All three of these lights came on for the first time (all at the same time along with the air bag light) the other day. I shut my car off and then started it again  and they shut of so I kinda let it go. Then they came on again last night and are staying on even after restarting or if theyre not on when started they will pop up after a few minutes. We used our code reader and got no codes. Thought I would post on here and see if anyone knew the issue. It’s also causing the steering wheel to turn harder. Thought maybe something to do with the battery but it’s charged to 100% and still doing it.

A "fully charged" 4 year old battery isn't necessarily good enough. Since it is at end-of-life (based on the feedback of many Fusion owners indicating anything beyond 3 years is problematic), I would replace the battery now. See if that changes the symptoms. If no change - it didn't really cost anything, and was a quick elimination of a potential cause.

Agreed.  A 4 year old battery is not fully charged and is just waiting to fail, so why not replace it now for just over $100 and there is a good chance it fixes the problem.  If not you can eliminate that as a cause and not have to worry about the battery for another 3-4 years.

 

I rarely get more than 3 years out of a battery.

Just had a similar problem with my 2016 Ford Fusion. I had my mechanic check it out and his scanner found a bad driver side wheel sensor. He replaced it and the lights would not clear. Ended up taking it to my Ford dealer and they traced it to broken wires in the wheel well. They replaced them and the problem went away.
