13000 klm so far, so good. Gas mileage is the same as the fiat 500 I traded and uses regular gas and has lots more room. Smooth ride and good handling.

Honda airbag defect issue not resolved by Honda in a reasonable timeframe. Received letter stating not to drive the car due to the airbag defect. Never offered a rental car - still no airbag replacement available after waiting more than 6 months. Tried to work with the dealer to get it fixed or trade for a different car - I pay cash for my cars. They did offer me list price on a new Rav4 and 9K for my Fit on a trade in. Sold the car at a loss just to get rid of it.

April 2020 Car slowed down since I bought it. Leaking a lot of water from the muffler. The car oil indicator goes to 0% at 2,000 miles and I barely drive it. Should be every 10,000 miles not less than 2,200 miles. Paint faded.

Was way too small for us so I dumped it and bought a van. Not saying that it wasn’t roomy for its size. It was a manual transmission car like I prefer. I’m glad it’s gone because illnesses has made it difficult to drive a stick anyway. Got rid of it so no more review updates for me

bought this car earlier this month. finding city mileage to less than listed, surprised that road noise is louder than expected (though I knew it wouldn't be stellar). on the other hand, i like the storage space, front seats are comfortable, it handled the surprise snow we had in town like a champ (where other folks were failing, we stayed on the road). the visibility is good and it is a fun car to drive.

This car is all about function over form, it looks like a guppy, albeit a cute one, and the cockpit is spaceship like, but the materials are more functional than luxurious. It is definitely not a powerhouse but it is Peppy in stop and go traffic. update: as time goes by this ages well, and has been very reliable except for the battery and the headlight coating, but the lack of active safety equipment and the noisy harsh ride become a little unnerving after getting used to newer cars. all in all...still a great purchase.

Road noise off the charts !

Great space for passengers and cargo. However, if you are someone who doesn't play.misic whole driving you will be very annoyed by the load roar of the road noise at speeds above 35-40.

NOT fun to drive

I read lots of reviews saying it's fun to drive. Reality check: It's not. Mine just lagged off the line with the manual tranny. I wanted to have spirited acceleration, but this 1.5 L engine has no power at low revs: thats how they say it has great gas mileage: no power means low gas consumption You need to rev the engine to get power. It has spongy suspension and leans heavily in turns. It has no tech features. No bluetooth, no phone connection other that usb for charging. It does have good cargo room, though. Big bonus. I got rid of it after three years because other competitors have more options. I just bought a Chevy Spark EV for a change. I didn't like the way the dealer said that 2013 was such a good design, they decided not to make any changes for 2014. I didn't like the way the dealer handled my purchase.

My last Honda product

There is a difference between a cheap car and an inexpensive car. This Honda is just plain cheap! And what is worse, the Honda service groups at the dealer have a take no prisoner approach to dealing with the customers. You sell these cheap cars and then treat the customers like they are wealthy people and money is of no concern. The dealer tried to do things like $100.00 to change a cabin air filter (I found one on the internet for $9.80 and it was easy to change)... and I can give a dozen other examples. The air conditioner has a design flaw with the condenser being easily damaged, and the list goes on and on.
