This has nothing to do with the engine - unless brake wiring was disturbed while working on the engine.
From the OWNER'S MANUAL:
Brake Assist
The Brake Assist feature is
designed to assist the driver in
stopping or decreasing vehicle
speed in emergency driving
conditions.

Trying to figure this out without having a code is like looking for a needle in a haystack. All Service Messages like this are generated due to a code being set, that code will tell you where to look for the problem and the specific diagnostic procedure for that code will help you isolate the problem. At least 45% of all codes that can be generated are not power train related, so, an OBD2 scan tool may not be able to read the code if the code isn't power train related. .
