2011 Acura RL Onboard Computer Issue

Hey I hope everyone is having a great day,

Today I was driving in my 2011 RL Advance(CMBS/ACC), and all of a sudden the blasts several warnings on the instument panel saying(CHECK ACC, CHECK CMBS, CHECK AFS, and CHECK AIRBAGS). Then the car tells me to restart the vehicle, so I did and the problem came back after about a minute. Now, after a few minutes the problem hasn't come back. I left the car idling for 15 mins on my drive way, and there was no problem. Also, a bunch of light light up on the dash which is very strange. However, the problem isn't happening now. The car told me to go to the dealer, I will be doing so.

I'm essentially having this problem:

The car also displays on the NAV system about the several issues with Airbag, ACC, AFS, and the DRL. So this problem is very stange. My problem is identical to that of the video. But it started happening today, and hasn't happened since.

Any advice, has anyone else experienced this? Clearly the car is giving out false warnings, as the ACC, AFS, and DRL are all perfectly operation. And the Airbag light isn't on.

Any help? Thanks in advance

When was the last time you replaced the battery? These are all symptoms of a weak battery. The RL is very sensitive to weak power source, so battery and/or alternator would be where I would focus.

Along those lines, of course, check for loose battery terminals and/or corrosion if the battery is fairly new.

Good News! After about a 50 mile combined trip, so a total of four restarts of the vehicle. The car has not displayed the warning CHECK EVERYTHING lights and messages on the MID, like it did yesterday. I will withhold final judgement of the problem for the balance of the month. I'm glad the problem hasn't persisted, at least for now. I'm hoping the car gives no false messages like it did just yesterday. If it does so again, to the dealer I go.
