2016 Honda Fit Complaint Log

The digital information display on the right side of the speedometer goes blank in cold weather. The display will alternate between blank and gibberish, where you cannot read. Once the interior of the car warms up, the display will return to normal.

ODOMETER/FUEL GAUGE HAVE STARTED TO DISPLAY RANDOM CHARACTERS. AT FIRST IT WAS INTERMITTENT AND IN REALLY COLD WEATHER, AND WOULD SORT ITSELF OUT AFTER 5-10 MINUTES. BUT IT HAS BECOME MORE COMMON AS SOON AS THE CAR STARTS AND NOW WILL NOT SORT ITSELF OUT. THERE IS NO ACCESS TO THE CAR'S MILEAGE OR TO EVEN KNOW HOW MUCH GAS IS LEFT IN THE TANK. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE 2015-2016 HONDA FITS, BUT HONDA IS NOT REGARDING THIS AS AN ACTUAL ISSUE/UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A DEFECT.

MOLD THRU OUT CAR ON INSIDE HEADLINER HEALTH HAZARD AND PERSONAL SAFETY IN CAR DUE TO GAP IN CARS HATCHBACK.

When it is cold outside the gauge cluster fails due to a loose solder connection on the instrument panel circuit board. This is a common and know issue with 2015/2016 Honda Fits.

The odometer/fuel gauge of the instrument panel has display issues. Intermittently blanks out with no info on it, especially when I first start the car on cold days. Takes like 20 mins of driving on the highway before it warms up enough for the display to flash a few times, display gibberish, and then suddenly come back on. Does not affect other functionalities of the car fortunately. However I have no clue how much fuel I have left and in worst case scenario would need to wait for the low fuel warning light to come on and hope I can make it to a gas station.

WHEN TEMPERATURES OUTSIDE ARE COLD. THE GAS GAUGE CLUSTER WHICH ALSO DISPLAYS ODOMETER MILES STARTS OFF AS LIT BUT WILL THEN GO BLANK. AS THE VEHICLE WARMS UP THE CLUSTER WILL FLICKER ON /OFF UNTIL ULTIMATELY RESUMING BACK TO NORMAL. DEFECTIVE FUEL/MILEAGE GAUGE CLUSTER IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT CAUSED BY TEMPERATURE RELATED ISSUES, USUALLY DURING OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES OF 45 DEGREES OR LESS. NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILE AGAINST THE MANUFACTURE BUT THE ISSUE HAS YET TO BE RESOLVED. IT IS NOT A WIRING OR CAR COMPUTER RELATED ISSUE AND THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN NARROWED DOWN BY A NUMBER OF HONDA DEALER MECHANICS TO BE A DEFECTIVE GAUGE CLUSTER. REPLACING THE CLUSTER WOULD RESOLVE THIS ISSUE HOWEVER, PARTS AND LABOR ARE OVER $500. VEHICLE IS A 2016 HONDA FIT WITH LESS THAN 11,000 MILES.

WATER RANDOMLY LEAKING INTO THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR MATS WHEN RAINING

FUEL INJECTORS FAILED (KNOWN ISSUE) CAUSING ME TO BE STRANDED WITH KIDS. CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. DEALER REFUSED TO COVER UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY REQUIRED IT FOR THE MILEAGE AT THE TIME. NEXT YEAR CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED CAUSING ME TO FAIL EMISSIONS TEST. DEALER REFUSED TO COVER UNDER FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY , CLAIMING THAT FUEL INJECTORS CAUSE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER TO FAIL AND IT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER ITSELF HAD NO DEFECTS. CAUSING POLLUTION, SAFETY, AND PERFORMANCE ISSUES. STRANDED WITH INFANT. COMPANY VIOLATING CLEAN AIR ACT AND PROFITING ON IT.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DISPLAY STOPS WORKING OR DISPLAYS GIBBERISH RANDOMLY. THIS PREVENTS ME FROM KNOWING HOW MUCH FUEL IS LEFT IN THE CAR, SOMETIMES FOR DAYS. THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS ALSO THE ONLY PLACE TO SEE THE ODOMETER AND KEEP TRACK OF MILEAGE FOR SERVICE INTERVALS. THIS LACK OF INFORMATION AFFECTS MY SAFETY. THIS OCCURS WHEN STARTING THE CAR, OTHER TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, ON CITY AND HIGHWAY. IT STAYS OFF OR UNREADABLE FOR HOURS TO DAYS.

