Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Continuing problem with 2007 honda fit automatic transmission hesitation to down shift at 2-5 mph, such as rolling stops at yield signs. when you step down on accelerator transmission seems to get confused and does not allow acceleration at all for 2-3 seconds. it is okay if completely stopped, but not from a rolling stop. this is very dangerous, and has almost caused an accident several times. the honda dealer acknowledged that this was a defect, but honda technical support said the fit models all do it, and there was nothing that could be done about it. *ak
