| Description of the problem | One or more of the breaks locked up on the car. The abs, epc, traction control, and a number of other lights on the car lit up and began flashing. The car's speedometer and fuel guage stopped working. After the car was restarted most of the errors went away but have since reappeared. Based on the number of posts i'm finding online, this appears to be a wide-spread problem with the 09's. |
