While driving my speedometer stopped working, power steering feels like it went out. ABS, check engine, brake, flat tire, all lights that popped up on the dash. RPM gauge still works, it drives like normal minus power steering. I'm thinking maybe the speed sensor?

Check battery for condition including load test a battery in poor shape will cause that.

It means you have lost communication between either the steering module or abs/pcm can line a pro needs to definitely scan this to see where it is either a short or bad connection. This should be a warranty issue or if a recent body damage repair it may have painted over ground wire underhood.

I'm seeing this issue but only on days where temperature is extremely cold, 10-20°F. What should I do?

Hello,

It sounds like you have an IGN1 relay that is going out which runs the systems that are affected and it will cause a communication error as well. Here is a guide and some diagrams to help you confirm the issue and get it fixed.

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken
