The front passenger side axle shaft (cv axle) on my manual 2009 Honda Fit snapped off while in first gear and driving at regular speed for this gear in a parking lot (under 20mph). . It broke at the edge of the rubber damper on the shaft. The drivers side axle is rusted as well but has no damper and does not appear to have stress lines/faults at this time. This was the original part on the car from date of purchase. Car has 135000 miles on it.
