thx guys. im looking at the facelift model year 2014, should be covered under warranty (if the owner follow the service schedule). price below 100k. so the steering rack and air cond is manufacturing problem or wear and tear prob?

I will advice you to call up to Nazakia customer service to check the car services.

For steering rack and air cond, depend on your luck. But if you car is still under warranty, then you have no worry at all.

Cheers!

1.)  you need to ask the sc to update the aircond software.  i thought all sc should know that if u report your aircond is not cold.

2.)  please check your car user manual, it states that very clear.  i believe is either at 40k or 50k km.

you can find all your questions with answers from your sc if you stick to your service scedule.

cheers!

I never go to sc.

Thrown away my warranty when I bought the car.

Don't want to be cheated.

Car now about 76k.

Recently had a problem with my steering.

There was a bit of free play and klunking noise from steering column.

No warranty.

Lucky I didnt send to SC otherwise they will ask me to change whole steering column for x thousands.

Settled outside for RM180.

Not sure the name but the culprit is a small gear made of rubber. It is approx 1" diameter.

Apparently the part sudah hancur hence the free play and rattling.

Replaced the part and now all ok.
