Fuel injectors prematurely went out leaving me in limp mode with 4 lights flashing on the dash at 10mph on the interstate until I gave up and pulled over and just got a tow home

Fuel injectors failed (known issue) causing me to be stranded with kids. Car was under warranty. Dealer refused to cover under warranty even though federal emissions warranty required it for the mileage at the time. Next year catalytic converter failed causing me to fail emissions test. Dealer refused to cover under federal emissions warranty, claiming that fuel injectors cause the catalytic converter to fail and it the catalytic converter itself had no defects. Causing pollution, safety, and performance issues. Stranded with infant. Company violating clean air act and profiting on it.

New 2016 Fit with approx 5500 miles started developing an audiable ticking/clicking noise when releasing the clutch pedal going into 1st gear from a stationary position. Much more pronounce when on an incline and has progressively worsen since approx 3500 miles. No vibrations transmitted through the pedal assembly noted. Did not have this noise when the car was new. Dealer removed transmission, replaced clutch assembly and throwout bearing and returned car under warranty. Clicking noise persist. Brought back to dealer a second time, shop foreman spoke to Honda techline and concluded audiable clicking/ ticking during clutch release is a characteristic of the new 6 speed transmission/gearbox, & documented all is normal. Been driving manual vehicles for over 20 years with all transmission/clutch components lasting 80-90K miles before first service/ component replacement. This including a cable actuated clutch that was quieter than this. Never encountering this before. Guess time will tell if it is a design or assembly flaw, or infact a " normal characteristics" of this new 6 speed manual gear box. Atleast all is documented in Honda database.
