Default VSA warning light lit and drives in " limp mode".

My 2010 Honda Accord LX had recently undergone extensive work due to a front end collision. Radiator condenser, fan belt, fans and other parts related to a front end collision were replaced. Car has been operating normally with the exception of the louder noise of the fan belt when accelerating since the work has been done less than a month ago. But as of yesterday, the VSA light turned on when trying to drive the car. The car also didn't let me exceed 35 mph which after reading other posted may have been in limp mode. I'm asking for a little help to make sure I ask all the right questions to the repair shop to make sure they cover the angles associated with my car trouble. Hopefully I provided enough info to receive some helpful feedback.

Welcome to HAF.

A few things I would do is check for codes - many parts stores will do this for free. WHile at the parts store, many also will check the battery and charging system. Check the condition of the serp belt that drives the alternator. Check the battery connections to be sure they are clean and tight.
