Perodua has issued a statement clarifying that the report titled “New Perodua Myvi May Be Recalled” published in The Malaysian Reserve today is not accurate.
The article, which appeared on the front page of the publication, reported that Perodua stopped production for three days, which the automaker said was inaccurate.
The automaker stated that there has been no recall on the Myvi or any of its other models. It said that there was a suspension in operations for a day at its plant on Monday, August 26, citing issues with certain aspects of the car that didn’t meet specified standards during the normal testing process.
Production resumed on Tuesday, August 27, after the issue was successfully rectified. The company also added that the Perodua manufacturing plant was on a scheduled shut down for the company’s ’20th Anniversary Gala Raya Celebrations’ over that weekend.

Sounds fishy. Perodua trying to cover their share market?
Btw, why The Malaysian Reserve would report such so call inaccurate news at first place? Where do they get the source from?
like all people said mainstream media not reliable n like to tipu….
the company that control TRM oso control bernamaTV…if u don trust bernama y should u trust TRM?
At first, I thought the news come from Utusan. :-) Sue them Perodua.

that’s old news.
Since they say “issues with certain aspects of the car that didn’t meet specified standards during the normal testing process”, and it was fixed, why not share with us what was the issue and what was the fix taken? No harm, if they are confident right? Berani kerana benar, takut kerana salah.
which company don stop or halt production if there is irregularity in production and then told all people bout their down time problem?
But then again, this is Perodua. They did have some issues with their cars, even the early batch Myvi which was incidentally recalled at the PDi stage, so the dealers fixed them prior to the delivery. I got a copy of the letter (which coincidently the dealer used the reverse of the paper to print the price list of the 1.5l.
Ini semua kerja red bean army
evidence pls.
You need evidence? Since when people need evidence….if give still not believe oso..
yeah… red bean army panas…
Lolz..perodua line really stop from crack issue of drive shaft during drum test..I myself went to the supplier to verified this isaue..other company such as volvo and proton also raise their concern if their part effected. .
so that mean p2 tell the truth bout quality issue n the plant stop for a day rite? u already confirmed it…
This issue was not new even my car (myvi lg best) had inspected for the brake issue. or maybe on the paint job i guess, but this not the safety issue.
No recall…? I’m not surprised… Just look at Alza, so problematic especially gearbox… Once they issue recall order just for this issue alone, Perodua will definitely stand a chance for one thing – TUTUP KEDAI INDEFINITELY…!!! No way they can survive a major recall a la Toyota magnitude…
lol..they not even produce as many car at toyota magnitude
All aspects of Myvi actually didn’t meet required standards.
most of our local supply vendors to car manufacturing companies do not actually meet the required standards they’re supposed to.
notice the difference in build quality of local assembled cars & CBU?
ya my supplier who buy a korean car only trust CBU unit. He say he will no put any risk/trust on CKD unit.
BTW i do heard abt Myvi steering issue during slow driving. Not sure how many effected

I always wonder about this, as we all know….the Myvi is exported to Indonesia as a Daihatsu Sirion.No recall have been done here, kan?
Myvi ESP recalled la last year…
Haiyya, do ur study before commenting, makes u look stupid if make allegations.
There had been a “Preventive Measure Campaign” recall for the Myvi here in Malaysia, involving the same Electronic Power Steering (EPS) column issue addressed in the Indonesian Daihatsu Sirion recall.
We reported it back in January this year:

1.P2 wont let suspicious car to customer.thats better than another one who ‘buat bodo’ jer and claim’ biasa la kereta murah’ bila complaint at service centre.
2.Do we think other car maker announce dgn ‘jujur’ for their internal issues? please check Google for VW DSG gearbox,Toyota airbags issue and many more.Those cars are double triple price than P2 and also play silent game.
3.News portal is place for facts,rumours,advertisement and many more.dont simply think it is an encyclopedia or text book.
whatever…
Perodua still much better than Proton. After more than 10 years, the cars Proton are producing is still a piece of junk.
Wrong…! Perodua is heading down the old ways of Proton…
I agree on this. Same old tech and only facelifted model. They are as comfortable as Proton under Tengku Mahaleel’s era actually this 2-3 years.
It was recalled last year, u didnt remember ah?
my 1 old day Alza.. rear wiper stuck at the spoiler.. now have long scratch…hampeh
This one is an outstanding issue 3 years ago, and they still never learn… They fit in a MyVi rear wiper on the Alza… P2 oh P2…!
Go claim from P2 SC to repaint…
it is because their favorite practice: carry-over!
nevermind if it doesn’t fit, carry over!
then, will have high volume for the part contributing to low price.
Low price, then sell high price to customer.
Equal to bigger profit margin.
Bigger bonus for staffs and bigger profit for daihatsu japan.
p/s: do you know that daihatsu is hardly survive in Japan? Luckily, the are owned by Toyota, that’s why they can survive. Plus, ASEAN region is the biggest profit contributor for them.
test drive alza with 7 mid size adults.. so the very underpowered..
Go get a bus..it doesn’t matter if you want to carry more than seven fat guys or your whole kampung.
cheap car like plotong and pelodua always have problem.. better buy VIOS!!!
Never admit your car at anytime…always tells this is my wife car…then you are happy enough if your friend complaint about the car you’re driving !!
Ladies only know how to drive..but never knows what she drives !! Jumping Q like DOGS…parking flaw, honking , road hogging …
P2 is lucky though their market share is lady driver !! as well as Vios…ladies car
Still make money..
My Myvi 1.3 2008 has gearbox problem. Their technical staff from HQ have test drove it in Nov 2013 and confirm verbally the gearbox has some problem. Still no news from them till today. Service center in Puchong Jaya says says they can’t assist even though I have been maintaining the car service with them since day 1. They ask me to call direct to HQ without even giving me a contact number and person to look for in HQ. The manager at the center lacks knowledge about cars. She is more suited for office admin job. Lousy after sales service. My car RPM with stick at 3700 at 3rd gear even though I try to drag the gear to overtake before changing to 4th gear. I have been complaining about this since 2008. DON’T BUY PERODUA.
