Noticed damp/wet carpet under rubber floor mats on Nov 15th 2011, noted a moldy smell. Cleaned car dried out carpet. Noticed rear carpet very wet after rainy period Dec 21 2011. Pulled up carpet, water all over top hump were seat brackets attach to car frame, carpet was soaked all way to front seats. I feel this may be a structural issue and safety issue. Over on miles for warranty to cover. Schedule with local dealership.
My Honda Fit repeatedly stalls from cold engine starts. This has been happening regularly and randomly for the last several months. It will stall both when at a stop (such as at a stop light or sign) and at slow speed, such as when pulling out of a drive or backing up. This stops happening once the engine warms up. I have taken the vehicle to two mechanics, neither of whom has been able to find the problem. I would have thought this to be a problem with just my vehicle and not bothered to report the problem to safecar. Gov, except that when I do an internet search about my problem, I find that many, many other owners of 2008 Fits are having the same problem. There is also a "stall" issue recall for 2009-2010 Fits. Thank you.
Honda Fit 2008 brakes failure to stop during braking. Noise during braking grinding / loosening of brake pads when braking. Went to Honda for brake inspection per my non-Honda mechanic, to replace calipers. Honda technician says there is nothing wrong, that I just needed new brake pads. First time replacing them since I bought the car. Mileage was at 38,386. Paid for new pads. Date was Dec. 29, 2011. Today first oil change and brake check since pads were change, wearing of pads are still uneven and brake noises still prevalent, even at from 20 mile per hour braking to stop.
