yours what variant?

Ehev rs

which part? got pic?

east msian too here

Thinking about buying the Civic RS Hybrid but the steering wheel issue seems rather widespread

Was contemplating V spec previously due to the RM20k rebate, but, decided against it. Having an issue is one thing, not having a solution is the scary part.

I really doubt the grease is a permanent solution, it feels more like a band aid than anything. I would like to be proven wrong though.

The grease method is probably temp fix n eventually will be pushed out after sometime maybe n HM havent do anythin yet,so its just replace no waste all owners time to go check/claim, wait n back to replace once parts arrive

Voice out on the racks issues

Done… although I’m no longer civic owner 😝

They will say HM still give warranty later. So use your AL to come weekdays for rack replacement every 6 months

Pure speculation on my part, they are probably close to the final root cause. But corrective action may not be so simple as “redistribute” grease and replace the tensioner spring. Maybe it will last you another 1 year.

Which is why they are not recalling FC civic which uses the same design. It’s is because that model is out of warranty and so recalling them AND giving yet another non permanent fix just make them liable for further fixes down the road when those owners come back and say hey come your recall not working in a few years later, and then they will have to offer another solution.

So, I speculate further that FG civic Baru their management all the way from North America side will demand a proper fix. If not cannot sell.

Edit
At least Honda Malaysia is trying to do the right thing.

Just wondering if anyone got a mail from Honda asking them to sent their Civic FE in for a product recall to replace the steering wheel?

I just got mail asking me do sent the car for a steering replacement.

Yes many owners gets this n can be several times need to change repeatedly

Basically change the same parts over and over again. Not a solution i guess

Imagine SC need to open the rack, regrease and perform the fix in civics, crvs


I hope the technicians will have the patience to do the jobs

Apparently in america they are doing it this way now:

but there'll be an updated easier method to smear the grease later after the official recall.

Don't understand the technicalities of all these thing, but as of now, it looks like a lot of work for just smearing some grease.

Look like a band aid only. Probably a flaw design that need redesign.

So 2 months after the initial tuk sound above, I can now feel the stickiness! Bravo Honda! Rate of degradation much worse than before and I can almost guarantee before 3 years of ownership I will have to replace again

Frustrating right?

For now I think just wait if there’s any proper fix by Honda Malaysia.
