Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: Garmin Maps Europe 2024 Available
« Last post by pebbles on March 27, 2024, 12:11:37 PM »
Well , thought I'd try to update again. Still getting no update available even though still on 2023 ( my standalone is now on 2025 ).

This time I had a long chat with Garmin technical support and was told that , as from Jan.31st , Garmin are no longer supporting the Honda units. Presumably this means only the ones over 5 years old . Not sure if just the Jazz but got the impression it was all models.

Gave Honda UK a ring to try to get more info. but , predictably , they know nothing about it.

So it remains to be seen if this is a temporary issue ( technical problem ) or  permanent .

Nuclear fusion is always 20 years from now and uncountable $Trillions in investment away.


When I graduated in 1969 with a degree in Physics, it was 20 years away.It makes the current fission energy systems  look 100% safe and dirt cheap..
When we cannot design and build mini nuclear reactors in 10 years despite the technology being in use for over 50 years, fission energy is clearly a very very very long time and lots and lots and lots of money away.

As unfortunate as these instances are, I'm also a member of the Mazda CX-60 forum on Facebook. To say that the CX-60 is an utter ********** show in terms of reliability is an understatement. Early adopters have been saddled with a plethora of problems. There are currently more than 10 TSBs to address serious issues - such as sticky steering, transmission shock (juddering), rear suspension / front suspension problems, camera failures (which result in the vehicle slamming on the brakes for ghost vehicles etc, etc). I'd say that, at a guess, most owners have at least 5 issues, with some experiencing 20+ (to the point that countless owners are trying to reject their vehicles). And this was Mazda's so called attempt at luxury!!

So, in comparison, the Mk4 Jazz is reliable as they come. Yes, the brake failure one is expensive. And I sympathize with owners who have had that issue :( But let's put things into perspective! I think us Honda owners are spoilt sometimes ;-)

I don’t follow the logic of this post. Just because there is another model of car with numerous faults does not mean that the problem with the break failure with the Jazz eHEV models is not serious. It renders the car undriveable and the time off road and cost of repair is unacceptable for a low milesge vehicle that is only a few years old.

I have just discovered this forum since I also appear to have the brake problem with my Jazz eHEV which is 3.5 years old with just under 9K mileage. When I started up yesterday I got the “Christmas tree” lights effect on the display which was flashing between ES and EP with 2 red circles around the letters. When I tried moving the car I noticed the brakes were very spongey and after driving the car a few yards I got a red Stop signal. I put the car back in my parking slot and phoned my local Honda dealer who informed me that the earliest they could take the car in for a diagnostic check would be Wed 3rd April. My 3 year warranty expired in Sep 23 so I guess I am in for a big hit financially. I will post the result of the diagnostic check as soon as I have it.

This is a very concerning thread, since it was started a couple of months ago.

When I bought my EX model, one year and ten months ago, I was fortunate in taking advantage, of the five year guarantee and servicing, if I took out the Honda finance deal for a minimum of six months.

Am I correct in thinking, that this brake simulator, will be covered for the full five years, for those fortunate enough to have had the finance deal package in place?

Still think this is a brilliant car though!

I too find it a tad concerning and similarly to you, my car is 1 year 6 months old. However, it was pointed out earlier in the thread that this simulator was a known (by Honda) fault, and was restricted to cars manufactured in a certain timescale during 2020. So hopefully we are ok.
If you check your car's VIN (chassis) number against the list on page 4 of this thread you can be certain one way or the other (unfortunately my Crosstar is on the list)

Hi welcome to the forum.

When it stops blowing cold are you sure the compressor is still engaged?  Borderline gas pressure/level can cause compressor clutch engagement to be  hit and miss. Or maybe it runs but the cooling performance is not enough to keep the condenser radiator cold for long. These are just suggestions. i am not an expert  :-[

Have you owned the car  long enough to know that any previous regassing has normally lasted a long time - years rather than months?    If you bought it fairly recently  then maybe it was regassed just before you bought it and the periods between you needing to get it regassed, and again having problems might indicate its leaking.   

I'd go back to whoever regassed it. They may do a pressure check free of charge,to disprove any responsibility, or in the hope of repair work.

In view of the age of the car maybe there are  DIY leak fix treatments and recharge options available in Oz  that might work for  any slow leaks.

Hi, the air-conditioning will work and blows cold air for about 10 minutes, then no longer blows cold air. fan and compressor are working fine. Clutch kicks in when switching on aircond. What should we be looking at. Unit was re gassed  recently.

...I only use the long press which will bring up your Android or Apple voice assistant. Which works well.
The short press to bring up the Honda assistant has never understood me on any command given!

...I do find it is much better on the HR-V I should add.
