VW EOS ESC Error message

My VW 2015 EOS works great but since my last tire rotation, the ESC Stabilization Control Error appears while drive on dry roads at a constant speed. Engine slows, cannot accelerate. Must pull off the road, shut off the engine and restart. Everything works well for many trips, then it happens again. What is causing this error message?

After first incident, someone suggested my battery was bad, so replaced the battery. But problem persists.
