Some people put on a lot of miles, some put on few. I post the average odometer reading with each set of results, to provide some indication of this. Will do more when the sample size permits it.
Short answer: happy to have you!

Those results posted:
TrueDelta Vehicle Reliability Survey results
The repair rate of the 2007 continues to be low, only 20 successful repair trips per 100 cars. No result for the 2008 yet, but likely in August.
Additional participants would be very helpful for either model year.

Another update has been posted, and the Fit continues to have a low repair rate.
Even Hondas can have bugs when new. I'd like to have a quick result for the new 2009, so hopefully a few dozen owners sign up in the next few months.

Any 2009s out there? The sooner we get enough participants, the sooner we'll have a result...

Thank you for signing up, I appeciate it.
Because the research process collects data going forward, when you first buy the car is actually the best time to join.
Additional participants always helpful.

Updated results in mid-November. We've had very good participation by Fit owners. But more would be even better.
The 2009 won't be in these results--it's too recent--but should be in the next update, in February.

94 2007 Fits signed up so far -- 100 soon?
Also doing well with the 2008, if not as well.

Now 98 2007s--need just two more to have 100 signed up.
58 2008s, which is also good. But the 2009s, with 46, are catching up quickly.
Overall, great participation by Fit owners. But more would be even better.

This month's survey is the last before the February results. Additional participants always helpful.

Initially the results will be more ****ogous to those of J.D. Power's Initial Quality study.
But data collection is continuous--this isn't just a one-time survey. Quarterly updates will reflect repair rates as the cars age. All results will include an average odometer reading, to make it clear what age cars the results pertain to. Once the sample size permits, there will also be adjustments for the odometer reading.

Signed my '09 up.

Apparently you can say analyst.
Result next week. Great start, with more 2009s than 2008s already signed up. That said, additional participants always helpful.

Those results have been posted. The Fit continues to require few repairs.
A big thanks to everyone who has been helping. We'll have further updates in May, August, and November, so additional participants would certainly be helpful.
TrueDelta now has a separate results page for each model that includes the scores of competitors for easy comparisons. The one for the Honda Fit:
