It shows a problem on booster control module first, and then ABS control module problem was followed in a month after fixing first one. I am second owner and bought it 2 years ago. There has not been problem at North Carolina, but after moving here peoria il where is colder in winter here 2 years ago, "checking brake system followed by checking ABS, power steering, ima etc" about 5 checking signs showed on the panel. The mechanic said it was booster control module problem. After he replacing it, there was no problem for a week. And then when I drive slippery ground surface in a rain, and slipped a little, the same symptom with continuous working moter on ABS assembly showed off. Even when the key out, the moter was still working so that there is no electrical power left due to discharging in the morning. The mechanic said that it is ABS control module problem so that he is fixing it now.
When the car becomes low on gas you receive a low gas notification via the indicator (icon on the left side of the dash) and a notification via the information screen, which you can acknowledge and while the indicator stays on (normal) you can clear the information screen (and audible beeps) and have the information screen go back to showing the odometer or some other information. This was the status on my 2012 hybrid until ~90 days ago. When the vehicle now receives a low gas warning (verbal beep and low gas screen on the information screen) I acknowledge the error and clear the information screen so it goes back to showing odometer, etc. But while continuing to drive the system will activate the low gas warning (beep and screen) continuously (I.e., 25 or more times in 10 mile period) similar to a seat belt warning. This have never happened in 2 years of previous ownership. Honda service people believe this is normal and that every Honda has this "feature" but they will not show me in any other car. Nobody would buy a car with this knowledge.
