Honda Malaysia is recalling the City Hybrid 2021 and the Civic 2022 models as a precautionary safety measure.
In a statement, they shared that as many as 630 City Hybrid 2021 units are being recalled to replace the Advanced Driving Assistance System (ADAS) camera installed on the windshield as the camera may not be functioning properly, which can cause the ADAS to not be activated while driving.
“Meanwhile, 72 units of the Civic 2022 are also involved (to be recalled) as a measure to repair the welding spot on the sliding adjuster on the driver’s seat. This may cause the driver’s seat to not be in a fixed position while driving, and may effect the driver’s seat belt protection,” Honda Malaysia said.
According to a report by Astro Awani, the company shared that the inspection, repair and replacement of the effected parts will be free of charge, while all costs related to this recall activity will be borne by Honda Malaysia.
They have since also reassured everyone that no accidents or injuries have been reported so far, due to this problem.
“Honda Malaysia asks customers to download and update their details via the HondaTouch mobile application for further verification and will be informed via a notification, or they can also contact any authorised Honda dealer. We apologise for the inconvenience experienced by customers involved and assures that other models in production and sales are not effected,” they added.
Vehicle owners can obtain information or check the status of their vehicles, in regards to this recall by contacting Honda Malaysia’s toll-free line, 1-800-88-2200, or by visiting productrecall.honda.com.my.
