Description of the problem | We have owned the 2019 fit for just over a year now. It was a joy to drive when we first got it.. A few months ago it started drifting side to side.. Most noticeable at highway speeds. It is almost impossible to keep it tracking straight on the highway anymore. It starts to go left, and just a slight steer to right overcorrects and then it's going too far to the right, then again back to the left. I am constantly bouncing between the lane going down the highway. Also the lane assist won't keep the car centered anymore either. It used to work great! The honda dealer said everything looked good and drove fine for them.. Steering, suspension, alignment, tires.. All supposedly checks out. This car is now very tiring to drive and just plain unsafe at this point. I don't know where to go from here. It's just over 21k miles. |
