2007 HONDA FIT
MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THIS SUNDAY MORNING WHEN I DRIVING OVER 60 MPH WITH A/C AND RADIO ON MY CAR JERKS, I HAVE ALREADY HAD A MAJOR TRANSMISSION REPAIR THAT COST OVER $500 AND THE CAR CONTINUES TO MISFIRE I WAS TOLD THE CAR WAS FINE BY THE DEALER RUSTY WALLIS. I HAVE A SERVICE HISTORY BOOK OF EVERYTIME I HAVE EVER HAD ANY TYPE OF SERVICE MY CAR HAS EVER HAD SINCE I PURCHASED IT. I DO EVERYTHING THAT THE DEALER TELLS ME I'M INFORMED I M SUPPOSED TO DO FOR THE CARE OF MY CAR. I GET MY BOOK STAMPED WITH THE SEAL FROM RUSTY WALLIS EVERY TIME I GET SERVICE, EVEN JUST AN OIL CHANGE. MY HIGH BEAMS TURN ON WHENEVER I USE THE SIGNAL LIGHTS. I JUST REPLACED MY BATTERY AND NOW MY A/C WILL NOT WORK. I'M TAKING MY CAR INTO RUSTY TO HAVE THE LATEST RECALL THE AIRBAGS FIXED THIS SATURDAY. I HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON MY CAR AND ALL WORK ON MY CAR HAS BEEN AT THE PLACE I BOUGHT IT RUSTY WALLIS. THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN GOOD WITH ME, BUT I REALLY THINK SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ENGINES AND FUEL/ ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THE FITS 2007. I JUST DON'T WANT TO KEEP SPENDING MONEY ON A PROBLEM THAT WILL NEVER BE FIXED. I'M AFRAID THAT MY CAR IS GOING TO STOP WHILE I'M ON THE FREEWAY FOR AN ISSUE I HAVE ALREADY PAID TO HAVE FIXED. I HAVE HAD MAJOR TUNE UPS, BRAKES, TRANSMISSION AND GASKETS ENGINE STUFF DONE EVERY TIME I WAS INFORMED MY CAR NEEDED IT, BUT THE ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED. I WOULD PREFER AN IMPARTIAL ENTITY REVIEW THE SITUATION AND GIVE ME THE FINDINGS, BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I'M SPENDING MONEY AND THE ISSUES STILL PERSIST. I HAVE PAID FOR MOST THINGS ON MY CREDIT CARD FOR A TRACK RECORD OF THE YEARS. MY CAR IS ONLY 9 YRS OLD. RUSTY WALLIS HAS BEEN GOOD WITH ME, I THINK THE DEFECTS ARE FACTORY MADE FROM HONDA. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS THIS STUFF JUST HAPPENING MY CAR OR ARE OTHERS HAVING THESE ISSUES TOO.

2008 HONDA FIT
MY 2008 HONDA FIT SPORT BEGAN HAVING A "SURGING" ISSUE FROM THE 2ND WEEK AFTER I BOUGHT IT NEW IN 2008. I WOULD TAP THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN AND THE ENGINE WOULD SURGE. HITTING THE BRAKES A SECOND TIME USUALLY STOPPED IT BUT THROWING IT INTO NEUTRAL HELPED TOO. I REPORTED IT FREQUENTLY TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND SAID THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT. IT CONTINUED FOR 4 YEARS, AND THEN SEEMED TO STOP FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS. THIS PAST MARCH, IT STARTED AGAIN, AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED. THEN IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS COMING DOWN THE HILL I LIVE ON. THE CAR WAS IN 2ND GEAR (USING THE SHIFTER), AND I TAPPED THE BRAKES TO SLOW A BIT. THE ENGINE BEGAN ACCELERATING AND GOING FASTER. THE BRAKES DID NO GOOD; NEITHER DID THE EMERGENCY BRAKE; FINALLY, THE BRAKES GAVE OUT AND MY FOOT WAS FLAT ON THE FLOOR. I FINALLY PUT IT INTO PARK AND IT SLOWED DOWN TO A STOP. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NO PROBLEM, EVEN THOUGH I PUT IT INTO PARK WHILE MOVING, NOR COULD THEY FIND ANY REASON FOR THE ACCELERATION. AMERICAN HONDA IS NO HELP EITHER. THEY DID BUY THE CAR BACK, BUT HAVE SOLD IT AS A USED CAR, AND I FEAR FOR THE PERSON WHO PURCHASED IT. I'M SURE THEY DID NOT LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM FURTHER. ON YOUR WEBSITE, I FOUND SEVEN (7) SIMILAR REPORTS FOR THE 2008 FIT AND FIVE (5) MORE FOR THE 2009. OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM ON EDMUNDS.COM FOR SEVERAL YEARS, YET THE HONDA SALES MANAGER DID NOT WANT TO LOOK AT THE PRINTOUT I GAVE HIM. HERE ARE THE NHTSA ID#S THAT REPORT A SIMILAR PROBLEM: 10523098, 1049187, 10425811, 10344231, 10323002, 10317179, 10282552, 10266390, 10368077, 10329557, 10308988, 10280593. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER - IT IS VERY SERIOUS. *TR
