Transmission Failure problems of the 2015 Honda FIT

I bought a 2015 Honda Fit. It has 23,000 miles and it is out of the 5 year warranty. The transmission has failed and Honda refuses to accept blame for a faulty transmission installed at the factory. My car is not the only one with this problem. Honda is aware of this and still allows an unsafe car to be driven without recalls or warnings. Honda wanted almost $ 5,000 to repair this , but the local transmission shop gave me an estimate of $1754 for a used 2017 transmission. . .

Transmission failed very suddenly at 77,600 miles with no prior signs that it was having issues. Luckily car was stopped at a stoplight, otherwise this could have been very dangerous. Car was immediately immobilized. Car was towed to the local Honda dealer and then to a transmission shop where the attached pictures were taken. Hundreds of metal shards were found inside the pan.

Tl-the contact owns a 2015 Honda Fit. The contact stated that while drivng approximately 65 mph, the vehicle's transmission failed without warning. The contact stated that the vehicle gradually decreased in speed. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and had the vehicle towed the following day to rock Honda - 16570 south highland avenue, fontana, California 92336 (909)770-8400 - where it was determined that there was internal damage within the transmission and that an unknown sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 8,460.

After 95000 miles, transmission failed with very little warning. For about 25 miles on city streets, the car bucked at speeds under 30 mph. Stopped at a store, and could not leave parking lot because transmission just stopped completely. I had done all of the scheduled maintenance at Honda dealerships, and I purchased the car as new.

While driving on an interstate at a steady highway speed, I lost all control to accelerate. The vehicle had to be coasted to the shoulder to avoid the potential for an accident. Auto dealer confirmed the transmission had failed catastrphically and that a new transmission would be needed for the vehicle. The dealership also stated that I, as the consumer did nothing to contribute to this event - they could not explain how it could have happened so early on. The vehicle was well-maintained. At the time of this writing, it is currently owned for only 2. 5 years and has 80,000 miles of which 90% are highway miles. The car was towed under owner's car insurance-provided roadside assistance. The repair process is not yet complete and thusdocumentation can and will be provided later if needed,.
