KIA SORENTO 2011 ESC DBS LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD AND EITHER CANNOT GET OUT OF PARK OR WHEN TRYING TO SHUT VEHICLE DOWN WILL GET STUCK IN BETWEEN NEUTRAL AND DRIVE, I SHUT DOWN CAR BUT OBVIOUSLY CANNOT TAKE KEYS OUT, WAIT A FEW MINUTES RESTART IN NEUTRAL AND SOMETIMES I CAN GET IT IN OR OUT OF PARK. SOMETIMES THIS IS DONE SEVERAL TIMES.
DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN MY 2011 KIA SORENTO LAST NIGHT, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON, ALONG WITH THREE OTHER LIGHTS (ALL BRAKE RELATED). LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OUT, SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY. THEY TOLD ME IT IS A REAR SPEED SENSORING ISSUE AND MY ANTI LOCK BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING. FIXING IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME MY KIA HAS ELECTRONIC ISSUES. BUT THESE ARE DANGEROUS! IF YOUR BRAKES DON'T WORK AND YOU ARE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, DANGER ABOUT TO HAPPEN. *TR
