On certain vehicles, a software problem for the electronic stability control system (ESP) could cause the antilock brake system (ABS), acceleration slip regulation (ASR) and electronic brake force distribution (EBD) to malfunction. Also, the speedometer could display 0 km/h while the vehicle is moving. Note: This problem would cause various warnings to display on the instrument cluster.
