The abs speed sensor on honda vehicles are placed in such a way that is breaks often. And when it breaks, it leads to multiple sensors going off which may cause the abs to lock up while braking normally, car accelerating unexpectedly.For me the speed sensor on the right wheel was broken. This lead the car to accelerate unexpectedly and then the sensors would go off. Car accelerating and braking in a weird way would definitely lead to some issues. And when you go to the dealership for this issue, first they won't be able to diagnose it. They will simple reset the codes and say uts an intermittent failure and charge you 100 dollars for nothing. Then you have to go again the other day with the same issue and then they tell you its speed sensor. I think that's a bad service and since honda knows of this beong common issue with how they have placed the sensor it should be recalled.

ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
Abs module failure. Abs Cruce control Stability control Lights on dashboard.
My Honda recently has had 10 warning lights pop up went in for oil change they couldn’t tell me the issue came back for another diagnosis and they are saying the engine has oil dilution. This is a known issue for this engine. But why does it affect abs, traction control, wiper sensor, auto high beam detection. , all of the lane assist , cruise control, early warning crash detection? This can be dangerous when you can’t quickly get the car into a dealership. And if it’s know issue they need a recall or free fix.
During driving of the vehicle and at various speeds all electrical systems will fail and all warning lights come on. This includes ABS, traction control, power steering, brake assist and more. When this occurs the vehicle becomes almost impossible to steer and has nearly resulted in an accident before. While the previous occurrence happened at approximately 35mph if this occurred on the interstate it would almost certainly result in a major crash and injury.
Tl* the contact owns a 2017 honda civic. Upon starting the vehicle from a ?cold start?, the check engine and ABS warning indicators illuminated. The contact purchased the vehicle used several weeks ago. The vehicle was taken to sunwest honda-mazda (1030 north coast highway, newport, or 97365, (541) 265-8547) where the contact was advised that the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 5,000. *tt updated 9/21/18
This is a 5-door hatchback in ex trim bought new 12/2016. Within 2 weeks electrical issues started, from xm tuner going out to main headunit going out on a intermittant basis. This disables all audio, bluetooth, climate controls, back-up camera, & lanewatch. "check tuner" shows briefly often. Occurs even when driving. Dealer unable to duplicate, because of this honda refuses repair. Tpms alert displays frequently, after a tire even a wheel repair/replacement. Per dealer & honda tech all 4 should be matching set @ time of service, or dealer can attempt hard reset. Software update recently done for this. Told to bring back to dealer if/when TPMS lights up again. Known poor android auto performance & apple carplay non-function, no repair at this time (software issues). "christmas tree" display - no ABS, traction control, electric steering, airbag malfunction, etc etc. No long-term resolution, per dealer "software issues". Groaning noise when turning wheels left or right from stop, per dealer & honda tech "normal operation". Sunroof glass breakage is at owner expense, not a warranty coverage item. Engine shakes/shudders on start, again "normal operation" per dealer & honda tech. Poor horn performance, per dealer only a single low note horn installed. Not loud enough to be heard easily. Owner expense to upgrade to better (louder) unit. Electrical glitches still ongoing almost 2 years now, vehicle has 20,000 miles. This 10th gen civic not reliable & may prove a safety concern long-term. Am unable to afford replacing this vehicle at this time. Honda customer service has been largely indifferent towards these issues, citing "unable to duplicate" even "software issues".
