Honda Fit problems
The Honda Fit (Japanese: ホンダ・フィット, Hepburn: Honda Fitto) or Honda Jazz is a small car manufactured and marketed by Honda since 2001 over four generations. It has a five-door hatchback body style and is considered a supermini in the United Kingdom, a subcompact car in the United States, and a light car in Australia. Marketed worldwide and manufactured at ten plants in eight countries, sales reached almost 5 million by mid-2013. Honda uses the "Jazz" nameplate in Europe, Oceania, the Middle East, Africa, Hong Kong, Macau, Southeast Asia and India; and "Fit" in Japan, Sri Lanka, China, Taiwan and the Americas.
Sharing Honda's global small car platform with the City, Airwave, first-generation Mobilio, Freed and HR-V/Vezel, the Fit is noted for its one-box or monospace design; forward-located fuel tank; configurable seats that fold in several ways to accommodate cargo in varying shapes and sizes— and cargo volume competitive to larger vehicles.
Honda released hybrid petrol-electric versions of the Fit in Japan in October 2010 and in Europe in early 2011. In 2012, Honda released the Fit EV, a limited-production all-electric version based on the second-generation model in the United States and Japan, and was widely regarded as a compliance car.
The fourth-generation model released in 2019 is currently sold in Japan, Europe, China, Taiwan, South Africa, Brunei and Singapore. Starting from 2020, the model was phased out in most Southeast Asian and Latin American countries to be replaced by the larger City Hatchback, while it was withdrawn entirely from the North American market due to falling demand within the subcompact segment.

Common Honda Fit problems
The Honda Fit is a popular subcompact car known for its practicality, affordability, and fuel efficiency. However, like any vehicle, it is not immune to problems. Here are some of the most common issues reported by Honda Fit owners:
- Broken Front Door Armrest: Another common problem reported by Honda Fit owners is a broken front door armrest. This issue can happen due to wear and tear or excessive force on the armrest. The armrest may crack or break, which can be frustrating for drivers and passengers. This issue is most common in first-generation model years from 2007-2010 and can affect the car's resale value.
- Moisture Damage to the Air-Fuel Sensor: Moisture damage to the air-fuel sensor is a common problem reported by Honda Fit owners. This issue can happen due to exposure to water, such as driving through deep puddles or heavy rain. When the air-fuel sensor gets wet, it can malfunction and cause the engine to run poorly or stall. The affected model years are 2007 and 2014 Fits.
- Ignition Coil Failure: Ignition coil failure is a relatively widespread issue among the 2007 to 2016 Honda Fit models. Once the ignition coil fails, it can lead to driveability issues like stalling, loss of power, and stuttering. Many owners had to replace their coil packs to address the issue.
- Uncomfortable Seats: According to numerous reports, the Fit interior isn't a comfy place to be. Many drivers experienced neck and back pains due to flat and unsupportive seats. Some people had to buy seat cushions and headrests to address this problem.
- Fuel Fill Door Doesn't Open: Owners of 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2014 Honda Fits complained that their fuel door refuses to open. This issue can be resolved by getting a revised fuel fill push lifter from Honda.
- Transmission Problems: Some Honda Fit models, particularly the earlier ones (2007-2008), have experienced issues with the automatic transmission, such as harsh shifting or transmission failure.
- Engine Problems: Issues such as excessive oil consumption and engine misfires have been reported, notably in the 2009-2013 models. The 2015 and 2016 models also faced recalls due to potential engine failures caused by connecting rod bolts that could loosen.
- Water Leaks: Some Fits, especially in the 2009-2013 range, have been known to develop leaks into the interior, often due to issues with the door seals or the air conditioning system.
- Suspension Issues: Complaints about premature wear of suspension components, such as shock absorbers and struts, have surfaced, especially in the 2007-2013 models.
- Dashboard Warning Lights: The 2015-2016 models have had issues with various dashboard warning lights illuminating due to electrical power steering failure.
If you're experiencing any of these problems with your Honda Fit, it's important to get your car checked out by a certified mechanic as soon as possible. Regular maintenance and inspections can also help prevent these problems from occurring in the first place.
Is the Honda Fit a reliable car?
The Honda Fit Reliability Rating is 4.5 out of 5.0, which ranks it 4th out of 21 for subcompact cars. The average annual repair cost is $390 which means it has excellent ownership costs. The severity of repairs is low while frequency of those issues is average, so major issues are uncommon for the Fit.
How long does a Honda Fit engine last?
With proper maintenance, a Honda Fit can last up to 200,000 to 300,000 miles without needing any major repairs. This translates to having a lifespan of 13 to 20 years. See also Front-Wheel Drive, Rear-Wheel Drive, or All-Wheel Drive?
Are Honda Fits expensive to fix?
A Honda Fit will cost about $4,915 for maintenance and repairs during its first 10 years of service. This beats the industry average for popular hatchback models by $1,849. There is also a 14.68% chance that a Fit will require a major repair during that time.
Why did Honda stop making the Fit?
While the Honda Fit was a popular car for more than a decade, in the late 20-teens, sales started to decline. Eventually, Honda decided that it wasn't worth producing anymore. It should be noted, however, that the Honda Fit has remained in production in other countries; in many places, it's called the Honda Jazz.

