What Owners Say
"When it rains outside, water leaks into the cabin, apparently through the back, driver-side door. It pools in the footwell, and I have to Shop-vac it out through the carpet. Before I discovered the problem, mold developed on the carpet. I tried sealing the door, but so far have been unsuccessful. I had a similar problem with the back hatch door, but I was able to seal that one successfully last year."
Anonymous, CA (2007 Honda Fit Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"This is essentially the same as the water leak problem I already described."
Anonymous, CA (2007 Honda Fit Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"The spare tire well had water standing in it. I looked it up on the web and found this to be common. One guy had a tutorial on it using FlexTape. I used that tape on several suspicious areas around the hatch door and the well has been dry as a bone since."
Anonymous, WA (2007 Honda Fit Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"The starter motor has made a disturbing grinding noise for more then a year."
