check owners manual see if there's some kind of reset , get a scanner read codes and get the definitions , it may have to be towed to a dealership or mechanic , Newer cars , like so many other things in todays world , can not handle adversity . Basically your car SUCKS , I'm surprised a code doesn't come up when you wipe a booger on the seat ..

Press the brake hard while pressing the start button as you cannot start the car without first stepping on the brake pedal. Repeat again and again. If it doesn't start, your start button may be kaput.
