At 6:00 pm last Friday, I drove my 2007 Honda Fit over a low-lying parking barrier left out in the middle of a parking lot. Upon hitting the barrier, my engine rpms went out of control and the car would not stop in spite of the fact that I had my foot jammed on the brake. To avoid crashing head on into a concrete wall, I turned and hit a parked car. My own car did not stop until it was high-sided on another, properly placed, parking barrier. The car has been towed and I am not aware if the defect has been identified or repaired.
The contact owns a 2007 Honda Fit sport. While driving 55 mph, the vehicle lost power, sputtered, hesitated, and performed as if a cylinder was misfiring. When the rpms exceed 3,000, the contact must slow the vehicle down so that it will drive normally. The vehicle has been at the dealer for one day. They performed a diagnostic, but found no failures. The vehicle is in the same condition and the contact does not feel safe driving. In addition, the coil packs need to be repaired, which he assumed to be the cause of the failure. The spark plus have already been replaced. The coil packs are on backorder and no one has the parts available. The hesitation of the vehicle has been occurring for approximately one year. The failure mileage was 45,000 and current mileage was 112,000.
