Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Mk4 2021 Jazz Brake failure
« Last post by chicksee on May 05, 2024, 01:45:16 PM »Like many others, I’m concerned every time I get in the car now.
So far have had the passenger side wing mirror problem and front windscreen washer replaced.
Had Honda Jazz for many years now and all been super reliable, mine is a Crosstar 20 plate so would be interested if anyone else is so far trouble free.

The Brake operating simulator, manufactured btwn 2/7/18 n 15/9/22 by Keisan, have got excess oil in process, which in time seep into the circuit board corroding the pressure sensor inside. The corrosion occurs by time not by use unlike aircon. So, I think its a ticking time bomb for most of us but some lucky guys may escape from it. The affected Simulators are widely used in CR-V, HR-V, Jazz, etc you name it.

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: Garmin Maps Europe 2024 Available
« Last post by Briz111 on May 05, 2024, 12:44:28 PM »I had just prepared the USB in the car and was about to pay the £21.31 but thought 'I'd better check the forums' and I'm glad I did. I can see that the old maps are still on the head unit so I suspect I have no room for the new set of maps, like some people have found.
It's not a lot of money and I could risk it, but I would be rather annoyed if it doesn't work. The car is 2018 reg but it still feels new to me!

Off Topic (Non-Honda) / Re: sunglasses for driving
« Last post by RichardA on May 05, 2024, 11:21:36 AM »does anyone use glasses with photochromatic lenses for driving in the Jazz , do they work ok ?
I was thinking of getting a pair but the opticians have advised they don't work too well behind some car windows due to the glass absorbing UV.
I have a pair of polarising glasses but they don't work well, turning the car and mobile phone lcd screens very dark !
I've had these on my perscription for over 20 years and they don't go dark when driving. I've also had perscription sunglasses but they make the backlit dials on the later Mk1s too dark.

It seems odd that low mileage cars seem to be affected.So if the premature failure of the brake simulator isnt a manufacturing defect then its therefore an engineering design failure .. arguably worse from hondas perspective as it makes them more liable .blaming the defect on the sub contractor who makes the part removes the stress from honda . Failures have occured at low mileages and no one has yet covered distances aporoaching 100k in a mark 4 jazz - it doesnt appear to be failure after x thousand presses of the brake pedal so nothing is wearing out as such .
Interestingly, the part is failing after under less duress than a standard cars braking system.. as we all know that the regen system allows you to drive smoothly WITHOUT using the brakes as much.
