Default System Check Issue

2013 w/ 67k miles.....I left for work this morning, which is about 15 minutes away, and I stopped in a parking lot close by my office because I had a bit of time to kill. I sat there in park with the car running for about 10 minutes or so. When I was leaving about a minute after putting car back in Drive and moving through the parking lot I notice that out of nowhere I have messages popping up on the gauge cluster to "Check ABS System", Check Headlight Leveling System", "Check BSM System", etc... The maintenance light is on as well as the traction control light and one other that I'm not familiar with. I pull over, turn the car off and restart it. The car goes through the System Check as normal and no messages are popping up. I drive maybe a 1/2 mile to my office and the same messages pop back up with the same gauge cluster lights.

I need to change the oil within the next 400-500 miles so I'm guessing that's why the maintenance light is on. The car seems to operate normal. Any ideas?

Check your battery? Has it ever been changed? Low battery voltage will throw all kinds of errors.

The battery was replaced this time last year. I dropped the car off at the shop last night. Hopefully, I'll get some good news later today.
