I took delivery of my used 2015 Fit last Saturday in Houston. I drove home and got up the next morning to change engine oil to synthetic and while I was under the car noticed a bracket on the right rear wheel hanging down. (this was a car that had a 100+ point inspection) When I finished the task at hand I backed up the car onto the ramps. What I found was that the bracket that holds up the brake line was pointing straight down and the curl (lack of a better term) that holds the brake line was straightened out. It is obvious that the bracket had gotten caught on something and pulled it straight down and stretched the brake line. I didn't see any leaks and I think I can repair the bracket so that the curl holds the brake line up... or I can bring it back to the dealer who may or may not be sympathetic to my dilemma.

Some concerns going through my mind... is this line easy to change out? I didn't follow it out but it runs into housing toward the front of the car. Should I demand that the line be changed?

Regards,

Michael
