Product Details

KYB Excel-G struts are built on the same OE assembly lines used for original equipment supply and are calibrated to return the vehicle to its intended performance, not alter it. For the Honda HR-V, part number 3340142 supports consistent suspension control, which is important for braking stability, lane change response, and electronic safety systems that rely on proper suspension behavior. This part cross-references Honda 51611T7WA01 and 51611T7WA72 for the same application.

What This Strut Helps Address

• Excessive bouncing or poor damping at the front right corner
• Loose steering feel or delayed response during lane changes
• Uneven tire contact caused by worn suspension control
• Reduced braking stability from degraded strut performance
• Noise or handling changes associated with worn OE strut replacement needs
