 I was driving the sonata when all of a sudden the car lost its force and wouldn't move. while stuck in the middle of the street i was pushing the gas peddle but the car would not go. the esc off light came on, and the check engine light as well. i powered the car off and turned it back on but the car still did not have a lot of force, but enough to get to a nearby parking lot. i left the car off in a parking lot for about 5 min and turned it back on. the esc light turned off, but not the check engine. there have been similar problems where its a switch in the brake peddle but that should not make the entire car shut off. i took it to my dealership since i just bought the car 2 weeks ago and now i'm waiting for diagnostics to come back. *tr

 The brake lights do not illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed. the gear shift not able to be shifted out of the park position. the electronic stability control (esc) malfunction light illuminates. very similar to recall for same model on another year (2006).
