Sloshing gas
Ok - this is something I just found out about a few days ago. I never knew that the gas tank was under the drivers seat. This thought bothers me and now that I am reading you can feel and hear the gas sloshing - it really bothers me. With the tank being so near to the engine what type of steps did Honda take to insure that the tank is safer in that location. I am seriously rethinking my purchase of the Fit because of this. I use to drive an exploding Ford Pinto back in the days and don't want to go back to that nightmare! Any idea of what safety factors Honda took to make this work?
