2018 Honda Fit

On [XXX], my Honda Fit started to jerk, and then all the warning lights started flashing on my dashboard. I didn’t know what was happening and with all this happening I could not see my speed only on the Octometer. When this first began the car also began to jerk. I immediately pulled over and stopped the car. I left it rest and restarted it and everything appeared normal again. I went about ten miles, and it started to reoccur again but not with the jerking. Warning lights continue to blink on the dashboard. I then turned around and went to the nearest Honda dealership to have it checked. They looked at the issue and said it would have to be checked by their computer and were unable to do then. They assured me it would do no damage to the car and continue to drive it and they could book me in a week. Since this was not my usual Honda dealership I decided I would call them on April 25th in the morning, which I did, and they made an appointment for that Wednesday. This continued in my car till I was able to have appointment. The appointment was set up on APRIL 30 at 1 1 am. I had friends follow me up for the appointment as that dealership was about fifty miles away. For $170 they were able to analyze the issue, this money would be put toward any amount that was needed to fix the issue. There was an issue the multipurpose camera unit (electronic failure) and a part had to be ordered and would come to the amount $1,761.42 to have this fixed. I had no choice but to have it repaired. I then asked the service manager does this happen a lot and his reply in front of one of my friends was that this had happened to six cars in the last two weeks, but they were not Honda fits but were Hondas. I left the Honda there overnight and it was repaired May 1, 2025. Many have questioned why this should have occurred and especially with the statement the service manager made. I am [XXX] and Honda was recommended to me. This is my first Honda. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION A

The right side gauge in the dashboard (fuel gage, odometer, mpg, etc) goes blank or shows giberish intermentently, especially when cold. Currently the display has been permanently blank for some months now. Reading in forums, this is a VERY common problem with 2015 and newer Honda Fit and Honda refuses to acknowledge its a common issue and thus no recall. Not knowing what your fuel level is a very big safety concern. Honda wants $1200 or more to fix.

My fuel gauge display malfunctions whenever the weather is too cold outside, causing the screen to go blank. It remains blank or glitches gibberish words until the screen returns to normal or stays frozen with gibberish language. I've noticed that the fuel gauge display works fine if I'm driving before 8 am during cold mornings, but it starts to malfunction or flicker until the display is frozen or blank once it's past 8 am. This problem has made it difficult for me to know when I'm low on gas as I commute a long distance for work. It's especially difficult during the cold winter months when my fuel gauge display is blank or malfunctioning 95% of the time. I've been experiencing this issue for about 3-4 years now whenever the colder seasons approach. I've been quoted $1000 to replace the entire dashboard by the Honda dealership when this issue wasn't a problem caused by me as other Honda fit owners have experienced the same concerns.

digital display with mileage, gas maintenance information intermittently fails or appears scrambled. Could possibly be connected to temperature but not consistent. It is a safety issue in that you don’t know how much gas you have and you cannot check maintenance information. This has been happening intermittently for about 2 1/2 years.

Honda is not replacing the fuel pump on these vehicles. They are stating that the fuel pump has to fail before they replace it. If the fuel pump fails while someone is driving on the highway, there is a strong likelihood that they could crash. Honda has sent out recall flyers to take your vehicle to any local dealer and they will replace it for free. I have called every dealership within 50 miles of the D.C. area and none will replace the recalled fuel pump until the car breaks down.

My vehicle has been inoperable since 2023. The dealership refuses to repair the fuel pump and all other issues, per the manufacturers recall. Steve Allain at Honda of Covington reported to me that the vehicle would not re-start if turned off. The leadership at the dealership (Kyle Mitchell) and Courtney Gullien communicated to me that the car was operable and the fuel pump was repaired, but will not provide service records that document this information. Tim in the parts department has communicated to me multiple times that no one from the dealership has ordered any parts related to the fuel pump recall for my vehicle. The manufacturer refuses assist with this matter and send someone from corporate to inspect the vehicle after multiple requests. The check engine light provided warning, along with a loud burning smell from the vehicle. The insurance company also refused to send a representative to inspect the vehicle. The issues with the stalling of the vehicle, not starting upon turning the key, and foul smell has been an ongoing issue since purchase. The previous dealerships claimed that they repaired the vehicle. The fuel pump is the component that has been failing. The vehicle has been inoperable and at the dealership since April 2023.

Digital odometer and fuel gague does not display, or displays scrambled letter/numbers. It appears to be related to temperature. When it is warm outside or the car warms up it will display, but id the car just started or it is cold out side it will not display at all or will be scrambled. Pounding on the dashboard sometimes causes it to turn on. This is an extremely common issue that i am seeing online from other honda fit owners and has been happening for the past 6 years from what i have found. Affecting 2015 models to the last models made. It is a safety issue to not be able to read your fuel level. And the odometer needs tor be read in order to see when oil needs to be changed and other services/maintenance.
