2016 Honda Fit Owner Complaints

The dominant complaint pattern for the 2016 Honda Fit centers on the electrical system, which draws far more reports than any other category. Owners most frequently describe problems with the instrument panel cluster, including display failures, warning lights behaving erratically, and gauges going dark or giving incorrect readings. Electrical gremlins extending to lights and other interior electronics come up repeatedly as well. The fuel and propulsion system is the second most reported area, though at a much lower volume. A smaller cluster of powertrain complaints touches on CVT behavior, with some owners describing hesitation or rough response during acceleration. Separately, a handful of owners report sidewall bubbling on the factory-installed Nexen tires, with multiple reports describing the same issue recurring on replacement units of the same brand.
