My brake pedal will randomly fall to the floor when stopping. Nothing to engage the abs, it just falls. Not a fan of that

That sounds dangerous. What did the dealer day?

Both sides of the top of my steering wheel have these little indentions...

havent had time to take it in. also havent been able to recreate it. happens randomly

Yeah, do everyone local to you a favor, get it towed to the dealer. Pedal to the floor can be a bunch of things nowadays. I had a bike throw an abs fault on Susten Pass in Switzerland as I was setting up for hairpin 7 or 8 out of 20 or so.

No brakes, no brakes, no brakes and then abs fault and full lockup when the modulator faulted. Obviously I made the turn and the remaining hairpins down the pass. That is a seriously uncomfortable feeling. ******* bmw.

I could be as simple as air in the lines, but it could also be mechanical or electronic and honestly it’s not worth finding out the hard way.

Have them look at the brake booster and brake actuator. This was a common failure point on the first gen ecoboost and I am not sure that the design of it was corrected.

My lariat had the same problem. Very random but mostly while slow speed ot coming to stop. Ford denied it was a problem till many started complaining to NTSB. Master cylinder had to be replaced.