I RECENTLY TOOK MY FIT INTO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO ADDRESS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THAT DAY IN PARTICULAR, THE VEHICLE HAD A DELAYED ACCELERATION WHEN I WAS HITTING THE GAS PEDAL ON A LOCAL CITY STREET'SOMETHING IT HAD NOT DONE EVER. AT THE TIME OF MY SERVICE, IT WAS EXPLAINED TO ME THAT I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST RUN TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. I RECEIVED A CALL LATER THAT DAY INFORMING ME OF A 'CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE' THAT WOULD REQUIRE A COIL, SPARK PLUG AND FUEL INDUCTION SERVICE. WE PROCEEDED WITH THE REPAIR AND THE FOLLOWING MORNING I RECEIVED A LINK TO VIEW AN INSPECTION OF MY VEHICLE THAT REPORTED MY VEHICLE AS 'OVERALL STILL LIKE NEW''AND THAT WAS GREAT UNTIL LATER THAT AFTERNOON I WAS NOW TOLD THAT UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I NEEDED MORE REPAIRS. I NOW NEEDED FUEL INJECTORS AND WAS TOLD THAT HONDA WOULD NOT JUST REPLACE THE DAMAGED ONE IN CYLINDER 3 BUT WOULD PROCEED TO CHANGE THEM ALL'SOMETHING I THOUGHT WAS ODD AND COSTLY ($2300) TO SAY THE LEAST! MY SERVICE ASSOCIATE STATED THAT NOTHING WAS UNDER WARRANTY SO THE EXPENSES WOULD BE OUT OF POCKET. AFTER LOOKING INTO DOCUMENTS ON HONDA'S WEBSITE, IT SEEMS THAT EVENTUALLY HONDA IMPROVED THE INJECTORS ON LATER MODELS OF 2016 FITS. THE FRUSTRATING PART FOR ME IS THAT IT FEELS LIKE HONDA WANTS US TO BE OUT OF POCKET FOR AN ISSUE FOUNDED ON CRAFTSMANSHIP THAT IS NOT TO PAR WITH HONDA'S TYPICAL QUALITY. WHEN I ASKED WHY DO ALL 4 HAVE TO BE CHANGED WHEN ONLY ONE IS BAD, I WAS SIMPLY TOLD THAT ' WE WILL NOT JUST REPLACE ONE, ALL FOUR WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED'

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA FIT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER IN DENVER CO, WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A DEFECTIVE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. THE MANUFACTURER HAD YET TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000.

CAR WOULD NOT START INTERMITTENTLY FOR ABOUT A MONTH. SEVERAL TIMES IT TOOK OVER 15 MINUTES TO GET THE CAR TO START. DEALERSHIP STATES AFTER ANALYSIS THAT IT IS THE 'STARTER'. THEY SAID IT IS NOT THE STARTER SWITCH, ALTERNATOR OR BATTERY. A NEW STARTER INSTALLED WILL COST OVER $700. THIS IS HAPPENING TO MANY HONDA CARS THAT I'VE RESEARCHED ON THE INTERNET, BUT HONDA HAS NO RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. SOMETHING FISHY ABOUT THAT.

