2003 Honda Jazz: what owners report

• Brakes are the main inspection weak spot: the 2002–2008 car shows rusty brake lines and worn discs, the 2008–2015 car worn discs, and on the 2015–2020 car the rear brakes can seize.2002–2020
• Weak batteries are the second most reported fault among 111 French owners of the 2008–2015 Jazz, and are also a known issue on the first generation.2002–2015
• Rust shows on older cars: door edges, sills and tailgate on the 2002–2008 Jazz, and commonly on 11- to 13-year-old cars of the 2008-on generations in German inspections.2002–2014
• The CVT in the first generation (2002–2008) was noisy and jerky because of the wrong factory oil; workshops changed the oil under goodwill and in some cases replaced the gearbox.2002–2008
