File date	14/08/16
Component	ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	At roughly 11pm at night while driving home from the gym the car started beeping and the epc light came on. Shortly after the abs, check engine light, traction control, brake light(flashing), steering wheel icon, and a message saying engine fault workshop all lit up. I imagine all these lights prompting the car to go into limp mode. My gas gauge stopped working along with the spedometer and the car would only rec about 2k rpms trying to protect itself from further damage(limp mode). Problem would continue on from then. The car won't turn properly as it feels like it's really loose and isn't grabbing the road.
