ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
There's an electrical defect on the 2019 Honda Fit dashboard. The Electrical part of the dashboard that shows the Odometer, fuel level, speed and temp glitches, especially when cold. I bought my vehicle in March of 2022 form a Honda Dealership. It happened a few times towards the end of the 2022 when it became cold in Los Angeles. But as its been cold the first few months of this year, it has happened much more often. It glitches (see attached image.) and sometimes does not come on at all (see attached Photo) This is a safety hazard as I can not see how much fuel I have left in the vehicle. My car is just passed my 1 year dealership warranty. There are many forums online of others reporting the same thing, that priced the repair at $1100. I filed a complaint with Honda, but the costumer service with the repair department said there aren't other records with them- that this is an issue which is false as I have found 100s of owners online complaining online, asking about what to do about it.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The multi information display which includes the gas gauge, odometer, and repair reminders began having problems around September 2022. The display would blink on and off, sometimes go completely blank or sometimes show jumbled characters. When I first noticed this the weather was extremely hot. Later in the fall, when it began to get cold, it would not work normally until the temperature rose above 30 or so. I consider this a safety issue mainly because of the gas gauge not being visible. The solution by Honda was to replace it but because my car was just out of warranty, it was going to cost over $1100. The dealer confirmed that they had seen the problem before and asked Honda about paying for the repair. Honda only agreed to pay half of it.

The multi information display which includes the gas gauge, odometer, and repair reminders began having problems around September 2022. The display would blink on and off, sometimes go completely blank or sometimes show jumbled characters. When I first noticed this the weather was extremely hot. Later in the fall, when it began to get cold, it would not work normally until the temperature rose above 30 or so. I consider this a safety issue mainly because of the gas gauge not being visible. The solution by Honda was to replace it but because my car was just out of warranty, it was going to cost over $1100. The dealer confirmed that they had seen the problem before and asked Honda about paying for the repair. Honda only agreed to pay half of it.

Defect Description:
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS:CANISTER
Potential Consequences:
The contact owns a 2019 Honda Fit. The contact stated that while refueling the vehicle, he stepped away from the vehicle then returned and noticed that fuel had splattered out of the fuel tank filler neck. The contact then stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated however, after driving a half mile, the check engine warning light turned off. The contact was concerned that the vehicle was designed to drain the extra fuel but failed to operate as designed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that fuel had entered the canister and the charcoal filter and the canister needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 17,081.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
There is an electrical problem with the electronic display used for the fuel gauge, odometer, and driving range indication. The safety concern is running out of gas while in a hazardous location on the road. I believe the problem has been around for at least two years. It only happens when the car is cold. The display is restored at some point after the car is warm. I have always assumed it was a loose connection that I would get charged a lot of money to fix. Some posts online indicate this problem does exist with others. One suggestion was even that it had to do with soldering and therefore would be an expensive repair to replace at least one part. If this is really a recognized problem, it would be nice if Honda would do a recall of whatever is faulty. For now I am just living with it and hoping it won't fail all together.

Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
When the vehicle is cold (in the 4 years I have owned this car-bought new), this month is the first incidence this has occurred (Three times so far) The fuel gage, trip meter, odometer, clock and MPG display will show gibberish when the car is first started and then either keep the gibberish or then show nothing. When the car is warmed up, the gage operates as normal. The speedometer thankfully is not affected. Nor is the tachometer affected. While most of the gages being intermittently out is more of an annoyance, I'd REALLY like to know how much fuel I have, especially as the odometer/trip meter likewise die. I live in Louisiana. This problem would be a real concern in a more northern state. Everything I've read consistently stated that the problem was due to soldering developing cracks due to repeated expansion/contraction due to heat/cold. That in turn causes intermittent failure in cold weather.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Engine light came on and it was brought to the dealership and I was told all fuel injectors need to be replaced and it wouldn't be under warranty. The car has 65,000 miles on which is just over warranty, but I should still not have had to replace these yet. There have been other problems with the fuel system with the fuel pump recall and they have extended the warranty on fuel injectors in other Honda vehicles, which leads me to believe this is a greater problem than just my car and it should still be covered by Honda.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Multiple warning lights come on and won't turn off. We have taken to be repaired twice at a non-Honda repair shop. No issues with any of the sensors could be found and everything was reset. We just picked up our car for the second incident on 10/28 and now on 10/31 it has happened for the third time. This seems very unsafe as I am not sure if the safety features will work properly of if it will have a major malfunction while driving and possibly cause an accident.
