| Description of the problem | When speeding up or slowing down the esc light can come on. Car appears to have trouble changing gears when this happens. When the issue occurs after stopping or yielding then the car can go into a jolting back and forth motion for a few seconds up unto about 30 seconds before it smooths out. Also, some times, the car is unresponsive for a few seconds up unto 30 seconds before it will respond to the gas pedal being pushed. Stopping the car and restarting the engine appears to clear the esc light, but it can come back on randomly at another speeding up or slowing down. Dealer appears to have no answer after 5 days in their service shop. |
