All warning lights on
Just picked up new 2019 RDX Advance SH-AWD this past Tuesday. This morning (Friday), while accelerating on highway, all warning lights turned on. The center instrument display repeatedly cycles through warnings about all the various systems (Brake, AWD, LKAS, RDM, etc...) having problem, with instruction to contact dealer. Car appeared to continue to drive and function fine, even while this was happening. After I arrived at work, I turned off engine and restarted. But all warning lights were still on after the restart.
Called dealer, and earliest appt could get was for Monday morning.
One other oddity I noticed this morning was when I tried to remote start the engine with the key fob, it didn't work. (I had successfully done this before, on previous days.) So not sure if this early indicator of whatever caused the warning lights to all go on while driving...

Update:
Friday afternoon driving home from work, only two warning lights were still on (Brake System and Power Steering). After I picked up my daughter and restarted the car, all warning lights had turned off. Was hoping for the best, wondering what to tell the dealer Monday.
But Saturday morning, the same thing happened again when accelerating on the highway. All warning lights turned on and stayed on. Same exact scenario as Friday, I was accelerating above 65 mph when it happened. At least now, I know how to repro it. Monday morning when I take the car in, if the warning lights have turned off by then, I'll just be sure to accelerate above 65 mph right before getting to the dealer.
Also, key fob remote engine start is still non-functional; hasn't worked after that first successful try a few days ago.

Update:
Acura dealer found and fixed the problem. They found a small metal fragment (about size of a rice grain) on the magnetic encoder left front wheel speed sensor. That somehow triggered all the warning systems when the car got up to about 67 mph. After they removed the metal fragment, they completed 16 mile test drive and verified problem was fixed.
As for they key fob remote engine start problem, that turned out to be silly operator error.
