1 Electronic Stability Control problem

Failure Date: 06/20/2020

The car was parked. I started it up and put it in reverse and it wouldn't move. So I put it back in drive. It wouldn't move. So I put it back in reverse and gave it a little gas. It barely moved. So I put it in park and shut it down and pumped on the brakes a few times. I let it sit for a few seconds and tried it again and it was back to normal. Another time the same thing happened but it seemed like the brakes squeezed really tight. Overtight. . . . Because it made a loud spring like popping noise from the brakes. It's done this now several times and im worried that it will happen while driving. . . . Especially on the freeway. Like I said, its happened multiple times. Parked on the street, in a parking garage, on a steep hill in seattle, on a dirt road in the mountains coming back from fishing, some 22 miles from any main road.
