By pushing the green envelope in the automotive industry, the new Body and Paint Centre uses an eco-friendly waterborne paint. Water is the main component in the formulation of this revolutionary green paint. Without harmful solvent, this natural composition reduces pungent odours and detrimental compounds. Staying aligned to Honda’s fundamental belief in quality, the unique anti-setting technology of the waterborne paint also provides better colour accuracy compared to solvent-based paints. The eco-friendly facility reduces toxic fumes and fire hazard with its waterborne formulation, hence improving the safety, comfort and health of the associates.

Honda Malaysia is targeting to have a total of 90 dealers by 2015. Since its establishment, Honda Malaysia has been working closely with its dealers to improve their services to provide a complete package of service and convenience to customers nationwide. To date, there are a total of 70 Honda Dealers in Malaysia, of which 4 are 1S Centres, 56 operate as Honda 3S Centres while 10 are 4S Centres.

Honda Malaysia believes that a life-long customer relationship is an essential basis for its business. Keeping true to this, Honda strives to implement improved policies of prioritizing customer satisfaction and ownership experiences by providing the best products and services to them.

One such example is the recent flood that hit Kuantan and many Honda customers were badly affected by the flood and their vehicles were damaged. As a company that has experienced natural disaster previously, Honda immediately responded and provided assistance and convenience to their customers. Besides the “Honda Back-On-Track” relief campaign which provided Honda customers a discount on parts that were damaged, the new Honda 4S Centre will also be able to expedite the repairs and shorten the waiting period.

To make an appointment or to find out more about the services and facilities, customers can contact Macinda Auto Body and Paint Centre at 09-5688 0000 or log on to www.honda.com.my for more information.
