2022 HONDA CIVIC Steering Problems

My steering has a very bad clunk, i have been told my honda and other technician that rack and pinion is internally damaged. I waited for the recall and when i went in for my recall honda only added grease which stopped my steering to stick but the damage has been done, because for almost 2 years i drove the car with sticky steering wheel and i believe bec8of not enough grease in the rack it has damage the steering rack and im out of warranty like my other like me.

On Sunday, December 14, 2025, I was driving a 2022 Honda Civic Sport with my wife in the passenger seat when the vehicle’s driver-assist/steering system unexpectedly intervened and caused the vehicle to veer off the roadway and down a steep embankment (approximately 40–50 feet) without driver input. I attempted to correct the vehicle, but the vehicle failed to respond as expected. There was no intentional steering command to leave the roadway. The vehicle appeared to steer itself, resulting in a crash. Both occupants sustained injuries. I suffered a neck/collarbone injury and a concussion. My wife suffered a concussion, a large laceration to her outer right calf, and bruising. Medical treatment was required and was sought at urgent care. After the incident, warning indicators were present on the dashboard. I later became aware that this model year has known complaints and recalls related to steering, lane-assist, or driver-assist system malfunctions. These issues were not disclosed at the time the vehicle was purchased used from a dealership. This appears to be a serious safety defect that poses a risk of injury or death to drivers and passengers. The vehicle is currently unsafe to operate.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that the steering wheel felt sticky while driving and making turns. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the recall repair of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V744000(Steering) was performed; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where the recall repair was performed for a second time; however, the failure had worsened. The dealer was notified and recommended the steering rack replacement based on past experiences. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but declined to cover the steering rack replacement because it was not covered by the recall. The contact stated that the recall remedy had failed to correct the steering failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

After intermittently experiencing sticking of my steering wheel and creaking/grinding when turning the wheel, in April 2024 my vehicle’s rack & pinion recall was closed at Northside Honda (28,676 miles). In May 2024, I was provided a free oil change at the same dealership. I wasn’t informed of any failed recommendations or provided a copy of the multipoint inspection (29,328 miles). The sticky steering continued to be intermittent and I was unable to replicate it, specifically as cooler weather began. In February 2025, my vehicle’s steering gearbox recall was closed and corrective action was performed at Hill Country Honda due to my sticky steering noticeably occurring at highway speeds, making it difficult to return to center, specifically during a drive home from work that required significant effort to stay in my lane (38,957 miles). In October 2025, I scheduled another inspection, as the sticky steering had noticeably returned once more at highway speeds. It was then diagnosed by Hill Country Honda’s technician to be an internal failure of the gearbox with a recommendation of electric steering gearbox replacement (51,073 miles). After numerous attempts to inform Honda Corporate of my recent finding (fail recommendation “incorrectly assembled steering rack”) which Northside Honda never mentioned to me in 2024, neither Honda Corporate nor the dealership will take accountability. I’ve also noted that no comments were listed in the rack and pinion recall to indicate a concern/complaint, despite my description stated above. The dealership is continuing to state my car was not included in the recall though listed on my oil change visit after the recall was closed and they won’t cover 100% replacement regardless of this being incomplete warranty work from 2024. A new investigation NEEDS to be opened on this steering recall. Honda Corporate’s corrective action has not helped numerous people from what I’ve researched even with the replacement of a steering rack.

When driving the vehicle the park brake abs and steering control lights come on the vehicle intermittently when driving the vehicle

While driving on a regular basis steering wheel is sticking. Have to jerk the wheel to get it unstuck. It is scary when having to jerk wheel and not lose control when it unsticks. Took it to dealership advised needs new steering rack for almost $4000.

The vehicles electrical power steering , gearbox worm wheel and improperly set work gear spring caused a car accident where me and my daughter where thankfully only left with bruises and a concussion. Shortly after my accident a recall was sent out for the steering wheel upon further inspection it was determined the cause of the accident where it was replaced and I had to cover damages done to the car out of pocket. Dealership did not disclose any malfunctions.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? My steering rack is damaged and needs replacement (confirmed by Honda Dealership). This causes the steering wheel to get stuck into place (mainly left side). To dislodge it you need to jerk it to the other side which causes the vehicle to become unstable. I first noticed this problem on March 20, 2025. I ignored it at first, but the problem got worse with time until last week my steering wheel locked into place and sent me into the left lane. Luckily there were no cars on the road, as this would have caused a major accident. This issue is life threatening to both myself and other drivers on the road. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Yes Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, attached scan below. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes, by Honda Dealership Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No, no warnings, the problem just began. This problem was documented in NHTSA campaign #23V704000.

I took my vehicle to the dealer after receiving the first recall notice. They inspected it and informed me that my car was not part of the recall, so they returned it to me. However, I continued to receive recall letters and communications from attorneys regarding the issue. According to the dealer, my car was in good condition. Despite this, I recently noticed unusual movement in the steering wheel, which ultimately caused me to crash into a concrete pole.

Sticky Steering & Fluctuating Steering Torque. Car loses control due to this steering problem. There was a recall for this problem (SJS 2022-25 Civic EPS Grbx Greasing Saf Rec). Dealer repaired the recall but the issue came after short period of time. So the the repair was not done properly.

There are 2 recalls on this car. A gearbox and power steering rack, the dealer has not replaced either one of them. They greased the power steering rack, and that's it. When steering to the right or left, there's a very large grinding sound and they are stating that it did not come from a power steering rack, faulty, they didn't even check the power steering rack or the gearbox, all they did was grease the power steering rack. I want this remedied, my daughter drives this car and there's something going on with the power steering rack, and it is starting to affect other issues in the car, tie rods, bearings etc and that's not fair. The manufacturer should be replacing these items. Steering components are a huge safety issue in this car and the manufacturer at the dealership will not replace these items.

I BOUGHT MY CAR IN SEPT 2024 THROUGH CARVANA RIGHT AWAY I NOTICED THE STEERING WAS STICKY SO I BROUGHT IT TO A DEALERSHIP IN JAN 2025 AND WHEN I TOLD HIM THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG W/ MY STEERING THAT IT WOULD KIND OF STICK WHEN TURNING HE SAID IT WAS A RECALL AND THEY WOULD FIX IT FOR FREE SO THEY 'FIXED' IT AND AFTER I PICKED IT UP IT WAS STILL DOING IT, WELL NOW I BRING IT BACK AND THEY TELL ME I NEED A NEW STEERING RACK, ON A 2022 HONDA CIVIC SPORT, ARE YOU SERIOUS? AND THAT IT WILL COST $3700.00. SO THE DEALERSHIP DID CONFIRM I NEED A NEW STEERING RACK, THE STEERING ALWAYS STUCK SINCE I BOUGHT IT I DIDNT NOTICE IT WHEN I FIRST DROVE IT BECAUSE IT STARTS AFTER THE CAR IS WARMED UP LIKE THE FIRST 10 OR 15 MILES ITS OK THEN IT STARTS STICKING. I HAD JUST READ ON A SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM THAT QUITE A FEW PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY FILED A COMPLAINT W/NHTSA AND YOU GUYS WERE DOING AN INVESTIGATION SO I THOUGHT I WOULD FILE A COMPLAINT AS WELL

Found out the my car has a recall last december 2024. I drove to my dealership and told them about it. they said they dont have available parts for the recall in my car and the service advisor I talked to was told me that they have the parts for the recall but they prioritize the newer car so that they can sell it. then I called the manufacturer and let them know what the dealership was told me. 2 days later the manufacturer called me and said that they contacted my dealership and letting me know that they were be able to fix my car about the safety recall. but after I drove my car to my dealership and got it fixed and its all good as they said, but when I drove my car nothing change and its gets more difficult to control the steering wheel until now. most drivers thinks I'm drunk and keep their distance away from my car. then I brought my car back to the dealership and told them about it and they said they already done the repaired and got it fix but the repaired seems unsuccessful.

When driving at any speed above 30mph the steering wheel sticks. This is quite scary and has cause some very close calls when driving down the busy highway. I have taken it to the dealership several times and they have yet to fix this dangerous issue.

The steering wheel has a difficult time making small adjustments. The adjustments feel like the steering wheel is stuck and requires additional effort to make small adjustments.

Steering wheel appears to stick in position until a large amount of force is applied often resulting in an overcorrection.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel was pulling to the left or the right independently. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V744000 (Steering); however, the recall repair failed to prevent the failure. Shortly after the recall repair was completed, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken back to the same local dealer however, the vehicle could not be repaired under the recall again, because the recall repair was a one-time free repair. The vehicle was taken to several local dealers to be diagnosed, and it was determined that the EPS steering rack needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

It’s sticking bad and clicking. Very dangerous feeling. Highway speeds I need to make strong corrections to unstick the steering wheel. It’s a constant fight to keep it in the lines.

risk of crash is expressed

I was in an accident on November 22, 2024 wherein my vehicle became difficult to control due to issues with steering. I was severely injured. I broke my left arm, had a right orbital floor fracture, and a severe concussion. I later learned my vehicle was under recall for issues related to a defect in the steering column of my vehicle. I was not able to get the vehicle repaired under the recall due to the accident ocurring prior to notice of the recall.

On [XXX] the steering system on my 2022 Honda Civic failed as I was exiting the the city's inner loop in downtown Rochester, NY. Simultaneously, the entire dash screen lit up. It was fortunately a momentary failure and I was able to avoid an accident. I had purchased the car 9 days before, on [XXX]. In conversation with the sales rep., I mentioned that the steering didn't feel quite right. He suggested that I just needed to become familiar with the newness of it. I accepted his explanation. I was paying for a Certified Pre-Owned Honda, and felt confident that the vehicle had been fully inspected for any steering issues. The day before the steering failure, I notified the same sales rep that the car's maintenance signal went on. He suggested it was indicating an oil change, which would have in itself been an issue since the car was not due for one. After notifying the sales rep and dealership manager of the steering failure, the manager arranged for delivery of a loaner car and had my vehicle returned to their service department. The following day, he relayed to me that the service tech did not find a problem and questioned if I could be mistaking the lane assist technology as a steering failure. I assured him that wasn't the case and, again, described the flash of light from the dash that accompanied the failure. By this time, I had discovered online the Honda recalls for steering failure including the 2022 Civic. I also read driver reports that described the lit-up dash. The manager claimed not to know of any recalls or problems but said he would pass the information on to the service tech. I asked if the service tech. would know if the previous owner had the car serviced for any recalls since I only had access to current recall status. I'm waiting to hear back from the manager.

We purchased our Honda in 2022. Within three months the lane departure system was failing. The wheel was jerky and at times difficult to correct. This occurred while staying in lane and not close to lines on the road. We took it in they identified the issue and replaced it. Within nine months it failed again. This time even worse. They identified it was the same issue. This was December of 2023. Our dealership advised it would be three months to get the necessary parts in. Three months passed. We called, part not in would be another three months. We called back December of 2024. Was advised Honda had canceled the part delivery. I assume due to recall. We would have never been notified had we not been persistent in calling. A letter or phone call from dealership of Honda would have been nice. The excuses were unacceptable. Our concerns were never addressed as the customer service in this issue was non-existing. Our vehicle is getting worse and still this part has not been replaced. Unexcusable. This car had 300 miles on it when purchased, brand new.

I have had extreme difficulty steering the car on a daily bases. Ive been involved in near accidents and the car is truly unsafe to drive. One of the dealerships i contacted which is gillman honda north in houston informed me that they do not provide loaner cars. I just need this issue fixed promptly. I have been having a steering issue with the car since march of 2024.

There is a loud grinding/ squealing noise whenever I press the break pedal. I went to have it check at Big O tires and the guy checked my breaks and tires and said they were at 100 percent however the sound is coming from a defeat somewhere with the break pedal and the stopping mechanism. He added grease to it to see if it would help but it has not. Also The Steering wheel recall that they just did has not fixed the steering wheel from sticking while driving and I am wondering if it is all connected to the issues I am having. I honestly feel like I have a been sold a defective vehicle as my door actuator stopped working as well as the blower motor for my AC works intermittently and we just don’t feel safe driving this car anymore when we purchased it brand new not even 2 years ago but they have told me it is no longer under warranty

● My steering rack has been recalled for a 2nd time after being replaced once and every dealership in the DFW metroplex are turning me away. ● I have no control over my steering this has been ongoing for roughly 1½ years now. ● yes multiple times. ● yes after the 1st recall and they said everything was in tip top shape and has now been recalled a 2nd time. ● yes only a few months after I purchased my vehicle in April of 2022.

I have a recall, and the dealers I have called do not have the parts. I was also told they are making sure to fix the recalls on vehicles on the lot first before making parts available to customers who already have a vehicle, I feel unsafe, this recall if not fixed could put me in danger.

Theres been a recall for my car But I never received any letter nothing about this.

My daughters car started having steering issues. We took the car to the Honda dealer we bought the car from for repair. Instead of addressing the recall they stated the steering issue wasn't a recall issue but when the car's vin number is pulling up a recall for steering. We took the vehicle to another Honda dealer for a second opinion and again they said the steering issue wasn't part of the recall. Neither dealer mentioned anything about repair the recall, they said the steering issue wasn't part of the recall. The second dealership stated "even if we wanted to fix the steering issue found we could because the parts aren't available for 4 to 6 months" then tried to sell us a new car. I have all this information in writing from both dealership. Both dealerships charged us a service fee for the diagnosis when we were just asking for the recall to be repaired. I filed a complaint with Honda an their investigation consisted of calling the dealership to ask what the diagnosis was, no actual investigation was ever conducted. Honda said they couldn't help us. The recall has never been addressed. They wanted us to pay $3000 or $4000 for the repairs, my daughter was the first owner of this vehicle. We find it to be suspicious that a brand new vehicle has steering issues after 2 years of ownership and coincidently Honda put out a recall for steering issues but it's not part of the recall. The diagnosis paperwork from the dealership we received specifically stated the exact same thing the recall stated on the Honda website. We need help.

The contact stated that she had scrapes to the driver's side front tire and front bumper, also on the driver's side, but was able to drive the vehicle. The contact had not taken the vehicle back to the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 61,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

The steering wheel will tighten while on the highway causing me to over correct or the car will jerk sometimes while turning as well.

The steering wheel starts to feel stuck when making minor adjustments in cool and cold weather around +30mph, a slight adjustment just gets a bit stuck and then causes my steering to be jumpy and janky

Steering wheel feels like it locks up and is very difficult to move intermittently. Safety risk due to inability to steer correctly results in inability to effectively control vehicle. Problem has not been reported to dealer however has been noted by others with same year model vehicles. No warning lamps, messages, or symptoms appear.

I got this car (2022 honda civic touring) as preowned a little over 2 months ago. It had 39k miles. I inspected the car and thought it looked perfect and so I got it. In getting it, i opted out on getting extended warranty for personal reason. However the car had 60 days dealer warranty. After several times driving it, i noticed that my arms get sore. I thought it was just the way it drives. I drove one of my friends car which is the same car same year and it just drives way smoother. Mine is really sticky. I have to really put effort into keeping the wheel straight. When i make slight turns, the wheel doesnt go back to going straight, it gets stuck, so i have to pull it again to go straight. I heard about the recall on this car about the steering. I brought it in to honda but they said that my car isnt affected by it and that my part was okay. Due to my schedule i was only able to bring it in until almost the dealer warranty expires. However, they said that the car was fine, that they didnt notice the issue ive been experiencing. They told me that it drove good and advised me to get an allignment done. By the time the allignment place was able to get me in, the warranty had already expired and so i was really hoping that the allignment would fix it. Unfortunately, it didnt not. My steering is still so stiff/sticky. I dont know what to do.

The steering wheel is sticking when I drive at high speeds like 40 mph+ it gets stuck for a second. Does not feel safe to keep driving like that. It has been doing this for a while now.

When driving the steering wheel is “sticking.” Seems to get stuck in certain positions.

2022 Honda Civic has developed a condition where the steering wheel has begun to catch when making slight adjustments from the neutral position of the steering wheel. It is becoming more prominent over the last week and I am concerned that it will take increasing force to overcome and causing an overreaction on the road when it overcomes the area where it catches.

Steering is uneven and unpredictable, sticky. I suspect this is from the gearbox issue identified by others. Steering wheel feels firm when turning slightly then quickly releases, causing the car to over steer. This is most noticeable when at highway speed, typically 70 mph on my work commute. This has been getting worse. First noticed at about 20,000 miles, around a year ago. Car now has 35,800 miles.

Car has been exhibiting sticky steering problem. Small adjustments require above average force to keep centered and the car ends up over compensating.

The steering is sticking when correcting in the lane. The car is at a dealership now getting checked out. It puts others and your self in danger due to over correcting causing you to swerve. It’s very scary. This is the second time this issue has happened. The first time it happened in December of 2023. It was repaired and retuned to me in January 2024. Everything was great until September 2024 that is when it started sticking again. It happens at hiway speeds in the beginning but after driving for about 30 mins it happens at 35 as well.

At highway speeds car steering gets stuck causing driver to correct steering, which causes car to bind. Extremely dangerous as in highway speeds can cause a hazard to driver as well as other drivers on the road.

Steering wheel feels like it sticks when driving on highway. Have to fight to keep it going straight. Having dealer check it out Wednesday 9/25/23. First appeared 8/20/23 and has gotten worse since then

About a year after I bought the car, I noticed that the steering wheel would slightly pull to the left. I, by the way, do not have the Lane Keeping Assistant on. Anyway, I went to a car repair shop, not the dealership, and they told me it was misaligned, so I got it aligned. However, the steering wheel kept doing the same thing. It pulls to the left ever so slightly and, at points, it gets stuck, so I have to constantly apply force in the opposite direction. It feels dangerous when driving on curved roads, specially at high speeds, because as I'm turning the wheel to one side, it sticks, so I have to constantly yank it in the opposite direction, and of course the car swerves a little bit. My car is available upon request. The manufacturer just told me that it was misaligned just like the people at the car shop I went to; however, I'm seeing more and more people suffering from the same problem, which is too much of a coincidence. There are no warning lamps, messages, or anything on display. And while the problem has not been confirmed or reproduced by the dealer, it's very noticeable when you drive the vehicle because it just seems like the wheels are not properly aligned. I have driven a misaligned car before, and the steering wheel never stuck like it does with this one.

Steering wheel will lock in place making it hard to move when driving and trying to stay within a lane. I have to use a bit of force and when I do move it, there is a clicking sound.

The steering wheel is sticking. I am having to overcorrect my car when driving. There are no warning lamps or messages. I bought this car 3 months ago and noticed the issue about 2 weeks ago. The car has had a general inspection but not inspected for this specific concern.

At speeds steering wheel tends to stick during micro adjustments or even big turns, making it super complicated to drive and a hige safety risk!! Makes driving super hard and stressful!

My 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback started making a noise while turning left or right. Car was taking to Honda of Owings Mills dealership for an inspection, where the diagnosis was my EPS Rack.

When driving on the highway and in the city the steering wheel intermittently becomes stuck, predominately veering towards the left and has to be jerked back to straighten the vehicle on the road. It had happened multiple times and will cause an accident because of the way the car veers back on the road. I have taken it to Honda dealership about 2 times regarding this issue and they do not drive it as specify to recreate the issue. The vehicle is available upon request, has been properly maintained and this issue persist, even before the date bélow of 9-4-24.

steering stuck causing an inability for vehicle to navigate a turn resulting in impact with large rocks on side of a winding road. Airbags were deployed and vehicle was a total loss as a result of the damages incurred. no other vehicles involved in incident.

I purchased a used Honda from a Toyota dealership in May of 2024. Shortly after, I began experiencing issues with steering, particularly at higher speeds. The steering wheel began sticking in place (when turning the wheel to the left) and became more difficult to turn, making it unsafe to drive. In order to keep the car within the lane, I often have to overcorrect and the car jerks. This is the result of a known issue with the power steering rack, which is part of an ongoing investigation and has directly caused several accidents. The issue has not been confirmed or inspected by a dealer or any other party, since I purchased it from a Toyota dealership and it is not under manufacturer warranty as it has higher mileage. I am considering all options before taking the car for a diagnostic, as I do not believe I should be responsible for the costs associated with a faulty, factory part installed by Honda. The parts are also currently on a backlog. The system does not indicate any issues with the vehicle. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

Had my power steering checked by Honda and they said it was fine. My steering wheel is extremely unsafe to the point where I am always almost getting in accidents. Now I am out of warranty and need this fixed. I have replaced all 4 tires rhllthat were chopped.The noise coming from the sticking wheel sounds like it is effecting the tires. something is electronically not correct and you can feel this as you turn the wheel, even slightly. Please help

When driving on the highway the steering wheel gets sticky and requires extra effort. It won't return to the center position. Yesterday I almost had an accident and went out of my lane because I was trying to turn right and it took extra effort. The Civic has big safety problem.

Unknown. No incident has occurred to this point. Steering is sticking causing jerking motion to correct.

My car was purchased used with 79k miles and the longer the car is running, the stiffer the steering wheel becomes. Any small moments are stiff and make the car jerk to much and it causes me to have to fight to keep the car in a straight line while driving. Lane keeping assistance is also driving way too close to one side since the steering wheel causes the car to struggle to make any small changes. It gets close to cars that are next to me and can potentially cause an accident if I make one small move. They appeared for me on 8/15 and I purchased this car on 8/14. A steering wheel should be smooth and not so stiff. I have an appointment coming up on Monday for a diagnostic but I am afraid they’ll tell me it’s out of warranty or there is nothing wrong with it. Which is impossible since so many others like me are having the same issue. My car needs to become part of this recall to be able to afford to change the steering shell rack or fix what needs to be fixed for my safety and those around me.

The steering is hard to control and maintain lanes at highway speeds. It gets worse with more drive time and strains the hand while driving. The dealer has kept denying such a problem, but all my friends and family keep complaining about it too. Apart from me, no one is ready to drive this car on the highway due to the safety risk. It jerks when trying to maintain lanes, because trying to make slight adjustments sways it off from the lane. The problem is unbearable after long drives of over 4 hours or so.

As I attempted to turn my steering wheel to exit interstate I-90 East, the steering wheel became increasingly hard to control and I heard a popping noise in my front driver side tire. My vehicle slid into the curb, resulting in the front driver side fender damage, tire damage, axel damage, and 3 deployed airbags. The vehicle’s electric power steering failed and it is available for inspection. Both mine and my mom’s safety were at risk, however no injuries occurred. I have not received a recall notice at all and the vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the power steering issue before this occurred.

