general problems of the 2011 Honda FIT

The air bag light flashing saying airbag is off. The electrical system shut off, radio flashed on and off. The steering lost its power and the head lights shut off then everything would come back on. This happened multiple times, I could not control the steering, very unsafe and scary. Car is available for inspection upon request.

The Honda Fit has a known issue with door lock actuator. The car locks and unlocks several times now it just make a high squalling noise that prevent the car from being locked.

I don't know if my car stalling at a red light might cause a wreck if in motion. Sitting at a red light and my car just stalls for a second then right back on. Radio and lights go out for just a second. This has happened twice while sitting at a red light. Hope it doesn't cause a wreck while in motion.

Power steering failed multiple times while driving, and the radio cut out many times as well. When the power steering failed I veered into oncoming traffic and was unable to turn the wheel until it restored. Fortunately I was going less than 30mph, and avoided an accident. Upon researching this problem I see that many others have had the exact same issue. I am too afraid to drive the car as I live in a busy downtown area. This happened while driving in the city while traveling straight as well as turning.

The power steering cuts out intermittently for seconds at a time before coming back on while driving. No specific mix of speed or temp seems to cause it, it is random. The radio cuts out each time as well. I'm told this is a faulty eps unit or sensor and is a known problem with Honda Fits. When driving straight it has not been an issue but I've heard stories of peoples steering wheels locking in a turned position and this could obviously cause an accident.

The contact owns a 2011 Honda Fit. While attempting to enter the vehicle, the power locks failed to disengage and the manual locks failed. Roadside assistance was called and unlocked all the doors except the front driver's side door. The failure worsened to the point where none of the doors could be opened from the inside. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the actuator failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 105,000.

I was trying to park the Honda trying to aligin the car with the curb the wheel lock up on me two different time doing this also when I was making a sharp turn to back up and turn around it lock up on me the computer radio of car also went out said an error had occur.

After driving 20 miles through traffic with 1/2 tank gas and radiator temperature ok, no warning lights showing: turned right at intersection and lost all engine power (no throttle response), then all lights (headlights and dash). Steering became stiff. We think cd player stayed on. Luckily no nearby traffic and enough momentum to pull into nearby parking lot. Put car in park, turned key off and removed it. Replaced key and car started with lights ok. We've had this car for 1500 miles and this is the first time it's done this.
