Keyless system
#2
First off, since it is a 2011, you might still be under the 4/50 warranty. If so, your local Acura dealer will be able to get that looked at under the warranty.
The message you see indicates there are error codes stored in the system. It could be as simple as low battery voltage causing erroneous error codes to something more involved in the keyless system that is really having problems.

It will tell you exactly which component of the keyless system is faulty.
I had the same message come up on my display. I ran diagnostics with HIM and found out that my rear trunk keyless antenna is shorting. Bought the part, replaced it in 20 minutes and the message went away.

I would suggest you purchase the HIM (honda diagnostics system) from Ebay. It is not that expensive (roughly $130) and it is really useful for all kinds of diagnostics on Hondas and Acuras:

I had some bad experiences in the past buying these gadgets from non-authorized retailers. Especially when it comes to re-programming the on-board computers. Adding to that, returns for refunds if these gadgets don't work are next to impossible. Not to mention customer service that is horrible. Again I speak solely on past experiences buying these things from fleabay.
The legitimate tablet HDS and connector sold by Honda goes for over $3,000 and comes with a annual subscription for updates. Thats the safe way to go about it acquiring that tool.
So careful what you buy and if you do buy cheap careful what you update your on board computers with. Diagnosing may be harmless but attempt any re-programming or setting parameters may not be safe.
PS. to the original poster: take a drive to the closest dealership and ask them to reset the computer using their own legitimate software and tools. Sleep well at night after.

Anyways, I was able to register the remote start with no issues whatsoever and in no time.

^^ I was thinking the same thing.. I will also add, if you haven't already done so change the remote batteries if they're old.
