Driving down the highway yesterday at 75 mph. Car said check starter system. Started blinking. All dash lights and system turned off then on then off again. Power steering went off. Car died while going 75 mph. Abs system went down with it too. Had to hard steer and shift down. Parked on side of highway on shoulder. Towed to mechanic who said it's the alternator. Fit has about 125000 miles on it. The start switch was replaced 3 times recall then faulty by Honda dealership. Then the starter needed to be replaced by Honda dealership. Then the battery twice by O'Reilly. Now the alternator by my mechanic. This is not usual for Hondas to have to replace all of those. Seems as though this is a faulty starter system manufacturing. I could've died, had I not been trained by the military on what to do if vehicle lost power.

While driving on highway, my car started to lose power. My attempts to maintain speed resulted in my car stalling and lurching forward, intermittently. I had to pull over on the side. Someone with a diagnostic tool checked and the tool read out indicated "Fuel rail pressure too low" and ABS indicated as abnormal.

In mid 2019 my Honda had a little rear end problem. Took it to a frame shop and was told my REAR AXLE BEAM ASSEMBLY was bent 3° which was causing front end alignment problems. When they used there machines and whatever else they tried was told there machinery couldn't make it budge.(front end alignment at least 2 times a month) Then in 2020 I went to start my car and nothing!! Kept trying and trying and finally it started. Continued to what I thought was my car just having a mind of its own to continuously not wanting to start so I checked my battery which was fine. I took the car to a Honda Dealership and was told I needed a new battery. Ok fine whatever then after the new battery was hooked up and they went to start it nothing!! Hours later here I am buying a starter (fixed the problem till about mid 2021). Oh yeah forgot STILL HAVE A BENT REAR AXLE) !! CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM has been popping up every time my car decides to start. Gotten to the point where the only way it'll start is if it's jumped. Battery is fine but the alternator isn't pushing out anything whatsoever!!! Because it's constantly being jumped my negative battery terminal SENSOR is going out. Every where I've called or taken the car to either says "nothing we can do" or they want to charge thousands of dollars or " oh ma'am your car is a discontinued model!" I have two little kids and this HONDA FIT is just not safe for myself, kids, or anyone else! Oh almost forgot ABS light along with the keyless entry plus contraction control and steering stabilizer lights are lit up like a Christmas Tree on the dash.

Front drivers side axle broke in half- not at the socket. Mechanic said he's never seen anything like it. It did not break on a bump. I was turning left on a busy street and it just broke. After calling honda dealers in the area, everyone seems to be out of ABS axles. I wonder why.

Right drive axle shaft broke, rusted through inside vibration damper, left drive axle near failure; right front ABS sensor damaged. Had pulled over to curb in gear, break occurred when starting to pull out, was stuck in active traffic. Luckilly this failure did not occure when traveling at road speeds.
