Ahead of the coming Hari Raya celebrations, when Malaysians clog the roads back to our hometowns, Honda Malaysia is reminding owners of the Honda City (year 2003 to 2005) to go for free rear seat belt installation at any Honda 3S Centre.
25,480 units of the Honda City sold in that period came without a rear centre seat belt. For these cars, the company made an announcement for free installation beginning October 2008, with costs borne by Honda Malaysia. However, as of today, more than 50% of these units have yet to be brought in for remedy.
Jabatan Keselamatan Jalan Raya initiated a rear seat belt campaign back in June 2008 and had given car owners a grace period of three years beginning January 2009 to install rear seat belts in their cars, compulsory for cars registered from January 1995 onwards. The ruling takes effect from 1 January 2012.
If you own a 2003-2005 Honda City, or know someone who does, it’s wise to take action now and book an appointment with your Honda 3S Centre. Remember to buckle up, whether you’re sitting in front or at the back. It’s the law, and it can save your life.