THE GAUGE THAT SHOWS MILES, OIL LIFE, GAS GAUGE, AND ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS DOES NOT COME ON ALL THE TIME WHEN YOU START THE ENGINE. YOU CAN BE STATIONARY, IN MOTION ON ANY STREET OR HIGHWAY. IT SEEMS TO SHOW A BUNCH OF JAPANESE WRITINGS AT TIMES. THEN LO AND BEHOLD IT COMES BACK ON. IT WAS STATED THAT THE CLUSTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, WHICH IS RIDICULOUS FOR A NEWER VEHICLE. YOU NEED TO MAKE IT RIGHT! THERE ARE MORE AND MORE COMPLAINTS, SO YOUR SITE IS POSTED TO FILE A COMPLAINT. I DO NOT POSSES THE TECHNOLOGY TO TAKE A PHOTO AND UPLOAD. PLEASE RECALL OR MAKE GOOD ON YOUR CLUSTER REPLACEMENT. IT IS AN ON GOING PROBLEM THAT STARTED ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO. MILEAGE CANNOT BE SEEN NOR OIL CHANGE, FUEL AMOUNT, OR ANY OTHER FUNCTION ON SCREEN WHEN IT IS OUT. IT HAD ABOUT 41,OOO OR SO WHEN IT STARTED. THE DEALER SAYS MY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED.

THE FUEL GAUGE AND ODOMETER ARE NOT VISIBLE DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THE SCREEN WILL GLITCH MAKING IT UNUSABLE AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT IS NOT CLEAR HOW MUCH FUEL IS REMAINING. DUE TO THE WAY THE CAR'S DISPLAYS ARE LAID OUT, THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO CALCULATE OUT MANY MILES HAVE BEEN DRIVEN. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO THE CAR TO MAKE THIS ISSUE MORE THAN A DEFECTIVE PART INSTALLED BY THE MANUFACTURER. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE USING THIS CAR. I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE WITH A 2015-20 HONDA FIT. THIS HAS BEEN A CONTINUOUS ISSUE.

THE ODOMETER/GAS GUAGE FAILS IN COLD WEATHER. THIS CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN THE DRIVER CAN NOT ACCURATELY GUAGE MILEAGE (NEEDED FOR MAINTENANCE AND REPORTING), AND CAN NOT ACCURATELY GUAGE FUEL LEVELS WHICH CAN STRAND THE MOTORIST AND CREATE A BEVY OF SAFETY ISSUES.

THE FUEL GUAGE HAS STOPPED WORKING AT 35,000 MILES. IT IS BACKLIT BUT NO INFORMATION IN THE DISPLAY. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE DISPLAY QUIT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THEY CHANGED THE OIL AND RESET THE MAINTENANCE LOG AND IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN. WHEN I GOT HOME, THE DISPLAY WENT BLANK AGAIN.

AT ONLY 37,000 MILES, MY 2016 FIT STARTED HAVING TROUBLE UPSHIFTING AND DOWNSHIFTING EFFICIENTLY, AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD MY FUEL INJECTORS HAD FAILED, AND THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT CARBON BUILD UP ON THE ENGINE VALVES THAT NEEDED CLEANING. AT MY PERSISTENCE, HONDA EVENTUALLY DECIDED TO DO A GOODWILL REPAIR SINCE IT WAS ONLY 1,000 MILES OUTSIDE OF FACTORY WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2015/2016 FITS AND HONDA SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THEIR FUEL INJECTORS.

The gauge cluster that shows your mileage and fuel levels and maintenance schedule goes out intermittently or altogether blank. It started a couple years ago and at this time I only have 45,000 miles on it. Couple years ago it probably had around 30,000 miles on it. It mainly does it when it’s cold, but it has done it in the summer lately. It gets all sketchy or completely blank. Drive several miles, it comes back on. I’ve read ALOT of complaints. There are way too many complaints on this issue in very little mileage. It is very expensive to fix, and I should not have to pay that kind of money when there aren’t that many miles on it. I had to replace a starter about a year ago. Ridiculous. Like I stated above, I have 45,000 miles on the car at this time. I have had older cars and put way more miles on it and never had a starter problem. I think these matters need addressed and the consumers have it corrected by Honda at their expense. I’ve already had to spend $700 for a starter for a very low mileage car. What is my recourse? I need this fixed before it goes out completely and won’t know how much gas I have or when my maintenance needs to be done.

