Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The abs light has been coming on in my car for a couple of months. i have taken my car to the dealer (its still under warranty) 4 times. the last time which was this week they told me that there was a code in the system and they cleared it out so the light would go off because if they take the whole system out and replace what the code says the problem is and the light comes back on it will end up costing them about $500.00 to replace the part. this morning i was coming to work and the light came back on and i called honda and again he talked about it may cost them $500.00 if they replace the wrong part but to bring my car in and they will look at it, i told him that i could not leave my car running because i had to come to work this morning so the light will probably be off when i get back in it because when the light comes on if you turn the car off and back on it goes out. i asked him if i could drop it off and they could take it for a test drive to see if it comes back on so they can get the code out of it and he told me to drive it around and i told him that it was impossible because i have to work, so again i am driving with partial brakes. *jb
