Honda Malaysia has announced a precautionary update for 87,182 units of its vehicles on the road comprising of the 2003-2008 Honda City, 2003-2008 Honda Civic, 2002-2007 Honda CR-V, 2004-2006 Honda Jazz, and 2004-2005 Honda Stream. This precautionary exercise is necessary to replace the driver and passenger airbag inflators with newly produced inflators for all affected models.

Honda Malaysia will be informing all customers involved via notification letters which will include details of the product update. Customers who receive these letters are advised to send their vehicles to the nearest authorized Honda dealer for inspection. The replacement works, costs and labour will be borne by Honda Malaysia. Vehicle owners can also check their vehicle's product update status by calling Honda's Toll Free number 1-800-88-2020 or at any authorized Honda dealer.

The precautionary efforts do not affect Honda's current selling models. Honda Malaysia deeply regrets the inconvenience caused to all affected customers.

Honda Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. continues to urge owners of Honda vehicles affected for the product updates to get their vehicles checked and parts replaced at any authorized Honda dealers as soon as possible.
