How many miles on your 2015+?

(I didn't see a thread created for the 2015+ models.)

I posted on another thread, but figured it would be cool to see how many miles everyone has.

I bought the cheapest brand new fit I could find with a manual transmission back in June of 2015. I didn't care what color it was, as long as it had a stick.

I have an extremely long daily commute and needed a car to provide at least 40mpg with the least amount of issues. And so far, this car has been extremely impressive. I am going to clock 129k in the next few days and that is just short of owning it three years.

Here's the best part about this car. The only thing I've had to do to the car is normal oil changes, air filter and replace one set of tires at 65k. Yes, the factory tires made it 65k! I haven't touched the brakes, although they will need replaced soon. Just been waiting for the weather to break in NE Ohio.

Anyway, would love to see if anyone has 100k+ miles on their fit.

That's good to hear that your GK has gone that far with minimal maintenance. There was a user HarryHoudini or something like that who had 115k a few months ago, but that was before he got rid of it.

I only have about 58k on my 2015 (manufactured 12/14). It's been pretty low maintenance with only fluid/filters and a set of tires.

2015 EX 6 spd manual manufactured 11/14 bought 10/15. around 300 miles shy of 30k. 4 oil changes, 4 oil filter changes, 2 cabin filters, K&N air filter (2x cleaned), one set of winter tires. Been to the dealer 3x for the door bracket, VTC actuator and the transmission mount creaking on first gear. The first gear creak is back after 2 years, VTC actuator rattle is back right after it was replaced ( I guess it was not the cause of the rattle) Door handle bracket is holding up.Tried to install my swift spring but the f@#*ng top bolt won't budge. Now contemplating on trading it in for a 2018 fiesta ST. Otherwise it's been pretty reliable. One more thing I am starting to have this clunk on the front driver side and an annoying rattle on the rear driver side.

Bought my red EX June 2014. 28k miles, no problems. 13k of that is long distance. We live in a town that's won awards for being walkable.

2015 6MT base with 81k miles before trade in. New injectors at 17k, recall on coils & handle brackets; daily vtc rattles. Loved the car. But I like my newly acquired cvt even more.

I didn't know what you meant by the VTC rattles, so i Googled it and came across a thread with a video of it. Yeop, mine's been making that same rattle for pretty much the whole time I've owned it. I never thought much about it, just figured it was just noisy injectors or something because of the direct injection. I'll be damn.

Bought our '15 CPO a couple years ago, with 40000+ miles on it (previous owner apparently drove a lot o' hwy miles), am looking at just under 57000 miles now. Dunno if the previous owner got all the niggling problems taken care of and traded it in (out of frustration?) Dunno, but mine's been absolutely trouble free. It did do the cold start rattle one time this past winter, but may be due to relatively mild winter here in east TN. I searched long and hard for this manual trans Fit, and am intending to keep it a LONG time, as am afeared this may be my last chance to ever own a newish manual trans car.....you couldn't pay me to drive a CVT, although I may be forced to buy one in the future, dammit. I either got a good build (Jan '15, iirc), or, as previously surmised, the previous owner got all the problems folks have posted about fixed and ditched the car. It's been about perfect.....other than I'd like to put some fatter tires on it, but am too frugal to replace perfectly good tires...LOL...previous ownerhad Cooper CS3s (iirc) put on it and were like new when I bought it, and they still have a LOT of treadlife left. Cannnot complain about the tires, other than I'd like to go with 205s....eventually

Just over 57,000 miles since the day I bought it (Jan 2016). New tires Yokohama Avid Touring S last month. Rotors turned yesterday. New injectors and rails at 39k - fortunately had an extended warranty that paid for the repairs.

I've got a bit more than 34,700 on the odometer and a month left on the warranty calendar side. So far no major problems but all this talk of injectors and rails is scaring the hell out of me.

You have heard about Ford announcing they are planning on stopping the sales of the majority of their sedans and hatch-backs in North America?

Don't know if that would matter to you, but it would be at least something to consider. If Ford does go ahead with that business plan, and I was buying a Fiesta in North America, I'd want a real good deal, on what would probably be one of the last years it may be offered in the region.

2015 right at 3 years.. 85k on the clock. Only routine maintenance, other than replacing warped front rotors about a year ago.
