| Description of the problem | At vehicle start, or while driving, the following warning messages appear on the vehicle information panel: 1) vehicle dynamic control system needs to be checked; 2) abs system needs to be checked; and 3) hill start assist system needs to be checked. These warnings appear, go away, and then reappear randomly. When these warnings appear at vehicle start, i am unable to put in gear without pumping brake pedal multiple times. When these warnings appear with the vehicle in motion, i am unable to utilize the cruise control. I have taken the vehicle to my local mechanic, warnings were not being displayed at the time, and they could not find anything wrong, i will be taking the vehicle in to the dealership for service soon and will address these issues at that time. |
