Only way to "remove" this was to pull over, stop, place in park and then restart engine. Became more frequent as vehicle aged.

Found through RV online forum that ABS was possibly deactivated during this time of illumination and software…
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 FORD MH STRIPPED CHASSIS MOTOR HOME. UPON ENTERING A PARKING SPACE THE WINDSHIELD GLASS SEPARATED FROM THE BRACKETS WITHOUT PRIOR WARNINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING INSPECTED BY THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT BECAUSE HE WAS THE SECOND OWNER THEY WOULD NOT PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE NOT APPLICABLE.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
