Hi Guys and Honda owner, I am undergoing a situation with Honda Malaysia for my City which put in me in a helpless position. Would like to seek you guys' advice/opinion on how to take the matter forward.
Below is part of the discussion I have had with Honda
Malaysia (via email) of which I have also posted on their Facebook.

Hi Honda Malaysia,

This is regarding an issue now I'm having with my Honda City. On 11Jan14, sent my car for service due to malfunction of air cond at 1130am as scheduled one day in advance. Was told to wait until 3pm, left 3S centre and waited my car from home. Received a call from Service Adviser (SA) from centre informing that my car's metter assy was faulty causing malfunction of air-cond and it required to be exchanged to a new one, was told that they will submit my claim on 13Jan14. Got a call from the SA that the claim was submitted on 13Jan14 but can"t guarantee when the part will arrive, not even dates before CNY. I called the SA on 15,16,20Jan but still not getting any good news for the car. I asked whether there is a courtesy car for my temporary usage but unfortunately no. SA responded several times to me that HONDA HQ has no stocks for the part.

Would like to express the unsatisfactory of
which the part requires such long waiting period. Apart from my car requiring this part, trust the same part is used for your NEW car in production. My preference of this first car is Honda is due to its reputable quality and service, however this issue is a huge disappointment to me. Further, the communication given by dealer was not professional in terms of after-sales service. I demand that I will be contacted immediately once the part is available because the condition of car now is unbearable.

*Please see enclosed response from Honda Malaysia's customer care.

Thanks for your attention.

Thank you in advance for the suggestions/opinions.

I've managed to do about 160-170KMph on my City few weeks ago heading down to Singapore. But it sure stresses the engine and the gearbox for sure. Of course with the under-carriage shield, it helps with the aerodynamics during high-speed. Less air drag though!

To help with this, I had the 'Potent Booster' installed to assist with the gear shift on low speed. You might want to read up about it too. In my case, it does help a lot for me though. 

from my experience. honda dont repair or touch up, they change the whole thing

How long did you had to wait for the part replacement with Honda SC? OR anyone experienced re-spray body paint job with Honda SC; how long you had to wait? A day at least? Thanks! 

guys anyone know how much a 2011 V spec used with mileage about 110k can worth?

if you are under warranty go back to SC, but from my 4 years experience with the car - this is caused by the battery ...

Replaced the battery on mine and sometimes still got this same issue. Car seems reluctant to start after a short drive to the petrol pump for example.

Rarely happens so pretty hard to ask SC to check. Haih.

Thanks, I think i'll ask them to check mine next service.
Yea, thanks. I'll do that.

Glad that this is not an isolated case like what I experience with my previous car.
