Unsure of where to even begin with this but hoping maybe someone here might have gone through this and can provide some guidance on their resolution.

yesterday on my way home my bronco started throwing an error some to the effect of the brakes are activated or applied and it begins to loose the ability accelerate and then slows to a stop. This seems to only be triggered once the bronco approached 50 mph in any driving mode but obviously makes the vehicle unsafe to drive for long distances or really at all. The front rims are covered in brake dust and the brake lights are locked on as of the brakes are compressed and they are not. We have disconnected the battery and let it set and tried to see if it would reset it did not. Also now all my other things like hill assist and remote start and collision assistance have all shut off and are throwing errors now. I have only had the car about a month no longer. I’m vet disheartened with this and super stressed any insight would be most helpful as the local dealerships are saying it may be a month or more to get it repaired

It could be a booster problem. Mine was sticking and causing the brakes to lock up. It was caused from external damage though.
