Sounds to me like you might have a programming issue with your ECU and/or a problem with your ABS system. ABS(Anti-Lock Brake System), TCS (Traction-Control System), and that swirving vehicle icon (I think it's STM or Stability Management System) all utilize the ABS' brake sensors and individual braking to help control the wheelspin of each individual wheel. So my guess is if all three of those lights are on, then something is going on with your brake/ABS system and/or maybe caused by a slight screw up in the programming. Do you have any Ford specialists in your area?