Rack and pinion/ Gear box repaired. Honda already had a recall on the gear box. According to dealership the part in question was not under recall warranty and not covered. I strongly feel this part should be included in recall. I feel either Honda or the dealership is trying to get around from repairing a faulty part when they already had a recall on another part for same issue.

Steering wheel is sticking at speed above 40mph. I constantly have to adjust steering to drive straight. I don’t feel safe driving this Civic on the highway.

When I'm driving at or above 40 miles an hour it becomes difficult to make small adjustments in the steering. I apply pressure to steering one way or the other and the wheel seems to momentarily catch then free itself and over correct.

Steering wheel sticks when turning around curves then jerks in opposite direction when corrected.

While driving at speeds in excess of 40 miles per hour, controlling the vehicle becomes increasingly difficult. No lights on the dash indicate any issues, but it is very apparent that something is not right. It feels as if lane keep assist constantly resists any steering inputs even when off. This particular vehicle has not been inspected by the dealership.

Steering is affected and tends to stick, yes It put everyone in the vehicle at risk due to steering locking up and sending us into wrong direction. The problem is not being addressed by dealers. No, no prior warning lamps or symbols

After hitting around 10,000 miles, my 2022 Honda Civic began having a noticeable steering issue. The wheel sticks and jerks while driving straight and requires constant corrections, made difficult by the steering quality. This issue is present during lower speeds (particularly stop and go traffic), but is particularly bad at higher speeds (50+ mph). A wheel alignment made the steering feel temporarily less jerky for about 24 hours, but the problem has returned and steering continues to be an issue.

At highway speeds (about 50-75+ mph), the car's steering becomes sticky and requires a moderately greater-than-normal amount of force to make small adjustments, often leading to slight over-corrections. It feels as though the power steering or related components are causing the steering to stiffen, but I am unsure. The vehicle or component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or anyone else yet. No warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms have appeared prior to experiencing this issue. I feel that this issue is putting my and my family's safety at risk. It causes unsafe driving conditions, especially during heavy traffic. On several occasions, the over-corrections have led to close encounters with other vehicles, nearly causing an accident.

Well when I got the car everything was good until after a few days later after taking car off the lot. I noticed a stiff feeling when turning the steering wheel. Then came time for maintenance. I brought it up to a honda person at the maintenance office when checking in for maintenance before but all I would get told is they will take a look at it. Once my maintenance was done they would just tell me they did not find anything wrong with the steering rack. I stopped taking my car there for maintenance ever since then since basically they did not want to do any repairs. I have not been home at the residential address that shows on my records for quite some time I am away from home, no form of communication. So I am just finding out that this car has a recall on an issue that I think it has to do with what I would bring up to honda maintenance office employees before.

About three weeks ago, I started noticing the steering becoming "sticky," taking more effort than usual to begin to turn the wheel, especially noticeable when making small steering corrections at higher speeds. And once the additional effort is applied, there is a slight jerk of the steering wheel in the direction the effort is being applied, almost feeling as if there were "notches" into which some steering component was falling, and that a bit of effort moves it from one notch into the next one. Even though the problem only began exhibiting a few weeks ago, it is noticeably worse today. It seems like some steering component is failing pretty quickly, and I am worried it could very soon become a safety issue, as the pressure required to move the wheel from one "notch" to the next has been growing.

The vehicle is not going straight on the freeway. Constantly veering to the left and have to adjust but sticks and have to jerk steering wheel to stay straight. Typically happens after driving for more than 10 miles. Going around left curves will veer to adjacent lanes or wall and have to quickly adjust. Have many times veered into other lanes while other vehicles are in the lane and being honked at. No warning lights, messages have appeared. Took it in to dealer to inspect and confirmed that the Electronic Power Steering rack not correctly working and needs to be replaced. This should not be happening on a 2 year old car. If by replacing the parts and the part is the issue, there is no sense in replacing every several years and will get very expensive for the consumer. Honda is waiting till warranty is expired so consumer have to bear the cost as the manufacturer should be aware of all the complaints while doing nothing to fix the issue people are having. This issue is not a safe driving condition as the vehicle veers to other lanes.

The electrical power steering system can sometimes make steering feel very sticky, which can be unsafe. This stickiness happens because the system may resist turning movements, making it hard to steer smoothly. On the highway, this can lead to jerky motions as you struggle to maintain control. This issue compromises safety by making steering unpredictable and difficult.

Sticky steering wheel at low and high speeds, particularly on turns. There’s now an accompanying clicking noise. I know loads of other people experiencing same issue. Definitely not safe on highways.

The steering sticks and pulls the car. It stops responding to correction after a while. It is going to cause an accident. It's uncontrollable at times.

2022 Honda Civic Sport sedan has a sticky steering wheel. The steering will stick when turning on the highway or when accelerating to highway speeds. When I need to correct it, the steering wheel will jerk back and swerve the car often into the other lane or off the road. This is incredibly dangerous and should not be happening to a car this new. After research online I see thousands of other people having the same issue.

Steering wheel is sticky and notchy at freeway speeds in a straight line It takes addition effort to turn wheel from the current position then it breaks free

When driving, especially at higher speeds the steering becomes sticky. It is hard to make minor adjustments and is incredibly unsafe as it at times snaps back when trying to turn in either direction.

My car which is less than 3 years old has faulty electronic power steering assembly. I took the car to Honda service and they confirmed that its faulty and needs replacement. I was quoted $3500 to fix it since im out of warranty. Contacted Honda Motor corporation and they refused to help me get this replaced. Steering get stuck on the highway speed while going around curves and makes it very difficult to break loose from the stuck position. I almost got into an accident while trying to break loose from the stuck position. My service representative confirmed that all 2022-2023 has this issue or will have this issue as the milage goes up. In my case i always had this issue but i thought it was the lane keep assist feature that is correcting itself. This vehicle needs to be recalled for the power steering.

Sticky steering at highway speeds. Have to manually correct steering causing unsafe control of vehicle.

My steering wheel will stick and I will have to lightly jerk it to get it right. Usually when I'm on the highway but at other times too. It seems to be getting worse. Last year, I told the Honda dealership where I purchased the car about tje problem but they saw nothing wrong but I can feel there is a problem. It is a safety issue because the wheel should not stick while Im driving and having to jerk it out of the stuck position is also unsafe. No warning lights come on and I do not use lane assist. I have my kids in the car so their safety is also at risk. Today is the most recent day it happened. 6/12/24

While driving high speeds and low speeds the steering wheel is becoming stiff and jerks as you try to turn a little or as your driving straight

Steering is sticking as you are driving down the road. It almost has the same sensation with pulling away from you as if you have lane assist on. We have turned lane assist off because it only makes the steering worse. I feel like it could cause an accident at some point because I can see where a driver may overcorrect especially with it happening going around a curve. This is my daughter's car. Apparently there is no recall on this specific problem at this time. My older daughter's 2023 Honda Civic has the same issue and is currently waiting on a backordered part so that it can be fixed under warranty.

The steering on the vehicle is "sticky" or "grabby". It is especially noticeable when trying to drive in a straight line at highway speeds. Car cannot be steered smoothly, but can only be steered with little jerks to the wheel. First noticed the problem after about 4,000 miles, and it has been an issue pretty consistently since then. Currently have about 31,000 miles on the vehicle. When reported to the dealer, they stated they had no reports of the issue and offered to run a diagnostic, which I declined at the time due to cost.

When you drive the Civic, sometimes the steering wheel gets stuck and you have to apply a good amount of force to “unstick” the wheel and it’s not very pleasant especially with passengers. It’s more dangerous on long highway roads where it curves because my car’s steering wheel gets locked even stronger and you have to be more aggressive to unlock and it’s very dangerous if you overpower the steering and hit something next to you.

22-24 Honda civic Steering rack recall I feel to have no control of my vehicle and that my life as well as others are put at risk. I took my car to Honda for the safety inspection for the active recall they falsely dismissed according to Honda corporate. Nothing has been inspected other than my safety inspection when the dealership passed my car. I scheduled an appointment for a diagnosis as corporate told me to do after speaking to them, but the dealer didn’t do the diagnosis on my vehicle they just drove it and said it’s driving normal but once we returned they ordered a whole new steering rack for my vehicle after the service department passed my vehicle, but then informed me they sent the steering rack back and that I needed to go to the dealership I purchased my car from which is 41 minutes away after I stated the driving conditions of my vehicle and the potential risk to myself as well as others on the roadway.”refusal of service” Lane departure signal this started 1/17/24 to be exact but has became more of a quite frequent issue since then.

When driving at highway speed, the steering wheel will not continuously go straight it gets stuck a little the to the left or right and I have to constantly adjust the feeling is like a sticky feeling, it has nothing to do with alignment it is the steering wheel, it is almost as if the lane control sensor is on but it is not I have turned it off, it causes me to overcompensate and overcorrect the steering, dealership of course says they cannot replicate problem. Also when at a complete stop there is a grinding sound in the steering column.

Honda dealership "test drove and verified steering sticking at times." Dealership stated "steering gearbox has internal issue and needs replacement at this time. EPS rack and pinion ordered, currently backorder with no ETA." Part #: 53620-T22-A08 This VIN is not covered under the "23V704000" recall, but the replacement is covered under the Honda 3/36 warranty.

Steering wheel gets sticky, at certain speeds, like a resistance feeling.

The steering on the 2022 civic will get stuck when in a continued turn or when trying to do small adjustments at highway speeds. It will at times cause over correction which will make you cross over into the next lane. It is unsafe to not be able to perform small steering adjustments at high speeds without jerking the wheel. It seems to be a steering rack issue. The vehicle is a certified preowned with no recalls or maintenance records of steering fixes. The dealer has not yet been contacted but is the next step. The problem has been noticed by multiple drivers. It feels as if you are fighting against the lane assist just to make a small adjustment in the center of a lane.

While driving, steering becomes sticky. Have to use a little more force to make small adjustments to turn the wheel. It had been happening for a while but I finally just took it into the dealership for a different recall check. Dealer told me it was not recalled part but the rack and pinion and it was not covered so I would have to pay out of pocket. I made claim through my insurance Mechanical Breakdown and they paid for repairs. After fixing, I found that this is a very common issue and don't feel like I should have been made to pay for this repair.

When traveling above 60MPH the steering become "Sticky". When attempting to change lanes at high speeds the steering wheel will start to lock up and extra force is needed to get the steering wheel to start turning, causing a jerking motion going into the turn.

The steering rack assembly or EPS is malfunctioning, which causes “sticky steering” at highway speeds. When making small turns for curves on highway, the steering wheel will stick which causes me to need to jerk the steering wheel to adjust. Seems very unsafe, especially in hazardous weather (ex. Rain, snow, etc).

Steering wheel is sticky at highway speeds. Dealership was not helpful. Car is unsafe to drive and should be recalled. Especially unsafe in rainy/snow weather conditions.

Steering becomes hard to make adjustments after about 15 min of driving, and makes a noticeable noise when turning

My car has been having sticky steering issue which is know tobthe dealership. When i first experienced it i was rold everything is working as normal at at that time it was as bad now after my warranty has expired it has worsen and very noticeable everytime i drive. Especially at high speed at curves my steering wheel get stuck and makes it very difficult to make adjustment. My warranty is expired and this is not something that happened to my car only, there are many many other driver in a same position. Honda knew about this issue and it should recall and fix this free of charge.

When driving, I feel like I have to fight the wheel to steer. It feels "sticky" and must constantly be corrected, particularly when driving on a straight road at interstate speeds. This has been confirmed by a dealer. I originally took it to the dealer because it began squeaking when hitting uneven spots in the road. This has been reproduced by the mechanics. The steering problem began shortly afterwards. I also took it in for the steering rack recall, but they did not replace it. They have replaced a strut and lubed the car, which helped temporarily, but the problems began again soon afterwards. The squeakiness began in late September followed by the steering problems around December or January. The steering seems worse when the weather is cold.

The steering is "sticky" especially at highway speeds when turning the wheel from center (straight) to any curve. This has become increasingly worse and causes the vehicle to "jerk". Yuba City Honda indicated they could not fix this issue as it is a known issue to Honda and there is no fix. This makes me fearful to drive my vehicle and worried it may cause an accident.

My car is undrivable and requires aggressive corrective action to keep in its lane. I am in imminent danger every time I drive this vehicle.

When driving, the steering wheels gets stuck and won't maneuver without jerking it back causing the driver to get steered in an unknown lane or direction. I took it to the dealership and they put a replacement steering column in acknowledging the issue; however, they one they put on has not been corrected from the issue it causes, so it's only a temporary fix if they haven't fixed what causes the issue in the first place.

The steering wheel sticks especially at highway speeds. It gets sticky and when I try and turn the wheels slightly, like on a freeway curve, it jolts loose and causes car to swerve. Recently this started happening at lower speeds as well. The steering wheel cracks when turned and sticks.

Sticky/notchy steering

Steering wheels seems to be getting stuck. Caused a collision while driving. Noticed that the issue is more prominent at higher speeds. Honda of America has declined repairing the issue.

I have a 2022 Honda Civic Sport with approximately 32,000 miles. Over the last few weeks, the steering has become “sticky”. Issue usually appears almost immediately driving on a straight road. The steering wheel becomes sluggish and additional effort is required on the driver to maintain lane position. This requires the driver to use additional force to maintain without slipping. No warning lights appear for this issue. Car functions otherwise as normal. Issue has been reported to Honda dealership that I purchased from. At high rate of speeds 50+ it takes additional force to maintain lane and at times does affect the safety of the vehicle. I am concerned this issue could become worse overtime. I am hoping issue will be resolved via Extended Warranty.

Every time I drive at highway speeds, my steering is noticeably “sticky.” It makes it difficult to make minor adjustments while on a curve. It has to “break free” in order to go back to straight. I took it into Honda for the recall and was told it wasn’t part of the recalled serial numbers and didn’t want to continue looking into it.

I bought my 2022 Honda Civic last week. I knew going into my purchase that there was comments about sticky steering, I didn't notice it much while test driving. I loved my 17 civic that I had to replace (unrelated) and fell in love with the look of the new civics so I went through with the purchase. A week after purchase I definitely notice sticky steering when making micro adjustments while driving above 50 mph. Specifically when turning the wheel over the 0 degree mark of the wheel, there is noticeable increased resistance. I notice it while turning at certain points as well. The wheel also does not self correct very well. Say you let go of the wheel to allow it to naturally straighten, it will get stuck at times. I'm not that large of a guy, but I do go to try to stay active so I am able to power through the sticky moments, but it is certainly annoying and unsafe at times. For an inexperienced driver or smaller individual it could definitely lead to accidents. I really hope there is a recall for this.

Steering wheel is sticky when driving on highway

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving or while the vehicle was parked, the steering wheel became abnormally stiff, and the vehicle was difficult to maneuver. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer however, the vehicle was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.

Mileage: 140,000

Steering system has developed a "sticky" (ratchet-like) feel. Steering is no longer smooth. Additional force is required to turn the steering wheel, which moves in small, jerky increments. Subtle, smooth steering changes are not possible, raising the risk that the vehicle will not travel in the intended direction. No accidents yet but feels less safe to drive. Car has not yet been taken into dealership or been inspected by others. It would be available for inspection upon request. No warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms. Problem is now pretty much continuous under most driving conditions.

When driving straight or turning the steering wheel just sticks (jams). It is constant and in cases of turning slightly on curves, it jams and just stays jammed for a while or until I snap it back in place. Crazy my car just jumps, very scary at times. I took it to the dealer for the steering rack recall 23V-704 I received and thought it would be repaired, but the dealer told me that my steering wheel issue was not part of the recall, it was something else.

I got my recall done already, however, the problem is getting worst after 2 weeks of regular driving. The steering will suddenly gets hard/stiff when driving. It makes it hard to turn and it's dangerous when driving on freeway. I almost got into an accident on the freeway because the car in the front change lane last minute without signalling, and at the time my stiff steering acting up and cause the delay of turning.

The steering has become "sticky." I have roughly 33000 miles on the car and it started within the last couple of weeks. It occurs every time I drive. I plan on calling the dealer today to report it. It is definitely a safety hazard.

Steering wheel sticks and jerks when being corrected. It makes it impossible to make micro adjustments or steer smoothly while driving. Feels very unsafe when taking curves and the wheel remains stiff.

Steering wheel is sticking at speed of 45mph or above. Terrified to drive this car. Was unable to steer away from a deer running into the road out of fear of over correction and hit the deer.

I'm encountering a sticky sensation in the steering wheel, accompanied by clunking noises when I turn it. This poses a significant safety concern, particularly during highway driving, as it impairs my ability to maintain smooth control of the vehicle. The issue persists even when driving off the highway.

Sticky steering at highway speeds causes it to be difficult to maintain lane.

Sticky steering

While driving I find it extremely difficult to maneuver my steering wheel. My steering wheel is tightening up or glued to a certain position. I was forced to unsafely wobble the steering wheel from right to left to untighten it from being locked up, which I have found to be the only solution. My steering wheel is making my car a hazard to the road and will eventually injure or kill me, or someone else. I took it to the dealer twice and they just angrily brushed my concerns away and said that they cannot duplicate it.

[UNKNOWN] I have noticed a clicking sound when turning my steering wheel, sticky steering, vibration in my steering wheel, terrible grinding sounds while driving, terrible steering control as well. I have a gash in my rim from having no steering control to avoid pot holes. It’s to the point I either hit the pothole or have a head on collision. I have read that customers are having the same issues after they have the recall taken care of. (HONDA NEEDS TO DO A FULL CIVIC RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED!!) it’s to the point where the dealerships and customer service are giving different information to the customers affected. I don’t know what to believe anymore. Do a full car recall before someone is killed, accident’s have already been reported with this recall. It’s not right for a valued customer to go through such. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE BEHIND THE WHEEL OF MY OWN CAR!!! It’s very Disturbing to imagine driving down the road and you get into a collision and take someone’s life if not your own due to a vehicle safety recall. That should be the last thing on someone’s mind when they get into their vehicle. All of my concerns, and issues listed above are for my 2022 civic. I had my vehicle looked at today, the dealerships look confused with this issue. They have to wait for a higher up to let them know proper information as to what’s needed, the vehicle needs an entire recall!! As I said I don’t feel safe and I’m not alone. This issue is not being corrected the proper way.

I'm experience a sticky steering to the left when driving past 40mph is been going for a few months and now is getting worst, now i can hear a clunk kind of sound when driving and the steering is starting to feel unsafe, please address this issue with a recall!!!

* Steering wheel binds while turning left, usually around 3 degrees. Breaks free with very light touch. * Steering wheel can kick to the left while returning to neutral from a right turn * Steering wheel was strongly kicked to the left about 6 degrees while going up hill. * Going up or downhill greatly increases the incident rate. The vehicle was taken in several times for this issue. It was taken in for a recall notice, and they said they checked the parts to find nothing wrong. I'm - very - certain they did nothing. My car has since been removed from the recall notice on Honda's website. They were only to recreate the issue once since then with zero resolution.

Over the past several months I noticed that the steering in my 2022 Civic would occasionally stick while driving at highway speeds. While turning through curves, the steering wheel felt like it would briefly lock into position and then would take some effort to turn it back on center. The problem has been getting progressively worse since then. The steering now sticks at lower speeds as well and makes noise while turning. No warning lights or error messages have ever come up. On March 30, 2024, I brought my Civic to a Honda dealership and the techs there confirmed the steering was faulty, consistent with Service Bulletin 23-037, and said my electric power steering gearbox would need to be replaced. Since the vehicle has 42,000 miles on it, the repair is no longer covered under the initial warranty. The dealership quoted me a price of just over $2,500 for the repair but said the part was on backorder and couldn't be completed at that time anyway. The service manager submitted a "goodwill request" to ask if Honda would cover the repair, but I have not heard back yet. I followed up with the dealership who said they haven't gotten a response from Honda yet either.

When driving at high way speeds my steering wheel has been sticking which makes minor corrections much more difficult while at speed. With having to put in more effort to steer this could lead to an overcorrection in the turn which is a huge safety concern. This is a different issue than the current recall of the faulty EPS repair part being faulty. This is the original part in the car that is having the issue with the EPS gearbox or motor.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel was difficult to maneuver without warning. As a result, it was difficult to maintain control of the vehicle. The contact eventually regained control and parked the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000.

Mileage: 44,000

My son had a problem with the steering wheel steak during he was starting a trip, this was very dangerous for him, the car currently have 11 alarm in the panel with relationship the direction and drive assistance. The vehicle not has been evaluated for any mechanic or dealer, so we live in Bagdad far away of dealers.

When driving, the steering wheel gets stuck and I have to apply some force to get it back to its straight position.

On 4/4/2024 i filed a complaint about my sticky steering. Today 4/15/2024 about 10 minutes into my drive my tpms light came on. 10 seconds later my car wobbled a bit but it kinda felt like my sticky wheel so i thought i was ok. About 10 seconds after the wobble it did it again only harder this time. The steering wheel got locked at the 10 position and made me smash into the concrete highway barrier.

I just bought a certified used 2022 Honda civic touring on 4/13/24 with 72,000 miles and experiencing a sticking steering wheel feeling that is most noticeable driving at high speed but also driving around the city. It gets worse the longer I drive in one session. The wheel sticks and then jerks when corrected. It feels extremely unsafe. I first noticed this issue driving home from the dealship. No warning lights or messages indicating anything was wrong. Im new to these newer vehicles so i thought I had some type of driving assist on so i googled and it seems that I am not the only person experiencing this SAFETY issue. I will be taking it into a Honda dealership to be looked at.

I have been experiencing sticky steering over the past 8 months and thought that getting the recall fixed would fix the issue but I still find my self applying a little extra force to remain center in a lane driving at 60mph +. When trying to stay centered and attempt to make corrections I often times over correct causing me to sway more then usual. Although I have had any accidents yet, I do feel there is a greater risk of one just from over correcting just to get the steering wheel to move. There arent any warning light on.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel was sticking and would remain stuck in a turning position without warning. The contact stated that excessive force was needed to regain control of the steering wheel. The vehicle had been taken to a dealer on several occasions where several steering repairs were performed under warranty; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact then received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering) however, the contact was later informed by the dealer that the recall was no longer listed under the VIN. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000.