ONE DIAL ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL THAT SHOWS MILEAGE, ETC.. IS DISPLAYING IMPROPERLY. THIS HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IN COLD WEATHER. IT TYPICALLY IS MALFUNCTIONING WHEN I FIRST START THE CAR. THE DIAL CAN BE COMPLETELY EMPTY OR HAVE SOME DIGITS. THE DATA IS INCORRECT. THIS SEEMS TO GO AWAY AFTER DRIVING FOR A WHILE. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME BUT MOST TIMES.

THE DIGITAL DISPLAY IN THE DASH THAT SHOWS FUEL GAUGE, RANGE, ODOMETER, ETC.. WILL INTERMITTENTLY NOT DISPLAY PROPERLY. IT WILL EITHER DISPLAY IMPROPERLY IN A WAY THAT IS UNREADABLE, OR THE ENTIRE DISPLAY WILL GO BLANK WHILE REMAINING BACKLIT. IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN WHEN IT IS COLD OUT. I ALSO NOTICED IT INITIATE MORE DURING HARD ACCELERATION OR BRAKING, BUT IT CAN ALSO REMAIN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED AFTER I HAVE FINISHED MY COMMUTE. WHEN THE DISPLAY COMES BACK TO WORKING PROPERLY, IT SEEMS TO READ ACCURATELY AGAIN, BUT I DON'T WANT IT TO GO OUT COMPLETELY TO THE POINT WHERE I NO LONGER KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN MY VEHICLE OR HOW MANY MILES I HAVE DRIVEN BETWEEN MAINTENANCE.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON CONSTANTLY BECAUSE OF FAULTY FUEL INJECTORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH A NEW PART NUMBER (ALL 4 OF THEM). THE MPG HAS DECLINED. THIS ISSUES SEEMS TO BE WIDESPREAD FROM WHAT I READ ONLINE. HONDA HAS A TECH SERVICE BULLETIN REGARDING THIS COMMON ISSUE OF FAULTY FUEL INJECTORS.

2016 HONDA FIT WITH APPROXIMATELY 44,000 MILES. PROBLEM STARTED TO OCCUR IN EARLY DECEMBER OF 2019 AND HAS CONTINUED FOR THE PAST 2 MONTHS. PROBLEM IS THAT THE CAR IS UNABLE TO START. ON NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO START THE CAR, WHEN THE KEY IS TURNED ALL SYSTEMS ARE POWERED, BUT THE ENGINE WON'T CRANK. BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE TO ENSURE IT'S NOT THE BATTERY. THERE IS NO CORROSION ON ANY OF THE ELECTRICAL CABLES. THERE ARE MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS ONLINE OF OTHER HONDA FIT OWNERS ENCOUNTERING PREMATURE STARTER FAILURE. CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY INFORMED ME IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE DESPITE THE VEHICLE BEING RELATIVELY NEW.

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY IN 18 DEGREE WEATHER AT NIGHT, THE ODOMETER AND FUEL GAUGE DISPLAY (THE FURTHEST RIGHT SECTION OF THE 3-INSTRUMENT PANEL IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER) BLANKED OUT. IT CAME BACK, BUT BLANKED OUT AGAIN. TOTAL TIME OUT WAS APPROXIMATELY 4 MINUTES. WITH THIS TRIM VERSION (LX) IS IT NOT POSSIBLE TO OBTAIN AN ODOMETER OR FUEL GAUGE READING THROUGH ANY OTHER METHOD. A LATER ONLINE SEARCH INDICATED THIS WAS AN ISSUE FOR 2015-2016 MODELS, BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. I DID NOT OBTAIN PHOTOGRAPHIC PROOF BECAUSE I WAS TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNSAFE TO FIND MY PHONE IN THE DARK AND FIDDLE WITH IT TO TAKE A PHOTOGRAPH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA FIT. WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED, RESTARTED, AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PIEDMONT HONDA (4011 CLEMSON BLVD, ANDERSON, SC 29621 ,(864) 305-4173) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL INJECTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 10082125. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

BOUGHT A 2016 HONDA FIT EX USED LAST YEAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OF MULTIPLE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS. THEY TOLD ME THAT RATS EAT THROUGH THE ELECTICAL WIRING IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THEY ARE CLEARLY AWARE OF THIS ISSUE OF RODENTS BECAULSE OF THE SOY BASED WIRE COATING. IF HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE THAN WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY HUNDREDS MAYBE THOUSANDS TO APPLY A NEW WIRE COATING. I HAVE ANOTHER SITTING NEXT TO IT AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. HONDA, NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A BEARING A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT. ILL BE TALKING TO MY ATTORNEY ABOUT THIS ISSUE. PLEASE GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT THIS.

