In you pic, is the issue with the pilar cover not proper fit to the dashboard?

I've already told you all that if CKD,

P1 = P2 = Toyota = Honda

Now u all believe me????

Until Proton dies, issues like this will be considered as "biasalah, CKD"

different assemble batch will have different potential issues... & among them will have a few lemom grade car...

I've had problems with Honda as well....Last time it was still under Kah Motor...

My dad bought a Honda Civic 1.6 Vtec in 1996. We went to the showroom to collect the car. When the car came, it turned ot to be manual(we ordered auto). Nevermind, the Sales Rep offered to bring us to the place where the issue out cars(dunno what place, forgot), there we saw the car that is supposed to be ours(matching coulour, engine codes, chasis number), and it was in horrendous condition...

Dust everywhere, rims dirty, it wasn't a new car at all! The driverside back door panel has the body colour paint over it, (that means they didn't dismantel the door panel before painting, they just painted the paint over it).So my dad complained that he wanted a NEW car, not some car that has been outside for ages....

After much negotiation, the sales rep offered free tinting and some other free stuff. So my dad accepted.

The car was alright. We took the car for it's first 1000km service. The service went quite ok, i think.

When we took the car back, a bird poopped on the mirrow, so we used to sprinkler and clean the poo with the wiper. A few drop of water from the sprinkler fell on the bonnet(normal lah), and to our surprise, there were smoke comming out from the "water" on the bonnet. We stopped the car by the side, and checked, it was some kinda chemical reaction with the metal bonnet, and the sprinkler sprayed the water up till the roof of the car and a bit on the boot. The car's roof was all ruined with the "water".

We took it back to Honda, complained KAU KAU....then they checked out and out out that their service people mistakenly put some kinda chemical into the water sprinkler compartment.

My dad demanded a new car, Kah Motor refused but said that they will replace the bonnet,boot and repaint the roof.

My dad consulted a lawyer after that.

After that, all i know is that we got a new car with new registration and we had a temporary car from Kah Motor to use during the process. The new car didn't do quite well either, damn a lot of parts broke down in less than 3 years.

Since then, my dad never buys a Honda car.

BTW, this happed in 1996-1997, about 10 years back. The Civic was sold to get an Altis, which is way better than the Civic.

i am dam shocked with the 2 pages of problem posted in 8th gen civic forum ... 120k car with such quality .. very disappointing..

When that happens, still "CKD, normal la tu".
Will blame on Proton again becoz CBU too expensive.
I thought Honda & Toyota is perfect

i want some too

I'm not going to start a war but when it becomes to consumer rights, no matter u're Honda, Proton, Merc, BMW, we fight it together.

Heard of the saying "Grass is greener on the other side."?

Your friend hasn't worked at the Proton assembly plant, how could he know it's better than Honda? Maybe he'll vomit everyday at work.

And yeah, we'd like to blame your friend's lackadaisical attitude for crappy Honda cars. Can we cut off his penis too?

ms hypermount n her female frd

Hi walau !
My fren 8th gen civic also got the same problem like u !
I've noticed the A pillar problem and when got heavy downpour, the roof is not well insulated. The soundproofing for the roof is very poor. Really dunno what to say, i think the toyota vios soundproofing better than the civic.
What can my fren do about this ?

hey..i m realli surprised with this issue..
i nvr thought the ckd quality of honda cars were like this..
i hv nvr bought a car myself b4..but i do read a lot..
it seriously sucks man..

y so long oni this issue brought up?

is this the same for beemers/ toyota??

i was thinking 1 day..the honda stream will b mine..

i tink v all better buy local cars for life or as long as we're in Malaysia..

There should be less problems with CBU cars.
Try telling those with lots of money to buy local cars for life. See if they laugh in your face.

Quite surprising that even though Honda Malaysia is managed by an japanese elected from the HQ, QC problems still appears. Even UMWT is not spared with QC problems as well. Still i believe this is the problem of the workers themselves.

Most of out local assemblers are still on manual labor and lower tech/QC than those in Japan/Europe. That the price to pay for our beloved NAP.

From ms hypermount point of view revealing that his friend who is an honda employee is driving a savvy, sounds to me he is trying to get the whole malaysia to buy and drive savvy.