Mileage: 25,000

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Steering system, it is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? While driving at highway speeds, the steering is sticking and requires effort/driver input to keep the car straight. While making correction, the steering seems to take additional force to get it to respond. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No

The steering often feels "sticky". The effect is most noticeable at highway speeds, where I need to make lots of small corrections to the steering, but I can also notice it on back roads. When I try to turn the steering wheel by a small amount, it won't turn, so I need to apply additional force to overcome the stiction. Once I apply enough force for the wheel to "break free," I end up overcorrecting, and I need to turn the steering wheel back in the other direction, at which point I encounter the same problem. This issue makes it difficult to maintain my lane while driving. This problem has not been confirmed by a dealer. I took the car to a dealership due to a recall on the power steering system, but they told me my vehicle was not affected and they didn't replace anything. I made another appointment to look into this issue and asked that a technician be available to I could demonstrate the problem. When I arrived, no one was available to look at the vehicle, and the service advisor told me I had to pay $175 before they would try to diagnose the problem, despite the fact that the vehicle is still under warranty. I haven't had the vehicle inspected by police or insurance representatives. However, I am happy to make it available for that purpose. There were no warning lights/messages that indicated a problem with the steering system.

sticky steering making it harder to make minor corrections on road

2022 Civic Sport with 28k miles but problem started just around 18k. While driving the steering wheel sticks and extra force is needed to change directions. When driving straight and it gets sticky i have to turn to the 11 or 1 position to get it unstuck constantly. Its worse on hard curves, correcting the wheel is very dangerous and i have been scared a few times im going to overcorrect and hit the rail. Dealership cleared me of the steering rack recall and when i asked "why is my wheel getting stuck then" the response was " you're lowered and have oversized wheels that could be it". My springs only drop 1.4" and wheels are 18x8.5 +30 offset so they do poke out a bit but this problem started about 2 months before my new wheels were put on.

unknown.. Steering feels sticky while at highway speeds. Normal Speeds feel fine but once you’re up to 55-70 Mph you have to force the steering wheel back to center after making a slight turn on the highway (lane assist is off).

We bought the car new and it currently has 22,000 miles on it. Throughout its lifetime, the steering has been "sticky" in that the driver is unable to keep a straight line or turn without the steering temporarily binding. This requires more force to be applied to the steering wheel and causes an overcorrection. It is unnerving and dangerous to the driver and to other cars. The local Honda dealer has been unhelpful in diagnosing or even admitting the problem. No warning lights indicate a problem.10

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at 56 MPH, the steering wheel independently shifted to the left as the contact lost control of the vehicle. Due to the failure, the contact swerved back and forth in an attempt to regain control of the vehicle; as a result, the contact hit several highway median divider poles. The air bags did not deploy during the failure. The contact sustained minor back and shoulder pain but did not seek medical attention. A police report was filed. Upon inspection of the vehicle, the contact discovered that the rear passenger side tire was damaged and had leaned inward toward the axle. Despite the failure, the contact managed to drive the vehicle home at a low rate of speed. The next day, the vehicle was towed to an independent body shop to repair the front-end damage to the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact discovered that the vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering). A dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 11,000.

Mileage: 11,000

Around 10 to 15 minutes of driving steering begins to stick. Takes extra effort to turn or do micro corrections while going in a straight line. Sticking steering is worse at higher speeds. When the steering does release it makes the car noticeably move to one side.

Steering is jumpy and sticks. When driving straight between 45 and 75 miles per hour. The car doesn’t drive in a straight line.

When driving above 50mph, the steering wheel becomes sticky. It is difficult to drive the vehicles at highway speeds. Forcing to do a big jerk on the steering wheel in order to keep the car within the lines.

The steering wheel keeps jerking and it feels like the car swerves whenever it wants to. With and without the lane assist. I have stopped using lane assist and it still has the same issue.

steering rack feels faulty, steering wheel feels hard to turn and has a clicking noise at all times. safety compromised as steering is hard to do quick, almost got hit multiple times because switching lanes is slow. mulitple dealers can not find a problem or any recall for this problem. no warning signs come up on the dashboard, vehicle is up to date on service, power steering was also confirmed to be okay.

Steering sticks, especially at highway speeds and driving slower after obtaining highway speeds. Sometimes sticking is worse than others and sometimes it can jerk the car around.

When driving on a straight section of highway, the steering gets "sticky" at top dead center requiring driver to turn past the straight ahead location of the steering wheel. The car then slightly moves in that direction and you have to turn past center the other way. You can feels the wheel binding/sticking at top dead center. At no time can you leave the steering set to track straight. It acts like there is something that keeps the steering wheel from staying at top dead center. The dealer did an alignment, but that did not help.

Steering wheel start sticking, hard to turn or maintain the vehicle straight while driving.

The steering wheel is "sticking" when making minor adjustments to keep car straight. This initially happened at highway speeds only. The longer you drive, the worse it gets. Almost every time a minor adjustment is made, it will stick. Also, it can happen when turning a corner when the steering wheel is not completely rotated around. The safety of myself and others seems to be at risk due to an overcorrection due to sticking. While the force to move the steering wheel is not great, it is by no means smooth. Also, the safety of myself and other seems to be at risk due to unknown possibilities of deterioration of steering rack or increase in frequency. The vehicle was inspected by the local Honda dealership and the issue was noticed by a service technician. The service technician diagnosed the problem as a steering rack issue and recommended replacing the steering rack. The local Honda dealership ordered the replacement part but now states it will not ship until September 2024 which is 9 months after ordering. The sticking of the steering wheel has gotten worse as it can now by felt at slower speeds (40-50 mph). No warning lamps or messages for this issue. The car is 1.5 years old with approximately 7,000 miles.

This Incident occurs daily and poses a SEVERE risk to not only myself but other vehicles on the road, with ADAS systems off the 11th gen civics seem to have a mind of its own. When traveling above 40 Mph on a long curvy road/highway or raining, the steering wheel becomes "Notchy" and will lock in place for moments at a time. The only way to gain control of the steering wheel is to apply extra force and once applied the steering wheel is released and causes the driver to overcorrect. I purchased my civic 2 months ago purely for its reliability and the safety ratings given by the NHSTA. Honda has initially released the service bulletin to address their faulty replacement racks stating "certain service part electric power steering (EPS) gearbox assemblies were not made to proper specification. " In reality this is a LIE they are trying to say the scope is less than 5% of their vehicles but the truth is that every single vehicle sold with this same rack has or will in the short future report this issue, some drivers think it is only "annoying" and some dealers are telling customers its "Normal" I am completely appalled that there has not been a Stop-sale issued for this as the main component of a car is the steering and if that is faulty than what else matters! they have managed to put the same rack in multiple vehicles in the last few years and you wont begin to experience the issue unless you drive (few 1,000MI on the car) longer than 45 minutes. Civic Type R's are less likely to experience this as that vehicle uses a different rack (Probably more $). Owners who have gotten a replacement eps system are finding the issue to reoccur after 12 months. This points to the fact that not only is this a manufacturing/Quality issue but a PURLEY FAILED Engineering design. I have an appt with a dealer but they will replace the rack with another faulty one, Honda needs to shut everything down and put the safety of their customers first before we all end up dead or kill someone.

My 2022 Civic Sport experienced the sticky steering problem. The Steering Rack and EPS motor were replaced by Honda. However, this should be documented as it was an unsafe situation. Starting at 20,000 miles I noticed some odd steering behavior. Above 42,000 miles the steering situation got increasingly worse. The steering wheel would get stuck at a position and take an unusual amount of force to get it to change. This would occur normally at speeds above 40mph. It was most noticeable when making a minor steering adjustment after not moving the wheel for a while. This occurred turning in both directions and when driving in a straight line or "locked in" a curve. It was worst at temperatures 35-55F and once the car was driven 20 minutes or more. After 20 minutes it would progressively get worse. It did not occur at low temperatures around 10-15F and the steering was noticeably stiffer at these temperatures. It also did not occur when constantly adjusting the wheel around turns. However, as soon as the wheel was held in a position it would start sticking again. The problem occurred with the lane keep assist and lane departure safety features turned off; it appears unrelated to those systems. The steering would also feel odd when pulling in or backing into parking spots. It felt like you could feel each notch in a gear when turning the wheel. I was able to overpower the steering wheel. However, I hate to think of what this could do to an inexperienced or distracted driver. They could fail to adjust the steering or panic and put in too much force and loose control. It could also delay a drivers reaction time. This is a safety issue. I feel a recall is needed since this issue can be hard to reproduce by the dealer. There were no warning lights or messages.

At freeway speeds the steering becomes very sticky and hard to correct. It locks in place and requires force to overcome the steering wheel.

While driving and turning the steering wheel away from the 12 o'clock position, the steering wheel (power steering) will not return by itself to the 12 o'clock position after completing the turn. There will also sometimes be a force needed to turn the steering wheel past the 1 o'clock or 11 o'clock position in situations where the turn is sharper but does not exceed the need to turn the steering wheel past the 3 o'clock position. The steering issue only occurs during cornering situations and more frequently on banked turns. The steering issue occurs in both steering directions in the same manner as described above. The steering issue occurs with Lane Keeping Assist turned off. Lane departure notice is active. No electronic messages or indications occur during the steering situation that would indicate Lane departure safety systems were activating. Vehicle has approximately 50k miles. The issue has been noticeable for approximately the past 10k miles. I have had no repairs performed by any dealership to date for any car related issues. Honda recommended maintenance schedule has been followed to date. I have been informed by a Honda Dealership that the serial number associated with my power steering rack is not currently covered under the Manufacturer Recall Number YFW or NHTSA Recall Number 23V-704.The vehicle has recently passed State Inspections without any abnormal wear on tires noticed by the same Honda Dealership that informed me of the issue with the power steering rack.

The steering wheel sticks about 70% of the time I drive the car. I have to use more pressure to make minor adjustments than normal. I'm guessing it's the steering rack or something similar. It takes my focus away from other things I should be paying attention to while driving. I need this fixed ASAP.

While driving (especially for a while) the steering wheel pulls left and then right on its own. It feels almost like it is sticking or jerking. I am literally not comfortable driving it without having both hands on the wheel. Because it has a mind of its own. It will try to jerk my wheel left and right without my assistance.

At speeds over 35mph steering wheel sticks to center and needs over corrected to unstick to turn the steering right or left, Very noticeable on highway. Happens almost daily.

Sticky steering causing over corrections to be made between the intervals of 11 to 1 on the steering wheel. this is very unsafe and needs to be fixed asap.

Really common issue of sticky steering on this car. Sometimes my steering wheel won’t wanna turn back straight. It seems like a very serious safety issue.

After driving in a straight line without steering input for 10-15 sec. it requires extra effort to make a minor adjustment. Makes you slightly over correct

Sticky steering wheel. At first it wasnt happening alot but but its getting very dangerous. While driving on the highway during a curve the steering gets stuck and sometime i habe to lightly rock the steering wheel to get it out of the stuck position. Almost everyone inknow has this issue with this civic. Im not sure why there's no recall on this.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, he became aware that the electronic power steering was not functioning properly, requiring increased effort to maneuver the vehicle. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering), but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 86,000.

Mileage: 86,000

When driving at higher speeds the car steering feels like it’s sticking or locking up slightly. It also makes a sound when turning.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at approximately 65 MPH and steering to follow a left curve in the highway, the steering became sticky and was almost unresponsive to turning the steering wheel. The contact stated that the steering wheel was jerking to the left and when the contact corrected by turning the steering wheel slightly to the right the steering wheel was jerking. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent at first but had become a recurring failure at various speeds. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, but it was not diagnosed and was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The contact had researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering). The failure mileage was approximately 59,000.

Mileage: 59,000

At some point in 2023 I took my car to Honda because all of the dashboard lights came on randomly. They told me there was an issue with the a sensor in the steering column and that they would fix it under warranty. Now several months later I’m noticing a sticky feeling when driving at highway speeds. The wheel needs a tad bit of force/jerk to make the slightest adjustment. I’ve had 2 other drivers drive my car that have reported the same issue. One driver said that they thought the car needed power steering fluid not knowing that it was electrical steering.

When driving at speeds above 30 MPH, I discovered the steering wheel sticks when trying to center car in lane. This issue is especially noticeable at highway speeds.It is non drivable for long distances (1+ hrs) due to constant over correction of the steering wheel by the driver. This discrepancy started at 39,000. and has been happening for the last 2k miles.

Steering was sticky and almost caused an accident. It has been evaluated by Honda dealership and was diagnosed with the steering rack needed to be replaced. This vehicle has been in no accidents, nor driven recklessly and is not driven on inappropriate roads. The issue started around the middle of February and car was evaluated around the 22nd of February. No warning lights or messages were present. The only reason the car was diagnosed was owner intuition.

Steering sticking very badly when going down the road doesn’t matter if im going slow or fast. I have to over correct the steering wheel and sometimes it pulls me from one lane to another.

Steering is sticky at speeds above 40mph. Noticeable when making slight adjustments while maintaining lane. It is so sticky at times that it creates an overcorrection. This occurs even in corners, not just straight lane paths. Dealership has inspected the vehicle 3+ times telling me they cannot recreate it.

I'm December of 2023 the steering started jerking left and right while driving. Honda also issued a recall related to steering in December of 2023. I took my car in for the recall and was advised the my car was safe to drive. The dealer advised that to resolve the jerky steering a new steering rig/box would need to be ordered. The issued has gotten persistently worse since December 2023 with no confirmed dates for the replacement part.

Experiencing steering issue associated with EPS Gearbox defect as found on Honda Service Bulletin 23-037, entitled 2022–23 Civic EPS Gearbox Replacement. Date for this bulletin is July 6, 2023. Symptom: Steering effort complaint while driving at moderate or highway speeds, with possible complaint of noise at slow speeds, and no MIL illuminated or DTC stored. Steering wheel is notchy and is very fatiguing at speeds over 40 mph.

The steering wheel in my car is sticking. This happens after about 20 minutes of highway or city driving. this happens especially when i turn to the left, or try to keep my car in the middle of the lane, it jerks back when I try to move it. I see other people have had this same issue on this model.

AMERICAN HONDA REFUSING TO ACCEPT that these vehicles they care more about profit than actual safety of customers and dealership even though my warranty expired they wont take in consideration to fix either sticky steering wheel situation which becomes dangerous driving not just on regular roads but worst on highways if you dont correct yolking or force steering wheel back in place you will get in bad accident its either from the steering rack itself or Sticky steering wheel that these new 2022-2023 or newer honda civics they are manufacturing at high rate that they dont care in inspecting it. They need to fix it. These corporations get away with alot and enough is enough they want money money money but not fix something they are aware about and push it upon customers.

Vehicle has "sticky / notchy" steering when driving above 40mph, issue worsens with higher speed. Any minor adjustment make to the steering just to stay in the lane, steering gets very tight and when extra force is applied to move steering wheel it then releases and causes overcorrection. Issue especially dangerous when going around a long sweeping turn or corner, steering will get so tight the steering wheel gets stuck, to the degree that you can let your hand off the steering wheel entirely and the wheel stays in the turned position on its own. Tightness progressively getting worse over time.

The steering wheel is “sticky” and has to be hand corrected at certain angles. Once you steer too far left or right, it gets stuck in that position

Steering switches from stiff to loose while driving causing the vehicle to jerk when that occurs. This occurs at all speeds. Honda Service says the issue is related to the EPS and that it must be replaced. This is an issue affecting many Civic owners that Honda is not taking responsibility to fix. This is a safety hazard.

Sticky steering wheel causes difficulty in steering. Car requires adjustment constantly to keep it straight and the steering wheel is hard to adjust. Took it to dealership and they say it isn’t part of the recall but it’s not smooth when turning.

Having to adjust the wheel to maintain a straight path while driving. - Steering resistance for minor adjustments while driving at highway speeds. - The wheel sticks, causing the driver to need more force than usual to turn When more force is applied to break the wheel free from its stick, the car may overcompensate in that direction - When turning, the wheel will maintain its position, not slide back to center, if hands are removed from the steering wheel

When traveling at highway speeds the steering is starting to feel "sticky". Making small adjustments to keep the car driving straight are starting to require more force leading to slight oversteering.

I recently purchased a 22' civic EX used less then a week ago and noticed the steering wheel acting almost as if its sticking/catching when driving 45-50mph+ and doesnt want to correct unless you pull/yank to get out of turn. Ive also noticed having to make many small corrections while driving even in a straight line like it wants to veer due to the constant jerkiness almost like an alignment issue but tighter. It is a safety concern especially with how hard it can be to correct; even worse on the interstate at higher rates of speed and more traffic. Issue seems to gradually get worse, the warmer the car is. Took car in to Music city Honda to be inspected, they test drove and noticed issue. Was unwilling to fix bc my car is just outside of warranty. Manufacturering errors/issue should be fixed free of charge!! Told me it would cost $3200 roughly to repair! The car was purchased from dealer with the issue! Called Honda Corporate to file complaint, and now filing here. This is really an unacceptable issue!

Steering is best described as “notchy” or “sticky,” it feels stiff. Minor wheel corrections on the highway cause the car to overcorrect and overcompensate steering. Small adjustments made while driving do not feel smooth.

The steering when driving above 25mph, the steering wheel seems to stick, having to always jerk the steering wheel slightly to get it to unstick

The steering mechanism of my vehicle exhibits noticeable resistance (stickiness), necessitating constant, minor adjustments to stay centered in my lane, particularly when traveling at speeds over 40 mph. This condition is a significant safety risk, as it could lead to excessive steering correction during emergency situations at highway speeds, which might cause a loss of control over the vehicle. Although I have reported this issue to the dealership and told them about the TSB 23-037 issued by honda, they have concluded that there is no recall with the vehicle and want to charge me a diagnostic fees and keep the vehicle with them for multiple days. The vehicle is in warranty. I contest their evaluation, believing that the problem has not been adequately addressed.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while attempting to maneuver the steering wheel, the contact stated that the steering wheel seemed stuck, and was hesitant to move in either direction. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed the steering failure was causing premature wear on the tires. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the EPS steering rack needed to be replaced. The contact was also informed that the steering gear needed to be replaced. The vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering). Still, it had only been scheduled for the remedy because the contact wanted to seek assistance with the additional repairs for the steering. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 25,000.

Mileage: 25,000

For several weeks, I have noticed while driving, the steering feels like it is sticking and catching. It feels as though the steering locks into place which causes an issue with trying to control the steering as well as issues with turning the wheel while driving the vehicle. This is a major safety concern. I took the vehicle to Buckeye Honda located at 2615 N Memorial Drive Lancaster, OH on [XXX] regarding my concerns. Keith Vanatter a technician at Buckeye Honda test drove my car and verified my concerns of a sticking steering wheel and recommended a replacement of the rack and pinion. A service advisor at Buckeye Honda named Jacob Lang informed me after the tech verified the issue with my vehicle that the rack and pinion needed to be replaced at a cost including parts and labor of $2798.57 because my vehicle is out of warranty since it has over 36,000 miles on it. I was highly upset over this and informed the service advisor that the car is a 2022 model and I purchased it brand new in 2022 and should not be having this kind of issue with the steering. I informed Mr. Lang that Honda should be responsible to fix the issue at no cost since there are open recalls and numerous reports which Mr. Lang verified of 2022 Honda Civic car owners having the same issue that mine is having and he advised that my car did not show a recall per the vin. Mr. Lang advised me to call Honda America and speak with them to see if they could do something about getting this fixed or meeting me half way on the cost, Honda America advised no since no recall information pertains to my vin.

Steering feels "notchy", especially at highway speeds. Steering wheel feels very on-center and requires extra effort to move it from the center position.

Not the sticky steering for sure and also fill I have the faulty steering rack even tho it’s not included in recall I can feel something running on the driver side floor while turning

Sticky steering

My steering wheel is very sticky. It gets stuck when i’m driving and trying to turn. It is a safety concern because sometimes it is requires an effort for me to use my steering wheel when driving. my steering wheel has been assessed by Honda and they mentioned that it Hass to be replaced. However, since my car is out of warranty, I would have to pay for it or a portion of it. This should not be happening and it is a safety concern. Honda should offer a recall regarding this issue because a lot of vehicles are having this experience with their steering wheel.

Steering wheel sticks while driving took it to Honda and they claim they test drove it for 12 miles and found nothing wrong with it. I took home the car and it’s still Doing what I took it in for. The steering either over steers or under steers (not sure if I’m explaining it correctly) kind of like when lane assist is on.. the fight it gives you without indicating of a lane change well it does that at all times even when it is not on

my steering wheel gets sticky at high speeds on turns and gets stuck, took it to dealer and they say it’s nothing to worry about but i almost hit a curve while turning on the freeway. and when i also reverse there’s a clicking sound everything and they don’t heard it. pleas fix this problem. i don’t feel safe in the vehicle anymore and it just sits in my garage now

The steering is sticky and have a hard time keeping in the middle of the lane without constant minor jerking. Very noticeable at high highway speeds above 40+ mph. This safety concern might cause over correcting in an emergency steering at highway speeds thus possibly losing control. I took it to the dealership and they said there was nothing wrong with the car. I let them know they were wrong. Technician test drove the car but never took it onto the highway.

Having problems with the steering wheel, while driving my car, the steering wheel gets stiff and it is hard to maneuver causing the vehicle to pull. I feel very unsafe driving my vehicle on the road. I received a recall noticed, therefore I took my car to dealership but was informed that my car was not under recall, but was informed that I needed to replace the steering gearbox. I don't understand why my vehicle doesn't show as having a recall if I am having the same issue mentioned on the current steering rack recall. I have been waiting for my car to get fixed for over a month; the dealership is waiting for parts. Meanwhile I have to drive my vehicle with this problem because the dealership will not provide a rental due to vehicle's recall status.

The steering wheel has been sticking when turning left and right, resulting in a not smooth turn. The steering wheel also sticks when making minor adjustments to direction while driving straight. Most noticeable at highway speeds of 65+mph This has happened every time I've driven the car for the past few months. I took it to Honda this week, 2/19/24 and they stated they could not replicate it, but one tech/service advisor did note that they did feel some stiffness Honda states they recalibrated the steering wheel

I began having intermittent problems with my power steering system several months ago. While driving at highway speeds, the steering wheel gets "stuck", and I have to use force to unstick it, which causes overcorrection at times and makes it difficult to keep the car in the proper lane. Since there was a recall on my car involving the steering rack, my husband took my car into the Honda dealership in Gainesville, FL and explained the problems I've been having with the sticky steering. They drove the car, but said they could not replicate the problem I described, so no repair was done, but they did inspect the recalled steering rack. There have never been any warning lights or messages when the symptoms appear. Since taking the car to the dealership, the problem with the steering has been getting progressively worse, making it very difficult to drive. I called the dealership again today, and have an appointment to take it in again tomorrow, February 20, 2024.

