Honda Malaysia today announced a proactive product update involving approximately 36,000 units of the Civic, Civic Type R, and CR-V.

This activity is to update the Electric Power Steering (EPS) gearbox. The EPS gearbox worm wheel may swell and reduce grease film thickness, causing abnormal steering noise or sticky steering. The models involved include Civic Year Model 2022-2024, Civic Type R Year Model 2023-2024, and CR-V Year Model 2024.

Honda Malaysia apologises for the inconvenience caused to affected customers and reassures that other current production and selling models are not affected in this product update. The Company believes this proactive product update is necessary as customer safety is Honda Malaysia’s top priority.
