Conventional Parking Brake problem #1

I am concerned about the warning lights on the dashboard. When driving this vehicle the abs brake light along with the emergency brake stay lit while driving and when the vehicle is being used. It also seems that the door ajar buzzer tends to keep sounding while driving. This is a hindrance while driving.

Conventional Parking Brake problem #2

Ford service bulletin 980318985a28 parking brake won't release.

Conventional Parking Brake problem #3

Brake pads twice and the brake rotors once needed to be replaced. Abs light and parking brake light in the dash began to flash on and off. Currently, they are staying on in vehicle. Please provide any additional information/attachment.

Conventional Parking Brake problem #4

Emergency parking brake will not engage which causes vehicle to move forward when parked on an incline. Please give any further details.
