I was parallel parking my car and after I got the car in the space warning lights starting coming on the dashboard. The warning lights were; electric parking brake problem, emissions system problem, blind spot info system problem, tire pressure monitoring problem, transmission system problem. I tried to put it into park and it would not engage. Then I thought maybe if I drive it forward some and then park again it will reset. I drive out of the space and noticed there was a red flashing light that read park and the D was flashing. I think the car was telling me I needed to park the vehicle? I went ahead and parked again put it in park (it worked this time, but the P was flashing) and then turn off the vehicle. It would not turn off and instead it just beeped when I pressed the ignition button. After what felt like forever I decided to press and hold the ignition button. It finally turned off. The next day I went to move the car, again all the same lights came on but this time it would not let me put it in reverse. I put the vehicle in reverse took my foot off the break pedal and nothing happened. I put it in park and again tried to put it in reverse. Nothing happened again. I thought maybe the brake was engaged, so I tried to release the brake and tried to reverse again. Nothing happened! I even pressed the gas pedal thinking it was maybe in between gears, nothing happened. I tried putting it in park and then reverse several times before the car finally reversed. I've only had the vehicle 1.5 weeks I bought it brand new with 26 miles on the odometer. Also, I noticed both of the display screens do not turn on immediately like they used to. When I turned on the car it was a full minute before they turned on and the ac turned on.
