Steering rack issues i know are:
1) got noise when turning
2) the steering become sticky to turn (this one is more dangerous to safety)

Dunno why Honda still havent change their supplier

Or is it design issue?

lemonade

for boss ok lor claim every 6 months

ada Honda ada awek hisap

continue buy honda, they will cut more costs

cukur dpt claim warranty

baru mau post ,. u sudah post dulu.

sedih la wei. civic my favourite car . baru ingat mau cari used one . but cancel wei like this. gila apa new car pun 3-4 time claim steering rack . out of warranty later memang habis liao

I thought Honda parts all the while memang doesn't last long?

Stiff Ring
Ultra Racing Bar
Tien Absorber
Solved the issue
.

I heard it's a supplier problem, but I also heard it's a design problem... Why is it a design problem because the car is too much for the steering rack to handle...

Also, Honda is well known for their shit quality... How do I know?

I have a 2017 HRV. These are what I've claimed and what I have to fork out from my pocket.

1. Tensioner (Warranty - ~ 20k km)
2. Side Mirror (Warranty)
3. Steering Rack (Warranty)
4. Absorber (Pocket) - I went for Tein because Ori honda shit
5. Lower Arm (Pocket)
6. Bar Bush (Pocket)
7. Rear Axle bush (Pocket - Soon)
8. Rear Absorber mounting (Pocket - Soon)
9. Tensioner + Idle bearing + Belt (Pocket - Soon)
------------
1 & 2 - Caught by SC inspections

1 & 3 - Very well-known Honda problem on all their cars. If you are lucky, it will last. If not --pocket--

2 - The side mirror was changed under warranty but recently realized the motor started to slow down.

4,5,6,7,8 - Yes, wear and tear... But the fact is my car is only 5 years old, and only driven ~65K before need to change these

3 - Here's the thing: 2 times asked them to check - no issues, only on the 3rd time, Oh steering rack gone after I sent them a knocking sound video when turning left and right. Then only they proceed to do the claim (4 months before warranty end) - LOL


Another very well-known Honda issue is
1. CVT belt, even with normal driving, there is a high chance for it to break before 100k or after 100k. (~RM 4k to replace)
2. Drive Shaft

Another ongoing issue is
1. Clunking sound I've changed so much. Yet there's still sound here and there.
2. Knocking sound from CVT/Drive shafts - Noticed this 2 years after gotten the car but SC say no issue.


If can go for Toyota only... My Innova 2012, 120k. Still with original parts, not even once need to claim warranty or replace. Only recently, there have been signs of wear and tear on bushings. But still feels as good as new and has no annoying sounds.

My Honda also got some sounds when go over bump.
Changed stabiliser link, tie rod and rack end and absorbers with mounting. Still got sounds. Doesn’t sound like steering rack knocking sounds also hmm

Honda civic not for human buy second hand one
Due to their insane resale value

If you buy civic second hand, you already waterfish to the first hand user

Second hand need to find value, like Altis or Mazda 3

Its the back absorber bushing.

I kena before. Change one of the back absorber bush. The slight knocking sound isnrantly gone lol.

Toyota Corolla CBU don't want to buy? die die want to buy CKD Civic...padan muka.

Second hand myvi also don't have so much issue Wei

Yes, but your time is not included. also for things like steering rack. Need to drop the front subframe inorder to change usually it will take a day or two.

How did you know your steering rack bush are gone?

tldr, I'm more curious when you gonna sell the HRV

https://youtu.be/7B1ok5-s3_8

Okok thanks for replying

ppl laugh at Altis sales, meanwhile my dad drove Altis 7 years d, nothing to claim under warranty pun

Prob in the next 1 or 2 years. Unless CVT or Engine gone. Prob that time will get Cross or Mazda no more Honda

Change rack every 10k is a small effort to have awek bj you for free daily in the car

People said toyota boring car... Just pump petrol and change oil only, no excitement

Other brand better, can lounge in service center utilise all their amenities, some brand can make friend with towing company and spending day night reading online for info

Adoi ...

my house 2008 altis now clocking 400k km, daily drive and long distance no problem, park under sun everyday somemore

check the suspension coil rubber seat, most likely the culprit....

new car, naiisee to go over speed bump at high speed

Sampah honda product. Buy mazda better

For me ill prefer boring car with less tech in it.. more tech in it once gone all gone

Sure or not? My HRV brand new 20km/h goes over a speed bump and will hit the bump stop already. HAHA

Shocked to see this thread. I should stop telling people "ada duit beli honda.. no money, then only drive perodua like me."

now when ever reach bump, drive slow until 2kmh, drive fast fast no prize

My acv41 that my dad using now.
2011 car. Just pump petrol and go
And do regular service only.
Good car.

I wonder if City is using the same steering rack. I'm having steering rack issue too.

Honda, the power of dreams ma

Means you can only dream of driving the car, don't try to drive for real

They are all different but presumably from the same manufacturer. But the main issue is they might have cheap out or put in an under build steering rack that's why a lot of problems.

Front only rm35
better do it, later uneven tyre wear

impossible 35 only...
maybe around 100++....
my area quite cut throat.....

Alignment manade RM100+? Usually RM40 iirc.

Never face such issues yet, coming to 3 years, mileage 18k

sure or not. even my persona 2016 version nth broken yet. 55k milage.

many of my friends ketam ok jer.

Every car also got their problem.

Like ma old man Nissan got dashboard peeling problem, got airbag problem, plug coil, etc.

My car pula every other day need to replace lower arm, bush, beering.

Chibai betul

your car subaru xv?

