    Default ESP Failure- VZ Calais

    Guys,

    I keep getting the 'ESP Failure' when ever I am driving on the roads. This is starting to annoy me now!!
    The driving style is normal, not in anyway enthusiastic!! (max. speed 50km/h). Whenever this warning comes up and alarms start beeping.. I pull over and turn the ignition off and the problem goes away. However, once started up and running at cruising speeds.. there goes the ESP Failure!!

    Is it a problem with the ABS sensors.?? What could be the damage? Will I need to get new parts??

    Thanks In Advance!

    could be worth replacing the fuse for the rear brake lights. i towed a trailer a little while ago and when i first started it up and put my foot on the brake, the fuse went and the ESP failed with it... replaced the fuse and it was all sweet

    i had this same issue after i hopped a gutter?
    bent the lower adjustable control arm and then screwed with all the sensors.
