2012 Honda Fit. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle extreme wind sensitivity. The consumer stated while driving 70 mph in dry conditions, with a strong wind hitting the side of the vehicle from the east, all of sudden a gust nearly ripped the steering wheel out of his hands and in a split second, he found himself blown into the right lane and headed toward the shoulder at a 45 degree angle. The consumer believed the vehicle was unsafe at any speed over 60 mph.
From the first year the Fits front light covers are so scratched from nature visabity when driving at night is dangerous. I have had them buffed and shined with the same result happening. The factory tint is so bubbled and faded disability out of the rear window is a safety hazard. The paint on the roof and hood looks like it has completely faded off and they continue to get worse. I inquired at year 3 about these issues and was told it is not warranted. That I could pay someone to replace the tent, headlight covers and get it repainted. It is very hard to see put if the window and at night with the headlights.
