Honda & Other Honda Models / Re: Gulp! at Honda UK April 24 registration figures.

Holdsworth, who have the Honda franchise, have added MG to their dealership and, at my last visit, the Honda bit of the showroom was about 25% of the floor space. A former Mitsubishi dealership is now a KIA dealership and they seem to be selling EVs like hot cakes. Indeed they are in the process of expanding what was already a large site.

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Mk4 2021 Jazz Brake failure
« Last post by peteo48 on May 09, 2024, 03:40:16 PM »One thing I often wonder about in situations like this is the odds of getting this now notorious fault. Will 50% of cars made up to the time they addressed the issue at the manufacturing stage get it?
The reason I ask is I have been here before with a Mk5 VW Golf 1.9 TDI. I read on forums that the ABS system was notorious for failing. Facebook groups had been set up, there was talk of class actions, demands that VW did a recall. I got this fault a few months after reading about it. There was another issue with coil springs - I got that as well (it snapped).
So I am a bit neurotic about this. Are we saying, can we say that your Mk4 is more likely than not to develop this fault?
I could live with, say, a one in ten chance but 50%?
I could live without a car but, as, I think Kremmen said, you have that nagging doubt when you go out to the car that it might happen.

Probably not from the UK, more likely from Belgium: Honda Motor Europe Logistics NV

Honda Jazz Mk1 2002-2008 / Issues with keys
« Last post by Asiri on May 09, 2024, 02:23:25 PM »I cannot open the front doors of my Honda Jazz 2004 with the key. When I insert the key, I cannot turn it to open the door. However, I can open and lock the car from the trunk using the same key. The keys are working for starting the ignition. This issue started recently; it was working fine when I bought it a few months back. What can I do?

« Last post by chrisv on May 09, 2024, 01:03:17 PM »Hi,
After buying mine from a Honda dealer I found that they hadn't done the transmission oil change or much servicing as it was a low milage disability car? I went to my local Honda dealer who were another branch of the same dealership and they did the oil change FOC.
I was not impressed with the first dealer who argued that the oil change was due at 5 years, they ticked the box saying that the puncture fluid was within date when it was out, obviously an exercise in box ticking. I always wondered if this contributed to the early failure.

« Last post by Hicardo on May 09, 2024, 12:43:08 PM »Going back to Jazziks question about the owners who have so far been trouble free in the affected years (supposedly) of the brake simulator failure. Although I am quite reluctant to tempt fate, my car has been entirely trouble free, except a piece of trim came loose in the wheel arch, which I re-attached and all fine since. BUT like some of you, I am now always wondering if one day the brake failure bug will strike. If it happens it happens, but I do hope it happens when I'm at home, not away travelling somewhere!
