Default Error codes after driving

Hello,
I was driving on some dirt roads around where I live, hit a big bump and 3 error codes came up on the dash. Hill descent control, pre collision, drive mode not available. Turned the truck off and back on but they were still there. Couldn’t find anyone else who had the same problem. About 30 min later I turned it off and left it for like 5 minutes came back and the codes are gone.

Please help!

Could have got something in the wheel speed sensor ring that momentarily corrupted the signal. Without a DTC scan it would be hard to do anything but speculate.

Something similar happened to my sister in laws Ford Edge. Hit a pothole, and three similar issues popped up. Drove it home and they never came back.

While one can't be sure, the PCM program has to handle speed sensitive sensor outputs and inputs to the program that can be interpreted as a fault if a wheel leaves the road surface or the engine reacts to a sudden fast temporary loading from wheel spin and traction control events..
This is mentioned in certain document describing such events.
If it is not a hard fault, will clear on subsequent drive cycles.
Good luck.
