I’m a previous Civic ketam owner and replaced my steering rack in 2018 once, after that it’s been smooth sailing until earlier this year when I sold the car off for this CR-V RS. IMO every brand has their own issues, and what I’m grateful is Honda Malaysia (and global Honda) owning up to this and at least they’re attempting to help rectify the issue. Just let your SC know during your next service you’re experiencing symptoms and they’ll advise you on next steps.

Personally I’m also feeling the sticky steering on low speeds now, so I’ll bring this up during my next service in February. Hopefully they have the parts then to replace the faulty unit

I live in Penang island so most driving are city driving, around 20km/L is my best when I travel from one end of island to the other; but if short distances it’s around 15km/L. If driving a bit more aggressively it’s 13km/L.

Overall very smooth power delivery, and if you control your right foot a little or stuck in traffic jam, it’ll operate in EV mode in complete silence. I believe the biggest pro of the RS is the electric torque because I couldn’t believe how a big hunking SUV can accelerate so quickly and smoothly from stop.

Tyres I traded in the crap factory ones on day one. 1k only to switch to Michelin Primacy SUV+, and the road noise insulation and comfort across bumps are day and night. I also feel very confident in the wet driving at high speeds. I swapped on day one because on my Civic I stayed with factory tyres for quite long and regret it every day I drive the car so I figured it’s not worth it.
