DRIVING ON THE HWY 485 TOWARD AIRPORT WHEN I HEARD A SUDDEN SOUND IN MY DASHBOARD. IT WAS A ETC (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT) AND THE ESC (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT) THAT CAME OUT AND, MY TEMPERATURE CONTROL GAUGE NEEDLE DROPPED FROM MI-RANGE TO ZERO. I SLOW DOWN THE CAR PULLED IT ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY SO I CAN CHECK TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND THE NEXT THING I KNOW WAS A HEAVY SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE HOOD AND THAT WAS IT.
WAS DRIVING AND HAD MULTIPLE STEREO ELECTRICAL ISSUES ALSO LOST DVD MONITOR THEN ABS ESP BAS CODE CAME UP AND HAD SOME RADICAL BRAKING WITH ON AND OFF REPETITION OF STEREO FUNCTIONS. STEREO AND ABS ESP BAS STILL NOT FUNCTIONING. *TR
DASH LIGHTS INDICATING FAILURE OF STABILITY CONTROL AND BRAKE FORCE HELP HAVE ILLUMINATED AND WON'T RESET. MECHANIC STATES VEHICLE REQUIRES STEERING ANGLE SENSOR. GETTING PART FOR REPAIR SEEMS TO BE DIFFICULT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN MY AREA AS ROADS ARE HEAVILY COVERED IN SNOW AND ICE FOR MONTHS AT A TIME.
