You can read the article below and judge whether is Takata still using ammonium nitrate for their airbag inflator.

Take note that Takata's supplies were unable to meet the high demand in recall cars and new cars (2014 to 2016). They have already increased their production to 450,000+ per month. They even request help from their competitors to meet the demand in the recalls however due to the Takata design is different, their competitors requires time.

Well, only Takata and car makers knows what propellant is being used.

is this the new lunar silver? if yes can share pic. tq...

Looks like we are all involved, and the more recent models are deemed "safer" because it is still working fine... but we are living in a all year around humid environment... dangerous isn't it?

bought 2nd hand City 2014 E.
4x tyre botak already.
Thinking to change tyre. But im looking at the standard tyre size...kind of small 175/65/R14.
can change to 185/60/r15? If not, any other recommendation?

Then, any good place to change rim? Trade-in standard Honda Rim and change to other rim

Yeah, just try to be careful and take note of future product recall. Not just Honda, but other car brands as well..

Guess it's the old silver and not lunar silver

Anybody know how to remove the scratches on paint body (door handles section area) ???

I don't mean takata can produce airbag defect. I just guess takata try hiding or avoid this matter repeat again. Unexpected older car still alive in the world and things continue happened. Now there need take very big responsibility to facing a very big issues of airbag defects. Over million car recalled now.

What is the latest offer for city now?

Hi fellow sifus, I just got hold of my City V for a while. Wondering these two things.

- back suspension is pretty bad for comfort, humps and bumps are strongly felt by back passengers. would changing the tyres and suspension help? If yes, any suggested brand and will it void my warranty?

- I was on the slope and I let go of the brake pedal, I still reversed. Is hill start assist on by default? Or am I getting the wrong impression that it will hold the car in place ata slope?

Truly appreciate any input and feedback on the above. Thanks in advance masters!

When u were on the slope is the gear on D? When u let go of your brake pedal ur car will hold still for a while

It's normal case for back suspension to be really soft. This car is built for comfort that's why the absorber is so soft but wobbly causing passengers to be uncomfortable in long journeys. I added buffer spring to hold the absorber so it won't bound too much. Another solution is to change ur absorber but will void warranty I guess

Check the tyre pressure whether is it overinflated. Follow the recommended tyre pressure sticker at the body chassis when u open the driver/passenger door. Normally Honda Malaysia overinflate the tires when deliver to the customer.

Yup. Was on D. Oh it will only hold for a while? Will check it again as I thought it Will hold longer.

Thanks again

Thank you so much for the insights!

Yup. Did that and it helps a bit. Thanks for the advise.