Toyota also had the same problems too, worse is that the die hard fans will plotek and called you a moron if you highlight the problem in the FB group.

asalkan lotus ride and handling

my area all around 100++....
even p2 sc also around that price....
plus the road full of holes and bump...
alignment also no use....

Boring is good.

Problems no good.

sure bo? alignment only no money?

family have a city 2021, claimed steering rack once. so far so good. But in fb group all said will come back. Let's see.

Love the Camry. Not to mention NVH pun sedaps. Comfort and peace of mind. Indeed a good car and good choice.

welcome to HM, overrated piece of Junk. Own their car since 2015. Claimed 3 times driveshaft cz oil leak. Side mirrors change under warranty cz vibrates at high speed. Juddering brake (this one sure all Model HM will get this) cz using junk made in Thai brakepad.
Things that not declared or even Car Reviewer wont said: - Poor NVH, just a slightly better than P2 model cz Cheapskate/ cut cost for the Sound Insulation material inside the car. ABS Modulator will kiock after warranty ended and need rm8k for my model if change new. Repair at rm1k-1.5k

TBH, Honda quality has gone down the drain these few years. Ask any Honda owner and they will gladly tell you. Dashboard and interior components are not only plasticky but sharp at the edges which actually cut your hands if you happen to touch the wrong spots. Poor finishing, low quality components are the reasons to be blamed. I guess they tried to hard at cost cutting and hence the poor quality of parts and components.

i in City gen whatapps group. got owner already on 4th time steering rack, majority on 2nd. more now heading 3rd change. Pro, SC just approve the warranty claim

just hope the current owner don't argue on this or die2 say the cars are good. Truth hurts.

Alignment very expensive at my area....

I thought kedai tayar can do alignment. Or yours still under warranty?

my civic June 2022, Jan 23 Tuk Sound appear and become louder, steering sticky, claimed steering rack at June 2023.

Sept 2023, small Tuk sound is back.. but steering is not sticky..

A nice car to drive, solid interiors, but the steering rack issue is killing this car..

TBH, the car tech and innovation is good. But its the inferior quality of parts and components and the poor workmanship of CKD units and Thai CBU which is the cause of problems.

typical bangsa H merehsia

other country pipu won't consider H

No more warranty.. .
Kedai tayar /workshop / sc around same price...100+++

My ex Vios (1st Gen) should be either ckd or MIT jugak. I have nothing but praise for it. My City meanwhile....

Have the same car and similar list of repair like yours. It's a quality issue. Never again a Malaysia Honda. Lapsap brand.

But sounds seems come from front passenger side wheel there

Ya, very similar. Yours very loud though.
It sounds like something scratch on the bottom when go over bump. Found the culprit?

Hmm? Which one is that? Whole suspension changes except coil and cover only

Vios 1st Gen is CKD. One of the best generation vios of all.

Where is "My Honda Tak Guna" meme car?

toyota da best

rip

i dunno which workshop u go, every tyre shop I went also charge around 30-60
perodua SC charge around 70+, I know because my sibling is driving perodua. all perodua SC price should be standard

Simply search also can find cheaper, Autohaus KL

lu know la....Soviet.....cekik darah place...

Lexus better, CBU Japan, not the Shah Ale one

there are plenty of good tyre shop who perform good alignment and balancing. but mind u, there are plenty that try to scam user by giving the chamber adjustor kit at rm30 per side (+rm120) sometime. Just teach all say F to those parts.

Haha those people who recently bought HRV gen 4 are up into some issues down the road. My GF uncle owns one and already complained got sound, LOL. Nice on the outside but quality dog..

Till now, I haven't found the issue, went to 4 Workshops and reinstalled the absorbers a couple of times, but the sound is still there. The only things I could think of were engine mountings, drive shaft, and roll bar bush (currently using OEM, but I bought ORI when getting other parts, and will install them this Thursday). I went to the extreme to install a cam to see what's knocking, but haven't figured out where is it coming from.

Install what cam? Install at tayar area to monitor?

Yes install a cam

https://youtu.be/7B1ok5-s3_8?si=I_vmJGAaYGPl8fg8

Happend to me once when I go do alignment they say need to install chamber bolt.. That time I don't know so I say ok.. But after that I did my research I went to a WS ask them to remove it.. Lucky I kept the original because chamber bolt can break uppon impact

made in melaka
whadaya expect luls

Oh wow. Impressive

my fav camry, my eldest sister had one before and she was selling it to change to new car, i wanted to buy but no more place to park in my house (occupied by 5 other cars). Still feeling regret till this day for not getting it.

becos that time sat their 2014 benz e200, then sat on the camry and camry is way more comfy and nicer. Only two major issues tht 10 years old camry had (at that time), spoilt spark plug coil & needed to change absorbers

I believe the new one only top body and inside changed, underneath it's the same shit all over it.

Also check that silly bottom cover. That thing dropped after 5 minutes coming out from SC. They used cable tie to replaced the broken plastic nuts. Useless design. At first I thought it's mechanical thing because the sound come in only when going over bump like thud thud sound.

So... Proton > Honda now?

inb4 buy 2

mebe if proton s50 comes out civic sales will tank kek

This is suppose to the best Camry.
Comfy and very good nvh. Hence they say this is the most lexus Camry.

Change absorber is not an issue. Wear and tear only.

Anyway mine still running strong, so far so good. Just do regular service. My dad happy with the car. Just drive. No need worry.

i don't think honda doesn't wanna fix the issue
claiming a brand new steering rack every 10k KM or 6 month...honda lagi rugi

how old is your car
when u got sound when go over bump, it usually is the absorber mounting wearing out due to age

Kesian. Later Civic FE Club (Gen12) will created as Gen11 will close due to honda Malaysia will send LOD to this group. Kek
