Problems and faults: Honda ZE1 Insight
- Poor air conditioning performance could be due to the air-conditioning suction hose collapsing internally.
- The rear wiper could interfere with the operation of the radio – this could be fixed with a new sub-harness wiring assembly.
- If the hood release was pulled up instead of straight out, it could get bent, making its release difficult and potentially requiring its replacement.
