Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I noticed some insulation missing from my engine in july 2016. I didn't think it was important until I went to my dealer in april 2017. They said it was mice and removed a nest. I came home which is 3 hrs away and noticed much more damage the next morning. Out of desperation I put 2 snap traps in the engine. I bought this 2016 Honda FIT brand new in nov 2015. I'm not sure the extent of the damage but I have lots of chewed insulation and some wires chewed on.”
NHTSA complaint #10971235, filed 2017-04, 4,000 miles“Digital lcd instrument cluster blanks out or displays gibberish under certain weather conditions. Possibly condensation near fuse box or bad solder joint. This is being reported by multiple owners for models 2015 and up. Problem causes blind driving without knowledge of remaining fuel level or mileage.”
NHTSA complaint #11404648, filed 2021-03, 53,000 miles“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.”
NHTSA complaint #11402931, filed 2021-03, 75,000 miles“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.”
NHTSA complaint #11130700, filed 2018-09, 15,660 miles“The tire pressure gauge (tpmg) on the dashboard comes on randomly. When reset it stays off for minutes then comes on again. It stays on even with correct recommended tire pressure in all 4 tires. The spare tire is not hooked up to this gauge. This car is mostly highway driven at speeds of 65 MPH when this occurs but also occurs randomly at other speeds. When the gauge comes on the tire pressure is always normal.”