- VIN: 3HGGK5G87JM
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: Check engine light with Code P219A. Honda dealer performed a cylinder A/F Imbalance test and recommended that the Fuel injectors be replaced. This appears to be a common problem with Honda Fits. The injectors are just as bad the recalled 30520-5R0-013 injectors. Honda claims the 2018 vehicles do not have those injectors. I beleive this vehicle has the same defective 30520-5R0-013 injectors.

- Date Complaint: 2024-10-18
- VIN: JHMGK5H87HS
- Components: ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: The car will stall while on the freeway. Had fuel injectors replaced and still does not drive well. I am now being told I may have to look at the fuel pump which should be working automatically. I have now invested almost 3,000 on a car with less than 90,000 miles on it that is maintained religiously so that nothing happens to it.
Honda Fit 2017

- Date Complaint: 2024-10-13
- VIN: JHMGK5H74HS
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Had to replace fuel injectors and fuel joint pipe. The warranty on fuel injectors has been extended for 2015-2016 Honda Fits. Please help this get extended to the 2017 Honda fit because it is the same part and the same problem.
Honda Fit 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-09
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-10
- VIN: 3HGGK5H67KM
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: When it gets cold, the odometer/gas gauge intermittently glitches. It might come back on or it might stay blank. If you cannot read your mileage, you can’t get accurate repair service. If you cannot read your gas gauge, you could break down on the highway because you ran out of gas and did not know it. This problem seems to occur across Honda Fits ranging from 2015-2020 and even Honda CR-Vs from a Google search. A few people have found that it has something to do with loose soldering which leads to improper expansion? This needs to be investigated and covered under a recall. Most people wouldn’t be able to afford thousands of dollars.

- Date Of Incident: 2023-10-10
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-09

Honda Fit 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-07
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-07
- VIN: 3HGGK5H87JM
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: It is part of the engine I do know what exactly it is the VTC and diagnosed through Honda at their Golden, Colorado location. Other car makes and models from them have recalls with these exact issues except mine but it is the exact same issue. This has been an ongoing issue since I bought the car back in 2017 but the car was finally able to consistently make the noise enough to be diagnosed.
Honda Fit 2020
- Date Of Incident: 2024-09-10
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-01
- VIN: 3HGGK5H85LM

Honda Fit 2018
- Date Of Incident: 2024-09-16
- Date Complaint: 2024-09-30
- VIN: 3HGGK5H93JM
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
- Summary: Multiple systems failure simultaneously. Lane Keep assist system, adaptive cruise control, braking system failure and automatic emergency braking as well as forward collision warning. This appears to be due to some fault within the system that multiple owners experience — many mentions of this issue in online forums. When taken to Honda they cannot even determine why but just start suggesting replacement of various systems to include the camera/radar but cannot guarantee this will fix. This is a safety issue and happens through no fault of the vehicle owner it just pops on one day and remains intermittent.
Honda Fit 2018

- Summary: The contact owns a 2019 Honda Fit. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable.

Honda Fit 2007
- Date Of Incident: 2024-03-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-09-25
- Components: STEERING
- Summary: The contact owns a 2007 Honda Fit. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the power steering warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the power steering became inoperable. The contact called the local dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 210,000. The VIN was not available.
Honda Fit 2019
- Date Of Incident: 2024-09-20
- Date Complaint: 2024-09-23
- VIN: 3HGGK5H41KM
- Components: FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
- Summary: We just had the fuel injectors fail for the 2nd time on this car, which has about 85,000 miles on it. The fuel injectors were originally replaced in 2021 by the dealer and have once again failed according to the dealer’s diagnosis. Honda America’s extended warranty for some Fits for this same issue needs to be extended to other model years. It is unreasonable to have to replace fuel injectors twice within this short of a time span.

