I've had the esp/abs problem since I've owned this car, the yellow warning light comes and goes but whenever the esp/abs warning light is on, esp/abs does not work but the light turns off within a few minutes or couple of hours. Somehow when I have the mechanics check diagnose the car for the problem but they ended up not finding any logs for those mentioned problem. . . . Last time this happened was today on my way home. .
Fuel sensor not working properly; while having gas, once tank meter reads 1/2, the engine shot-down, incorrectly telling that the tank is empty. Same issues with the cathalytic converter system. Engine's transmission wearing fast; pushing back and fort while accelerating.
