2019 Honda Fit Electrical System Problems

The fuel gauge and odometer digital display goes blank, when it comes back on the numbers are not clear. It does not happen every time I start the car but is something that concerns me. It was first observed January 24, 2026. The safety issue would be not knowing how much gas I have. The problem has not been confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. The component has not been inspected by the manufacturer. There were no no warning lights or messages prior to the malfunctioning.

The instrument cluster displaying the odometer, gas gauge, fuel economy flickers and goes dark primarily in cold weather

The dashboard display fuel gauge is back lit but won’t actually work.

Dashboard instruments panel showing fuel in tank does not work in cold weather. Do not know when gas tank is near empty. The rest of the display in that part of the dashboard also not working in cold weather (below 50 degrees F.

Vehicle has less than 16k miles over 6 years of ownership. One day, upon starting the car, multiple warning lights, including check engine light, appeared. Dealer stated after diagnostic that issue is due to misfire in one cylinder due to carbon buildup. This is a known issue with this model, and several repair bulletins have been made about this specific issue. Certain VINs were given an extended warranty to fix this problem, but despite having this exact issue and my VIN being mentioned in the repair bulletin, my car is not covered, forcing me to pay out of pocket for this known issue. Car is deemed not safe to drive by dealer until issue is remedied.

A glitchy and/or blank main display often fails to show important information such as fuel level, odometer, etc., especially in colder weather. Driving with an inoperative display can increase the risk of being stranded somewhere without fuel.

Digital Dash - past 3 years occurring more, it will blank out, information is distorted can’t read digits or anything for a long weird of time. Unable to detect fuel levels, miles, rest function

When it gets cold, the odometer/gas gauge intermittently glitches. It might come back on or it might stay blank. If you cannot read your mileage, you can’t get accurate repair service. If you cannot read your gas gauge, you could break down on the highway because you ran out of gas and did not know it. This problem seems to occur across Honda Fits ranging from 2015-2020 and even Honda CR-Vs from a Google search. A few people have found that it has something to do with loose soldering which leads to improper expansion? This needs to be investigated and covered under a recall. Most people wouldn’t be able to afford thousands of dollars.

The fuel gauge, Odometer went blank. Im afraid of be stranded o have in accident . Was taken to Burne Honda Scranton. The problem wasn’t resolved

To whom it may concern, I am seeing a Failing Odometer Display in my 2019 Honda Fit. I've reported to both Dean Honda, and now Washington Honda here in Pennsylvania. Seems to be more prevalent in the morning, lasting anywhere between a few minutes or up to an hour. During this time, I either see just a backlight with Zero Information being Displayed or unidentifiable Hieroglyphics being displayed. I am unable to view Miles/gal, Time, Oil Life, Trip Odometer and the Odometer Reading. Which brings me to my next point, is the mileage actually being calculated while this display is either off or unreadable? Thank you kindly in advance for your time and consideration. It also seems as others are reporting this as well at least on Honda Forums, although there isn't a recall yet that covers this.

The dashboard display that shows fuel gauge, mileage, and maintenance minders glitches. Frequently some components of the numbers and gauges aren't visible, while other times the display is completely blank. An unreliable fuel gauge is a safety issue if fuel runs out and disrupts traffic/causes an accident. Unknown maintenance needs can cause several electrical and mechanical safety issues. This glitch has been occurring for 4-5 months but has gotten more frequent and more persistent in the last several weeks. I have an inspection scheduled with the dealership.

Fuel Gauge Display is BLANK in temperatures below 40 degrees fahrenheit when engine starts. Mileage, Trip A/B, MPG calculation, fuel gauge, and MPG trip avg. do not come up for >20 minutes and often require reset of trip odometer. SAFETY ISSUE- FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT APPEAR UPON START OF VEHICLE ENGINE

I bought this vehicle brand new in February of 2019. The right-hand side dashboard display does not work in cold weather and will eventually function when the interior of the car warms up. The right-hand side dashboard display contains vital safety related information, including the fuel gauge, servicing messages, and the odometer. When researching this issue on the internet, this is a common problem and is costly to repair. My vehicle is no longer under warranty and I do not want to incur the cost of repair. I am asking that a vehicle recall be instituted for 2019 Honda Fits regarding this safety related matter. As an aside, during my first year after purchasing this vehicle, when the vehicle was under warranty, the entire dashboard was flickering off and on and I immediately drove the vehicle to the dealership where I purchased the vehicle. They kept the vehicle for over one week to repair but I incurred no cost for the repair because the vehicle was under warranty. These issues, as indicated above, appear to be systemic safety related concerns and Honda should be mandated to implement a recall so that these issues are repaired by Honda free of charge.

My fuel/mileage dashboard goes off and on, clustering. It started last year and now happens almost everyday. Asked the dealer about issue since I believe it’s a safety concern and my car is still under warranty for 80,000. Since my car is almost to the miles they want me to pay to check it.

The small display on the dash that shows, odometer readings, and fuel gage, has started having problems. It will either show nothing at all, or will be a mixed up, unreadable bunch of characters. Looking online this is a fairly common problem with the second generation of Honda Fits 2015 and newer. As this is the overall odometer reading for the car, as well as fuel gauge, and no other way to display that information, this is a big problem.

The odomoter gauge flickers and freezed quite often. Sometime it goes blank. I cannot reset odometer after oil change or see the mileage. It was less frequent a year ago, but now is more frequent. It was noted first while the car was under warranty, but because it was not too frequent, I did not take it to the dealer.

This vehicle has not been inspected by dealership, nor insurance. Suddenly all warning lamps(LKAP, RDMP, CMSP, ABP with the Break System) went on. Im just affraid of an accident that could be caused by the failure of the systems. Lamps have been on for at least 4 months. It also had a recall for the fuel system, it was supposed to been taken care at a dealership but now the engine lamp is on as well with fuel emissions system. Yes, this vehicle is available to be inspected at any time. Im just don't feel safe driving it.

Instrument cluster display failing. Unable to get fuel gauge or miles off the vehicle. Without The fuel gauge hard to tell when running low on fuel

Recently the readings on the gauge with my odometer, gas gauge, and oil life will flicker or glitch when the weather is cold. After about 15 minutes the gauge will go blank but will still have the backlight glow to it. It will continue to glitch if I turn the car off and on again quickly but if I let it sit for a while, the gauge is fine when I turn the car back on and until I start driving. I brought it to my dealership and they said this is a known problem with the Hond Fit and the replacement cost for the gauge would be $1000. I feel this is a safety risk because I cannot see my gas level or oil life left when it's off. And I'm not sure if it's affecting the odometer readings.

Console display flickers with garbage characters (sometimes) or is blank (most times). This is a safety concern because: 1) a blank display prevents viewing of gas tank level, 2) the TPMS warning light remains lit despite being checked and reset by the dealer, and 3) other warning light states are unknown. This exact issue has been noted by many internet posts, and appears tied to faulty manufacture (cracked solder on display control board.)
