Nada, zilch, nuthin. No word from the dealer or Honda this week about anything to do with the Fit's airbag, but we didn't really expect there to be any communication, did we? I did get a survey from American Honda about the service performed on the Fit the previous week (manual transmission oil change) and when faced with the nearly final question of the rating the overall reliability of the Fit from 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent), and thought long and hard before pressing the button next to 1. My thinking was that while the overall reliability of the car really has been fine. However, American Honda wrote on their website "please take immediate action to have your vehicle repaired, as your safety may be at risk." This is not a car that should be driven, so therefore, it is NOT a reliable car. It's too bad because I really do like the Fit so much better than the Ford Focus 5-door we're currently driving.
So I get it--Honda is trying to make this right by providing a rental vehicle while my Fit is not available. But here's a suggestion to make at least this Fit owner significantly happier--loan me another Fit that is not subject to the airbag recall--that will at least make me whole while I endure this episode.
