Consumer Description

I WILL BE DRIVING AND THE ESC OFF LIGHTS GOES ON DASHBOARD. THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT WILL STALL OUT AND BECOMES SLUGGISH. I PULL OVER AND PARK THE CAR THEN IT WON'T GO INTO DRIVE OR OUT OF PARK. I WAIT OVER 15 MINUTES AND AM ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. I HAVE BROUGHT TO KIA DEALTERSHIP AND SAID IT WAS BRAKE SWITCH. THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE SWITCH AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. I WILL BRING IT IN TO DEALER SHIP AGAIN BECAUSE CAR SEEMS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE BRAKE SWITCH WAS REPLACED ON APRIL 3, 2017 AND STILL A RECURRING PROBLEM