The steering wheel feels like it is sticking which causes minor corrections to be over corrections. It’s like the steering wheel gets stuck and you have to force it to turn in order to make a correction.

When driving on freeway or high speeds the steering wheel tends to get “sticky” or harder to turn and when I turn the wheel slightly I hear a clicking noise .This only happens when I drive the vehicle at highway speeds

Steering locks and is sticking after driving straight. Difficult to steer. Over correcting during driving causing lane change. DANGEROUS.

After a little while (15-30 minutes) of driving at highway speeds on long stretches, at least 50mph the steering wheel is jerking around. My car has 31,000 miles on it. I had it in regularly for service. The car has been serviced by Honda twice, they have assured me that everything looked okay. Noting it was the the 'tires' that were the problem. or the alignment. I have paid nearly $1000 out of pocket and the car is still jerking. They checked my VIN for the recall but said it wasn't included, yet i'm still experiencing jerking of the wheel despite alignment, rotation and balancing of tires. I feel my safety is at risk because the steering will jerk suddenly while driving straight (at highway speeds) and makes it difficult to stay in my lane.

My steering wheel pops and feels like it locks at 45 mph and up

2022 Honda civic which I lease. We have noticed a problem with steering wheel sticking at times when adjusting or starting to turn. Steering wheel sticks in both directions mainly at highway speeds. Cause for concern, dealership says there is not a problem or can NOT be detected. This is a problem.

My electric power steering system is causing the well known and documented "sticky steering" which is affecting the 2022 and 2023 Civics, CRVs, and some Acura models. My vehicle started this around 35,000 miles. I understand there is an ongoing investigation in progress, but would like to make a formal complaint to push for Honda to issue an official recall for this problem. The problem has been addressed by my local dealer, and they have ordered a replacement part that will supposedly fix the problem, by they could not give me an estimate for when the part would arrive. Therefore, I'm stuck driving a vehicle 50 miles a day to work and back which has very unsettling and potentially unsafe driving characteristics.

When driving the steering wheel sticks and the car drifts whichever direction I’ve last turned the steering. I constantly have to fight the steering wheel to keep the car going straight.

Vehicle steering gets sticky and requires more effort to steer

After about 20 minutes of driving the steering wheel starts sticking. You have to put more effort into turning the steering wheel and once it comes unstuck, you slightly over correct and then have to turn back the other way which results in the same thing all over again because it keeps getting stuck. I put around 65,000 miles on the car and never had any problems until I carried the car in for the steering rack recall. They said my car was fine and it has been sticking ever since they checked it. I called them back and they said they didn't touch or adjust anything.

STICKY STEERING WHEEL AT ABOVE 50MPH WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURN TO LEFT. HAVE TO PUT EXTRA EFFORT AND HAVE TO JERK IT TO RETURN THE STEERING WHEEL TO CENTER. THERE WAS AN EVENT OF OVER CORRECTION OF THE WHEEL. HEARD CLUNK SOUND WHEN TURN TO LEFT ONLY. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO CAPITOL HONDA AT SAN JOSE CA. FOR RECALL AND THIS IS THEIR DIAGNOSIS: "TEST DROVE VEHICLE AND VERIFIED STEERING WHEEL WILL GET HARD TO TURN BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE NOISE WHEN TURNING LEFT. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION FOUND STEERING RACK HAS INTERNAL PROBLEM. RECOMMEND REPLACING STEERING RACK AND RECHECK FOR NOISE AFTER REPLACEMENT". SERVICE ADVISOR QUOTED ME $2795.12. AREN'T DAY SUPPOSE TO REPLACE FOR FREE PER RECALL? CALLED HONDA CARS AND WAS APPROVED FOR GOODWILL ASSISTANCE. CAPITOL HONDA SERVICE MANAGER RE-QUOTED ME FOR $1134.97. I CALLED BACK HONDA CARS TO RE-OPEN THE CASE. IM WAITING FOR HONDA CARS FOR THE RESULT OF THEIR FURTHER INVESTIGATION.

I have about 22000 miles on my 2022 Civic Hatchback Sport Touring. I am noticing an increased frequency in "sticky steering". At approximately 40mph and higher, it feels as if I need to apply extra effort to get the steering wheel to move, and then it releases. This is not just irritating - it causes major overcorrections on the highway and has led to me crossing the lane lines. I have researched this, and I found that many other Civic drivers experience this issue.

Steering is sticking, so I am having to adjust my wheel, while driving straight. When I go around a curve or make a turn it's worse. I took my car to the dealership when I learned about the recall and they didn't tell me anything. I took it back to them 2/12/24 and the "service manager" said that my WA and WB stickers weren't the same numbers as the recall. EVEN though my vin number says my car has a recall. Service manager said he would send a form to Goodwill on getting it approved, Received a text from the service manager on 2/13/24 and he says now that his district sales rep hasn't given him the approval for the Goodwill.. Its NOT THEIR LIVES at DANGER and they DO NOT CARE.......

So I had my steering rack changed on 3/23/23 because the steering wheel was having difficulty turning like it was sticking or notching feeling above 35 mph. The transition was from one lane to the other was not smooth. Now here I am less than one year later and the steering wheel is doing the exact same thing I took it in on 1/06/2024 to Gwinnett place Honda and they said they couldn’t duplicate the problem. But it happens after you drive the car for a while. So I’m waiting for it to get so bad that the problem can’t be denied at the dealer. We shouldn’t have to change a steering wheel component once every 20000 miles or once a year. The steering wheel is getting harder and harder to turn and I hear some noise when I back up. It’s pretty scary, I really doing know what to do the shop foreman said that even if I get another one it could still do it again which is crazy. I just know that it’s unsafe. Thanks

While driving at highway speeds, steering wheel seems to stick when making small adjustments. This is very tiring and concerning, not being able to fully trust that it won’t freeze up completely. Vehicle has not been inspected by anyone else. No warning lights, etc., to indicate issues.

Recently, I've observed that my steering wheel feels stiff when I reach speeds of 45 mph and higher, particularly noticeable on straightaways. The wheel doesn't respond smoothly, making corrections difficult and causing the vehicle to jerk abruptly. It started off gradually, but now has become an everyday occurrence. I lights or indications appear.

The steering wheel is sticking.m when driving straight and in turns. It's a slight stick, but increasingly more noticeable. While driving straight it happens if I don't touch the wheel for a few seconds. Then I'll need to make a minor correction and it's stuck. I have to put some decent pressure on the wheel to make it unstuck, which causes an over-correction. Leaving it in one position for more than a second or two initiates the stuck.

Steering sticks at highway speeds causing over corrections. This causes me to have to constantly make adjustment just to maintain lane.

Steering sticks and/or jerks slightly to the left at random times and speeds. Could be extremely dangerous at highway speeds.

Steering is sticking and caused my wife to damage wheel and tire, had recall done and hoped it would fix it but Honda said it was fine and it is still sticking and has resistance while turn both directions. Lane assist is off. We bought for my daughters first car but I will not let her drive it, not safe.

Just got this car and steering wheel feels stuck to the left at over 45mph, doesn’t turn back straight by its own, will have to use a little force, sometimes at curves will caught you off guard and makes you to invade lines, definitely puts you and other drivers at risk of crash

I own a 2022 Honda Civic. I am having problems with the steering sticking. When traveling down the road and you need to make a slight correction to straighten up the steering or even switching lanes you have to give the steering wheel a slight tug, which then causes you to over correct and, in some instances, could cause an accident. This is very unsafe for any driver, and I will not even let my daughter drive the car because of this. The dealership is aware of the issue, but because the car is out of warranty, they will charge a $180 diagnostic fee, which I can't afford at this time being a single mother and the cost of things rising. I just feel this should be a recall on Honda's behalf seeing it is happening to a lot of other people as well. It wasn't so bad to start off with, but it seems to be happening every time I get behind the wheel now.

Steering wheel has become sticky, feels stuck, hard to keep car in a straight line, wheel jerks when trying to drive. Extremely unsafe and scary.

Steering wheel sticks while driving causing driver to jerk the wheel to make it move

my steering wheel is sticking and i have to fight with it to be able to steer my car it has been horrible for over a year. it very much is dangerous and so scary sometimes. i do not know when one day it is not going to turn and cause me to wreck. took it to dealership twice they told me the first time it's fine and they did not look at it. the second time they did not look at my car and just told me there would be a recall that Honda knows they have a problem and according to Honda it's safe to drive.when i received my recall they said my serial number on the steering does not match the one on recall and now they want me to pay a deductible and use my extended warranty because now my car is over the 36,000 miles. no warning lights come on for this. the dealer has ordered my part which is not going to be here till April 4th and once again wanting to me pay for it!!!

Steering wheel keeps getting stuck when driving on the freeway and after. I have voiced my concern about it to honda several times since getting the car but kept being dismissed. It got so bad I had to find my own mechanic to get the problem diagnosed so I could bring invoice to them. After doing so honda finally inspected it and were able to reproduce the problem but told me they cannot fix it because the parts are not available and my car is out warranty for it. It’s gotten so bad I’m scared it will get completely stuck and cause an accident.

On [XXX] I had my wife take our 2022 HONDA CIVIC TOURING to COGGIN HONDA of ORLANDO for Maintenance Minder A,1services and to have them check as to why the car is making a funny sound when turning the steering wheel. Via text message, she informed me that they told her that the steering rack needed to be replaced and that it would cost $2245 with all the other services needed for the vehicle. I declined to have it fixed at that moment. October 19, 2023, I received an alert via HONDA LINK and saw there was a recall on the steering rack. On [XXX] I took the car back to COGGIN HONDA hoping they would now repair as it is now evident that the steering rack malfunction is not my fault and has an active safety recall. According to the technician, once he took pics of the part, he claimed it passed the inspection. That didn’t make sense to me. My HONDA LINK app still shows that the recall is active and I deserve the remedy owed to me and hope that the lack there of hasn’t caused further damage to my automobile. Also, I was told that the vehicle warranty had expired but the documentation attached clearly states that it is in effect until [XXX]. Please notice that they state that there are no active recalls on the vehicle. So now I am filing this complaint to have this safety issue resolved and to receive my remedy. Please see attached files. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Whenever I drive down the road there is a tightness in my steering wheel like it’s locking in place. I have to turn it just a little bit to get it to not have that tightness anymore and when I do it jerks. This problem has almost caused me to have wrecks and has been going on for 2 months now. I’ve taken it to dealership twice to address this problem and they tell me they don’t know what’s wrong with it and they can’t fix it if it’s not gonna duplicate.

sticky steering, while driving at normal road speed 30-40mph in a straight line steering wheel sticks and requires constant adjustments to maintain lane, lane keep assist is off.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 65-70 MPH and turning the steering wheel, the steering wheel was sticky and resistant. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure recurred several times while driving. The contact later received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering) and the vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer inspected the vehicle and confirmed that the steering rack was installed correctly. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring. The dealer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Action Number: EA23003 (Steering). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200.

Mileage: 200

The steering “sticks” or catches while driving. I have to constantly over correct steering to compensate and keep the car in the lane. This is especially troubling at highway speeds. I took the car to the dealer and they were able to reproduce the issue. They said there are faulty steering components and agreed to replace. Repairs have not been completed as of date.

"While driving my 2022 Honda Civic sport straight on the highway at speeds over 40 mph, an abnormal amount of force needs to be applied to the steering wheel in order to make minor directional corrections. This excess steering sensitivity poses a safety risk, as minor but necessary steering adjustments require excessive effort and attention while driving at high speeds

Sticky steering

While driving at highway speeds in a straight line the steering becomes sticky. It takes more effort than should be needed to correct the steering to stay in your lane. It can cause me to correct too much and make it difficult to maintain driving in the center of the lane.

once warmed up, steering would have a tight ROM and get stuck to one side or the other, requiring excessive force to correct. vehicle has been in service since december waiting on back ordered parts

The Steering on my Vehicle is sticky at moderate to high Speeds! Whenever im driving and i need to make small corrections, the steering sticks causing me to have to apply more force to the Steering Wheel to overcome the Stickiness which then is causing my Vehicle to swerve slightly, i believe under the right circumstances that can become dangerous! Honda dealer was Notified, inspection was carried out by said Honda Dealer. I was informed the part that needs to be replaced is on Backorder and won’t be in for a COUPLE MONTHS! No Loner Vehicle was offered, the Dealership informed me that they are well aware of the Problem and that the Vehicle is safe to drive. No warning Lamps are illuminated at the Time the Sticky Steering is occurring.

The steering has become "notchy" or "sticking" at highway speeds. Any small adjustments between 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock on the steering wheel require more steering force. I'm unsure if this is a steering rack, power steering, or steering column issue. The issue can be replicated. I just worry about safety of others on the road as well as my own. I bought this car to be reliable for my clinical rotations out of state, and have some worries now. My civic only has 28k miles on it and was bought new. My steering rack was evaluated by a certified dealer for recall, and the serial number was deemed normal. No faults or warning signs have appeared. I called a dealer today, they are aware of the issue in "15 other civics," but can not act since Honda has not released any information/solution. The service advisor just told me, "be careful." No other advice or instructions given.

The steering has become notchie. You can feel the wheel jump with slight movement. It use to be smooth, now it has an odd jerkyness to it. Alignment and tires good. Care has 40k

When driving, the steering wheel feels sticky and requires some force to keep the car driving straight. Car does not drive straight and requires constant handling of the steering wheel to keep it in the lane. It almost feels like the lane keeping system is trying to turn the car back into the lane but this feature has been disabled. I frequently notice this when driving on the highway at highway speeds after the car has been warmed up.

I’ve had this car for the past two years and when I purchased it, I thought the steering wheel sticking was because the was new. Here we are two years later and I’ve having to jerk the wheel to unstick it while driving at high speeds on the freeway. I feel very unsafe when driving. I received a recall notice in the mail explaining to take the vehicle in to your local Honda dealer and they would asses the recall and repair for free, only for them to look at the problem and tell me it is not under warranty. I showed the paper once again that said they would repair it for free and they refused to do so. Please help me.

Sticky Steering. Ever since I bought this car it feels as if the steering wheel sticks in certain spots. It will drive you crazy going down the highway. Unsafe as you have to jerk on the wheel.

Sticky steering feel. Needs a little force just to turn from a certain point when it starts to stick

Car has notchy sticky steering brought car in for recall said steering rack is good and car continues to have issues with steering very unsafe to drive they said I need a new rack and pinion which will take 1-2 months they said they can only give me a rental for 10 days and I am making car payments on a car I can’t even drive safely…..

At moderate to highway speeds, the steering wheel feels like it’s sticky when attempting to make small steering adjustments. The car will not immediately steer and more force is required than usual. This is more noticeable at higher speeds but also occurs at lower speeds. This issue also just began after 25,000 miles.

steering feels "sticky" when making minor turn adjustments on a straight road. It would randomly freeze at a position and require extra effort to "break loose", resulting in unwanted oversteering. This problem used to occur occasionally at highway speeds only (50+ mph), but now happening more consistently at any speed. Had a Honda dealer inspected the vehicle, they claimed the car drives normally and there is no issue with steering.

My new Honda Civic 2022 purchased April 2022 first exhibited "sticky" steering about 6 months after purchase. The issue started off as a low resistance and would go away and not happen again for weeks. By mid 2023 the sticky steering resistance had become significant and was occurring more frequently. I began taking my car into the dealership however they were unable to reproduce the issue. In December 2023 I could no longer safely operate my car at speeds above 40 mph as small steering corrections required over-steering. I took my car back to the dealer saying I could no longer drive it. They reproduced the issue and took possession of my vehicle. My car is under warranty however there are no parts available to make repairs. The dealership has been in possession of my vehicle for 2 months now and last I was informed the availability of parts had been delayed.

Steering is 'sticky,' making it difficult to make minor adjustments while driving. Each time any move is made with the steering wheel, it is like it has to 'break free' from being stuck. This happens almost all the time over 50-65 mph, regardless of the driving mode

Steering sticks or gets stuck while driving at highway speeds causing additional effort or overcorrection to steer efficiently.

My 2022 Honda Civic Sport has been having an issue with the steering rack it seems. The steering wheel gets stuck when turning left and right. It "sticks". This is super frustrating with it being a new car. I have never been in a vehicle that has an issue like this, and it seems that many people have the same issue as me.

Over the last 6 months or so, the steering has felt weird - like I would have to sharply move it when trying to adjust going left or right. More noticeable the faster the car moves. Getting worse now. I researched 2022 Honda Civic EX steering issues, and reports of "sticky" steering are being investigated. "Sticky" is exactly the term I would use when describing this problem. I will now contact my Honda dealership to report the problem and attempt to find a solution. Car still under warranty.

The steering sticks, feels tight like it’s hard to turn when driving at 40mph+ speeds. You have to apply more steering pressure to turn the wheel, at which point the steering pressure will suddenly release and turn normally. It will do this constantly as you drive down the road.

When driving at highway speeds, steering wheel “sticks” or “locks” and requires extra force to turn. Problem was intermittent at first but has gotten worse over the last few days. Problem seems to occur whenever the wheel has not been turned for a few seconds. Driving at city speeds doesn’t cause problem to occur. No lights or warnings indicate any problems. Issue occurs with or without lane departure on. I’ve made an appointment with the dealership. Dealership said they would “re-inspect” a part that had previously passed their visual inspection but has known issues/recalls.

My steering wheel does this "sticky" thing. It's exactly what I have read about online. If I turn left the car is not turning with me. If I turn right the car isn't turning with me. Very unsafe and has almost cause multiple accidents! I took the car to the dealership and they were not a huge help. I was quoted $2500 for repairs! Unacceptable for such a new car and such a common problem!

Steering wheel is sticking at speeds greater than 40 MPH. This has been an on-going issue for several months, but over the last week it has been getting worse. The incident that has prompted this complaint occurred while driving this evening on the interstate. I moved to pass an 18-wheeler while entering a slight curve in the lanes. The steering wheel failed to respond as it should have, and I felt as if I could have been in an accident. It isn't that I could not turn at all, but the extra effort I had to use on the wheel in order to navigate only a modest curve in the scared me in that particular situation. Since it is getting worse, I have to say I'm not fully confident of my safety while driving this car. I feel this for two reasons: first, I have no idea when or where the problem might present itself, or to what degree of effort I will need to put into the wheel; and second, I feel at some point I will overcompensate and either hit another vehicle or drive into a skid. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer, but I am not certain they even test-drove the car. The invoice states it operates as normal, which means they could not have test-drove it. I described my issue in detail, even showed them the complaints on the NHTSA website, and I was told that Honda did not have a solution for the problem. There are no warning lamps present, and the vehicle is available for inspection for anyone who wants to inspect it.

When driving at 50mph the steering wheel gets stuck and requires more force in order to slightly turn the wheel, I took my car to the dealership to get my recall fixed about the steering rack but the issues persists.

Sticky steering, vehicle is hard to drive at highway speeds due to steering sticking making it impossible to make minor corrections. After making a sweeping turn the steering does not return to center on its own and requiring force to center. This was first reported at around 6,000 miles and repaired at 12,000 miles. This has now reoccurred at 24,000 miles and is persisting. according to the dealer the repair part is 4 months out. This car is dangerous to drive!

Steering is sticking when driving at highway speeds. Steering wheel requires extra force to begin steering, and after starting to turn the wheel, power steering starts at a delay. This causes difficulty making small steering adjustments and causes sudden overcorrection.

I purchased a 2022 Civic LX in 2022, it now has 75k miles. After 50k or so i started to notice the steering wheel almost start to "stick" & make a popping/clicking noise (different than that of a cv axle) after long highway commutes, for example...im going 30mph on the street & i start to make a turn and i will almost have to kind of force &/or unstick the wheel to align it. I've seen numerous reports on this issue & its quite scary.

I have $32k miles on my car. I noticed within the last month, and it's getting worse, my steering is "sticky" or "Jerky". I do not use lane assit ever. 50+ if when i start to notice and gets worse the fast you go.

Steering wheel “sticky” while driving, when turning the wheel it feels like it is tight or sticky, the wheel doesn’t turn smoothly. I noticed a few weeks ago and have recently seen other complaints of the same situation.

Steering feels sticky/stuck at 40mph + after driven for awhile(10min+). Extremely noticeable at highway speeds. I’m feeling like I’m fighting my car to stay in the center of my lane. Safety is hard to maintain, hard to keep in center of lane. We’ve taken it in to dealership and they couldn’t reproduce but never took it on highway. Several phone calls to dealer. I did do the steering column recall. Dealer inspected car for this recall and took pictures to submit to Honda. No warning lights, messages or other symptoms prior to this happening. Drove with no issues until 3-1-2023. Low mileage. I only have about 7,500 on car now. Issue started around 4,000 miles. I never use lane assist. This happens every time I drive the car.

When driving, it feels as if the electric power steering is sticking. This has been happening on and off for months but has recently became every time I get behind the wheel. I notice it around 30 mph or higher (the faster I go, the worse it is). I do not feel safe driving my own vehicle. I feel like I always have to correct myself to keep my vehicle in the lane and fear of running off the road, causing an accident or lose control of my vehicle. I have taken my vehicle to my local Honda dealership and they cannot duplicate the issue. I have had 2 mechanics feel it the first time they test drove my vehicle. I have read there is a class action lawsuit for this same exact thing for the exact year, make and model of my vehicle.

Sticking steering wheel when driving long distances on the freeway and make long turns getting on and off freeway ramps. I brought my car in for service to Honda before the warranty expired at 36k miles regarding the sticking steering wheel issue, another known recall “Part 573 Safety Recall Report” and an oil change. Honda Escondido advised me that my car was good to go. I brought the vehicle back to Honda with just less than 100 miles over the 36k mark and now they advise me that the vehicle needs repair and I'm outside of the warranty period. This issue needs to be updated to an active recall due to the seriousness of danger this issue could potentially cause. Working with the dealership and corporate to get this matter resolved. *Perform a web search and see how many people are dealing with known issue.

