| Description of the problem | The esc light came on 3/14/17 and remain on from 7:00pm to 8:00 pm and then went off by itself. On 3/13/ 17 in the morning i was 40 min to work and when i arrived to my destination of work i continue to press the gas pedal while driving but the car slowed down like it was going to cut off, so i pulled over on the side of the road and cut the car off and restarted the car, after doing this i was able to drive the car normal but with hesitation. In august i was having problems with the car not starting, so i press the button for ignition but it would not start this would happen often i took the car to the hyundai dealership and was told that they could not detect the problem which they also kept the car overnight but did not find anything wrong. My car would not start after several encounters finally i would put the car in drive and then start the car and it would start right up everyone it would cut off.