I really enjoyed everything about the fit, but unfortunately my back started to hurt after a 20 minute test drive. That's why I'm considering other cars. If Honda were to improve the seats, I would buy this car in a heartbeat. I hope Honda receives this message and takes it into consideration.

This is a great car, especially for driving around town. However, it can be a bit noisy on the highway, revving at 3400 at 110kph. But don't worry, if you can get used to the high revs, the car is awesome! I usually just turn up my stereo and enjoy the ride. :)

This car isn't the quietest, but it handles well on reasonable - or better - road surfaces. Make sure to keep the tires and wheels regularly balanced and rotated. If you're a light-footed driver, you'll be pleased with the great MPG. On a recent 280-mile road trip, I got an impressive 41 MPG. The cargo space is fantastic for its small size, and the seats are comfortable. While the acceleration isn't the best, that's not the main reason to own one of these cars. In terms of reliability, it's been excellent, with the exception of a small A/C leak in June 2019. The original Dunlop tires lasted an impressive 63,000 miles and have since been replaced with Yokohama tires. As of June 2022, the overall MPG is 37.2 for all driving. Although as of June 2023, the overall MPG has decreased to about 33, it's important to note that I'm not driving nearly as much as I once did. Recently, I replaced the rear shock absorbers at 97,000 miles, but the car is otherwise doing well. The car has now reached 100,000 miles and continues to run well.

The newer model of Fit gets better gas mileage and looks a little sportier. While it's a great car, I understand your frustration with the lack of entertainment center options and support for Android Auto and similar products.

I love the versatility of this car! It's so easy to fit large or tall cargo by simply flipping the seats up or down as needed. Plus, it can fit up to five people with room for their things at the back.

Hi there! I wanted to share some feedback on my experience with the car. I'm 5.6' and unfortunately, I found the seat to be uncomfortable even when adjusted as far back as possible. Additionally, when the seat is adjusted to the highest position, it's difficult to see the front of the car when parking. Getting in and out of the car was also a bit of a challenge with the seating positions adjusted to the max levels. Another minor issue I encountered was the open tank level being positioned in a way that requires me to open the car door and get halfway out to reach it. Lastly, I noticed that the windshield wipers only clean half of the windows, both front and back. Additionally, the heaters were slow to come on even when set to max output. Thanks for taking the time to listen to my feedback!

I recently purchased a car from a Honda dealer and was informed that I could connect my phone to the screen with $100 worth of cables. I was initially skeptical about this, but I thought that perhaps Honda was not up-to-date with the latest technology for connecting phones to cars. However, after purchasing the car and cables, I discovered that the Honda Link feature only connects your phone to Bluetooth. Unfortunately, the Honda Link feature does not connect your phone with the cables to anything in the car. Even if you pay $59.95 for the navigation app, it still uses the data on your phone to show you the map. The infotainment feature is essentially a radio with a screen, and you cannot see what songs are playing on your phone. To use your phone within the car, you need to attach a phone holder to the screen. Overall, I found this to be disappointing.

After driving 5,000 miles over the course of three months, I have found that I am getting 41.5mpg using the tripmeter/fill up method, while the car reports 44.4mpg. Although I have encountered a few issues, such as fleas that I was able to get rid of with a flea bomb and daily vacuuming for a week, and the HVAC emitting unpleasant smells for the first few minutes of running, which I have addressed with A/C disinfectant and taken to the dealer twice. I am hopeful that the issue has been resolved after the second service, but if it persists, I will request a refund. Additionally, I discovered that the cabin air filter installed at the plant was incorrect. Despite these setbacks, I am still enjoying my car and look forward to future adventures!

Hey there! I was wondering if you could help me out. I've noticed that my air conditioner compressor goes on and off while the a/c is on, and it's causing a huge difference in temperature. The dealer said that this is normal after checking out my car, and they tried getting the moisture out of the unit, but it still does this. Do you happen to know if this is normal? Also, my gas mileage is actually running about 28mpg combined, which isn't as good as I expected. Any thoughts on how to improve it? Thanks!
