Automatic Emergency Braking problem #1

These lights just came on emissions system problem and electric parking brake problem.

Warnings problem #2

On may 11, 2024, while driving my 2017 Acura Tlx on a local city street, multiple dashboard lights suddenly came on. Since that time these lights began to come back on more frequent and often will go into a limp mode. I have had the vehicle inspected at my local Acura dealership only to be told that the vehicles rear paws actuators and control unit need to be replaced at a cost of around $8,000. They also informed me that a recall for this issue was only for the 2015 Tlx and rlx models but there could be a recall for my model year at some future date. I find this to be unacceptable as I have found out there are multiple instances of this same issue happening with many other Acura owners.
