So I took a look, I see no reference to brake fluid change on my 2011 Honda fit and have went over 10,000 miles before the computer told me to change oil.

My 2012 Honda Fit manual does say this (in the section about the Maintenance Minder display and Maintenance Service Items):

I would be very surprised if that was added in 2012 since the changes in the chassis systems between those two years were very minimal.
