This article is primarily for the US, here in Canada, the FIT was going to land at dealerships sometime in JUNE anyways, not sure if this news will affect us in here or not....
The 2015 Honda Fit was supposed to begin shipping to customers in April 2014, but that hasn’t happened yet.
Consumer
Reports is reporting that dealers are telling customers who have
already ordered a Fit that there is a “shipping delay nationally,” and
offering no other information. A Honda spokesman did shed some more
light on the situation however, and revealed the issue to be the car’s
new production plant in Mexico.
“The Fit is being built for the first time in North
America, a significant new investment in Honda’s 8th auto plant in the
region and on that features some of Honda’s latest and most advanced
manufacturing technologies,” said Chris Naughton, Honda’s Northeast PR
Manager. “As this is an all-new plant, we are taking a measure approach
to the production ramp up and shipments from the plant have been slower
than anticipated,” he said.