I HAD 4 EMERGENCY LIGHTS COME ON WHILE DRIVING IN MOTION LEAVING A GAS STATION. I THEN DROVE ON THE INTERSTATE AND HAD TO PULL OVER DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. WE TOOK THE 2016 HONDA FIT TO A TRUSTED MECHANIC AND HONDA DEALERSHIP AND BOTH AGREED THAT AFTER JUST OVER 58,000 MILES, ALL OF THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE BAD AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. BOTH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED FROM AND OUR TRUSTED MECHANIC AGREE THE FUEL INJECTORS SHOULD NOT BE GOING BAD AT THIS TIME. THE CAR IS 2.5 YEARS OLD, HAS HAD ALL ROUTINE OIL CHANGES AND NO CRASHES OR ISSUES. HONDA WANTS TO CHARGE $1,600 FOR ME TO GET THIS FIXED. MANY OTHERS ONLINE HAVE COMPLAINED OF THE SAME FUEL INJECTOR PARTS GOING BAD! THIS MUST BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY! HONDA KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE AND IS TRYING TO RIP CUSTOMERS OFF WHO DID NOTHING WRONG EXCEPT TRUST THEIR BRAND.

FUEL GAUGE DISPLAY WHICH ALSO INCLUDES MPG AND ODOMETER SHOWS GIBBERISH. THIS HAPPENS IN ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS.

CYLINDER MISFIRES DUE TO POORLY ATOMIZED FUEL. DEFECTIVE DIRECT INJECT FUEL SYSTEM BEGAN FAILING AT LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. CONTINUOUS APPEARANCE OF CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CAR ACCELERATES WEAKLY AND OCCASIONALLY LOSES POWER

WHILE IN MOTION, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS CAME ON (CHECK ENGINE, STABILITY ASSIST, ELECTRIC POWER STEERING, ETC.) . IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER, CALLED A TOW TRUCK, TOOK TO DEALER, AND LATER FOUND OUT THE FUEL INJECTORS WERE BAD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME! FIRST AT 27,000 MILES AND NOW AGAIN AT 44,000 MILES. JUST GRATEFUL I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY! SEVERAL TSB'S REGARDING THIS AND CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL?

THE LED ODOMETER DISPLAY, WHICH INCLUDES THE GAS GAUGE AND OTHER VITAL INFORMATION GEOS BLANK OR IS GARBLED AND UNREADABLE. THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY WHEN I FIRST TURN IT ON AND STAYS THAT WAY MOST OF THE DAY. SOMETIMES IT WILL START TO WORK AND SOMETIMES IT STAYS THAT WAY ALL DAY.

IN PROCESS OF PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT IN FRONT OF A BUSINESS, I APPLIED MY FOOT BRAKE AFTER WHICH MY VEHICLE FULLY ACCELERATED, JUMPING (AN APPROXIMATELY 12") SIDEWALK INTO A PLATE GLASS WINDOW. FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO INJURIES.

About a year or two after purchasing the car new in 2016, we noticed that the instrument panel right side which has fuel gauge, odometer, trip information and other key operating vehicle information would go blank or the digital readout would go haywire and turn into gibberish. This generally happened on cold mornings and the display would revert to normal within 10 minutes to one hour. We took it to dealer where vehicle purchased in Phoenix, who was unable to recreate the problem and therefore they did nothing. The problem has persisted since then but recently has worsened to the point where the display is blank almost all of the time and not working in hot weather as well. The only time I can see the gauges is when first starting car in morning, and then it often doesn't work to get to different functions one accesses by pushing a knob/button next to that display -- and stops working completely a short time later. I feel this is a dangerous problem because we can't tell how much gas we have in the car, can't determine mileage via odometer there and lack other key vehicle information that the manufacturer decided to put in a digital panel that is blank or goes blank most of the time. On my listing below of when this incident occurred, that is to indicate when the problem started happening, more or less. The incident has been ongoing since then. The problem started when vehicle had around 20-25K miles and we are now at 58K -- though it's hard for me to tell mileage because I can so rarely see the odometer. I believe odometers and probably fuel gauges are legally required to work in vehicles and mine has been faulty for years and during the warranty period. A recall is needed. Honda is charging more than $1,000 to replace these faulty displays on Honda Fits that are no longer under warranty, like mine, I am told.

