<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2023/05/sambung-bayar-deal-is-legally-invalid-kpdn" target="_blank" style="">Sambung bayar schemes, where a car is sold before the bank loan is fully paid</a>, continue to pose serious legal and financial risks for Malaysians, authorities warn.
The latest incident occurred in Kedah, when a Toyota Camry Hybrid was confiscated by the Road Transport Department (JPJ) during an Ops Luxury operation at Kilometer 1, Jalan Sungai Ular–Taman Bestari, Kulim. Officers found the vehicle operating without valid road tax or insurance, and issued a P22 summons along with a confiscation notice <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/10/loke-pay-early-pay-less-no-more-special-summons-discounts" target="_blank">under Section 64(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987</a>. The car was taken to JPJ’s Kulim depot for further action, according to a post on the state JPJ Facebook page.

JPJ stressed that vehicle owners remain responsible for ensuring road tax and insurance are valid, even if someone else is using the car under a sambung bayar arrangement.

“This type of deal is illegal and carries significant risks for both parties,” it says.Sambung bayar schemes work by having a buyer pay a deposit and continue monthly instalments on a vehicle still legally owned by the seller and the bank. While it may seem attractive for both sides, the practice is considered fraudulent under the Hire Purchase Act 1967. Offenders can face fines of up to RM30,000 and/or three years’ imprisonment.Legal experts also note that contracts for sambung bayar arrangements are unenforceable under the Contracts Act 1950. This means if a buyer stops paying or disappears, the seller is still liable for the loan, road tax, summons, and insurance.  <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21675/16889106/41937868_1116185395211685_1354638019507781632_n.jpg" data-media-id="16889106" alt="41937868_1116185395211685_1354638019507781632_n.jpg" style="width: 100%;"> 

Buyers are not legally protected, and ownership of the vehicle remains with the original owner until the hire-purchase loan is fully paid. Authorities also warn of additional dangers, including cloned vehicles, tampered mileage, and unverified cars, which could result in confiscation or fines under the Road Transport Act 1987.“Always complete the ownership transfer to avoid legal, financial, and insurance issues,” authorities advise.

A Toyota Camry Hybrid was recently confiscated by JPJ in Kedah for being part of a sambung bayar scheme with no valid road tax or insurance.

Improving the speed and reliability of <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2026/02/traffic-nightmare-hits-klang-valley-economy-feels-the-burn" target="_blank" style="">Malaysia’s existing public transport system should be the immediate priority in tackling congestion</a>, rather than introducing measures to curb vehicle ownership, transport experts say.
They were responding to suggestions that limiting car ownership could help address worsening traffic congestion. However, <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2026/02/west-coast-expressway-expects-35-traffic-surge-for-cny" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Transport Minister Anthony Loke</a> dismissed the idea, describing it as a sensitive issue.Loke said traffic congestion has become a recurring pattern, particularly ahead of festive periods due to company dinners, shopping activities, and early interstate travel. He also pointed to structural factors, including the rapid rise in vehicle ownership.According to New Straits Times (NST),<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2026/02/malaysia-tables-rts-link-bill-2026-to-enable-joint-ciq-at-jbsingapore-stations" target="_blank" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; white-space-collapse: preserve;"> transport policy expert Wan Agyl Wan Hassan</a> said Malaysia’s transport ecosystem has historically encouraged car ownership through long loan tenures, fuel subsidies, which have only recently been rationalised, and relatively low urban parking costs.
<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21669/16888531/DSC_2528-(4).jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16888531" alt="DSC_2528-(4).jpg"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;">


“Transport outcomes reflect economic signals. If ownership is affordable while congestion costs are largely externalised, people will naturally buy more cars,” he told NST.Wan Agyl said the recent diesel subsidy rationalisation in 2024 and reforms to RON95 pricing indicate a gradual policy recalibration.“The key is not restricting ownership abruptly, but aligning cost signals gradually,” he added.With ownership restrictions unlikely, he stressed that short-term congestion management should focus on strengthening the performance of existing public transport services.Among the immediate measures proposed are stricter enforcement of dedicated bus lanes during peak hours, increasing service frequency on high-demand routes such as MRT2 (Putrajaya Line), KTM services and major trunk corridors, as well as encouraging staggered reporting hours for government-linked companies and large office clusters in Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, and Cyberjaya.Despite significant rail investments, Malaysia’s public transport modal share remains between 20 and 25 per cent, below the 40 per cent target.“The issue is not a lack of infrastructure; it is behavioral economics and convenience,” Wan Agyl further noted.&nbsp;He also highlighted the importance of improving first- and last-mile connectivity through better sidewalks, shaded walkways, safe crossings, and more reliable feeder bus services. Feeder buses, he said, should be given peak-hour priority where road conditions allow.
Parking reform near transit stations, particularly reducing minimum parking requirements within a 500 to 800 metre radius could also gradually influence commuter behaviour, he added.On congestion charges, Wan Agyl noted that global cities such as Singapore and London implemented pricing mechanisms only after establishing robust public transport alternatives.“In Malaysia, the network is still being strengthened,” he said, citing the yet-to-be-operational MRT3, delays to LRT3, and inconsistent feeder reliability.Meanwhile, Road Safety Council of Malaysia executive council member Datuk Suret Singh called for a strategic action plan to ensure 40 per cent of trips in Greater Klang Valley are made via public transport by 2030 under the Transport Masterplan.

He said improving first- and last-mile connectivity and ensuring reliable service frequency are crucial to encouraging commuters to shift away from private vehicles. Suret also suggested introducing congestion charges during peak hours and installing digital displays at bus stops to provide real-time arrival information.Experts maintain that without faster, more predictable, and convenient public transport, efforts to manage congestion through ownership limits or pricing measures are unlikely to succeed.

Experts say improving speed, reliability and first-mile connectivity must come before any move to limit car ownership or introduce congestion charges.

The Luxury Series offers top-level heat rejection at a price that’s friendlier on the wallet, typically RM800–2,000. Users appreciate the strong protection and durability, though professional installation is recommended for the best results. WHICH CAR TINT IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

That said, there are no official Tesla service centres in Sarawak, at least for now.The same can be said for its charging network, where neither its Superchargers nor Destination Chargers are available in the entire East Malaysian region. The company did say that as of early 2026, it operates 18 Supercharging stations with 76 Superchargers and 17 Destination Charging stations with 79 Destination Chargers.<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21653/16886835/conversions/TeslaMalaysia-EastMalaysia-VehicleDelivery-1-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16886835" alt="TeslaMalaysia-EastMalaysia-VehicleDelivery-1.jpg"> The expansion comes timely as Tesla Malaysia recently renewed its aggressive campaign in Malaysia, having <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2026/01/tesla-stuns-market-no-price-hike-for-2026" target="_blank">retained the prices for their fully-imported (CBU) EVs for 2026</a> despite the CBU EV tax exemption ending last year.<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/21653/16886836/conversions/Tesla-Model3-Standard-US-1-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16886836" alt="Tesla-Model3-Standard-US-1.jpg"> Last month, the company took the local EV market by storm as it introduced the new entry-level variants of its EVs, the <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2026/01/tesla-adds-model-3-standard-and-model-y-lr-rwd-price-war-coming" target="_blank">Tesla Model Y Premium RWD and Tesla Model 3 Standard RWD</a>.
