2011 Honda Fit Electrical System

The Honda fit has a known issue with door lock actuator. The car locks and unlocks several times now it just make a high squalling noise that prevent the car from being locked.

I DON'T KNOW IF MY CAR STALLING AT A RED LIGHT MIGHT CAUSE A WRECK IF IN MOTION. SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND MY CAR JUST STALLS FOR A SECOND THEN RIGHT BACK ON. RADIO AND LIGHTS GO OUT FOR JUST A SECOND. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. HOPE IT DOESN'T CAUSE A WRECK WHILE IN MOTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HONDA FIT. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUT OFF, THE STEERING LOST POWER, AND THE HEADLIGHTS SHUT OFF. THE SYSTEM RESTARTED A FEW MINUTES LATER. THE FAILURE RECURRED MORE OFTEN WHEN THE HEATER OR AIR CONDITIONER WERE ACTIVATED. THERE WAS NO WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED DCH HONDA OF NANUET AT 845- 367-4380 (LOCATED AT 10 NY-304, NANUET, NY 10954) AND WAS INFORMED TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. A CASE NUMBER WAS PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

THE WIRING IN HONDA'S IS SOY BASED WHICH IS HIGHLY DESIRABLE TO RABBITS, MICE AND OTHER RODENTS. MICE ATE MY WIRING OVERNIGHT - CAR REFUSED TO START AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE MECHANIC AND REPAIRED. I'M UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE'S A LAWSUIT ABOUT THIS BUT I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING. BASICALLY, THIS MEANS THE WIRING IS DEFECTIVE IN HONDA'S ATTEMPT TO GO GREEN. I'M A REALTOR AND NEED A DEPENDABLE CAR. I ALSO LIVE IN THE COUNTRY WHERE MICE ARE JUST A WAY OF LIFE, I WILL NOT KNOW WHETHER MY CAR WILL START OR NOT, OR IF SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN WHILE I'M DRIVING ALL DUE TO THIS ISSUE.
