If you are a Honda Civic owner, you may experience a situation where your vehicle refuses to start. This could happen for a couple of reasons. Firstly, check your brake system. If the electronic parking brake gets stuck, a "check brake system" light will come on, and you might find it difficult to depress the pedal. Another potential cause could be a dead battery triggering the warning. In that scenario, you will need to either jump-start your battery using cables or get a replacement. The cost for a new battery can range between $80 and $285, and professional labor for replacement may cost between $40 and $184.

    If your Honda Civic won't start while displaying the "Check Brake System" message, it's probably because the brake is being held in position by the car's anti-theft system.
