guys, how much ur sa quote u for windscreen insurance?
being quoted rm240 for rm1.5k windscreen, is this too much?
*
Let me contribute an accountant's view here...

Coverage RM1,500
The insurance premium RM240

RM1,500/RM240 = 6.25 times

In your driving experience, how many times have u had experienced windscreen damage?

I've been driving for 14 years, never had windscreen broken yet (touch wood).
If I had been buying this windscreen coverage, I'd have paid RM240 x 14 years = RM3,360, for nothing. Free money for insurance company. doh.gif

Self-insure is a method of managing risk by setting aside a pool of money to be used if an unexpected loss occurs. Theoretically, one can self-insure against any type of loss. However, in practice, most people choose to buy insurance against potentially large, infrequent losses.

Windscreen coverage can be inclusive of tinting.
If you have tinted your windscreen with reputable brands, then RM1.5k seems reasonable.

how to claim separately ?

(1) overtake secepat mungkin, or
(2) keep a safe distance

Honda Malaysia do not want to disclose it as it will affects their sales so no one knows.

Some car makers in the US still selling new cars with defective takata airbags

I think Honda admit the defected Takata airbags and do recall, while some other automaker did not want to admit and provide what brand of airbas they use, and still continue selling

QUOTE
Toyota Motor Corp, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV, Volkswagen AG and Mitsubishi Motors Corp are still selling new vehicles with defective airbags that will eventually need to be recalled, according to a report by a US lawmaker overseeing the agency handling the largest-ever auto safety recall.

Automakers confirmed they are continuing to sell some vehicles with ammonium-nitrate inflators without a chemical drying agent, and cited engineering and supply challenges to explain why they are still relying on the faulty airbags.
The vehicles are legal to sell but must be recalled by 2018.

Toyota, one of two automakers that did not provide specific models to Senate investigators, expects to produce approximately 175,000 vehicles with the defective Takata inflators by July 2017, the report said.

thats doesnt mean takata can produce defective airbags and compromise the driver safety.... ur statement doesnt make sense at all....

It is a very sad. Imagine your immediate family member killed for no reason.
People in USA sued Honda and Tataka until their pants drop, but such incidents remain pretty low profile in Malaysia despite taking away 3 lives.
My '06 Honda City has 2 air bags. They replaced my passenger side air bag, but driver side air bag is still out of stock. What i can do in the meanwhile is just to minimize the usage of that car.

What I understand is, you can claim your tint with your tint receipt after your windscreen is being repaired/replaced.

If you think 1.5k is too high then insured lower lor.

Wrong.
Honda declared recall to save their own ass from lawsuits.
So far their recall process has been slow and almost non-existent.

Only replace airbag driver side, no stock lah, appointment full lah, lots of excuses.
