| Description of the problem | While in motion on the city street going 45 miles per hour the electronic stability control shut off. Lost the ability to accelerate and couldn't do anything else with the vehicle. Had to put it in park, shut off the engine and wait for 2 mins then restarted the car and it worked fine. But after driving a while longer the esc shut off again. Had to repeat the process of turning off the engine and restarting the car again. While making a turn a little whike later it shut off again. Took it into the shop and they couldn't figure out what is causing the problem. |
