| I've had my car in the warranty repair shop 6 times in the last 3 months. first occurrence i was driving down the road and my warning lights came on for esc off, service traction control, service esc at 20 mph. they've replaced 4 parts on my car and today the same lights service traction control and service esc have come on once again. it varies (speed doesn't matter) whether or not going down the highway or stopping in a driveway when it comes on but warning lights will come on when you touch the brakes. i also observed that the brake lights stay on while going down the road (when its dark outside) but when you apply the brakes the brake lights go off. i feel this could be dangerous if someone is following behind you and thinks that you have let off the brakes but you are actually slowing down. i don't think that they have an apparent fix for this issue as i see several reports from vehicles ranging from 2008 to 2012 online complaining about this same issue. i am to take my car back again for service next week to hopefully get it repaired but i am not so sure they are going to find the problem after already having it in there so many times for the same issue. it is intermittant. when you turn the car off after this occurs the lights will go off. sometimes only for a short period other times for a week to 3 weeks before it comes on again. *tr | |||