I WAS IN REVERSE BACKING INTO MY PARKING SPACE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY GAS PETEL ACCELERATED DRIVING MY CAR SO FAST OVER A CURB AND INTO A STONE WALL. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY VEHICLE THAT REPORTED TO HONDA AMERICAN, BUT THE SAME MALFUNCTION OF GAS PETAL CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE AT A HIGH SPEED. REPORTED TO MY INSURANCE AND HONDA AMERICAN. MY CAR NOW IF I PUT IT IN DRIVE IT STARTS DRIVING ON ITS OWN. ALSO IN REVERSE IT STARTS DRIVING ON ITS OWN. I DON'T HAVE TO STEP ON THE. GAS PETAL IT MOVES ON ITS OWN. I AM AWAITING FOR HONDA AMERICA TO SEND A REPRESENTATIVE TO MY HONDA DEALER WITH ME TO INSPECT. I AM ASKING HONDA AMERICAN TO PAY REPAIR OF MY VEHICLE. $1,082.00. HONDA IS WILLING TO TOW MY CAR, BUT CAN'T PROMISE ME A VEHICLE WHILE BEING REPAIRED. HONDA AMERICA SENT SOMEONE TO TOW MY CAR, WITHOUT NOTIFICATION TO ME. I CANCELED THE TOW, FOR I HAD FRACTURED MY ELBOW AND NEEDED TO SPEAK WITH HONDA AMERICA. I AM WAITING FOR A RETURN PHONE CALL TO SO WE MAY GET MY CAR INSPECTED BY A HONDA REPRESENTATIVE. I WILL NOT PAY TO HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED, FOR IT WAS A MALFUNCTION OF THE GAS PETAL. OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM, BUT IT IS NOT LISTED AS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WHICH IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE.

Fuel gage display (including ODOMETER, time and temperature) has disappeared. Backlight on, but no information displayed. This is unsafe when 40+ miles away from a gas station and cannot see the neither the fuel gage or the odometer! First occurred in 2019, with around 40,000 miles, as the years pass it goes out for longer periods of time and more frequently, almost daily, sometimes for a few days.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA FIT. WHILE IN REVERSE, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. THE DRIVER LOST CONTROL AND THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A BRICK WALL. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED AN INJURED NECK AND BACK, WHICH DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. KELLY HONDA (540 LYNNWAY, LYNN, MA) WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID. *BF *TR

I NEED A NEW STARTER. I BOUGHT MY 2016 HONDA FIT USED 5 MONTHS AGO. IT NOW HAS 43,900 MILES. A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH THIS MILEAGE SHOULD NOT NEED TO HAVE THE STARTER REPLACED. I TRIED 2-3 TIMES TO START MY CAR BUT IT WOULDN'T START. NO CLICKING NOISE, NO NOISE AT ALL. I THOUGHT IT WAS A DEAD BATTERY AND WHEN JUMPED IT STARTED RIGHT AWAY. SEVERAL MORE TIMES IT WOULDN'T START THE FIRST TIME BUT THE 2ND AND 3RD TIME TRYING IT TURNED OVER AND STARTED. MY NEIGHBOR TOLD ME IT COULD BE ELECTRICAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10-15 TIMES AND AFTER TRYING 3-4 TIMES IT STARTS RIGHT UP. I FINALLY TOOK MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC WHEN TESTED HE SAID IT WAS THE STARTER AND SAID I NEEDED A NEW ONE. IT WILL COST $500.00 FOR THE NEW PART PLUS LABOR. WELL OVER $700.00 DOLLARS. THANK GOODNESS I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WILL HAVE TO PAY $44.00 BECAUSE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ONLY ALLOWS "AT COST" FOR PARTS. ANOTHER THING, AFTER GOING THROUGH THE CAR WASH OR AFTER A RAIN STORM THE INSIDE OF THE DOOR PANELS ARE FULL OF WATER BUT LUCKILY THE WATER DOESN'T ENTER THE CAR AS I'VE READ ON OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS MODEL HONDA. ONE MORE THING WHILE I'M COMPLAINING...A LOT OF HIGHWAY ROAD NOISE. FOR THE PRICE HONDA COULD AND SHOULD BE MAKING A MUCH BETTER VEHICLE. ON THE PLUS SIDE, IT IS EASY TO DRIVE, MANEUVER AND PARK.

