Honda Fit Unknown Or Other Safety Report | Jan 18, 2011
Reported on Jan 18, 2011
| IN DECEMBER AFTER A HEAVY RAIN, THE DRIVE SIDE DOOR LOCK BECAME INOPERABLE - THE KEY COULD NOT BE INSERTED. I TOOK IT TO MY HONDA DEALER WHO CHARGED ME $220 TO RE-KEY THE LOCK. ON JANUARY 18, 2011 WE HAD ANOTHER HEAVY RAIN AND THE SAME THING OCCURRED. I WILL BE TAKING IT BACK TO THE HONDA DEALER TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. I WILL DEMAND THAT THIS REPAIR BE FREE OF CHARGE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW IN THE LOCKS THAT LETS WATER INTO THE LOCK AND RUINS IT DURING A HEAVY RAIN. | |