The steering on my vehicle has started to "stick" in the center. It's only really noticeable when traveling straight at highway speeds. it becomes more difficult to stay within the lane, as the smallest increment I'm able to turn the wheel is larger than the amount I actually need to turn the wheel. So I am constantly over-correcting, causing the vehicle to slowly bounce between the left side of the lane and the right, rarely able to actually stay in the center of the lane. This increases the amount of effort required by the driver to stay inside the lane. almost feel like you're trying to pull two magnets apart to get the vehicle to go in a straight line. The steering almost feels like it's stuck in a rut and you have to pull it out and then it gets stuck again and this is never ending throughout the drive.

When I am driving the vehicle at highway speeds 50-65 mph and try to correct steering wheel a little to the left or right it feels stiff and it’s been happening for like a year. This puts other drivers and myself in danger because my steering wheel shouldn’t feel sticky or hard to adjust it while driving in the freeway. Also many other drivers of the same model 22-23 civics have reported the same issues.

Sticky steering wheel. Steering is difficult when I am driving.

While driving felt the steering wheel stick when the wheels are straight and in order for me to get back control I have to jerk it left or right but as I am driving doing that car feels like I’m constantly moving from the sides of the lane not straight anymore. At first it was highway speeds but notice yesterday that it’s at lower speeds as well. It feels like the steering wheel just gets stuck when you get your steering wheel straight, all I have to do is jerk it a little but that doesn’t seem right, had the car brand new and never felt this until 2 days ago.

Issue with the steering wheel. It was hard to drive the car because steering wheel did not let me keep the car straight and ever turns, the steering wheel would fight me pushing it back which put me and others at risk where I almost hit someone. Took the the Honda dealership where I bought the car. First time that I took 12/20/23. Explained to the servicer advisor and he said it was due to a recall. Servicer advisor said it was fixed. After the 1 day driving the car, the issue was still there. Checked the inspection report and it said that according to the EPS gearbox part number/serial number label was not effected so no repair necessary. Had to take again to the dealership on 12/27/23 where they found that the issue is a manufactured part defect and they have not been able to fix it due to not having the parts and waiting for American Honda.

When I am driving at highway speeds in a lane on a straight path the steering wanders from center. When I attempt to correct there is resistance in the steering wheel. I have to "push through" the resistance at which point the steering obstruction suddenly clears and if I am not ready for it the sudden lightness of the steering can sometimes cause me to overcorrect. As I return to center coming from the other direction I again encounter resistance in the wheel at center. This only seems to happens when the vehicle is driven straight, in turns at surface street speeds there is no detectable resistance and the wheel turns smoothly. The effect is quite pronounced at highway speed and does occur at lower speeds on surface streets when driving straight but is much less noticeable.

My civic has steering problems. It’s sticks in place and at times appears to float.Its unsafe to drive. Honda Dealership evaluation shows the steering rack and components need replacing. Parts on back order due to this happening everywhere to 11th gen civic owners. I’m told it will be the end of April 2024 before part availabile due to demand, that’s 3-4 months away, my car sits undriveable! My concern is they replace steering rack with same faulty products and it happens AGAIN when out of warranty.

When driving the vehicle in a straight road. While attempting to keep the vehicle in the center of the road the steering wheel is “sticking” and I have to apply a little more force to get it to counter steer to keep the car aligned.

Steering becomes “sticky” after driving 15 minutes. It is mostly noticeable at highway speeds. It requires extra effort to make small corrections but then releases and causes over correction. It has not been inspected but after doing research it appears to be a common problem.

I was making a right turn the steering wheel stuck & I hit a curb causing significant damage. Honda says it’s not from recall & won’t pay for any of it $4600 to repair it. It was clearing from the steering being sticky.

Unknown. The steering wheel feels like it gets stuck when I'm driving at 45 mph+, but especially around 70 mph. It's like the steering wheel is locked and I have to forcefully tug it to correct my driving, but then it gets stuck all over again, so it's a constant back and forth while making minor corrections when driving.

There at times where the steering requires a little more effort to turn. This causes me to either over correct or panic a little bit that my steering wheel is "sticky".

-What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Unknown, possibly the steering rack and or power steering motor. -How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk Inability to safely maintain lanes and the wheel not returning to the center after a turn requires extra force (Especially60+MPH) to get the wheel moving again that causes over corrections and in turn swerving that can be very dangerous to me and others on the road especially after getting stuck during said over correction. -Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, I took the car to the dealership said they were aware of some cars having this "sticky steering" and they did NOT get in the car to confirm the issue. -Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes, after I called the dealership about the steering issue, the dealership scheduled appointment for the car and held the car at the dealership for (I think 1) day for a recall for a similar issue description: "An improperly assembled steering rack may allow tires and/or tire chains to rub against the vehicle’s lower suspension or tire rod end, which could cause tire damage." They gave the car back after the 1 day and said the car wasn't experiencing said issue of the tires rubbing and they updated some software. Nothing changed after getting the car back, they did not replace or service any parts of the car. The steering issue has gotten significantly worse since. -Any warning lamps, messages OrOther symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? I started noticing the steering wheel getting stuck when driving straight and requiring extra force to get it moving again, micro adjustments are really hard without over correcting. The wheel also started no longer returning to center and gets stuck off center and LKAS wont stayCenteredInLN

Steering wheel becomes jerky from time to time. Lane keep assist driving help is turned off. The steering wheel sometimes wants to correct the angle when driving in a straight line.

My steering wheel jerks on highway constantly

For several months, the steering wheel has been sticking (slightly left and right of center) when traveling at highway speeds. It’s almost feels like we have to push it past a break point. The car was just serviced approx two weeks ago, and no issues were reported by the dealer. They did not drive it at highway speeds, so we assume they only checked for codes. This is of concern, as the car is driven through mountains often and the need to make subtle turns n the steering wheel are essential. The issue requires extra effort to keep the car straight between lines. The car could be made available for inspection with prior notice.

Steering feel sticky while driving or at idle. I feel resistance while turning the wheel. At stop if I slowly turn the wheel you can definitely feel it being sticky. I have take the car to the dealership and as usual they told me it's normal. They are many many other people who have same complaint. There should be a recall.

Starting from low speeds, you have constantly correct the steering. As you are driving, the steering automatically motions to the right. This causes u to correct the steering constantly, even at low speeds. Speeds of 45, it becomes dangerous.

The steering rack is malfunctioning, causing a sticky feel through the steering wheel. - This is potentially dangerous because the car will not straighten up without considerable effort when leaving a curve. The car will also wander in it's lane because the stickiness in the steering wheel makes it impossible to make minor corrections. - I am in contact with the dealership to have it inspected, it is out of warranty so it will most likely not be covered without a service bulletin. - There are no warning lights whatsoever.

At highway speeds, I feel a stickiness/resistance when I make adjustments to steering. It feels like there is glue or something sticky stopping me from adjusting the wheel.

Vehicle steering wheel begins to get stuck/locked in position when turning on high and low speeds after driving the car for about 20-30 mins. Becomes very unsafe on the high way when taking curves at high speeds and having to forcefully turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction to unlock or unstick the steering wheel. Problem persist at low speeds when driving in the city at and making sharp turns. In a few occasions I’ve almost gotten into an accident by nearly swiping vehicles trying to keep the steering wheel straight. I took in the car on 1/2/24 to Galpin Honda to look into the problem/recall and they stated nothing in wrong with the vehicle and returned the car into my possession. The problem still persist after leaving the dealer.

10/19/2023 NHTSA recall 23V-704, Manufacturer recall YFW 10/28/2023--I rented a 2022 Honda Civic from National at airport. Leaving the airport initially I didn't notice an issue. But after traveling several miles at highway speeds, on changing lanes or making minor adjustments in direction, I noticed the steering wheel felt like it would stick, then release allowing the car to change direction, stick, then release allowing the car to change direction. This happened with each adjustment of the steering wheel. This did not occur driving at slower speeds. 11/2/2023--I had driven west from Miami Beach on Tamiami US Highway 41 and had entered Cypress National Preserve. I had reached about the midpoint between Miami Beach and Naples, missed the left turn to highway 94. Realizing I had missed my turn, I was driving about 45 mph looking for somewhere I could safely turnaround. I saw a road off to the left, slowed to make a left hand turn. While continuing to brake, I started to make the left hand turn. About 30-45 degrees into the turn, the car stopped responding to my turning the steering wheel. LOST STEERING. Car was headed for the ditch and guard rail. I continued to turn the steering wheel left but it had no effect. I continued to brake and slowed the car as I went through the ditch before hitting the guard rail. I did not hit the steering column, my passenger did not hit the windshield. The airbags did not open. My phone automatically called 911. A couple from Tennessee stopped to help us. This happened at dusk and it quickly became very dark. They stayed with us over 2 hours until National's tow truck arrived and then they drove us back to our hotel, 50+ miles each direction out of their way. The tow truck could only take one of us and we could not get Uber or Lyft to go that far out of Miami. No warning lights or messages prior. As of 12/31/2023 NHTSA website indicates this recall still incomplete.

Same issue as 400 other people the steering sticks when Turing and I have to apply force to get it it go back to center, can’t drive straight down the road past 50 it’s like I’m a drunk driver anytime I’m on the freeway I’ve had the alignment checked and it’s in spec manager at Honda approved rack replacement but no eta it has been 2 months now and I’ve already almost crashed the car and a police officer pulled me over because I was back and forth in my lane so much thank god he understood my problem and let me go and the dealer won’t give me a lender because it’s “not dangerous” I saw somebody else post it’s going to take a death before Honda does anything

At highway speeds there starts a sticky sensation in the steering. If I’m holding the steering to the left it also feels like it sticks and fails to come back to the middle, but if I apply a little pressure it loosens immediately.

I’ve been having issues few months after I bought the car from Honda dealership. I took it back and forth to them and they said there was an issue but did nothing. The recalls about the steering came up and I don’t feel safe driving the car but last week I took it and they said there was nothing wrong. Steering is sticky. I’m all over the road having to make corrections 90% of the time I’m driving. Without the lane assist it does it. With the lane assist on the car won’t even stay straight due to the problem. its very unsafe & aggravating to own a car paying so much a month for a newer car and with issues. An alignment was done and the steering wheel cannot be put straight even. It’s definitely a safety problem. Honda wants to do nothing about it due to parts and labor being $2800 and change and they’d be losing money it’s my thought. Thinking about doing lemon law because it’s very unsafe to drive the car and it’s rare when the car shows no problem at all. I shouldn’t have to make corrections the whole time I’m driving.

Steering is binding at highway speeds. I am unable to keep the vehicle in between one lane steadily because every time I make small corrections the steering wheel sticks and causes an over correction which is extremely dangerous. The problem has been inspected and diagnosed by a Honda dealership. I have been told I need a new steering rack and pinion. Upon researching this issue I have found thousands of other 2022 Honda Civic Sedan owners having the same issue with their vehicles, including another individual at the Honda dealership the same exact day I went to address my problem. This is a safety concern and it needs to be addressed and recalled for the safety of all those involved with this year, make, and model car. There were previous recalls with 2023 and 2024 civics due to similar issues with the steering rack and pinion. The 2022 also needs to be considered as it is very dangerous and can lead to bigger issues as the severity of my steering problem has increased as my mileage has gone up. Every single time I drive over 30 miles per Hour my steering wheel begins binding.

Steering feels weird and the car just can’t drive STRAIGHT. It’s been like this since I bought the car and I thought it was the alignment but it wasn’t

Steering requires unusual effort. This feels completely different than a car without power steering - it's as if the steering is a bit rigid when steering right or left but loosens up once the initial rigidity is overcome by the driver. Risk is that I didn't know whether I had full control of the car. Quite scary. Problem has not been reported to Honda. No inspections have taken place. No warning lamps, messages.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at slow and at high speeds, the steering was sticking, which required added effort in steering the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, but no fault was found, and no repairs were performed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

When driving at mainly 35MHP+ the steering has a “catch” to it. They refer to this as “sticky steering”. Took the car into the Honda dealership and they confirmed the issue. Parts are on back order with no ETA available. This problem has been ongoing for months now and still nothing is being done about it.

I just hit 30k miles on my civic. And I started noticing the sticky steering. It feels like the steering wheel gets stuck. This is a headache for all 11th gen civic owners. REPLACING THE STEERING RACK DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WE NEED A LAWSUIT AGAINST HONDA!!!!!!!!

When driving the 22 civic sport the steering wheel seems to get stuck in a position and you have to fight it to get unstuck which is severely unsafe I have brought the vehicle to the dealer months back and they told me nothing is wrong I became very frustrated because my wife drives this vehicle to work and brings our boys to school and there safety is at jeopardy daily it’s a brand new vehicle now there is a steering rack recall as of December 2023 I am her today for the diagnosis I don’t have high hopes because they will tell me it’s fine again something needs to be done these cars are not safe to drive it’s a constant battle trying to drive this car and keep it going straight in your lane and the highway feels like a death trap today is December 27th 7:00am est I am waiting to pull into dealer service bay this needs to be addressed asap it’s a lease I have always leased never had issues this is my fourth one with Honda and the most trouble I have had now they told me they don’t even check anything about recall they scan the vin if it matches an issue they will fix it if not it’s fine be on your way I’m like what!!! I said the steering is really bad and was brought in before and they told me I’m feeling things it’s fine I need help from higher up this vehicle needs to be replaced asap it’s going to take a severe crash or death for this to become serious really I’m not the only one having this issue

Have 30k on 2022 Civic and steering is sticking making for an uncomfortable driving experience. Steering sticks and forces me to apply pressure to adjust making for an overcorrection and is a safety issue.

The electronic power steering system in the Honda Civic is failing. Steering wheel frequently “sticks” causing the driver to oversteer, in order to “unstick” the power steering mechanism. Power steering is notchy and sticky feeling, increasing in persistence. The vehicle feels unstable, thus unsafe for continued driving.

The beginning of November 2023 while driving on the interstate, I started to notice difficulty keeping the car in the lane from side to side in the lane with minimal adjustment to the steering wheel. When I return from my trip I brought it to Honda dealership to have it looked at. They said they couldn’t duplicate the issue that was it about 17,000 miles now I’m at 19,000 miles. The issue is getting worse today while driving on the interstate I barely touched the wheel to correct it to stay in the lane And it pulled to the left causing me to have to pull on the wheel to the right to keep it in the lane. I was not using any of the lane keeping assist safety features. This tends to be worse at higher speeds which is why the dealership says that they can’t duplicate the issue you have to get on the interstate with the car. It is noticeable, but not as bad driving around town.

STEERING WHEEL STICKS WHILE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE ABOVE 40MPH. CAUSES SIGNIFICANT DRIVING CORRECTIONS TO BE MADE TO THE STEERING WHEEL ESPECIALY OVER 60MPH.

We are experiencing an issue that seems to be related to the power steering of the vehicle. With no particular reason the power steering will start acting up and almost feel like you're trying to pull two magnets apart to get the vehicle to go in a straight line. The steering almost feels like it's stuck in a rut and you have to pull it out and then it gets stuck again and this is never ending throughout the drive. The issue doesn't require much force to overcome but can present itself within corners as well which is particularly concerning especially with the snow/ice season here in the Midwest. During our last oil change Honda mentioned that there was a recall on our vehicle related to the power steering and that they would perform a diagnostic scan to see if our vehicle was affected to which they said it was not. Our issue didn't sound like it was party of that recall though as that recall was about out of spec rubbing issues with the steering rack. Our issue is hard to get into service because the issue seems to be intermittent with no trigger and it's impossible to schedule a service appointment and have the issue diagnosed when it's not presenting itself. Additionally, The issue is present while at all speeds (10-70mph) and seems to be the same in severity.

When driving at higher speeds, the steering wheel feels "stuck," causing the driver to have to steer harder to overcome the "sticking." There have been no warning lights that have come on due to this problem. This is especially noticeable on the expressway. This is a clearly disconcerting issue on the expressway as I am constantly having to tug one way or the other on the steering wheel to "free" it up. I discussed this issue with a Honda service manager at a local dealership on 12/26/23, and though he acknowledged he has personally experienced this issue on another vehicle, he indicated there is currently no fix. I am the second owner of this vehicle (I purchased the vehicle with just over 16,000 miles). The car now has 30,000 miles and this steering issue is getting worse.

While driving, my car steers both to the left and right and when I correct it, the steering wheel and tires are stiff as if the tires are sticking to the ground. I also have to drive with both hands gripping the steering wheel firmly to stop the car from over correcting. It has gotten more difficult to steer the car. All of the driver assist features are turned off. This car is unsafe for me as well as other drivers on the road. I received the EPS recall notice inspection and took my car into Gerald Jones Honda in Augusta Georgia and was told that there wasn’t a defect but I am continuing to have this problem. I have an appointment today to take my car back.

My Steering wheel is getting stuck on high speeds, causing me to unwillingly Change lanes trying to correct the stuck steering wheel I took the car to the dealership for recall, said it wasn't the part they're looking for Service writer took it for a test drive and was unable to verify happens within 30 minutes of driving. I believe it's a faulty electric power steering.

Vehicle had been driving off center even after alignment was completed. Took for another one after wife almost lost control of vehicle in highway. Been at dealer since Nov 24,2023 and estimated time for completion is not until April 2024.

Steering sticks frequently at highway speeds (60+ mph) and sometimes at city speeds (30+ mph) causing me to apply extra force for micro adjustments and resulting in jerky and unsafe maneuvers. Particularly in extended curves the steering will stick in the initial turn position and require a good amount of force to change position. This creates unsafe maneuvers when driving. Vehicle was taken to dealership for sticky steering issue because I thought it might be related to a steering rack open recall, however dealership stated my vehicle was not affected by the recall and they were unable to replicate my issue with the sticky steering. There is no kind of warning light or notification on dash from any system when this issue happens. The feeling is most like when lane assist kicks in but the lane assist system is not engaging when the issue happens. The issue also happens regardless of lane assist being turned on or off.

Steering is catching when trying to make small left and right corrections to maintain lane.

When driving at highway speeds steering becomes sticky, making it a little harder to make minor adjustments when turning the wheel. Appears to occur mostly in winter months

When starting my car, it struggles to start and then the emissions system light stays on, warning of engine power being affected. The car sputters when driving. The lane departure light stays on, as well as the braking system light, which warns of potential problems with braking. My safety is at risk when trying to accelerate and sputtering instead. Since the problem started today, December 22, I can’t go to the dealer until after Christmas. No one else has inspected the vehicle yet. There were no other warnings, however steering did feel strange, starting a couple of days ago.

While driving on the highway, usually after driving in a straight line for an extended period of time, the steering will become “sticky”. During these scenarios, it takes more effort than normal to turn the steering wheel, and then suddenly becomes much lighter to turn. It can catch an unsuspecting driver off guard and could lead to a crash. I have seen many other complaints almost identical to mine, and Honda even has a service bulletin open about the issue.

When I am driving at high speeds my steering wheel feels like it gets stuck momentarily and I have to force it to go in the direction I want it to. Like it gets caught up on something? Kind of scary driving on the highway and feeling the steering wheel like seize up and have to force it.

I am experiencing a sticking steering wheel sensation that is most noticeable driving at high speeds. The wheel sticks and then jerks when corrected. It feels extremely unsafe. I do not want to drive it out of town or put more miles on it because I am afraid the problem will worsen or cause a wreck. I noticed this at 37,500 miles. Only 1500 miles outside of my warranty. I contacted Honda’s customer service to see if they would cover repairs since this is a known issue and I am right outside of warranty. They said it would have been covered is I was still under warranty. They said that I needed to take it to a Honda dealership, pay the diagnostic fee, get an official diagnosis, then contact them with the diagnosis for information on if they will cover repairs. I paid the fee and the car was diagnosed with “intermittent seizing coming from the power steering rack. Recommend replacement.”. They quoted me $3300 to repair. I contacted Honda and they said they would not waive my diagnostic fee because I’m outside of my warranty and this it’s not an active recall. They forwarded my information to someone to review my case. I submitted my diagnosis and links to this website showing the open investigation. I will be contacting an attorney if Honda continues to refuse to pay for repairs.

The steering wheel gets 'sticky' just to the left or right of the top dead center. It will catch and then release causing a sudden movement of the steering wheel. It is most noticeable above 45mph. It is very unnerving in the rain as it feels as if the car is hydroplaning even though it is 'just' the steering wheel sticking. Higher speeds on the interstate with mild corners are quite scary because the steering wheel doesn't just turn as you move your hand...it will catch and then with more force, it will suddenly release. To Honda's credit, they are replacing the entire steering rack and EPS under warranty but there doesn't seem to be any design change to the replacements so if this is a design issue I worry this issue will just return later on. It was noticeable when the car was at 5-6k miles but has become increasingly worse over time. It is now at 26k miles. There seem to be many concerns online over the same type of issue. The part is on back-order so I fear it will take some time to be fixed.

My steering wheel is sticking consistently. When driving I am unable to make minor, gentle course corrections because the wheel gets "stuck" and I have to use more force than normal to get it to move which then causes the car to jerk to the side slightly when it does release. While it is not a large amount of force needed, nor does the car veer wildly around the road it is significant enough that it is causing issues with driving. It requires enough extra force that my arms are physically becoming tired from correcting, and it seems to be increasing in severity. When I first noticed the issue it was sporadic and mild. It has now become constant and impedes driving. I am unable to drive straight without my car jerking back and forth every few seconds. It happens at all speeds, and both when lane keeping assist is on and off. Further, my lane keeping assist feature is now not functioning at all even in perfect conditions.

The rack and pinion which is power steering main components, has been inspected by Honda dealer and confirmed no warning light. while driving car steering wheel jerks to left side and seems to have a dead spot when trying to correct making it difficult to drive especially at 55 mph and on curves

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel became sticky. The contact stated that the steering wheel failed to return to the center upon slight movement of the steering wheel. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact was forced to manually re-adjust the steering wheel to prevent a potential accident. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer and was informed that the vehicle was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering) however, the contact was later informed that the vehicle was not included in the recall. The vehicle was then taken to another dealer where a diagnostic test was performed, and the dealer confirmed that the steering rack was defective and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 46,600.

Mileage: 46,600

At highway speeds the steering feels sticky and you have to exert unnatural force to get the steering to correct. The feeling is that the steering rack is stuck in position and has to be forced free. Happens during small corrections only.

When driving at highway speeds steering sticks , and you have to forcefully move it out of place.

Wheel becomes “sticky” in colder weather and takes much more pressure or strength to turn the wheel. Problem doesn’t persist in warmer weather. Becomes apparent at highway speeds, less so at lower speeds.

