Guys I am about to buy a civic rs, shall I ask then to replace steering before taking delivery? Or how do one get this steering issue fix ?

They will never do it until or unless you start facing issues.

pwuser150149127562 (Xaini) 2023-11-30 18:23:16 +0500 #10350

So basically one have to put his life on line to drive rs?

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-11-30 19:15:58 +0500 #10351

Not at all. its frustrating and nothing else.Again not all cars had issue.

Whats the backstory of 829

pwuser150149127562 (Xaini) 2023-11-30 22:58:18 +0500 #10354

So should I be worried purchasing this car or how do I make sure that I won't get steering issue while driving on 100? Anyway to check which cars are effected?

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-12-01 01:00:57 +0500 #10355

The issue may come around 5-6k kms if the old part is installed or may not come ever. U will easily feel the noise while turning fully on 1 side. Its, not something that will give u any goose bumps. Since 11th steering too soft, even minor issue will be noticeable in no time. Just relax and enjoy. this car is a treat to drive...since u have warranty, really nothing to bother or worry about.

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-12-01 01:02:50 +0500 #10356

I wont even care buying a used one as well as it can be checked in 1 min. You may never face the issue as its random. same applies to all asians and US models, not all are faulty

pwuser150149127562 (Xaini) 2023-12-01 05:10:34 +0500 #10357

Thank you for your kind reply, I did some digging and there are two fatal crash internationally because of this issue so I am a bit concerned
As you say there is no way to check until the issue arrives is a major question mark that what if issue arrives when I am driving on motorway and steering gets free on the critical kalar kahaar junction

pwuser150149127562 (Xaini) 2023-12-01 08:42:29 +0500 #10358

Can you share more info about this? I was about to buy rs couple days back when I heard about this issue, how long warranty claim will take if you talked to Honda,a?
More importantl question is would it be accident if you were on high speed or any motorway etc?

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-12-01 18:53:45 +0500 #10359

issue never comes suddenly. It will give u clear indication well before time. 10th had stuck issue, this time its not stucking.. its sticking.. u can call me and i can explain what it feels like

It wont be an issue on highway as its feel on full turn. Secondly, warranty claims these days takes 3-4 weeks.Remember it's not amotor issue. its rack issue only. In X, it used to be motor + rack

I'm facing a problem with adaptive cruise control as it tries to lower speed or auto brakes if it detects a vehicle in other lane even though my lane is clear. It makes me annoyed to use it. Has anyone experienced it ? and pls suggest a solution.

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-12-08 02:26:56 +0500 #10362

Reduce the distance setting..and it won't interfere this much... The 3 lines button. It covers 120 degree field of view to judge speed. I have used it a lot on the motorway along with LKAS and it has become very comfortable

esze1350 (Sulaman Khan) 2023-12-11 20:19:13 +0500 #10363

I would have to disagree with you here. I am a regular LHR-ISL-LHR traveler. It sure is good when the Motorway is relatively empty or u can say has very less traffic. But once you get traffic it becomes a big headache and u are forced to switch it OFF and u start missing regular cruise control!

esze1350 (Sulaman Khan) 2023-12-11 20:23:43 +0500 #10364

You like to repeat it alot that it is a "Global" problem and not just Pakistan. Okay it is.

But how does saying that help!!
or saying it has any value!

I mean i am not sure how does that make it any less disappointing, how does saying that not make it a major quality headache! or soothe your pain!
i have just started having the problem at 8,500km. And it makes it massively disappointing, i mean come on, my 2 year old way cheaper Alto does not have the problem.
And it is way more disappointing also considering they just could not fix it with the new model when it was already there in last generation! i mean come on Honda, what a shit show!

The only upside of it being a global problem is that local warranty claims will get processed faster and dealerships will not argue too much about it. Contrast this with if the problem had been in local PKDM only. In that case how would the customer experience be in terms of warranty claims?

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-12-12 01:48:04 +0500 #10366

The reason I call it global is the claims will be covered way longer than the warranty. In X, even today steering racks are being replaced where cars are dealership maintained and warranty has expired. The thing is if it would been an Atlas side thingy, claims would have been a real mess. Yes my alto also ha sno steering issue but in case of Honda, the only thing that is expected to have a problem is steering..

Start from 8th gen till today, its steering always

fastian04 (Salman) 2023-12-12 01:48:59 +0500 #10367

We have claimed X after warranty when issue occured.. purely claimed due to a global issue else Atlas nay to pheray lagwanay thay
