Why do Honda City owners experience issues with exterior plastic parts, such as side mirrors and trims?

The side mirrors, door handles, and plastic trims often become loose o r break easily. Is this due to poor material quality o r Pakistan’s rough climate?

Many Honda City owners report that exterior plastic parts, like side mirrors, door handles, and trims, tend to loosen o r break easily. This issue is often linked to the use of lower-quality plastics in the locally assembled models. The harsh Pakistani climate, which includes extreme heat, dust, and humidity, can also affect these plastic parts over time, leading to cracks, fading, o r warping. Compared to competitors like the Toyota Yaris, the Honda City’s plastic components may not hold up as well under stress o r weather exposure.
