EPC warning

[seat_newbie]

HI, I own a 1.0 115hp FR version the past 5 months and have only registered 4.5K km so far on my Ibiza which I like so far.
Two days ago the EPC light came on and Start/stop failure, fortunately close to my place.
I didn't notice power loss, although I drove it conservatively.
I parked and turned off the car and started again and EPC was still there.
Next day was off and again appeared in the return close to my place (approx. 10Km distance). Again today indication wasn't there.
I will go to official SEAT service tomorrow as it is closed during the weekend but did anyone face something like this?
Can be something minor? Can battery charge cause this error indication to come on?
Because if stuff have to be replaced in such small usage is a big letdown.

I hope your problem was resolved but anyway I had the same thing happening to me twice, the first one at 7k km (July 2020) and the second at 11k km (May 2021).
Since both of them were under warranty I went to SEAT and they told me that the problem was being caused by an excess of voltage going to the headunit (??), being the only way to solve it by updating the software. Supposedly in September 2020 they were going to call every owner which had previously stated that flaw but it never happened. When it happened for the second time they did the update right away so I'm quite sure you have the same issue.

For me they said was gas pump issue which was changed under warranty. Since then seems OK. I hope was just a defective part and face no major issues as I like the car and want to keep it…