PERTAINING TO THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT IF A TPMS SENSOR IS REMOVED FROM THE CAR, THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO ALERT THE DRIVER VIA A WARNING LIGHT. MY 2016 HONDA FIT HAD ALL FOUR TIRES AND RIMS REPLACED THAT DIDN'T HAVE TPMS SENSORS INSTALLED AND NO INDICATOR HAS ILLUMINATED IN THE VEHICLE. (IT'S BEEN ALMOST TWO MONTHS SINCE THE SENSORS WERE REMOVED)

ON 9/20/2018 AROUND 5:15 PM IN WEST VALLEY CITY, UT WHILE DRIVING DOWN A FAIRLY EMPTY HIGHWAY (MOUNTAIN VIEW CORRIDOR AND 54TH S. )THE SUNROOF/MOONROOF GLASS OF MY 2016 HONDA FIT SHATTERED. THERE WAS NO DEBRIS AND NO IMPACT. THERE IS NO APPARENT IMPACT FRACTURE.

TAKATA RECALL- I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, WHERE I REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE AND MY VEHICLE WAS DEEMED TOTALED, BUT MY AIRBAGS "FAILED TO DEPLOY", THEREFORE IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THEY ARE FAULTY AND THIS WAS NOT A GOOD EXPERIENCE, PLEASE CAN YOU HELP ME BECAUSE MY VEHICLE IS NOT IN YOUR LIST OF "RECALLS" AND WHY NOT IF THIS OCCURRED TO ME???

DRIVER DOOR AND LEFT REAR PASSENGER DOOR BOTH LET RAIN IN RESULTING IN PUDDLING ON FLOORS. DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED TWICE, BOTH UNSUCCESSFULLY TO REPAIR SEALS INSIDE DOOR PANEL THAT PREVENTS LEAKAGE INTO INTERIOR OF VEHICLE. INTERIOR RUGS ARE SOAKED AND HARD TO DRY SINCE AIR CAN NOT BREATH UNDERNEATH. LEADS TO MOLD AND MILDEW WITHIN VEHICLE. INTERIOR WINDOWS FOG UP AS MOISTURE IS TRAPPED WITHIN BODY OF VEHICLE. BEGAN ON 7/27/18 AND CONTINUES TODAY 10/7/18.

2016 HONDA FIT. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. ALSO, THE VOLUME WOULD ELEVATE LOUDLY ON ITS OWN. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA FIT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS CONDENSATION IN THE HEADLAMPS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO YOUNG HONDA (1855 N MAIN ST, LOGAN, UT 84341, (435) 222-0589) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS INTENDED PER SERVICE BULLETIN: A-15-060C (EXTERIOR LIGHTING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED AGAIN THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PERFORMING AS INTENDED. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT AS PER FMVSS108, PAGE: 718 UNDER HUMIDITY TEST PROCEDURE, THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MEET VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARDS FOR HEADLAMP MANUFACTURER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,500.

