2009 Acura TL 3.7 AWD Disco Warning Lights

I've had my battery, alternator and starter replaced in the last year. Recently, all of my warning lights (check engine ,ABS, oil level, VCS) have been lighting up every time I drive the car, only taking a break when I am at a constant highway speed. They flash and the warning chime goes off incessantly. I took it to Autozone and used their OBD computer. Received the following messages:

"Antilock Brake System Control Malfunction"
"Battery Voltage High"
"Engine Control Module Powertrain Control Module Relation Malfunction"
"Battery Voltage Malfunction"

A mechanic that is trusted by a friend thinks the voltage regulator in the newly installed alternator is to blame.

Anyone have any other input?

well, the only way to find out if it's the voltage regulator is by testing it/swapping it for a new unit.
test/swap out alternator

Tell which brand of alternator did you buy so I can stay away from it.
