        Median 2018 model here (85 vehicles)281
        Median 2018 hatchback here (4)217

        116 complaints is 2.4 times fewer than the median 2018 model on this site and 1.9 times fewer than the median 2018 hatchback. Among the 4 Fit model years here it ranks 4th for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
