| Description of the problem | A lot of times that i am driving, either pulling off or when im at a slow rate of speed and push gas to gain more speed (as if going around turn), the esc light will come on and my car will shake as it idles. The gas pedal stops working when this ,light comes on and when i push on the brakes, they are hard. As my car comes to a complete stop, it shakes the entire time. Then when i turn my car off, it sometimes goes away but it sometimes stays on and my car won't move. But it happens a lot and i don't know what to do. I always have to pull off the road and restart it. It happens in the middle of intersections and one time getting onto the interstate. Being a female and having this problem at night is scary. It started about two months ago and has been doing it a lot within the past two weeks. |
