Consumer Description
I bought this vehicle brand new in February of 2019. The right-hand side dashboard display does not work in cold weather and will eventually function when the interior of the car warms up. The right-hand side dashboard display contains vital safety related information, including the fuel gauge, servicing messages, and the odometer. When researching this issue on the internet, this is a common problem and is costly to repair. My vehicle is no longer under warranty and I do not want to incur the cost of repair. I am asking that a vehicle recall be instituted for 2019 Honda Fits regarding this safety related matter. As an aside, during my first year after purchasing this vehicle, when the vehicle was under warranty, the entire dashboard was flickering off and on and I immediately drove the vehicle to the dealership where I purchased the vehicle. They kept the vehicle for over one week to repair but I incurred no cost for the repair because the vehicle was under warranty. These issues, as indicated above, appear to be systemic safety related concerns and Honda should be mandated to implement a recall so that these issues are repaired by Honda free of charge.