MOISTURE BUILD UP IN HEADLAMPS. HONDA CLAIMS THAT MOISTURE BUILDUP INSIDE THE HEADLIGHT HOUSING IS NORMAL AND NOT SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED/ADDRESSED. PER HONDA ANYTIME THERE IS A REDUCTION OF TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE THE HEADLAMP IT WILL CAUSE CONDENSATION INSIDE THE HEADLAMP. MOISTURE INSIDE THE HEADLAMP CAUSES REFRACTION OF THE LIGHT AND REDUCES NIGHTTIME VISIBILITY. SO ANYTIME YOU DRIVE AT NIGHT AFTER THE TEMPERATURE HAS DROPPED YOUR VISIBILITY IS REDUCED DUE TO THE MOISTURE.

UPON EXITING MY STATIONARY 2016 HONDA FIT IN MY DRIVEWAY, MY LEG HIT THE DOOR GUARD, WHICH CAUSED AN INJURY REQUIRING 19 STITCHES.

TODAY MAY 3RD 2018 VEHICLE TRAVELING ON CITY STREET WHEN ALL ICONS TIRE PRESSURE MAINTENANCE A MALFUNCTION CODES ALL THE CUTE LITTLE ICONS ARE LIT UP ON THE DASH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE VEHICLE WAS IMPAIRED AND THEN THE WHOLE SYSTEM SHUT DOWN AS I'M STILL TRAVELING IN MY VEHICLE MOVING. I CAME TO PAWN SOMEONE IN MY VEHICLE WITH A COMPUTER LAPTOP HOOKED UP TO MY CONTROLS OF MY VEHICLE I RAN AFTER HIM HE LEFT SO FAST HE FAST TRANSFER DATA CHORDS. I DID GET MY CELL PHONE OUT AND VIDEO RECORD HIM AND I CHASE HIM TO HIS VEHICLE WHICH I GOT THE LICENSE PLATE TYPE OF CAR VIN NUMBER AND VIDEO OF HIM RUNNING. CANNOT RELEASE PHOTO VIDEO UNTIL FBI CONFIRMS

AFTER TWO FLATS THAT ESSENTIALLY DESTROYED THE TIRES. UNABLE TO REPLACE TIRES ON CAR THAT WE BROUGHT NEW BECAUSE THEY ARE ON LONGER MADE BY FIRESTONE. ABNORMAL WEAR NOTED ON TIRES AFTER ONLY 24,000 MILES.

ONCE THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS SET BY THE TPMS THE VEHICLE OWNER CANNOT CLEAR IT SINCE HONDA HAS REMOVED ALL MANUAL AND ELECTRONIC RESET OPTIONS FOR THE OWNER. WITH THIS LIGHT REMAINING ON THE OWNER EFFECTIVELY HAS NO LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM. CORRECTING TIRE PRESSURES AND DRIVING THE REQUIRED 60 MILES OR MORE DOES NOTHING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA FIT EQUIPPED WITH FOUR FIRESTONE FR SERIES 740 TIRES, SIZE: 185/R6011584T (NA). WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL FLOPPING NOISE AND THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE BLEW OUT. THE TIRE INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE DOT NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000 AND THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,400.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA FIT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE IT FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALL STAR HONDA (6141 S 27TH ST, GREENFIELD, WI 53221) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN THAT MANNER. IF THE VEHICLE WERE PARKED FOR SEVERAL DAYS, THE BATTERY WOULD FAIL, WHICH WAS AN ONGOING FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ACKNOWLEDGE A MANUFACTURING FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

AFTER 10,000 MILES SEVERAL DEEP CONCENTRIC GROOVES ARE WORN INTO THE FRONT BRAKES. MY DEALERSHIP, WALSH HONDA (LAURA MEEKS), RESPONDED TO MY EMAIL CONCERN (WITH PICTURES) THAT THESE ARE "NOT UNCOMMON AND NO SAFETY CONCERN". WALSH HONDA SCHEDULED ME TO REPLACE MY REAR BRAKE SHOES ON 9/5. WALSH HONDA OFFERING TO REPLACE REAR BRAKE SHOES (WHICH ARE PERFECTLY FINE) TO FIX DEEP FRONT ROTOR GROOVES IS NOT ACCEPTABLE OBVIOUSLY.
