ESP Failure, Run Flat Indicator unavailable

Good Afternoon, i wonder who can help me with info.
2006 B class B200 CDi A/T Diesel
I am experiencing ESP failure when i take a right turn. This also them limits my speed to 120 km per hour. if i reset (turn ignition off and on again) the problem goes away however it returns after driving for a bit.

Could this be a sensor or are we talking serious damage?

TIA

Thanks ive checked the tyre pressure as well as the brake light switch. Ive also taken it to a specialist who has now advised me its the steering column. But as i understand there are 2 sensors im the steering column can one just replace sensors or is my only option to replace steering column? I phoned the merc workshop and its R1500 just to do a diagnostic.

Thats uncalled for. Ive already spent 20k on the car in the last 2 months. And ive done 2 diagnostics just so by the way. Ive had my car for 5 years and you dont want to see my invoices of work done. Move along please!
