While Driving it doesn't work like a Power Steering at all. Even my Alto and Santro which I used in 2007-2008 had much better Steering than this one. Around 6 Months back I Bought - Honda Amaze CVT Automatic Model - But after taking the Delivery pretty soon I was convinced that the Steering is very Stiff, Hard and Heavy. I have been to the Dealer twice regarding the same - They checked the Wheel Alignment and Tyre Pressure and Nothing Changed - They just say it is the Same for all Amaze But even if it is the same for All Amaze - Does this statement Fix the Issue? No If you google - Honda Amaze Steering Hard / Honda Amaze Steering Heavy you will find many Users facing the same issue. There are some YouTube videos too about this issue. But the Dealers are 1st Not agreeging that it is even an issue 2nd they just don't take it seriously and give a blank answer saying that it's the same with all other Amaze too. A week ago I drove my friend's i10 Car and the Steering on it was Ultra Amazing and Very smooth. I have driven many Cars but this one has a really Hard Steering. I have even tried calling Honda Customer Support Directly but they have just re-directed me to the Dealer who just doesn't do anything to resolve the issue. I seriously feel this is a Big issue with Honda Amaze and they should just Recall all of them that are having this Issue and Resolve this issue ASAP...just google the same and you will see many people writing about the same issue. Can someone here please Help me with this issue as to how should i go about resolving this issue? Any help regarding this issue will be very helpful to us all facing this issue. Thank you |

I have this same issue and gotten it checked from multiple places (official service center and otherwise) and it is being reported across the board. I recently purchased the S CVT variant and had some other observations too. I also noticed in the lack of lights on the gearbox which is apparently also an issue with the VX variant. In addition, the lock button and ORVM controls also dont have lights. Seems like a very basic thing to miss out from the company. All in all the driving is okay but feature wise a very basic car and would not recommend purchase for anybody looking to buy sedan as i feel other two options (Aura and Dzire) have much more to offer from a city driving perspective. One thing to appreciate is the stability at highways and high speeds where the car feels stuck to the road without hitting too hard on the bumps. |

One annoying feature though is the auto headlamps, seems to be too sensitive and switches on unnecessarily. The irritating part is I am unable to override it by turning it off. Does anyone know any workaround to turn it off or reduce its sensitivity. TIA |

Other Points • The world premiere of the Honda Amaze was at the 2018 Auto Expo (related thread). BHPian Jayakrishnan_v was the first to leak the variant details later in May. • Driver armrest isn't standard but is available as an official accessory. Check it out in BHPian A.G.'s car here. • The Amaze is based on a new (low cost??) platform that has been developed for the emerging markets. It will soon be used in future cars from the Thailand R&D center, including a crossover. • Will we see a Brio-hatchback version of this car? We should. The product is competent and a hatchback variant will do far better than the current Brio. Honda might name it differently though as brand 'Brio' is a flop. • The Amaze has upped its game and the market has rewarded it. Last two month's factory dispatches have been 9,789 and 9,130 units respectively. This is the best selling Honda till date. • Diesel CVT misses out on the paddle shifters & gets an "L" mode, while it's the other way around with the petrol CVT. We agree with the diesel not getting paddle shifters as it's anyway not a high-revving engine, but the petrol could definitely have used that "L" mode for climbing up tough inclines. • Honda has already initiated a recall for the heavy steering wheel. Check if your car is a part of this on the company website. • 35L fuel tank is retained; it's one of the smallest in the segment. • The doors auto-lock at 20 km/h as you move along. They also auto-unlock when you switch the car off (or engage "P" in the AT)! This is highly undesirable in theft-prone India. Makes us worried. • Pull (just) the driver's door handle from inside and all the doors will unlock automatically. • Don't like that fat chrome grille? Neither do we. BHPian Junky has a better-looking solution here. Looks so much classier. • Standard warranty of 3 years / unlimited km. Extended warranty for up to 5 years / unlimited km available (we always recommend it!). • BHPian PPS points out that Honda hasn’t even provided a joystick for ORVM adjustment in the base variants! Base variant owners are seriously treated like second-class citizens by manufacturers (it might be recollected that the Innova GX costing 17 big ones on the road doesn't even get an audio head-unit!). • Waiting periods for the diesel CVT have gone up to 10 weeks. Honda knows what the target market wants and they have delivered. • Horn is louder than you'd expect on the inside! • Thanks to BHPian Kautilya for sharing information on this Touchscreen Head-Unit Upgrade (for those buying lower variants). • We're intrigued by how the Amaze gets this deadly Diesel + CVT combination, but its more expensive siblings (especially the City) don't. Advantage Amaze, we say. • BHPian A.G. says "the keyfob cannot be locked inside the vehicle (including the trunk) – the doors won't lock / the trunk will open itself if it detects the key inside". • Disclaimer: Honda invited Team-BHP for the Amaze test-drive. They covered all the travel expenses for this driving event. |
