Four dashboard warning signs (Check Engine Light, Tire Pressure Monitoring System, Vehicle Stability Assist System, Electric Power Steering) appeared all at once suddenly. I had the vehicle towed to my local Honda dealership for service. They gave me a diagnostic code of P0304 and insisted that the repair did not fall under my car's active powertrain warranty. I searched the web and found it is a common problem in Honda Fits. Some 2019 Honda Fits have an extended warranty for fuel injection replacement, but it is not applicable to my car for an unknown reason. Relevant service bulletins: 23-042 and 21-007
2019 Honda Fit fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 55, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The check engine light came on. The vehicle was shaking/sputtering when idling. We took it into the dealership and they said we needed to replace the fuel injectors, despite the vehicle not even having 60,000 miles on it.
All warning lights cycle through on vehicle dashboard after turning on vehicle. Vehicle was taken to Honda Auto Service Center, where issue is diagnosed as Carbon Buildup, causing misfires. Error Diagnostic Code is one of P0300 - P0304. After maintenance, error clears out. However, there is a Honda Service Bulletin 23-042 which provides a warranty extension for Honda Fits of the same year, make, and model with the same issue, which my vehicle's VIN was not included as eligible. Issue of carbon buildup causing misfires may apply to other VIN ranges than in that bulletin, as accounted by the federal safety agency ID #11462041, #11490506, #11549767, and #11593466
Recall 23V‑858 issued nearly 1 year ago. Honda notified that parts were available to those not currently experiencing direct fuel pump issues in September of 2024.

Although I was added to a waitlist, no indication of parts availability to remedy the recall has been provided.

We just had the fuel injectors fail for the 2nd time on this car, which has about 85,000 miles on it. The fuel injectors were originally replaced in 2021 by the dealer and have once again failed according to the dealer’s diagnosis. Honda America’s extended warranty for some Fits for this same issue needs to be extended to other model years. It is unreasonable to have to replace fuel injectors twice within this short of a time span.

Fuel injector is going bad on my car at 80,000 miles causing catalytic converter to go bad based on two check engine codes. Recall done on 2015-2016 models so hoping this could be extended to 2019 as it seems they haven’t fixed the issue

This vehicle has not been inspected by dealership, nor insurance. Suddenly all warning lamps(LKAP, RDMP, CMSP, ABP with the Break System) went on. Im just affraid of an accident that could be caused by the failure of the systems. Lamps have been on for at least 4 months. It also had a recall for the fuel system, it was supposed to been taken care at a dealership but now the engine lamp is on as well with fuel emissions system. Yes, this vehicle is available to be inspected at any time. Im just don't feel safe driving it.
While driving the emission system problem warning came up on my dash with the check engine light. After this happened it became incredibly hard to accelerate the engine. I was driving on the freeway and attempting to merge putting my life and my families at risk because the engine was trying to accelerate but sputtering and stopping for a moment instead. It hasn’t been inspected by police, but went to dealer and got code P219A and was told this was a faulty fuel injector. This was the first time this had happened and no other warning lights came on before the emission system problem that popped up on the dash.
My 2019 honda fit only has 61k miles. I was driving on the freeway and the fuel pump went it almost cause to get into an accident lost of power to the engine drastically slowed me down. Got a scanner to scan the problem and the fuel pump came out as the error code. I bought my car brand new. The pump shouldn't of gave out so soon
When starting vehicle all warning lights became illuminated. Was able to drive car, however vehicle felt rough at idle and driver felt unsafe operating vehicle. When taken to mechanic it was found the fuel injectors need to be replaced. Vehicle was purchased from dealership with this issue occurring only 8 days after purchase and is not covered by warranty.
Fuel injectors failed after 40,000 miles, not covered under powertrain warranty. Honda Fits have a history of defective fuel injectors with TSBs issued years later. Car is no longer running emissions complaint. Honda denied any warranty goodwill coverage
Intermittent problem with gas gauge going totally blue with no display of information. No prior problems. Recently started and have not been to dealer about it. To date, has not lasted more than 20 minutes before returning to normal, with all info displayed. Without that gauge, the possibility of running out of gas on interstate or other busy road is highly likely and very dangerous. Usually happen when I start car. There is no warning.
All 4 of my fuel injectors were faulty even though I only had 61,000 miles on my car. All were and had to be replaced before further damage was done or before my safety was compromised further.
The contact owns a 2019 Honda Fit. The contact stated that while refueling the vehicle, he stepped away from the vehicle then returned and noticed that fuel had splattered out of the fuel tank filler neck. The contact then stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated however, after driving a half mile, the check engine warning light turned off. The contact was concerned that the vehicle was designed to drain the extra fuel but failed to operate as designed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that fuel had entered the canister and the charcoal filter and the canister needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 17,081.
Engine light came on and it was brought to the dealership and I was told all fuel injectors need to be replaced and it wouldn't be under warranty. The car has 65,000 miles on which is just over warranty, but I should still not have had to replace these yet. There have been other problems with the fuel system with the fuel pump recall and they have extended the warranty on fuel injectors in other Honda vehicles, which leads me to believe this is a greater problem than just my car and it should still be covered by Honda.
November 2021 vehicle exhibits rough idle, multiple dashboard warning lights/messages come on with mileage at approximately 13,000 miles. Driver feels unsafe operating vehicle, concerned about engine stall during highway driving. Dealer service center performs intake valve cleaning of carbon buildup and update to software under warranty. Within twelve months, October 2022, vehicle exhibits similar rough idle, multiple dashboard warning lights/messages come on with mileage at approximately 20,000 miles. Driver feels unsafe operating vehicle, concerned about engine stall during highway driving. Dealer service initiated again.
4 warning lights appeared 10/11/2022 (VSA, Engine, EPS and TPMS) The next day a local mechanic found code PO302. Misfire on cylinder no 2. Recommended take car to dealer for warranty work related to fuel injectors. Honda dealer found same code PO302 on 10/18/22 and instructed car needs a Walnut Blast, $700, not covered by extended powertrain warranty. The Honda Fit is known to have problems with fuel injectors, is at risk for stalling and the repair should be covered under the warranty.
My Fit was purchased in May of 2019. On October 2022, all warning lights (tpms, check engine, lane assist, etc) suddenly turned on when the vehicle was turned on. The car was taken to the same Honda dealer where it purchased and the service department determined the problem to be a cylinder misfire (P0303, cylinder #3). Since I immediately took the vehicle to be serviced, I was able to avoid a likely engine stall that other Fit owners have been experiencing. My vehicle has had all of its required and recommended maintenance performed on time at the same Honda dealer where it was purchased, including replacing the fuel pump at 15k miles and performing decarb service at 20k miles. Even though my Fit was maintained to the exact specifications Honda required, the car still had this fuel system failure which the service department was unable to explain nor were they willing to comp despite having an extended warranty (also purchased at dealer). This error code is the same problem that triggered a service bulletin on all previous model years which Honda covered but has not done so for this model year. I spoke with Honda Customer Service department (1‑800‑999‑1009, option 1, 6, 5) and their warranty department but neither were willing to help because it was beyond the 3yr/36k coverage and was not covered by the extended warranty.