At Highway speeds, steering feels sticky. Slight adjustments left and right you can feel a sticking point that let’s go as you apply more pressure. This is a well documented issue across forums and ends up causing extremely dangerous conditions where you are fighting the wheel to steer at high speeds. They need to fix these cars

Steering wheel feels like it will get "sticky" while driving and requires some force or movement of wheel to overcome the sticking point. Has happened on speeds from 20 - 65 mph. Is mostly felt and experienced while driving straight. Was taken to one dealership to check out and they were not able to reproduce the problem, said it was fine. No warning lamps, messages or scan codes were found.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the steering wheel became firm. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact was able to continue driving. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while driving. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering) however, the VIN tool showed that the VIN was included in the recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 13,000.

Mileage: 13,000

When driving, especially on the freeway, the steering wheel sticks and does not move smoothly. When adjusting the steering wheel, it jerks and over corrects to compensate for the sticking problem. It feels extremely unsafe.

I am experiencing a sticky steering problem. My wheel catches regularly so it feels stuck. This happens at all speeds but especially at highway speeds. My turns are not smooth and the wheel must be torqued more than ever required on a car to turn and break the “lock”.

Hello. I recently purchased a 2022 Honda Civic. The vehicle has faulty steering (sticky) when reaching highway speeds. When I googled the issue description, several articles on class action lawsuits against Honda emerged. The problem prevents the smooth flow of the steering wheel, and when it sticks, you have to overcompensate to return it to normal, which feels very unsafe. I have taken the vehicle to a Honda dealership twice, and there has been no remedy, as the diagnostic test passes. There are no warning warning lamps or messages. I have read on your website that this is currently a recall that is not yet complete. I have owned the vehicle since August, and the problem has been there the whole time. Thank you.

Car has sticky steering at 40 plus mph. Due to sticky steering the car darts in the direction of steering once sticky spot releases. This happens in both directions.

My 2022 Honda Civic is having steering issues/problems. The vehicle will have steering issues after 10-15 minutes of driving. It’s very noticeably while driving on the freeway between 30-70 mph. It feels like the steering wheel will lock, i will need to over correct the steering wheel to “unlock” that “locked” steering feel. I have also noticed “clicking” sounds will come from underneath the vehicle will trying the steering wheel. I have taken my vehicle to a Honda Dealership, they inspected the vehicle, and said no recalls have been issued for my vehicle yet. I feel this is a huge safety problem, and hoping this report will help me resolve the issue.

The steering sticks when traveling at high rates of speed, on highways traveling between 60 - 75 mph. The steering sticks continuously at the high rates of speed on highways after traveling for an hour or so. A slight jerk on the steering wheel will correct the issue, but the sticking seems to get slightly harder to correct the longer the car is driven. The obvious safety issue is over correcting when the steering sticks could put the car and passengers in to other traffic, a retaining wall, ditch, etc. Another concern for safety is the sticky steering that gets harder to correct the longer the car is driven at high rates of speed, very likely, will become stuck and not allow the driver to control the steering at all. Honda dealership in Moss Point, Mississippi did a safety check for the power steering rack recall by Honda, and was made aware of the sticky steering and was given the instructions to detect the malfunction, but stated they did not notice anything wrong. To actually detect the malfuction, some time must be spent on the highway at more than 60 mph. The brief driving of the vehicle on a street riddled with traffic lights, for a few miles, by a technician, then returning to the dealership would not expose the issue. The test given was inadequate, and therefore inaccurate.

Car steering feel sticky to the left when driving, it doesn't matter the speed your going it sticks and you have to move it the other way to unglued it, many honda civic drivers are complaining about it and we need honda to make a recall for this matter

UNKNOWN. I didn’t have a accident but it can happen if the car stay like this. Every time im going to the right or left it’s like the steering wheel stay stuck and I have to pull it strong. The car only have almost 6,000 miles I have it for more than a year its really bad that is doing this it is almost brand new.

The steering feels like it is sticking when lane correcting. You have to use more force than needed to correct inside your lane. When it brakes free you have now over corrected. Could definitely cause a wreck. All assisting aspects are turned off. Happens most often when driving straight but have noticed it when doing long curves. One dealership said it was fine. Second said they need to replace the steering rack, rack and pinion, and gearbox. Part is on back order.

While driving between 40-75 mph, steering feels sticky. If driving on a straight road, deviations between 11 and 1 (like on a clock) cause the wheel to “stick” in place and needs extra effort to steer the car. Typically only happens during colder weather. Had no problems during the summer. I have also tested this by driving on curved roads and I’ve gone around the 120-140 degree turns without needing to hold on to the wheel, and with no driving assists turned on at all. I’ve had this issue for most of the cooler weather time, from late October 2023 to December 2023 (current). Also had the issue during the 2022 winter season. Lasted for about 2 months and went away. Now issue is back and clearly an issue amongst a lot of Civic owners (Reddit threads prove this).

After engine has warmed up, at around 40mph or faster, when the car is going straight and a slight adjustment needs to be made to the steering to bring the car back into line, there is a sticky click as the steering wheel turns about half a cm. It is a feeling in the steering that is not like the smooth, slight movement that should be felt. This can also be felt on slight curves as you make an adjustment in steering. The wheel sticks a bit and then seems to jump instead of just gliding the half cm turn it needs to make. I began feeling this about 3,000 miles ago, and my car currently is at 26,000 miles.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V652000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH the vehicle would not steer straight. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the steering rack and steering rack motor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired as parts are due to be received in a month. The contact stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

Mileage: 25,000

We are experiencing the "sticky steering" issue that is currently under investigation.

After driving for a while at highway speeds, the steering wheel becomes stiff, or “sticks,” making it difficult to make minor corrections. This can cause an over correction to get the steering wheel “unstuck,” causing the vehicle to swerve. Have not taken it to a dealer yet, but did call them and they have not heard of this issue. There are no warnings or other symptoms of the problem. This issue first appeared at about 12,000 miles.

There has always been intermittent noise related to steering, like a part needing oil, without a steering problem until now. Now, steering is sticking for sure. Entire family noticed it separately after driving. I googled, and immediately found your investigation site. Affects me staying in my lane.

When driving, typically at highway speeds, steering becomes “sticky” or stiff and more pressure is needed on steering wheel to make adjustments.

Steering is "sticky", with random resistance encountered, mainly from top center of wheel while making micro adjustments left or right and back to center. It happens almost every time it is driven at various speed. Williams Honda of Elmira, NY looked at my vehicle and determined it was not effected by the steering rack recall. So, I'm unsure what the problem is now.

I made an appointment at Klein Honda in Everett to have the recall checked out or remedied, the service tech told me that their shop did not have the tools or parts to fix the recall yet. My receipt states that the recall was performed and now my steering wheel has started to stick and jerk subtlety while driving and also parked.

We have noticed the steering wheel "catching" at times; this hasn't been severe yet but is concerning. It tends to happen more on highways as opposed to dirt roads, so the higher the speed is. We have an appt today with the local Honda dealer so hopefully this gets fixed.

The steering wheel feels like it’s sticking at times, causing the driver to over adjust when turning curves or even just trying to keep the car straight.

I first noticed the sticky steering back in November of 2022, after owning the car since May of 2022. The steering would become sticky, almost as if your were steering in 2 or 3 degree increments. I took it to the Honda dealer, Don Jacobs here in Lexington, KY, and they had it for almost a day, drove it and told me when I picked it up they could not feel it. I drove it away and it acted the same way, felt blown off by the dealer, as if I did no know what I was talking about. As an experiment I took the car to a parking lot and did a couple of lock to lock turning circles, and low and behold it quit. After a while it would come back, took to the dealer again, again they said they did not feel a thing. It has done it off and on since, I just do the lock to lock and it quits for a while. Have noticed when driving on the highway that it starts to act up quicker. Yes, Honda should issue a recall. I could see someone with limited mechanical ability, having it lead them into an accident situation. There were sometimes I had to really put way too much pressure on the steering wheel just to make any minor corrections, warning my wife to be careful and not over steer the car.

Power steering system making steering adjustments to left or right on its own. Increases with time and speed. When car is pointed straight electronic power steering will slightly jerk the car to left or right without input from driver. Repeated false inputs while driving. Serious safety concern!

I have experienced sticky steering and continue to experience it for over one year. The dealer was able to reproduce the problem. The vehicle has not been inspected. There were no warning lights, or messages. The date for additional details will be today's date for because the problem continues.

I have 28,000 miles on my 22 civic sport touring hatchback. For about the last 2-3 months the ability to keep the car driving perfectly straight has been getting more and more difficult. This is on the highway doing 40-70 mph and when driving straight and it almost seems like when you haven’t added any steering input for a few seconds or more, it starts having a slight but noticeable dead spot or sticky spot in the steering. It has caught my anttention multiple times now including everytime I use the lane keep assistance. The dead spot or sticking spot is still there with the lane keep on and it causes the car to not be able to maintain a straight line even with you giving manual inputs. In the last week this has become substantially more prominent because I’ve changed jobs and have an hour drive both ways to work. The dead spot, dead zone or sticky spot is now noticeable going around a corner if you are holding the steering wheel in the same position for more than a few seconds, today I had the steering wheel feel like it was jerking going around a busy corner at a 4 way intersection. The last two days have been much warmer where I live and after 35-40 minutes the sticky spot makes it nearly impossible to maintain a straight line while crying down the road and a lot of roads where I live are long and straight and a brand new 1 year old car should not be doing this. Going around the long sweeping turn at the intersection today was kinda scary feeling the same dead spots as I had the steering wheel turned. It is clearly an issue and I have seen all the other reports of the same issue. I will be taking it to the dealer as soon as they will see me. The problem is that there are no error codes or engine lights and the Honda techs are not driving the cars long enough to have the steering box warm up and start showing the problems. Once the car has been driven for a while it does it at low speeds too. Please help, I know I’m not the only one with this problem

The dealership service center has inspected my vehicle twice. The first time I was notified that the part was placed on back order and there was an unsure date of when parts were to be released. This occurred a few days after the recall notification on 10/19. I received a phone call from the dealership stating that my car is unsafe to drive and still waiting on parts to come in. The same day 11/14, I was given a loaner vehicle. 7 days later I was notified that the part had arrived and the dealership was going to begin repairs. I assumed that my car was going to be fixed. The dealership inspected my car again and I received a phone call on 11/25 that my vehicle does not qualify under the recall stated above. On top of that, they informed me that they were still waiting on the part. I am unhappy with the lack of knowledge from the dealership about the matter and the amount of misinformation I’ve received about the status and qualification for the recall. I have noticed sticking in the steering wheel for months prior to finding out about the recall. I would have pointed it out much sooner if I would have known how serious this is. Apparently it is serious enough that I am unable to drive the car but not serious enough for Honda to recognize the recall and pay for the repairs or obtain the parts in a timely manner. I am highly dissatisfied with the lack of ability to problem solve this safety issue.

Steering wheel sticks while driving requiring additional pressure to manipulate the wheel. It was checked at the dealership but was not replicated. Dealer stated they knew the issue was the steering system but couldn’t replicate it so they couldn’t repair it. The front collision system alerts and applies the breaks while cruise control is set randomly with nothing around. These issues have been around for a year or so

Sticky steering , feels like the wheel is stuck and takes a bit of power to move the wheel and it could cause an over turn or an accident at worst . It only has 66,000 kms and I just bought it and it's a touring trim and I don't know if it's one of the safety things Honda has added but I've never felt anything like this in any other car. It is annoying but could see it causing an accident when it becomes usable again sometimes it's an aggressive turn to unstick it. I think Honda should recall this and fix it free. It's an expensive car and it should not have this problem especially with a reputation like honda has.

when driving on a highway roughly 30 minutes, the steering wheel get stuck when doing micro correction, This feel dangerous. When this happens, A overreaction occurs, making driving experience focus only on that. Not safe.

My car has almost 17k miles and has developed a hard steering issue. This mostly happens at highway speeds and has occurred in curves. The steering wheel doesn’t move freely. To correct it takes some effort to make the steering wheel move then it’s a slight over correction. After the initial stick it moves freely. But occurs every time any movement is initiated.

Steering wheel is sticking. Takes considerable amount of force to free up. All components pass visual and pre-trip inspections. Advised dealer, no open recalls or WEP to correct this issue. This has been getting progressively worse.

While driving at approximately 70mph on highway I-10 (west bound) in the Pensacola area, the steering wheel of my 2022 Honda Civic locked up and became very tight. The car has only 8,500 miles on it and is relatively new. I had to turn the wheel hard to get it to unlock and the car went to the right, the wheel locked again, I then tried to recover to the left and had to turn it hard again causing an overcorrection. The car went into a slide and eventually recovered. I slid into the left side emergency lane and came to a stop. I was able to get the vehicle home but it appears there is a mass problem with this model of the 2022 Honda Civic. The steering wheel tightens up so much above 50mph that the car can't be safely controlled. This came out of no where and the car wasn't doing this before. I am parking the car and contacting Honda immediately to let them know what happened. There have been multiple complaints about this Honda model and others have reported the same harrowing issues. There were no warnings, nothing before it happened. I've never had a problem with Honda so this is shocking. In my opinion, this is a major safety problem that could result in loss of life or property damage. These cars need to be recalled and taken off the road immediately....right now! In my opinion I could have been killed or ran into innocent drivers. These cars are totally unsafe and it is sad Honda isn't addressing the problem. Hold this company responsible.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at 30 MPH, the steering wheel became firm making it difficult to turn. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the failure was due to a faulty EPS system. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and determined that the VIN was not included a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 34,000.

Mileage: 34,000

When going speeds greater than 50mph, the steering wheel seems to be sticking when trying to do small turns to stay in the lane.

When turning or reversing it does a weird noise, when driving on the freeway the steering wheel locks and it’s hard.

On September 17, 2023, while traveling at 65 mph on the highway, my car's steering suddenly pulled, resulting in a blown front passenger tire. The impact forced the car into construction barriers, damaging the passenger side mirror. Due to construction constraints, finding a safe spot to pull over was challenging, so I drove a short distance to assess the damage. Upon inspection, the tire was shredded, the rim damaged, and the passenger mirror torn off, with additional harm to the paint and body. AAA installed the spare tire. This incident wasn't isolated; recurring issues with the steering, including a September 22, 2022 incident where the car unexpectedly veered into a curb, had been ongoing since leasing the car on September 20, 2022. After the recent highway incident, concerns heightened when the spare tire blew out while awaiting a new tire and rim from the Honda dealership. The car was towed to the dealership, revealing extensive work needed on the steering rack and other components. Despite the car having only 11K miles, the dealership estimated approximately $8K for repairs. Investigating further, I discovered a recent recall, including my VIN. However, the dealership was unaware of the recall, and their attempt to address the issue did not align with its specifics. They stated that despite my VIN being included, my steering column is not covered under the recall. This lack of awareness, coupled with over 440 similar incidents reported for 2022 Honda Civic Sports Sedans, raises concerns about the manufacturer's understanding of the problem's magnitude. There is a defect with my car. Honda included it in the recall, should further investigate, assume responsibility and correct as part of the recall or manufacturer's warranty. Despite the ordeal, I am grateful for regaining control on the highway and safely maneuvering off the road without harm to myself or other vehicles.

A few weeks ago around 18k miles I noticed my steering wheel kind of sticking in place and taking a lot of effort to move, then it suddenly breaks loose and I over turn the steering wheel causing me to correct myself back into my lane, and sometimes it even gets stuck when I try to correct it. This now happens when I drive the car for more than 30 minutes or so, mostly on the freeway. I am scared to drive my car. Also now have uneven wear on the inside of a single tire.

Randomly while driving the steering feel stiff and sticky. After making a turn, sometimes the car will stay stuck in the turn and the steering won’t naturally straighten itself out. When turning the steering wheel, it feels “notchy”. The dealership said because I had a curb mark on my wheel that this was the cause and I needed to pay $3000 for a new rack and pinion. The wheel scraping a curb while parking wouldn’t do this. Also, it’s random. At times the steering is complete normal.

My steering wheel is sticking in center position. When you try to make minor changes it takes some effort and it over corrects. I turned the lane assist feature off and this is still noticed as a problem. This problem just started 11/13/23 that it was noticed while driving. I have 22k miles on a brand new car. it makes it hard to keep centered on the road where you make minor adjustments while driving with barely moving your arms. It feels like it gets stuck in center position. It does not feel correct. My son has a brand new civic also. We bought two the same year and driving his car does not feel the same as mine right now. Its smooth and unnoticed Please help with this safety issue before the steering wheel gets worse.

The staring feels like it has drag and moves in what feels like clicks it makes it hard to stay in a lane when going around a curve or even on a strataway

The steering has started getting sticky at highway speeds, which probably started when I had about 14,000 miles on the car. It does reduce my control of the car slightly. I have not brought it to a dealership yet to have it looked at, and there were no warning lamps or messages.

When driving at 70-75MPH my steering wheel will feel sticky or stuck while turning to the left between 10-12 O’clock . Feels as if the lane mitigation is wanting to correct my steering all while the lane assist is off. Any minor corrections while steering wheel is sticky results in major corrections and forces me to swerve. Afraid of electric steering failing at high speed and causing a severe accident.

The contact leased a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 30-40 MPH, the steering wheel became stiff and pulled to the right and to the left. The contact stated that he was able to control the steering wheel and continued driving. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring increasingly and had worsened. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the steering wheel alignment was performed; however, the failure persisted. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering); however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 27,000.

Mileage: 27,000

Anytime I am driving on the highway at normal highway speeds, the steering seems sticky. Sometimes I have to correct the wheel after curves. I notice it the most at 55mph+ during curves in the highway. It does not turn well or take turns well. I took it to the Honda dealership and they told me it was not part of the recalled serial numbers

While driving at a slight angle to the left, the steering wheel sticks. It seems to happen the most often going uphill at moderate speed, though can happen at any point. The sticking has varying degrees of severity. While not extremely dangerous it could be. It is a constant, unprovoked issue and requires that it be adjusted to maintain a safe line.

My car locked up the steering and then I hear a random noise and I don't have control of it so I almost crash into another car, but was able to move over into a stop sign so my front bumper got hit and I already took it into a shop to do a replacement bumper.

The steering sticked to complete super heavy to try to pull and I tried to brake and lost control and crashed into a tree damaging my right side fender and front tire. This car is unsafe putting my life on the line. EX-L civic is not safe. The issue doesn't go away it does it every time I go 30-45 and steering just stop working as in it stuck and heavy so I took it in after the incident and dealership told me everything looks fine they joy ride my car and didn't catch it so I told them to let me drive them and they caught it stating its can be steering rack which they want me to pay out of pocket for I told them warranty should cover it they stated not a defect just failure from my driving which is not right as the car only had 500 miles. I always hear noise of a tapping between the wheel and something else.

The steering wheel sticks whenever I attempt to turn it (be it left or right) while driving.

Frequently the EPS (electric power steering) feels “sticky” when making minor adjustments while steering at speed. Usually happens above 30 mph and sometimes can be scary as the stickiness nearly causes over correction in steering. After inspection Dealer stated my car needs new eps system. It seems like this is an issue with many vehicles like mine.

DCH Honda of nanuet 10 route 304, ny 10954 The dealership provided no photos of remedy to indicate any problems with car. They also drove 3 miles after I told them you have to drive it for a min of 25 mins at least. Also they fabricated what I said was my complaint which was steering wheel feels heavy. I said steering wheel feels sticky and I have to apply a little bit of pressure to make adjustments on road in which I end up over steering.

1) Steering. Malfunctioning. Yes it is available for inspection. 2) Had I not taken action my vehicle could have moved into oncoming traffic. 3)No. Only by myself driving it. 4)No. 5)No warning lights. I purchased the vehicle as a "Honda Certified Used Vehicle" in June 2023. The car steers fine to the right. When turning left its a similar sensation like when the vehicle shuts off while in automatic shut off mode. I have to physically pull the wheel back to the right. I believe I still have some warranty remaining but this seemed like something I should report.

Steering is sticking when driving straight causing overcorrection.

I have a 2022 Honda Civic Sport. After driving the vehicle for 5 or 10 minutes at 45 mph or higher, the steering wheel sticks decreasing the smoothness of the steering of the vehicle.

The steering on my 2022 Honda Civic EX started to feel “sticky” while just off center at highway speeds starting at about 11.7k miles. I’ve noticed it starts around low 40s MPH and usually continues to mid 50s MPH. It makes a kind of clicking feeling when I first start to turn the steering wheel for minor steering adjustments.

I brought my 2022 Honda civic touring model to dealer for a defective steering wheel issue and they said everything was ok. There is a recall on car as well. I drive 100 miles a few times a week and I personally feel the sticky steering wheel which causes me to over steer, and I don’t feel safe driving vehicle.

The steering wheel feels like it’s sticks. It’s very hard to drive on the road jerk from side to side because of how hard it is to manage the wheel while driving because of how stuck it feels.

Have sticky issue . My vin was due for a recall took it in . Like always "couldn't replicate the issue" so no fix was provided . Vehicle was not fixed just cleared from recall. All dealers are going to say that just clear it and say there's no issue . Something else needs to be done . They said my tint was causing the issue but I had the issue was before tint was applied . Has completely nothing to do . No rental was given . Waste of my time and money . My steering has completely lost steering twice already intermediate then comes back .

Steering gets tight over 50mph and requires more effort to steer.

Steering wheel is sticky. It usually happens when I’m driving on the highway at high speeds. I have taken the car to the dealer ship and they concluded that there was nothing wrong with it.

when driving, especially 45+ mph, micro steering (0-> 1degree or 0 -> 359 degree) when straight (making micro adjustments) has too much resistance and requires more force -I feel like I’m fighting the steering wheel. I’ve brought it to a certified Honda dealer, and the technician told me he couldn’t duplicate the problem. No warning lamps either. I just have to hold the steering wheel tighter & put more force when making micro adjustments to keep car straight. This presents an issue, as I was on the highway going around a curb, and steering got so sticky I had to put more force than usual to take my car out of the turn. A collision could have happened.

The steering system has failed and also the brake system. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The Steering wheel appears to be sticky, so I personally have encountered a few near miss incidents where I end up over turning because I have to use excessive force to turn. The problem has not been confirmed by the dealer or inspected by anyone but myself. Yes, there were warning lights as stated earlier. The brake system light and a few other lights came on after the incident.

Steering is sticky when driving above 40 mph. Mainly on the highway. The steering wheel sometimes becomes stuck when driving through a curve and doesn't go back to the same position. I think this can be very dangerous. Scheduled to take it to the dealership.

