NHTSA Complaint #11311634 — 2016 HONDA FIT

AT ONLY 37,000 MILES, MY 2016 FIT STARTED HAVING TROUBLE UPSHIFTING AND DOWNSHIFTING EFFICIENTLY, AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, AND WAS TOLD MY FUEL INJECTORS HAD FAILED, AND THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT CARBON BUILD UP ON THE ENGINE VALVES THAT NEEDED CLEANING. AT MY PERSISTENCE, HONDA EVENTUALLY DECIDED TO DO A GOODWILL REPAIR SINCE IT WAS ONLY 1,000 MILES OUTSIDE OF FACTORY WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2015/2016 FITS AND HONDA SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THEIR FUEL INJECTORS.
