Honda Fit lock cylinder may not turn due to rust inside the lock cylinder or damage to a certain component. Below is an introduction to the related content of Honda XRV: 1. Power: The Honda XRV is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine that meets the National VI emission standard, with a maximum power of 177 horsepower. The transmission system continues to match with a 6-speed manual and CVT gearbox. 2. Design: The rear bumper of the Honda XRV is decorated with chrome trim, enhancing the sense of refinement; in terms of the exhaust system, the new car will provide either dual exhaust pipes or single exhaust pipe depending on the model. The interior design of the Honda XRV continues the current design style, with a simple center console shape and a reasonable layout of functional areas.
As someone with years of experience in car repair, I've encountered many cases where the Honda Fit's lock cylinder won't turn. The most common reasons are key wear or dirt accumulation inside the lock cylinder—dust or rainwater buildup over time can cause rust and jamming. Another possibility is mechanical failure in the lock mechanism, such as a broken spring or detached pins. I recommend first checking if the key is smooth and undamaged. If the key is fine, try spraying some lock lubricant inside, but avoid forcing the key to turn to prevent damaging the cylinder. If lubrication doesn't help, take it to a repair shop or dealership immediately—they can perform a thorough cleaning or replace the lock cylinder. After all, the lock cylinder is crucial for anti-theft security and shouldn't be neglected. To prevent this, avoid exposing the keyhole to water when parking and perform regular maintenance.
