Mazda 3 2012 problem while driving

Hey i wanna throw my problems out to any suggestions that other mazda drivers may have gotten so here it is.

I bought my mazda 3 2012 I Touring with about 400mi. It is now at 23k.

1. After about 10k mi There was hesitation when accelarating in 1st/2nd gear on automatic, I push the gas pedal down and it takes a couple seconds to actually accelerate.
2. When my car is at a red light it idles roughly, like a vibration/shaking.

3. This is the most important issue. Just yesterday i was driving my car and going about 40mph when the Steering Wheel light, ABS light, and Check Engine light came on. My steering wheel locked up automatically, When i hit the gas pedal i could press it all the way in and the car barely moved, went past 5k rpms and finally started moving slowly at full gas pressed in. I pulled over on the side completely turned off the car, took the keys out, turned on the car fully again. My check engine light still on, all other lights off. I was able to accelerate again without a problem and drove the car home. I got in the car this morning for work, the check engine light was off. I got the same thing again driving home from work, rinse and repeated the steps of turning the car on and off and drove it home.

Any suggestions??

I'd wait for the CEL to come back on, then take it to a mechanic and have the code read.
