving to pick up the vehicle the tow vehicle driver looked under the vehicle and discovered all attaching bolts on the left front brake caliper missing and the caliper floating loosely. He was shocked that we had not had a critical incident!! I had reported earlier to corwin Ford unusual locking up on left turns and was told by the dealership that there was nothing wrong. We have been driving the vehicle at highway speeds to and from reno- this is outrageous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Service Brakes problem #2

After arriving in carson city from reno, nv and running errands on local city side streets the vehicle began making a loud ticking noise which transitioned to a whomp/whomp/whomp noise. I pulled over at the nearest opportunity into a business parking lot and the vehicle brakes immediately locked up. I received the following error messages on screen; > anti lock brake system failure >hill start assist failed >electric parking brake failed >collision assist unavailable >check engine brake light >I checked documentation for release of parking brake and followed directions and the brake would not release. After multiple attempts the brakes would not release. Next I tried putting the vehicle into reverse and the brake finally released. All warning lights now remain on and brakes pull to the rights when applied.
