The error is definitely reported by the CAN controller and therefore
it's due to an electrical problem on the CAN bus. Well, I'm not a CAN
*hardware* expert and therefore I can't tell if such error do harm or
can even be ignored. Googling for "can arbiration lost" revealed:

http://www.cancapture.com/knowledgebase/18-cancaptureknowledgebase/33-kb-arbitration-lost-error-messages.html

which seem to answer you question to some extend.
