2019 Honda Fit fuel/propulsion system problems

“Purchased great condition used 2019 Fit EX on XXX from local non-Honda dealership. Nearly 10 months later, on XXX the following errors appeared on the dash: tire pressure monitor system, emissions, hill start assist, lane deviation warning, power steering, and vehicle stability assist errors on the screen, and the check engine, tire pressure monitoring system, vehicle stability assist system, and electric power steering lights were also on. I took it to a local Honda service shop (Performance Kings Honda at [XXX]), and it was diagnosed as needing fuel injectors replaced (running too rich). I approved the repair for a total cost of $1,629.32, including the diagnostic fee, parts, labor, and taxes, on XXX. This was an identical issue to a used 2018 Honda Fit EX that I had purchased on XXX which had the same symptoms and was diagnosed as the same problem (fuel injectors) in XXX, and for which I submitted a separate NHTSA complaint. This is an issue for the NHTSA because it is a known issue on this make and model of car by owners and Honda. See the following: Honda Service Bulletins 21-007, 22-002, 23-042. Additionally, it's an issue I have had to deal with twice,…”

“Multiple warning lights lit up after starting car and driving for a short distance (less than 5 feet). Honda mechanic diagnosed it as a misfire in cylinder likely due to carbon buildup or other unknown reason. Similar incidents have happened with other 2019 Honda Fit and an extension of warranty was issued for some vehicles but not all (SB 23-042). Unfortunately, mine was apparently not covered despite the same exact issue as other reported incidents.”

“Car only has 91,000 miles and code P219A is popping up but Honda wont cover it because its the "wrong" code even though they cover fuel injectors under misfire codes.”

“Purchased new 2019 Honda FIT. Had to have injectors replaced at dealership due to issues at 18,000 miles. At 19,743 miles started having driving issues with unusual jumping during driving/idling. Honda dealership diagnosed as misfire with excessive carbon buildup. Completed carbon cleaning procedure though only temporary repair. American Honda reviewing matter reference #4411584. Issues returned at 40,308 miles with same issues ( all lights going off on dash, carbon buildup in injectors). completed carbon cleaning at dealership. At 44,831 same lights went off again, carbon buildup seen, faulty injectors replaced at dealership. Issues continued at 56,649 where carbon cleaning took place again for issue at dealership. at 86,606 check engine lights returned with jumping, faulty injectors replaced again and a cleaning was performed at dealership. at 113,791 miles, issues came up again. Dealership cleaned again with carbon cleaner. American Honda contacted again after last dealership visit #15755510 with American Honda rep stating there is no solution at this point per Honda engineers.”

“Vehicle has less than 16k miles over 6 years of ownership. One day, upon starting the car, multiple warning lights, including check engine light, appeared. Dealer stated after diagnostic that issue is due to misfire in one cylinder due to carbon buildup. This is a known issue with this model, and several repair bulletins have been made about this specific issue. Certain VINs were given an extended warranty to fix this problem, but despite having this exact issue and my VIN being mentioned in the repair bulletin, my car is not covered, forcing me to pay out of pocket for this known issue. Car is deemed not safe to drive by dealer until issue is remedied.”

“My vehicle has difficulty starting and sometimes won't even start at all, the motor is irregular/jumpy, and the check engine light and steering wheel light have come on. After getting a diagnostics run at AutoZone the computer indicates it's a fuel pump issue. A second opinion with a mechanic also confirmed it was the fuel pump. After further research I see that the 2019 Honda Fit had a recall for Fuel Pumps. However, my specific VIN does not qualify for a recall. Honda needs to further investigate and expand the number of vehicles that were affected by this faulty fuel pump. I've been left stranded numerous times and fear that the vehicle may stall while driving, putting myself and other drivers on the road at risk.”
