Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Esp inoperative message appears. Wipers went on (although they were off at the time) turn signals were inoperative and interior lights not working.. I pulled to the side of the road and was unable to engage park or reverse. I shut the ignition off and neutral was automatically engaged but park still not working. Removing the key engaged park. Restarting the car the esp inoperative message was still displayed and drive could not be engaged. After leaving the key removed for 2-3 minutes all was clear. No recurrence of the problem for 6 months then recurred on september 22, 2014 and again on september 24, 2014. I feel this is a very dangerous issue. Stability control is lost along with turn signals and even if you stop the car stays in drive and reverse is not available. Park can only be engaged by removing the key. Each recurrence was the same. Headlights were still working but i could not establish if tail and brake lights working since the car stays in drive until you remove the key so you cannot check this.