I have a 2022 Civic that I bought almost 2 years ago & I have about 24k miles on it. But recently, I have had a super stiff wheel/audible feedback when steering. It first started about a week or so ago but I've been noticing it a lot more the more I drive. It used to be only at speeds above 50-60 but now it's above 20. Weirdly enough it would only be hard/stiff when steering to the left but now it's both ways. I don't drive it in the "Sport" mode, nor do I have it in lane keep assist. It's incredibly annoying and could be potentially dangerous since it won't correct itself, even my arm gets a little workout just driving it normally. My apartments have a speed bump that's kind of taller than normal, but other than that, I haven't been in a wreck or anything dramatic. I assume it has to be the steering rack & column.

2022 Honda Civic. When driving on highway or residential roads even the steering sticks and locks up. Having to put alot of effort into correcting causing an over correction and possible accident. Called Honda and had it towed to the shop. ITS NOT SAFE. This has happened on many occasions, it just gets worse with time. Happened not just 10/18.

The steering is slightly sticky and makes some noises at times. It doesn’t return to place normally and will stay in place where it was last turned to.

I have a sticking steering wheel issue. It mostly happens over 50 MPH but has started as low as 25 MPH recently. I haven't driven the car in almost 2 weeks now. When going in a straight line and trying to make small adjustments left or right to stay in the center of the lane, the steering wheel sticks and won't easily move. I have to put more force into making the slight adjustment then I normally would on any other vehicle I've driven and when it becomes unstuck, then you jerk towards the direction you were trying to make a small adjustment. It feels extremely dangerous and happens a lot. This occurs with or without the lane assist on. It happens from 25 MPH to 50 MPH but less frequently but it's still scary when it happens. I called for an appointment on September 22nd, 2023 and took it into the Honda dealership on September 25, 2023 and they experienced the same issue I described and ordered a new EPS system. I have attached the receipt they gave me. There were no warning lights that have appeared or have ever appeared during this issue. They told me that the part would arrive a little over a week. I called back on October 6th asking when the part would arrive. They told me that they changed the order status to critical so the part would arrive faster. I was informed I would be called back on Monday morning. I called back Monday afternoon and was informed that they couldn't give me an estimated arrival time on the part. I was upset and asked for a loaner vehicle because it feels dangerous to drive and they told me they didn't have one to loan. I was then told that a sales person could possibly help, or I could trade it in. I was transferred to a sales person who listened to my issue and then informed me that I could trade in that broken civic for a new car and the EPS issue wouldn't hurt my trade value. I was extremely mad and hung up. They seem more interested in getting me into a new loan rather than fix my current car that I've spent 9000

The steering wheel sticks when trying to make small movements like changing lanes.

I reported the issue of steering being tight and sticking less than a year ago which opened and investigation from NHTSA. I had my ps rack replaced under extended warranty and hoped issue was resolved yet less than a year later the same exact issue is present. Steering is sticking, tight, notchy, and stays stuck at speeds above 50-80mph primarily to the left side steering. I took car back to dealership that replaced and was diagnosed with yet again a bad PS rack gear box and my extended warranty must cover it again.

On this 2022 Honda Civic Sport the steering will become “sticky” or “stiff” at highway speeds after driving the vehicle for 15-20 minutes. It will become very difficult to make small steering corrections, with more effort needed to turn the steering wheel, resulting in almost over corrections.

Steering is 'sticky,' difficult to make minor adjustments. Anytime I have to manipulate the steering wheel, it seems the force needed to free it is excessive. And if its bad enough, sometimes it will cause the car to turn too much due to the extra force used to free it. It's happening anytime around 40mph and greater.

Power steering is sticky

Hard to steer vehicle.

The steering wheel sticks sometimes

I have had this car a little over a year ago. I put 30k miles on it. for the last couple of months I noticed a steering issue where the steering wheel doesn't want to move (feels sticky or stuck) when you make a minor adjustment. you must over-steer or nudge it to move from the 12 O'clock position. In fact sometimes the steering wheel gets stuck while driving on a curve that I don't even need to steer/hold it at all (the car follows the curve because the steering wheel is stuck at an angle). this issue occurs at random speeds. I have experienced it at 2 miles speed, at 30 miles, and as fast as at 60+ miles. My tires have been checked and they are in great shape. I have had all typical maintenance done on it. when the vehicle is near stop sometimes you can hear a clicking noise when you make MINOR adjustments to the steering wheel. I took my car to the dealership and the mechanic confirmed the steering issue by test driving it. they informed me that they need to speak with technicians from Honda itself. Later that day they told me it's a known issue and they will replace my steering gearbox (ESP something) at no cost to me but they also didn't have the parts so I must wait ("on national back order").

The steering in my care has become "sticky" especially when you're driving over 45MPH. When you want to turn it slightly, you can't and you end up pulling and jerking the car left/right. Driving like this in the rain extremely scary and I'm concerned about overcorrecting and crashing my car going at high speeds. The steering is not smooth and just feels stuck all the time. I had to turn off lane departure because that makes it worse and I also can't use the steering assist feature since it just jerks the care left/right.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at approximately 65 MPH, the steering wheel was sticking, slipping, and moving from left to right. Additionally, the steering was loose after switching to a higher fuel grade. The B1 code was illuminated and displayed indicating the oil and filter needed to be changed. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

Mileage: 70,000

The steering wheel is shifting from side to side while driving and it will get stuck at times and make you over correct. It is a safety hazard because you have to pull the steering wheel the opposite way to get it unstuck. I have not taken it to the dealer yet. There were no warnings. I began to notice right after hitting 32000 miles.

The steering wheel sticks and causes overcorrection due to excessive force needed to steer vehicle. The vehicle was inspected by the dealership and repaired, but the after about 20,000 miles the problem is happening again. It is at its worst in a curve when trying to stay in the proper lane of travel.

Sticky steering wheel at 40mph up , car only has 20,000 miles. Streering was smooth until it started to get stuck (sticky) making it hard to control on high speeds.

This vehicle has sticky steering and very scary to drive on the highway. We have taken it to the dealership and it has been there for over four months with no eta on the parts needed to fix our car. We are not getting any assistance from the dealership in getting this resolved. I know we are not the only ones as there are several complaints regarding the same issue all over the internet with the honda civic dating back to 2016 but no one is being informed when purchasing a vehicle and steering is a big safety issue. Seems like Honda is purposely putting people at risk, and doing nothing to resolve the issue.

While driving on the highway at highway speeds the steering wheel seems to stick when trying to make minor adjustments. You then have to apply more force to unstick the steering wheel and then that causes the vehicle to jerk due to having to apply more force to move the steering wheel.

The steering feels very stiff. When going to up to highway speed, it feels as if it's slightly drifting either left or right in the lane I'm in. It's not centering and I have to make minor adjustments to keep it in the lane. It creates a very rugged driving experience as well as a dangerous situation. No warning signs or any of the sort appeared on the screen. The vehicle was no inspected by the dealership yet. I plan on taking it there in a few weeks.

The power steering locks every so often and I have to forcefully maneuver the wheel and unlock it as I am driving

Steering is sticky when I’m driving with a lot of cars around it feels scary

As a longtime Honda owner, I've had 6 other Honda vehicles, I purchased this vehicle for my son when he turned 16. As a new driver, he did not recognize the steering problems that I DID the first time I drove the vehicle and this happened :( This is very scary for a parent but I recognize he may not have known different. Soon after I purchased my new vehicle, I noticed the steering seemed "stiff". I would be driving the vehicle and would feel like there was no power steering. I would be 'jerking the wheel' in order to try and correct the steering. I would constantly be gripping the wheel in order to steer the vehicle, even on straight, highway roads. I stopped allowing my son to drive the vehicle because of my safety concerns. I would attempt to set the cruise control so I wouldn't have to be 'fighting the wheel' and after a short amount of time with cruise control on, cruise control would automatically shut off for no apparent reason. This issues happened on multiple occasions. I took the vehicle to my dealer, over 80 miles one way, on multiple occasions. I showed them video of the steering issues that the passenger took when this would occur. They couldn't get the problem to duplicate. Finally after the third trip to the dealership, they submitted for warranty request to replace the steering column. On the fourth trip, the steering column was replaced. This is obviously a major safety concern!

When driving above 50 mph my car steering wheel almost feels sticky when trying to first turn it. On the highway, I have had it get to the point where it almost feels like it will be stuck when trying to turn it initially, it had a decent amount of restriction that almost lead to over correction. No warnings or errors were flashing on the dashboard and no noises were recognized when it occurred. This is a car with only 28,000 miles, something has to be wrong with either the chip system or something in the steering column/rack as I have done nothing wrong to the car itself. The car will be getting inspected this coming week at the Honda dealership as it is still under both warranties. The resistance is more than what it would be if you tried to cross lanes without a turn signal with lane assist on. The resistance in steering will make for very VERY dangerous conditions driving in the rain or snow… this should be recalled immediately!!

Recently my steering wheel started feeling sticky. When going straight, the steering wheel sticks and I have to use more force to make the steering wheel turn. It does this turning the wheel left or right. This is especially noticeable at freeway speeds. It makes the car not comfortable to drive on the freeway. It makes the car feel less safe when on the freeway. This issue began about a month ago. I will take the car to a dealership and hope they can fix it. I hope Honda can come up with a fix for this issue. Thank you

my steering wheel stiffens and requires and extra force to move it, causes me to swerve and also causes excessive swerving. I’m afraid of getting in an accident because of it. I am getting it checked soon. Highly annoying and concerning.

Sticky steering wheel. At high speeds steering wheel gets stuck making it hard to stay in lane and unsafe to steer when switching lanes. Almost crashed due to it getting stuck.

While driving at different speeds, my steering has started sticking, causing over corrections that make it extremely difficult to stay in my lane. The stickiness first appreared early this year with the occasional stickiness and would resolve itself randomly. In the past month, it has significant increased and is now a constant issue which now includes a popping or clicking sound when making slights corrections. There were NO warning lights on my dash to indicate a problem. On my way home from a doctors appt yesterday, the issue became so bad that i couldn’t stay in my lane due to the over corrections. I immediately stopped at the closest dealer and said my car is unsafe to drive and they must look at it. This morning the dealer called to inform me that my power steering rack has failed….In my 2022!!!!!! He also said the Honda care package I bought for issue like this may not even cover this issue!!

•"BREAK SYSTEM" light appeared while driving and is available for inspection. •My risk was high due to the fact of "BRAKE SYSTEM" and "SEE YOUR DEALER" message. •Honda dealership confirmed of a gearbox issue and recommended not to drive it due to the fact that the steering wheel can lock at anytime during driving. •I noticed my steering wheel was very sensative and starting hearing a clicking noise during driving.

The steering wheel gets “sticky”. It gets stuck in one place and a lot of force has to be used to turn the wheel. This only happens at higher speeds (highway/freeway) or after approx 30 mins of the car being on. The steering is not smooth, it gets very sticky and really jerky causing me to overcorrect a lot.

While driving the vehicle at any speed the steering wheel will get stuck. I have to put some decent pressure on the wheel to make it unstuck, which causes an over-correction. It is scary to drive as it will at times pull me hard to the right or left. I dont feel comfortable driving it as I feel it will pull me into the other lane or off the road. I have taken the vehicle to the Honda dealership today but advised that parts will not be in until October 3rd at the earliest and that leaves me to drive this unsafe vehicle until then.

The steering feels so wired and sticky while Im driving over 40mph

Steering feels sticky and hard to move the steering wheel on high speed.

Steering wheel sticky, especially at high speeds. It feel like needs to break free when turning. Dangerous.

Sticky steering wheel at highway speed Noticeable at 35mph or more. Unpredictable steering response at high speed

I have the sticky steering wheel issue that is being investigated by you guys at the moment as well as an issue in my seat. I have had the vehicle into dealer ship over four times with no resolution every time the dealership has told me they have no reports of an incident like mine.

When driving steering becomes stuck and corrections have to be made constantly. At first it was minor but it has increased within the last several weeks. Sticky steering on highway and local roads.

Steering wheel sticks when driving. This happens when lane assist is off. Steering wheel jerks and locks up. This is a safety issue!

Steering is sticky when turning. It seems to get lightly stuck

Very hard steering at high way seeds (60-70 mph), when vehicle is warmed up (1bout 30 minutes into driving) steering becomes very tight, resulting in possible over correction problems. difficult to main in traffic lane.

I bought a new 2022 civic touring. As of approximately 3000 miles into driving the vehicle, I noticed steering issues at lower road speeds of 30-45 miles per hour. The steering was "catching" when the steering wheel was oriented at 12 o'clock. I immediately took it to a dealership and demanded they drive the vehicle and I told them the steering rack needed to be replaced. At first they agreed with me that the mechanical rack itself was the problem; however, after further investigation, they discovered the problem was with the Hitachi-made ECU (electronic control unit) with the power steering system. I waited 7 months for this repair. I demanded the dealership foot the bill for my rental car for the duration of this time, and they did. The part was back-ordered because it is Japanese, and assembled in China. It is a relatively advanced semiconductor microchip, hence the wait. The part nomenclature is "Steering Gearbox, Electric Power Steering." I have put 3000 miles on the vehicle since it was repaired, and have not noticed any lingering symptoms of the initial problem. Car steering appears healthy. DEMAND that the repairing party honors the warranty. This is an expensive repair that dealerships do not want to pay for, according to most forums relating to this issue. Therefore, they are waiting for Honda to issue a recall, which will never happen due to the low number of problem cases. Mine is the only case of this repair being done satisfactorily that I have found online. Good luck guys.

5,200 miles warning light steering appears and the steering wheel slightly moves on it own left to right .. right to left along (back & forth) with stiffing up .. all of this happens in a few seconds and goes away. It is random and has happened within a few minutes of each occurrence. I went on line and searched this other have had the same experience and I took a picture of what exactly appeared on my dash so you can see it.

The steering wheel gets stuck in it's place and takes lots of force to turn and get it unstuck. This happens after about 10 minutes of driving. This makes it dangerous to turn

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving 50 MPH, the steering wheel intermittently seized. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the steering wheel needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 48,000.

Mileage: 48,000

Steering wheel sticks at highway speeds then causes it to swerve when it does turn.

3 months after purchasing my 2022 honda civic, I started to experience problems with my steering. At first, I thought it was because it was a new car and was stiffer but other people driving my car told me it was not normal. I can explain it has a sticky feeling in the steering driving past 30-40 mph. It becomes hard to keep in my lane as I am always jerking it back and forth as it steers off and the wheel feels stuck. I took it to my Honda dealership where they confirmed it was the power steering. The part has been on back order for over 4 months now and they informed me it was safe to drive my car. Within 4 months, it has gotten worse and my arms will be sore and hurting after driving. It also started to make a clicking noise as I steer.

Steering sticks and “clicks” after sustained driving at highway speeds, especially when turning left. Once it starts at highways speeds, it continues at low speeds until the car rests for a period. The problem temporarily goes away but then returns when the above me tokens conditions are reached again.

The steering does not hold steady in a straight line. I cannot safely drive this car over 40 miles per hour, because I have to hold the steering wheel very hard to keep it from skidding off in a straight lane. even at slower speed the steering wheel becomes stiff and difficult to maneuver. It is not safe to drive on the highway at 65 miles per hour because the steering goes from side to side or locks up. Last week I nearly got into an accident on the interstate, but I moved fast and I got it under control. It all started at about 40,000 miles, with a noise and a very slight steering problem, I thought I needed to change the tires and alignment, I did, but the noise continued and as I use the car more the steering worsens. The Honda dealer ran a diagnostic recommending I replace the Power Steering Rack, costing $2700. Doesn't seem fair to me for such a new car.

I want to express my genuine concern regarding a recent incident involving my daughter's 2022 Honda Civic Sport. On July 4th, while driving her car after a brief rain, she encountered standing water that had pooled along the side of the road. Unexpectedly, the car pulled to the right, and despite her best efforts to steer away, she couldn't as the steering wheel was locked. The loss of control resulted in the car careening right, jumping the curb and ending up on the sidewalk. I am grateful that while frightened and dazed, my daughter and her passengers escaped any physical harm. We promptly brought the vehicle to our trusted dealership to report the power steering failure and assess the resulting damage. We were disheartened to learn that since there is no existing recall on the power steering system, the dealership contended that the accident must have compromised the power steering and, therefore, repair was not covered under warranty. I want to emphasize that the power steering failure occurred prior to the accident and directly contributed to the car's loss of control. The vehicle has a mere 9000 miles on it, and my daughter was driving within the safe speed range of 40-45 miles per hour. We made the conscious decision to purchase a new Honda for our daughter to ensure she would not have to worry about unexpected breakdowns or malfunctions. Woefully, as is evidenced through incident, that is not the case. With the gravity of this situation in mind, I kindly request your immediate attention to this matter. I believe it is crucial that a thorough investigation into the power steering failure be conducted, acknowledging that the malfunction predates the accident and that Honda is responsible for the subsequent damage and distress.

The steering is very sticky when driving at highway speeds, even with lane keep assist off. It requires excessive force to turn even turn the wheel slightly to the right or left resulting in over correction ice the wheel finally does turn.

The steering is now very jerky and sticky at speeds 65mph and up it’s hard to make small adjustments and it’s extremely hard to control the car. At speeds lower than 20mph the car makes a loud noise coming from the steering rack to the steering wheel. My safety was put at risk during a long curve turn I tried to hug the left of lane as much as possible due to a big truck on the right lane and when I felt i needed to adjust back my steering locked and I compensated so I did not crash into the barrier and this point I jerked in the right lane and then back out in the left.

My car is nearing 39,000 miles now, but around the time it crossed 30,000 miles, I started to feel like there was a bit of a problem with the car "wondering" down the road rather than easily cruising straight. It was a very faint/subtle sensation, so it was hard to tell what it really was and wasn't present all the time (usually only at highway speed). As time has gone on, this issue has gotten gradually worse and is now becoming a safety issue in my opinion. The issue is more pronounced now, and it is obvious that it is an issue with the steering rack and/or steering assist components. When driving, anytime that I've been travelling for a moment without needing to steer left or right any, if I need to put a small steering input (for example, on the highway just simply staying between lane lines) the steering wheel will not want to turn easily at first. Then, once you finally increase your steering input enough, the steering will turn, but it will very suddenly become "easier/lighter" to turn, which is problematic because the car will now jerk and it is impossible to avoid turning the wheel further than I need to or intended to. So it creates an issue of constantly swerving back and forth down the road and is obviously very dangerous. The best way I can simply describe this issue is the steering wheel "sticks" in place when it is held in a constant position, and then once it stops sticking, the quick change in steering assist makes the car very hard to drive without swerving.

Steering wheel sticks when I’m driving and sometimes locks until I put a certain amount of strength to move the vehicle

steering wheel feels locked when driving on highway, even after lane assist taken temporarily off .

I own a 22 Honda Civic that the steering has been sticking on so I took it in to the dealership and they couldn’t find anything wrong the first time, but then I took it again a couple months ago! They are saying that the part is on back order but they have had my car for two months. What am I supposed to do about this problem? The dealership is saying they know nothing about a steering problem.

The steering wheel is sticking. You have to be forceful to turn. It's very dangerous

As driving down the interstate. My car was on adaptive cruise as well as lane assist. It was like a nightmare! The car took total control. Throwing me from right to left to right to left and finally into a concrete barrier. The vehicles suspension on the drivers side both front and back failed. It was a nightmare you could not wake up from. I could have easily rolled the car over. And easily hit other vehicles. No warning lights or anything was on before the incident.

Have a previous complaint lodge, dealer replaced my steering rack about 3 months ago. within the last 500 miles or so the beginning signs of the issue are returning as this rack is also defective. Honda needs to figure out the problem and issue a recall immediately.

STEERING WHEEL BE COME STICKY AT TIMES. FEELS LIKE SUDDEN LOSS OF THE POWER STEERING.

Thanks for your support. The power steering is "sticky" causing to overturn and apply excessive force to get in to or out of a turn. I reported this to Honda in December and they diagnosed it as "electric power steering rack going bad. replacement needed" Warranty replacement. However, the part is under backorder and has no ETA since Dec 2023. I called Honda national and opened a case: 13730074 The vehicle was purchased at Rusty Wallis Honda Dallas in August 2022. They are refusing to service or replace the vehicle. I called them again today. The vehicle was diagnosed by Honda David McDavid Frisco Tx back in 31 Dec 2022 and they ordered the part. Still no ETA as of today. What are my options ?

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the steering wheel started drifting to the left and the right independently. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to continue driving to her destination. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer and had an alignment completed. The contact continued to experience the failure. The contact took the vehicle back to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the steering gear to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to the parts not being available. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 15,000.

Mileage: 15,000

While driving the car, I am experiencing a sticky steering wheel. it happens a low speeds but is more noticeable at highway speeds. The wheel sticks and when slightly turning it is causing me to over correct my steering. I have to be very quick because the car wants to jump into the other lane very quick. Then then going around larger curves, the steering wheel sticks and does not naturally rebound, again causing me to overcorrect. serious safety concern.

My steering rack has failed twice now, I purchased the car in August of 2021 and I have had a rental for over 7 months now combined. They are quoting July for the new part, likely replacing it with the same part that will fail again. Issues include: "sticky" steering wheel. Making it difficult to drive at low speeds, it is a safety concern not being able to make micro adjustments. Sometimes it pretty much locks and takes 2-3 lbs of pressure to "break" it free. It doesn't sound like much but when you're doing 70+ on the interstate it is incredibly dangerous. The first time it failed I was below 15k miles, then second time was right around 30k miles. The dealer has acknowledged the issue both times but has failed to replace it with a non-defective part.

I bought this car new from a Honda dealer in September of 2021. While driving the car home from the dealership I noticed it did not track straight and well on the highway - I needed to make small steering corrections frequently to keep it centered in the lane. Over the next few months I noticed the steering had small "kicking" motions and seemed to "stick" while driving normally. The car makes these motions at hwy speeds, low speeds, hot weather, cold weather, and sometimes when moving the wheel at rest I felt these stick or kick motions in the steering. These are subtle, mild motions but its alarming to have this happen and makes the car feel unsafe to drive. There is no pattern to when this happens - its totally random and unpredictable. I took the car in to the Honda dealer in December 21 for its first service and asked the service dept to check. I explained it was small steering motions and occurred randomly so they should drive it as long as needed to produce the problem. The dealers reported they could not find any problem with the steering. Since this service visit the steering "kicking" has continued to occur in the same random pattern since the day I bought it. I am a car enthusiest and have owned and drive literally hundreds of cars, trucks, SUV's and class I vehicles with manual steering, hydraulic power steering, and eledctric power steering. I have NEVER EVER had this symptom occur in any vehicle until experiencing in in th2022 Honda Civic. This steering prblem is NOT A NORMAL CONDITION - THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE STEERING SYSTEM THAT IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD.

