2010 Honda Fit. Consumer writes in regards to replacement parts not available to repair recall.
Takata recall my Honda 2010 Fit is metallic blue and the paint is fading. The entire roof is white. Large white spots on the hood and now fading marks on the side of the car. It is only 5 years old and in excellent shape. A 5 year old car and it looks 15 years old. The Honda dealership has not agreed at this time to pay for a full repaint job. They have agreed to pay 70% of the total billfor the roof and hood of the car. My concern is that they will repaint the roof and hood and not the back and sides and then they will fade. I also will need to rent a car while they are repairing the paint. This will bring my total close to $500. 00. This is not my fault and I believe a paint job should last more than 5 years. When I look around a parking lot and see cars older than mine with a perfect paint job I get frustrated. This is not right.
Hvac (heater/ac fan) does not work for speed #1-3, only works for high speed #4. Many owners of Honda Fit 2009 and later have this same issue. Why haven't there a recall?.
I was hit on driver side by a older Honda accord model vehicle year 2000 body type; the accord was making a left turn on a green light that just changed from red, so he wasnt going fast (im assuming) when he hit me while I was passing the intersection at about 49mph. I want to report the vehicle that I was driving is unsafe and handled poorly, lost total control, brakes and steering locked, rolled over four to five times hitting a traffic light pole; the stability of vehicle is very poor and engine, transmission everything fell apart under the hood. I am requesting for this matter to be investigated, im insured the car is here at my house for now, you have permission to come here to see it or work it out with my insurance company. Thank you and this is serious, you need to check out what happened through those intersection camera's on September 10, 2014 around 1030am, camino real & hwy 76, bonsall California.
Hvac blower motor works only on high speed (4). Speeds 1-3 don't work on the fan for ac, heat, or any of the various hvac settings.
Due to numerous errors in the navteq/nokia/here. Com navigation dvd update provided for many Honda models it is unsafe to use. It consistently misidentifies road and exits, and suggested exiting off a bridge where there was no exit. The disc provider offers no remedy.
At approximately 15332 miles on June 13 2013 the tpms light came on, advising that a tire pressure monitor had failed. It was replaced, but was not covered by warranty by jim white Honda in maumee ohio. . Less than 4 weeks later at approximately 16846 miles on July 13 2013 the tpms light came on again. It was replaced and was covered by warranty by holman Honda of fort lauderdale florida. These tire pressure monitors are required by law. Having two different tires fail within weeks of each other at such low mileage on a car that is rarely and carefully driven is a clear indication of some sort of defect. Calls to Honda customer service were pointless and the first failure cost $215. 93. I was never given the parts or told anything except that the parts "failed". As part of the tread act, because they are safety equipment I believe that defective tire pressure monitors should be covered by warranty regardless of the date of purchase, and I want to be reimbursed and a recall issued.
Since purchase 2010 I have noted a suspicion of vehicle's electrical system. I have spoken numerous times of this suspicion and issues of concern to friends and family and with dealership. Dealership told me they are unable to check the electronic system. . My suspicion began within a year of purchase ,with automatic door locks making unusual sound as if not enough juice to lock or open automatically to more concern of driving with a drag sense and feeling like going to stall at traffic lights approximately 2015? complaint form asks for exact mileage and year began. Date I entered is just over purchase date although the heat has been more of a serious suspicion 2015-2017 that I can recall; mileage of issues noted are guesstimate 0 miles through current 124,000 miles car periodically feels like will stall in traffic at stop light, and lack of power while driving at speeds 30-70 mph. It is common to feel like I am pulling a trailer filled with heavy rock as if a pull or drag on engine, sometimes like it is just going to stall while driving. I have had battery checked for more than 3 years when questioning why it driving this way and I am told ,the battery is ok. I have replaced battery 2x since 2010 for actual battery failure. The driver dashboard and driver foot area heat up to what has been noticeable and of suspicion to me, feeling like an unusual and dangerous level of heat to touch. To touch heating cooling knob for example or in area of dashboard and electronic knobs have been very hot. I had just seen online and read about a 2010 Honda Fit engine and engine cooling NHTSA campaign #11v101000 recall dated March 7, 2011. I am told by Honda and NHTSA that my 2010 Honda Fit is not included due to not being of same manufacturer of other Honda Fits of this recall. I am concerned that my engine issues that have been of my suspicion are related to this recall.
