“This car was in an accident, it was rear-ended by another vehicle. This Honda FIT was stopped in traffic at a construction zone in suburban cary, nc when it was hit from behind by a small truck that was going approx. 45+ MPH. The impact pushed the FIT forward into some construction materials. The truck driver was found fully responsible for the crash and was not injured. For the FIT, air bags inflated for the passenger side but none for the driver. Fortunately, the driver was the only person in the FIT. …”

NHTSA complaint #10892716, filed 2016-08, 15,000 miles

“2013 Honda FIT. Consumer writes in regards to air conditioner and front seat issues. The consumer stated the AC cycled down when the outside temperature was 80 or above, when she has been on the road for as little as 30 minutes. The AC was cycling off just when she needed it most. The front seats were uncomfortable. The consumer had to add expensive gel cushion to the seat. It helped, but it pushed her forward making it difficult to get her right knee past the steering column as she entered and exited the vehicle. …”
