Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: What is this bush / connector called?
« Last post by jazzaro on Today at 03:12:33 PM »The yellow arrow is missing. Pink is what is should be as on other side. Anyone know whats its called?Could be nr 7 and nr 8?
The bolt just above and right of it was sitting there unscrewed and I had to screw it back in. Could the fact that the connector is missing cause enough vibration for it to unscrew itself or they forgot both. Im surprised the bolt was still there after all this time.
The front bumper was changed back in early '23 but its been serviced since last May so strange. Can only think they forgot to put it back in or broke it and didnt replace it?

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Mk4 2021 Jazz Brake failure
« Last post by Spodric on Today at 03:11:12 PM »I frequently read in Which? magazine about people who have managed to get companies to act FOC for certain product failures up to 6 years
I wonder how that translates to this obvious manufacturing fault
The email I got from Honda UK said this is "not classified by Honda as a manufacturing defect". I am challenging that statement, because Honda UK and Honda Japan have taken somewhat inconsistent stances on the question whether it is a manufacturing defect that caused these "simulator" failures. Even to a non-expert like me it looks like a manufacturing defect, walks like a manufacturing defect, quacks like a manufacturing defect etc.
I am still waiting for a substantive response to my escalation of the claim against Honda UK for hire car charges that I was forced to pay while my Jazz was waiting to be repaired for 3 weeks under warranty, through no fault of mine.
Mitsubishi pulled out of the UK and European car markets a few years ago (and might return with a couple of re-badged Renaults) so I am wondering if Honda might be about to pull out as well. If that is the case it might explain why Honda UK is resisting my claim, and is showing an inconsistent approach to dealing with other claims relating to the same failed brake simulators.
I was a loyal Honda fan, having had 2 Honda motorbikes, an early Civic, and am now on my 2nd Jazz. After being treated like this by Honda UK, Toyota or Kia now look more appealing for my next car.

Honda Jazz Mk3 2015 - 2020 / Re: paint bubbling / lacquer peeling
« Last post by zesty_bum on Today at 02:01:16 PM »Update: all fixed! Made a mild complaint to Honda and they made it as good as new (free of charge).
Looks like they’ve missed out the rubber seal on one of the rear bumper parking sensors - will this cause an issue?
Thanks for all the helpful comments in thread

I will mention the brake issue to them just to see what they say about it as I know at least two people on here have used the same dealer for their repair

Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Spacesaver spare wheel
« Last post by aphybrid on Today at 12:26:12 PM »It's very wise to include a trolley jack as aphybrid has done, I found it next to impossible to use a regular screw jack, the car is extremely heavy, we bought an electric one, press a button & up she goes. Only had to use it the once but a Godsend.
Indeed I had one of them for time, can't remembr name/type, used it mainly for lifting in garage where space a bit limited also very fast compared to other methods.
all was well until one day would not lower!! Reverted to jacks.

« Last post by davejazz on Today at 11:57:48 AM »If your Jazz is not manufactured btwn 2/7/2018 and 15/9/2022 you are less likely to experience this fault (my understanding). God luck !!
Divine good wishes are so welcome, and ensure we will come out on top!

Honda Jazz Mk2 2008-2015 / Re: Tyres and insurance
« Last post by Brakballe on Today at 11:44:20 AM »Having run Michelin Cross Climates for 6 years, they are far from "mediocre".
And changing wheels for winter in the UK (Unless Northern Scotland) is not needed. Snow is minimal.
Have you tried both? I guess not. The difference is when I need do an emergency brake on the HW you will slam my arse in 40-50 km/h. And I will come for you with my jack handle...

« Last post by Lincolnshire Rambler on Today at 10:49:22 AM »I dont understand how honda are not jumping all over this safety issue !! So far in our forum no one has crashed because of the simulator failure …and lets hope no does . A colleage had a mini several years ago and as his wife went into a roundabout the steering jammed . The mini wasnt new and outside its warrantry ! Bmw mini replaced its steering rack without fuss and no cost . Further more sent the engineering investigation report to show what had happened and why !! As the honda issue isnt restricted to one model they should be hugely more Proactive IMHO. I decided to buy my jazz , which i considered to be a premium price over a non hybrid conventional car , believing the good reputation for reliability wouldnt give any issues . I also think that any part specifically required for the hybrid system ( of which the brake simulator is one , power controller electric motor HV battery etc) should be covered by the 8 yr 100,000 warrantry - this is the expensive tech to replace and you wont do that outside the honda dealer network as you need honda software to install and commission! I noticed yesterday a new model honda HRV for sale at my local Kia dealer …. 7 year warrantry .. ho hum
