I have owned this car for three years, it has 81,166 miles on it and is having so many problems. The engine burns through oil faster than it should and has cause permanent damage. I always took it in to the dealership for oil changes and always brought it in when the oil life was at roughly 20%. I constantly checked the oil level and it was always low even after a recent fill up but had no leakage. I now need a new engine which will cost roughly $5000 including labor maybe more. Every time I started my car for the past year it would make a rough loud sound and would usually go away once I got an oil change. My car will also take roughly 3 tries to start and will most likely need a new starter. This is the second time I have had to have the starter fixed in the past 2 years. The back up camera is also way off with depth perception and has almost caused many accidents.

I did not realize it when I test drove this vehicle, but this car has major blind spots out the driver's window due to design. On a winding road, I can loose sight of an oncoming car based on the angle of my curve. There are also times traffic coming at the driver perpendicularly is also not visible because of the car's driver side window and front end design. This is a major safety issue with this car. If I had realized it in advance, I would not have purchased this make of Fit.
