EPC stands for Electronic Power Control fault light. When this indicator lights up, it signifies a fault in the engine or electronic system, often caused by spark plug carbon buildup. This system helps the vehicle avoid deviating from the ideal trajectory during emergency obstacle avoidance or when experiencing understeer or oversteer during turns.
