Honda Jazz Mk4 2020 - / Re: Mk4 2021 Jazz Brake failure
« Last post by Whiteshark on Today at 06:19:33 PM »Absolutely agree with the variable standard of dealers, irrespective of car manufacturer. However, a major point with this brake failure is it is occurring just outside the standard Honda 3 year warranty and from numerous posts it seems Honda certainly at first see this as a customer problem not theirs. I believe that provided they service your car regularly, Toyota provide a ten year warranty which is a definite plus.

That is correct, but Honda offer a 5 year warranty care plan, which I have, plus I expect it is possible to extend that also. The Toyota 10 year warranty is not free but paid on top of the service charge. Each manufacturer will offer their own options, for example the Honda 5 year service plan is fantastic value.
All manufacturers warranty period, whatever length, is definitive, and if something fails outside it is then your problem. I do think in this case as it is potentially safety related and affecting a larger number, Honda should warrant it, and take responsibility.
The other issue of course is then the discussion that takes place as to whether the failure is a warranty issue, and I can assure you Toyota and Lexus , even with their 10 year cover have issues.

Simple Honda should pay if that delay is weeks and weeks . You cant buy the part elsewhere .My dealer would provide a courtesy car under such circumstances even if Honda Uk wont ! Thats why the family owned dealers keep their valued customers !! You absolutely wouldnt get this treatment with toyota or lexus !I agree that a good dealer would and should look after you. However as already mentioned on here, it would appear that Toyota/Lexus are saints. They are not, and a visit to their forums will confirm. I have had Lexus for years and the same criteria as above apply, some dealers are good others aren’t and they experience very similar issues, including angry forum members.

« Last post by Whiteshark on Today at 04:50:20 PM »Was discussing this with a friend the other night, who has an old Rover 75 and a Honda Civic. I told him about the soy issue and he said bizarrely it is all over the Rover owners forum about rodents eating through wiring harnesses, all of a sudden, so it affecting them as well. I don’t think soy is involved though !

« Last post by madasafish on Today at 10:14:33 AM »ABS sensor or ABS ring broken? Or loose sensor?
Does it happen when you hit a pothole on one side of the car only? Or both?

Car Care & Detailing / problem with ABS activation in potholes
« Last post by Venetia on Today at 09:57:56 AM »I have a 2002 honda jazz, which until recently was trouble free.
For the past year, when I need to brake gently and hit a pothole, at low speed, the ABS kicks in.
This means that for a few meters the car does not stop.
I changed pads, changed shock absorbers and while at first the problem improves,
after a while it's the same again.
Does anyone have a similar experience?

« Last post by Nicksey on Today at 08:14:16 AM »I have just checked mine, and it is all there. The first service at 12350 miles gives a full report, and interestingly there is this in the list:
B Inspect brake hoses and lines (including VSA lines
Check master cylinder and VSA modulator control unit for damage and leakage.
Was checked and OK'd. Phew.
Also under the 'recalls' check box, there was nothing to indicate any.
