| Description of the problem | I will be driving and the esc off lights goes on dashboard. The car feels like it will stall out and becomes sluggish. I pull over and park the car then it won't go into drive or out of park. I wait over 15 minutes and am able to drive home. I have brought to kia dealtership and said it was brake switch. They replaced the brake switch and the problem persists. I will bring it in to dealer ship again because car seems unsafe to drive. The brake switch was replaced on april 3, 2017 and still a recurring problem |
