I had the same problem. I fixed it by removing the fuel filler door switch and cleaning/sanding the contacts. You don't have to remove the door panel, just remove the 4 screws on the door panel, reach up and pinch the sides of the switch and push it out.

Very easy to do and completely solved my problem.

The ESC Off light comes on and pushing the ON/OFF switch does not put it out. If I shut the car off and re start, the dash light goes out sometimes; May return the next time I start the car..I've heard that the problem has something to do with the brake sensors.

This appears to be a common problem with Hyundais who refuse to address the problem unless the cars are recalled. Please write the National Car Safety so that they can request a recall.
