    Perodua conducts targeted Myvi fuel-pump service campaign

    Corrective action

    Perodua contacted owners of affected 2018–2019 Myvi vehicles through letters and during regular servicing, and replaced affected fuel pumps. Perodua said vehicles manufactured from October 2019 onward were not affected; the company described the action as a special service campaign rather than a safety recall.

    Stated objective. Perodua said its targeted, staged customer contact was intended to avoid service-centre overcrowding, minimise waiting time and ensure the campaign's success.

    Company response

    • Remediation — Perodua

      In total, 40% of affected Myvis have had their fuel pumps replaced to date.

    • So, the Myvi has the same weak component, and Perodua recently started sending out letters to owners of affected units.
    • The move to only issue letters to owners is also in line with the company’s own standard operating procedures, which classifies this fuel pump issue as a special service campaign rather than a safety recall
