Malaysian brand is superior to Japan brand?

January 31, 2010 @ 8:18 pm

it is related dude. Malaysian are brand conscious because we look down to Proton because it still like a behave like a child hide behind mommy all the time. Why not let Proton survive itself and open up automobile industry, BECAUSE scared it will bancrupt in short time.

Then how long it need to be protected and why it EXIST in first place…Nation pride??? WAKE UP, this is world of business-ONLY THE STRONG WILL SURVIVE!!!

Other country also protect their automobile like japan and korea…

FINE and i dont care if PROTON is as GOOD as T&H or Hyundai and KIA…

The point is:: when you are a child, you will be protected by your parents, when you become adult, it is your turned to protect yourself and your parent. If you cant do this simple things, two words for you–FAILED AND USELESS (Proton)

————————————————————–

OK FINE! GOV. BOLEH TARIK BALIK PERLINDUNGAN TERHADAP P1 & P2,

DENGAN SYARAT JEPUN & KOREA PUN MESTI SANGGUP BUKA

PASARAN AUTOMOTIF NEGARA DIAORANG……LOL

Proton may not be perfect, but since DSZ (Proton MD) came in, at least we're seeing it heading to the right direction. He's an ex-Perodua guy, so that's kinda reassuring at least. It's unfortunate it was crap during TM days, but as u can see, DSZ has worked hard to win back the support it lost… and gain support from international market. I heard they're doing very nice in Thailand and Indonesia. Next: Saga BLM in India? Oh yeah

kau ingat tukar gov boleh tukar gov

please lah brader,ko tngok ah PEE ARE pun sekarang baru handle berapa negeri pun dah tunggang terbalik,sebaiknya biar proton urus sendiri atau biar kerajaan lepaskan diorang

lagi baik kalau diorang buat partnership dengan syarikat automotive lain,mungkin diorang boleh tolong proton dalam cara nak tingkatkan kualiti

note:i'm out of topic,i admit it.but i need to say something to this jangan tipu sendiri

CHANGE GOV,DOESNT MEAN THAT THEY CAN CHANGE PROTON

Finally, i just do not understand that why we still have Malaysian till today that only think recall must associate with death.

—————

OneEarth, even in America they only recall car if there is a SAFETY HAZARD. If you have a malfunctioning car part that does not endanger your safety, they wouldn't recall the car.

Note that the Honda Jazz/Fit/City recalls are regarding with its power windows.

Oliver, Honda's power window problem killed someone. That's why they have to recall those cars. The switch could short itself if it came in contact with a liquid and caught fire.

Note that the Honda Jazz/Fit/City recalls are regarding with its power windows.

================

and u know what.. current common problem for Myvi and p2 products is POWER WINDOW SWITCH problem… why they never recall???

prrrfthh

pity ah beng japs wannabe..

may i repeat the title

'Honda Jazz worldwide recall over switch defect'

and you all should post something related to this

you may include toyota's recall issue,but why suddenly Proton

are you all out of your mind?

bash this,bash that

get a life,moron

i'm not defending proton,but please proton is new in designing their own car

don't compare nissan,toyota,honda,etc…

please give them some time

if you all keep buying overseas product,who wanna support malaysia product

those japanese and the korean are the one who will be richer and richer,not us

please if you all really hate them,just shut up and stop buying proton.

ok,if proton can improve their quality and can reach the same level as japanese car quality and with the same price,will you all buy it

i doubt no,cause most of you all still love you bloody japanese cars

and if you all say i'm out of topic,

i'm out of topic because of those bloody bashers out there

I driven 1.3 Proton 1993, Satria 1.3 1997 but then when i plan to upgrade further for my small business to 2.0 car, i have been just asking for a test drive but not successful for Perdana for 3 months. Worst, i have asked why Perdana is not fix with Air bag but indeed spending money on a sterling wheel as sport model. I assume that is because Proton is true until today, still do not think Malaysian that supported them as nationalist still think their lives are important. Eventually i bought a Hyundai Sonata till now. Just not to mentioned i sweared to myself not to buy a Proton after Satria given tremendous problem and the manufacturer told me that "You got no choice". For those who die heart Proton, if you hear that what will you react. Yet, i still trying to give a chance to Proton because me too is a nationalist until i just cannot take it anymore.

Finally, i just do not understand that why we still have Malaysian till today that only think recall must associate with death. The comment of when all people bash Proton for any recall news is because you also must understand many people did either support or no choice to support Proton. They have the rights to voice out. Recall is a good thing, only those do not understand as it will give long term branding for customers to trust your brand.

