Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On numerous occasions, the abs warning light has illuminated for no apparent reason. to honda's credit, they have looked over the vehicle a number of times and pulled codes, but no obvious defects were found. the codes were reset. the problem presents more in colder weather. recently, however, the issue has come with the red brake warning light. no obvious issues (leaks, fluid level, spongy feel, etc.) have been detected. the light can be coaxed into going off by restarting the vehicle (sometimes) and other times it will go off by itself - usually leaving the abs warning light on. the problem, again, presents itself more in cold weather, and appears to be electrical. while the brakes appear to work and look excellent mechanically, it is unnerving that the issue has thus far been undiagnosed and resolved by honda. *jb
