HONDA FIT 2011 car safety problem was reported on Oct 02, 2011.HONDA FIT 2011, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . i purchased my second honda automobile three months ago: a brand new 2011 honda fit with less than 10 miles on it. just drove to dallas to see my grandkids and coming back, the air conditioning went out. i took it into don carlton honda this morning - and they are telling me that a "rock must have gone through the grill" and punctured a hole in the compressor - the cost? $780!!! now, after researching on the internet, i find that this has been a complaint since 2009. i hesitate to call this a "racket" but hello???? i even discovered that some people have to rig a screen to prevent the rocks from coming into the engine. this is a defect in the design that needs to be fixed. i would like to know how many technical service bulletins have been issued regarding this defect. to have a 3 month old 2011 automobile have to have air conditioning replacement is outrageous. i purchased a brand new honda so that i would not have repair bills on my limited income. *tr.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JHMGE8H54BS.

Honda Fit 2011 Service Brakes Review #10520251

HONDA FIT 2011 car safety problem was reported on June 17, 2013.HONDA FIT 2011, manufactured by Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . after applying the brakes hard enough for the anti-locking braking system (abs) to engage which brought the vehicle to a full stop, the front disc brakes did not immediately release upon taking the foot off the brake pedal. the brakes remained fully engaged until the accelerator was depressed (about 1/2 accelerator throw) which was sufficient to overcome the engaged brakes and the vehicle started to roll. at this time, a "popping" sound was heard simultaneously as the front brakes released. the sound and the immediate release of the brakes was similar to that of when a vehicle is moved for the first time after it has been sitting for some time (days or weeks) in a wet/humid climate and a rust build up has occurred in and around the brake pads or drums. highway conditions at the time of the incident were sunny and dry. ambient air temperature was about 90 degrees. the terrain was flat, and the vehicle had only been driven for approximately 10 minutes with light braking at the occasional red light. this incident occurred on a main thoroughfare in relative heavy traffic in order to avoid a vehicle who unexpectedly entered the highway at a slow speed . the subsequent delay in getting my vehicle to move almost resulted in an accident where vehicles approaching from behind did not expect to find a stopped vehicle in the road and were forced to stop suddenly themselves. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 20395 miles.