Finally, to be honest, when i saw Proton Exora, my tears almost out. As a nationalist, i do think finally they did something right. A real good concept and good car. It is not Proton, is the people and the mentality. And it is ours Malaysian.

Note that the Honda Jazz/Fit/City recalls are regarding with its power windows.

====================

Oliver, one is a life and death matter. People get injured and can sue Honda's pants off especially if there is a loss of life. Spoilt power windows dont kill people.

Honda is only doing the recall AFTER people died ffs. You think they are being all goody-2-shoes?

Bottom line: BOTH Honda and Toyota only started recalling cars AFTER PEOPLE DIED from faulty parts. They have to do so now because they really risk getting sued for millions and millions if anyone gets injured from known faulty parts.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

STOP FALLING FOR PR PROPAGANDA YOU BADGE WORSHIPING IDI0TS!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I drive a car that's freaking affected by this recall and even I dont fall for this obvious corporate PR bullsh1t.

Brainless bashers

one side the T and H bipolar obsess

the others, malaysian carmaker enthusiast..

window, ABS, fog-lamp, back-lamp malfunction do couse death?

a brand conscious? typical malaysian thinking?

those big T and H does cause DEATH and still don't admit they were wrong.

haven u p1 and p2 BASHER, heard what the final word those pity family before they perished?

It's horrible…

only fools denied this incident.

January 31, 2010 @ 3:49 pm

————————————————-

Whts next?..Hyundai & Kia cars also gotta recall their fleets?

Btw, our own P1 quality has been below par with faulty, loose, sub-standard and more than a few hv caught fire all this years….anyone hear of any recalls?

Tiadaid said,

Seeing all the comments in here that are so pro-Toyota & pro-Honda, I can easily conclude that many Malaysians are so obsessed with badges that they’re willing to overlook bad aspects of that product. Pah, so low-class the mentality.

—————————————————————-

This is because PITY malaysian that are suffer for 20 years of crap, poor

quality product of P1, which are under protection means these are the only

choice for middle class people while others brands are overly priced or

priced ridiculously!!!!!!!!!!!!

MIND you, Malaysia are the second highest price of cars in the WORLD after

singapore (which is small country so i understand)

————————————

thats was plain lie…do u hav proof to support ur allegation bro…if no u r such penipu my friend

January 31, 2010 @ 8:36 pm

peYno are you dumb or just a buttholed idiot like a katak bawah tempurung. Let me remind you to brush up your language – EngRish if you mind.

Earlier, Honda Motor Co said it has recalled its Fit/Jazz and City and its 2nd generation City models manufactured in 2007 because of a faulty window switch. My criticism was why can’t Proton do the same? And it is not cheap to replace the Waja’s door handle or the Power window.

Proton knows this very well and chose not to recall as they wouldn’t want to waste their money and chose to have haters which eventually turned into basher and buys Peroduas than Protons.

—————–

For Oliver and Proton bashers alike, let me direct you to the Office of Defects & Recalls, the US agency in charge of vehicle recalls.

In their website, they stated the reasons for a recall. They are :-

a) When a motor vehicle or item of motor vehicle equipment (including tires) does not comply with a Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.

b) When there is a safety-related defect in the vehicle or equipment.

They also gave several examples of defects that are NOT considered safety-related, therefore not liable for a recall :-

Examples of defects NOT considered safety-related:

a) Air conditioners and radios that do not operate properly.

b) Ordinary wear of equipment that has to be inspected, maintained and replaced periodically. Such equipment includes shock absorbers, batteries, brake pads and shoes, and exhaust systems.

c) Nonstructural or body panel rust.

d) Quality of paint or cosmetic blemishes.

e) Excessive oil consumption.

Now for power windows, a recall would only happen if they

a) The power window regulator could actually break the glass

b) The wiring was damaged by any part of the car and would present a fire hazard

c) The operation of the window could result in injury

So far, haven't heard about Proton's power windows causing the glass to break, or present a fire hazard in the car, or result in injury other than injured pride.

You be the judge.

For those who want more info http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/recalls/recallproces…

If it is not for the national interest, Proton might not exist and we will have more choices when it comes to cars but this what you get from monopoly or protection. We have no choice but to buy Protons.

No doubt the newer Protons are a slight improvements but thank god I will never have to own one!
