We went through three CVT's with the Civic GX before we traded it in. Toyota uses a completely different type of CVT in the Prius that does not have the weakness inherent in others. What goes out frequently with the Honda CVT is the start-stop clutches.

emotionr...I too, live in Texas. The a/c in the Fit works fine! Even though I've only had my Fit two weeks, every day the temp has been 98 degrees+, within 4 - 5 minutes I have to turn DOWN the blower.
