Quick question: Does the Fit come with a jack?

I'll be picking up a 2012 Sport soon. I know it comes with a spare tire, but does it come with a jack? Or should I keep the one that came with my 1997 Civic?

Okay, thanks. The only "jack" that comes up on the Honda specs page is for USB.

You might not see it as it is tucked to the rear of the spare, which is under the floor.

Haven't picked up the Fit yet. The dealership was out of Vortex Blue. They're promising they'll have one this week.

This is my first new car. Sorry for the newbie question. I'll probably be asking a few more before long.

Suggestion- learn how to use the jack when you get the car, don't try to figure it out when you get a flat tire at night when it's raining. Some jacks are held in place by a bit of pressure so you have to turn the jack screw a bit to get the jack out.

Don't they give you a can of fix-a-flat in place of the jack?

Just as good imo.



Besides, it's Canadia, their tires can still roll frozen.