Steering wheel feels sticky when driving

Power steering is giving an error code which has disabled front radar and adaptive cruise control as well as lane keep assist. Dealership is refusing to tell me in depth what is wrong with the unit but is insisting I replace it.

I was driving going about 35mph and the steering wheel locked up and it crashed into a curb. There were no warning lamps. The car has been in the service center due to the part is no longer being manufactured we are waiting on the part, electronic steering rack. A mechanic has serviced and diagnosed.

The steering is locking up/sticking when driving. Tends to get worse when speed gets up to about 40mph. This problem has been going on for quite some time just not been as bad as it is now. It is now unsafe to drive. Last drove it on the highway and the wheel kept locking up and car was heading off the road. Did not wreck but do not feel safe driving it now. I have brought it to the dealer ship when it was still in warranty and the dealership said it needed an alignment which did not fix the problem. No warning lights that there was a problem. Now that the car is out of warranty the dealership says The power steering rack needs to be replaced. Problem is they are on a national back order and there is no recall out yet so I am without a car until who knows when.

So i been experiencing my steering issues since the date i purchased my vehicle. I have brought my car in multiple times and the dealer has told me there is no issue with it. But for the last time i went to go get my oil change done and i told the service advisor again about the issue and they had me drive with someone in the car and once that person drove with me he noticed the issue right away. The issue was a bad steering rack and i already put 12000 miles on the car and it’s been like this since 0 miles and it was very dangerous to drive. Well driving my steering would not go around loops or turns very well it will get stuck which almost got me in accidents multiple times. And now i am without a car for 4 months waiting for a steering rack which is really ridiculous. This is a safety issue which could have led to serious injury or death. It is ridiculous because i took my car multiple times and they did nothing until i told multiple times there is an issue with my car. My safety and other family members that drove my car could of be really in danger because of this.

“Sticky Steering Wheel”. My steering wheel locks and knocks while trying to maintain lane. Steering wheel rack replaced Feb 23,2023. As of yesterday May 30,2023 I am having the same problem again with the new replaced steering wheel rack.

The steering in my car is sticking/tightening during any speed over 45 miles an hour. At low speeds around 30 miles an hour there are not issues. It feels as though something is pulling on the steering wheel. It seems to only be noticable during warmer time frames. I had my car inspected at a Honda dealership and they did an alignment and assured me that they did not find any issues. I've brought it up on a few occasions and nothing has been done for it. I haven't seen any indication of an error or warning light.

My steering is sticking when driving. Makes it harder to handle at the time when it is occurring. It started in December 2022 and it has started again may 28th 2023

Steering wheel is sticking/notching while driving. Occurs the most when the outside temperature is hot ~80 degrees or more. Most noticeable at highway speeds. Took vehicle to the dealership and they acknowledged the steering rack needed to be replaced but refused to do so until Honda issues a recall for it.

My steering wheel sticks, I took it to the dealer approx March 2022 could have been later date im not sure but the service techs and the service manager said it did not stick for them. I could no longer keep the rental car so I took my car back. It has been sticking ever since and sometimes you have to yank the wheel to get it to turn

Vehicle steering sticks and at times and locks while vehicle is in motion on highway and roads. Requires max effort to return to center and at times vehicle tries to follow lines on highway even with adaptive cruise control and lane departure system turned off. Very unsafe steering with almost a few accidents due to loss of control.

I also am having the sticky steering problem I have to overcorrect it gets stuck. It looks like I’m swerving and is extremely dangerous. It’s not covered under warranty and it’s a $2000 part on top of a 480 car payment a month for some thing is supposed to be a brand new save car Honda needs to be held responsible they’re still making these cars they’re still selling them they’re not recalling or offering to help or even letting other people know I drive for a living. This is a death trap. I am terrified to be in my car at all and any time. I am literally traumatized by this by the fact that I cannot fix it who has an extra $2000 laying around to fix a brand new car that’s less than a year old Honda needs to be held responsible for this negligence before more people get hurt more cars are total and more people are terrified. This is completely unacceptable. You keep hearing all these helpful Honda commercials no, how about you help the people that actually buy your cars that need help

I also have 2022 Honda civic with sticky steering or steering problems . The same ones listed in the lawsuit I stumbled upon while Teton to google what’s wrong . I have to fight the wheel and clicking noises while driving. I need it fixed what do I do and how can homda be held accountable for this error I wouldn’t be paying this high payment for an unsafe car I drive for a living . I need it fixed what should I do?

Steering wheel seems to "stick" in one spot when traveling anywhere from 30-80 mph. More force is needed to correct this issue which has led to swerving within my lane.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at highway speeds, the vehicle failed to drive in a straight line. Additionally, the vehicle would not immediately respond while turning the steering wheel in either direction. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. Additionally, while driving 70 MPH, the cruise control was erroneously deactivated and could not be immediately reset. The front driver’s side seat belt buckle would not latch and remain latched. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The failure mileage was 18,000.

Mileage: 18,000

Steering sticks while on the highway at high speeds. Small changes in steering results in a sticking of the steering and when the car finally engages to turn it exacerbates the turning. Results in a very difficult car to keep straight on the highway and overcorrected turning at high speeds. Steering rack in the problem.

About 6 months after I purchased this car in early 2022, the steering wheel began to get stuck when turning and curving with roadways. I took my car to the Honda dealership and was turned away several times due to them not knowing what was wrong. As of today, May 2023 the steering wheel getting stuck is worsening to the point where I am concerned for my safety.

Vehicle steering is not working properly. Defective steering components causing vehicle steering wheel to lock up. Vehicle steering locks up at speeds above 40mph. Please recall this vehicle and hold Honda accountable for this unsafe steering.

We bought my sona 2022 Honda Civic and 8 months later he started having sticky steering. He would try to turn and the sterring causes resistance and kicks back. This almost caused him to get into an accident. Honda delaership "repaired" the issue and 3 months later it started happening again while in the expressway! This time the car will be parked at the dealer for 3 months while we wait for the part that is backordered. This issue is very dangerous and its shocking that Honda is permitted to sell these deathtraps and no rtecall being issued. Please let me know what is being done about this issue as we are paying for a lease on a car that has been parked for a month at the dealer. Thank you

The steering is 'sticky,' making it difficult to make minor adjustments while driving. It's progressively gotten worse and I find myself afraid to drive at high speeds. Each time any move is made with the steering wheel, it is like it has to 'break free' from being stuck. This happens almost all the time over 40-45 mph, regardless of the driving mode.

I purchased a 2022 Honda Civic in the fall of 2021, brand new. After about 10K miles I noticed that the steering wheel was somewhat sticking and tough to turn at times. I brought this to the attention of my Honda dealer who advised that they could not get the vehicle to duplicate this. The problem continues to get worse as time goes on. At every oil change, I complain of the same thing, and get the same response. The problem is worse the longer I drive it during the day. I now have 43K miles on the vehicle and the problem is worse. I can turn the steering wheel to either side and the wheel will not return to a straight position without assisted effort.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving approximately 40 MPH, the steering wheel seized. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred and caused the vehicle to strike a curb. The vehicle had not yet been taken to an independent mechanic or a local dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 47,000.

Mileage: 47,000

Steering wheel sticky when driving

The steering gets choppy and stuck when driving for long periods of time, at all speeds. Steering wheel will not return to its original spot when taking a corner and will stay in the same spot if you let go of the wheel. This is not an issue with any of the driver assist features, it is a mechanical issue. It makes the car hard to drive especially at higher speeds and is unsafe. Many people have this problem with this car, and the dealer has acknowledged the issue with other cars but has said they are working on a fix. There needs to be a recall because this is crazy and has been happening since I bought the car brand new.

Good day, while driving home from city of Philadelphia on May 1st 2023 at 8 pm on rout 95 north bound for 1&1/2 hours of stop and go at 10mph or less, once we passed the obstruction of traffic (placement of new over head sign), regaining speed limit the steering was very difficult stiff like having very little power steering. I am 59 and remember vehicles w/o power steering. Once off the highway on suburban streets the steering seemed to be pulling me off the road towards driver side and a warning would appear that I was departing lane when I reacted to pull towards middle of lane seemed like it was way to much and quickly finding my self in the next lane over, (very scary) thank god no body was in that lane. Happy to be home arms very tired. The next day I read over the owners manual for I do not drive the car often and followed the procedure to shut off driver assist. While driving after disabling driver assist the unit came back on by it's self with in ten minutes and would randomly tell me to brake. I did google this and apparently I am not the only one. Currently have an appointment with the dealership that I purchased the vehicle from.

The steering wheel gets stuck/locks up and takes more than normal steering force to maneuver. It occurs at higher speeds, and makes steering feel choppy. It feels unsafe.

Steering System did not exhibit issues when first purchased, and now at 14,000 miles, we have begun experiencing "sticking" of the steering column. More info here: - Progressively worsening over the last two weeks. Is not associated with an accident, or other event. - Steering wheel / rack are "sticky" at any speed >20 mph, becoming excessive on the highway, where constant adjustments are necessary, as it does NOT want to stay true straight (not biased left or right) - Noise is audible while at idle and trying micro-adjustments left/right - When Lane Keep is turned on, the vehicle MOVES from the center of the lane, to bias greatly and ride the RIGHT line. If another vehicle is there, there would be contact. No fault codes, and the system remains on, even while riding the right line. - This is NOT SAFE, and more so on the highway. - There are NO fault codes being triggered. Honda does NOT have new steering rack parts available. They are backordered 6 months! There is no SERVICE bulletin available from Honda, yet, all the dealer technicians are saying they are seeing more of these all the time. The Dealer Technicians are advising that the car is NOT SAFE to drive, and advise not to drive it. Honda has no loaner vehicles available anymore. This is a HUGE issue, and needs to be addressed immediately.

Steering wheel feels like it’s getting stuck when going above 45mph, takes extra force to get it to move and when it does it jerks the car

My 2022 Honda Civic Touring steering wheel becomes sticky at high speeds (past 40 mph) and will feel notchy when trying to make small adjustments. My Civic has 15,000 miles and this problem began around 11,000 miles. It becomes worse on the highway or high speed back roads. Also when exiting a highway and the exit is a curve, my steering wheel will become stuck and I have to force it to go back in center.

The electronic power steering (EPS) is out on the vehicle. This failure occurred within less than a year of purchase and well under 20,000 miles on the vehicle. The symptoms of this are that the vehicle becomes difficult to steer. Even the slightest in-lane correction of steering results in over corrections and a "catchy" or "sticky" steering wheel. It makes the vehicle VERY difficult to drive and the entire drive feels like a fight. There is nothing relaxing about driving with the EPS out and the over-correction of the wheel is very dangerous. You must operate paying utmost attention at all times. This is a known Honda problem with their 2022-2023 Civics and some other models. There is even a class-action lawsuit against Honda due to this specific issue. We took the vehicle to the dealership for warranty repair, Honda did declare that the EPS system had malfunctioned resulting in a loss of power steering. They ordered the part and advised us that the part was backordered for THREE FULL MONTHS. When I asked them what we should do between now and then, they said to come get the vehicle as it was perfectly drivable even with the EPS out.

First issue was a major evap leak that took several attempts and months for them to repair resulting in having to drive around with a check engine light. Reason this is concerning is that when the check engine light is on the advanced safety systems are disabled. They had to replace the gas tank fuel filler neck because it was not closing properly. I was told by Honda corporate that "this is not posing a significant risk to the occupants of the vehicle", but when fuel is not being properly contained in the tank, and the safety features don't work I think otherwise. Now, there is a steering rack issue where at high speeds the steering is grabbing causing a possibility for overcorrection. Honda has known about our issues since June of 2022 and Honda corporate has been delaying official lemon law claims since December of 2022 where I then hired an attorney. Honda corporate is now ignoring the attorney and our only recourse is to file a lawsuit. I can't in good conscience sell the car to endanger the public. My only concern is that there are so many of these falling apart on the road.

Steerings requires minor corrections frequently, also it is not smooth. There is an clunkyness during slight movement and difficult to put steering in center.

STEERING WHEEL STICKS AT HIGHWAY SPEED (ABOVE 40MPH) It began with 6000mile on the odometer. I am very concerned about the long term safety. I understand Honda knew this was problem.

While driving close to or at highway speeds of about 50 mph or higher, the steering wheel becomes significantly harder to turn very slightly (within about a few degrees in either direction). When the wheel does turn, it jerks in the respective direction rather than moving smoothly. This results in micro-adjustments being much harder to perform, which are crucial when moving at high speeds, and introduce a much greater risk of overcorrection.

When driving at a higher speed I started to notice the steering wheel getting stuck. This has been going on for about the last month. My car has 12k miles.

I have a brand new civic but the steering got really stiff for example, I would try to change lane from the other it seems like when I turn the wheel its like sticking when im trying to turn the wheel. It makes me feel unsafe sometimes.

Issues with steering wheel at highway speed. The best description would be a “sticky” steering wheel. When trying to correct it, it won’t find the center as if the car needs an alignment. I’ve had this issue before an after an alignment and the dealership isn’t able to identify the problem. The “sticky” steering wheel would also disable my lane keep assist, since the system thinks I’m taking over. This has been DAILY for the past 3 months.

Steering wheels seems to stick while turning at low speed and highway speeds steering does no respond correctly when trying to do turns steering wheel will stick to where its moved and wont move back itself to original position. At high way speeds car is hard to keep in lane because of steering wheel feeling like it sticks.

The steering wheel seems to stick causing me to stay straight on turns at highway speeds. Also at other times feels as if someone pulled (jerked) the steering wheel from my hands.

while driving on freeway my steering becomes stiff it sticks and I have to push hard to steer it back the car steering wheel feels like it's stiff and stuck while driving on freeway I commute to and from work each day and by the time I arrive to work or home my arms are killing me from keeping the steering in control it sticks and it's hard to move back to keep the car straight i feel like i do not have control of the car when this happens, I have complained several times to my dealership when I take my car in for it's service 2 times they shrugged it off like i was imaging it and everything is fine with my car, it's new no issues they say, after i complained the in Feb. 2023 a week later I saw an a new article others are experiencing the same issue when I mentioned this again to the dealership they shrugged it off and said no issues with my car, finally Saturday 4/22/23 again i mentioned it showed tried to show them the article they would not look at it he wrote the issue down and when we picked up the vehicle after service they said yes i needed a new steering thing and it's on back order since others are already before me I said I have complained since last year and you put me off should not have to wait and put myself in danger each day i drive to and from work 160 miles each day i drive on the freeway alone in the dark and a single women something needs to be done about this Honda knows there's an issue and it should be fixed, or provide me with a new vehicle or loaner until it's fixed i have been complaining about this issue since a few months after I purchased the vehicle in may 2022 I see two states are already suing Honda over it - what can we do to get this fixed or replace the vehicle for a safer one so i do not crash if i cannot handle the steering wheel this could cause me to crash or someone else to crash this is very unsafe from a 59 year old woman who drive alone long distance commutes to and from work alone

The cars steering locks, jerking back and forth left to right. When making slight turns at faster speeds it gets stuck making it un sure that it won't turn back to normal position . It will jolt back to the center with continuous jerking. It's a potentially dangerous motion. The drive assist is never on. The car has 12,000 miles started a few thousand ago. It has been inspected by the dealership and a powering steering rack has been ordered. This part is on critical back order till at least July. In hopes this is the correct diagnosis

While operating the vehicle, the steering wheel sticks or hangs. This happens at all speeds at all times and the issue makes it difficult to drive and very uncomfortable at high speeds. Called Teams Honda dealership and they said they are aware of the issue and no recall has been issued at this time. So basically... just drive it.

Steering wheel is sticking when moving steering wheel/driving. Steering wheel locks while driving.

have had my 22 sport for almost a year, just about 18k miles, i noticed about a month ago at higher speeds the steering gets strange. when driving straight and making the little left to right adjustments it feels likes it grabbing and i almost have to fight it to get that small adjustment, best comparison is when u try to change lanes without a blinker and the car tries to keep u in the lane, at first it was only randomly on the highway now it seems to be with all higher speeds, it doesn’t do this at lower speeds. i have turned all assistance off and it doesn’t help.

While traveling home on a paved county road, I was approaching an intersection where the current road I was on makes a right hand, 90 degree, turn and comes to a stop sign where the road adjoins another highway. Approximately 350 ft prior to where the road turns right and comes to the stop sign, I turned off my cruise control in preparation of slowing down and navigating the right had turn. At this time, I noticed that I was unable to move my steering wheel in either left or right direction. The steering seemed very stiff or sticky. I focused my attention inside the vehicle, looking for any lights or indications as to what was taking place in an attempt to regain control of the vehicle. I was unable to regain control of the vehicle and the vehicle continued straight, unable to navigate the right turn. While exiting the road, I contacted a right turn arrow sign and proceeded through the grass and down a slight hill. Although the steering was very stiff, I was able to navigate the vehicle slightly right. I came in contact with an embankment at the bottom of the slight hill. This embankment leads up to the highway that I would have been stopping at if I had been able to make the right turn and come to the stop sign. My momentum carried me up the embankment and across the highway. The vehicle finally came to a stop in the ditch on the opposite side of the highway that I had crossed. I'm simply reporting this incident to the NHTSA because I feel there needs to be a sense of awareness brought to this issue. Since my accident, I have read cases of this same occurrence on the '22 and '23 Honda Civics. I suffered injuries in this accident and my car was considered a total loss by my insurance.

The steering starts sticking after about 15 or 20 miles at highway speeds it gradually gets worse and worse the car just hit 11,000 miles on the odometer I have taken it back into the dealer they said they cannot find anything wrong I am taking it back in tomorrow to drop it off

Steering get stuck while driving. Took it to Honda and found the rack is bad. Honda has had my car for a month and said the part will not be available until July.

It feels like a EPS malfunction. Will take more effort than usual to steer. For lack of better words it feels like "sticky steering". Started to feel this at 10,000 miles approx. As soon as you catch some speed, you can start feeling the malfunction.

I've been experiencing steering wheel issues for some time now. I've had to go to the honda service center multiple times and they could not figure out what the issue was. They had told me that it was because my lane assist was ON but I had it off and I never use my lane assist feature. My steering wheel felt stiff while I was on the highway and felt resistance when turning my steering wheel and this would only happen while I was on the highway and not when I was driving local. I've gone to the service center 3 times within 2 weeks because they could not fix the issue so I had to keep going back. If the steering wheel is stiff or "locked", it would not only endanger me, the driver but other people driving on the highway.

Steering wheel is sticking and on highway or freeway it causes the vehicle to be hard to steer. I have already been to dealership twice about it. This is an unsafe issue even with me being an experienced driver. Please help as I want to avoid any incidents.

* At times the steering wheel locks up and won't allow you to make adjustments in either direction while you are driving. The steering seems to freeze up. The steering then all of a sudden seems to release in response to you trying to correct the direction of the car. This causes the car to then jerk while it feels like the steering releases. It also feels as though you are fighting with the steering to keep car going correct direction. Very annoying and concerned about my safety. It is available for inspection and has been inspected by Pensacola, FL Honda. The first time was in 2022 and they found nothing wrong - despite my concerns and I feel the problem obvious. Problem persisted. Had others drive as I thought I was being crazy. In 2023 I returned to same dealership was told known problem. Electronic power steering rack. Part on back order until July 2023. In military and have to drive this car over 1000 miles end of May 2023. Getting run around from same Honda dealership and American Honda Motor Co. I am concerned for my safety with the drive I must make. Dealerships are independent and don't work together. American Honda Motor Co. independent of dealerships. Have to have part ordered with order number for try and get help from American Honda Motor Co. Was told to have part ordered by Honda dealership in Omaha, NE by American Honda Motor Co. Need part before drive of 1000 miles made. I have done this and now I wait. Concerned about my safety and others when I drive this vehicle. I have no other vehicle to drive. I saw NHTSA on 3/25/23 investigating what I feel is this problem. Risk associated with problem "which increases the risk of a crash and injury." Very frustrating such a rich company with net worth of $45 billion dollars worries about profit over safety. *No warning lamps or messages have ever appeared.

There are two issues that I want to report: 1. While using the adaptive cruise control on the freeway, I was cruising at about 65 MPH and my adaptive cruise control turned off by itself. My car began to decelerate with vehicles approaching my rear bumper rather quickly. I was not able to reengage the adaptive cruise control at all. 2. While driving on the freeway, I noticed my steering was not steady or stable. I would steer just a little bit to maintain my lane and the steering did not respond so I pushed the steering wheel a little more and the steering was sticky. So I pushed harder and the steering did move but it moved more than just enough to maintain my lane so I was weaving in my lane as I tried to make the corrections.

While driving straight or even turning my steering wheel feels sticky and has a clicking noise and also while making a u turn or a night turn the steering wheel gets stuck at a spot and have to jerk it back to regular. I’ve had many close accident incidents where the steering wheel caused an issue and it is starting to be a daily issue.

When I am driving above 30-40 MPH and I am turning, it would be easy to steer one way and then when I steer back straight, the steering wheel would feel like its stuck and difficult for me to steer back straight. When I am steering back straight, it feel like the car jerks and the steering gets stiffer than usual.

I've seen on forums many people complaining 11th gen civic having what's being called as "sticky steering". For a few months now my steering has felt weird. Lots of times when driving my steering feels sticky or stuck. Minor adjustments I want to make is troublesome. The steering wheel feels sorta stuck in place and I have to yank a little hard to correct it. There's is also a clicking noise when making these adjustments. The steering wheel makes like a clicking sound when doing these adjustments. My car sometimes has smooth steering with effortless adjusting but usually it feels stuck and sticky.

On multiple occasions, at higher rates of speed, namely on interstates - with speeds around 65 mph and above, I felt as if I was fighting for control of the steering wheel. Example, when attempting to transition to the next lane over, I would attempt to easily shift the steering wheel in the direction of the lane that I’m intending to change into and I felt the steering wheel fighting me for control. This happened on multiple occasions. It often led to an over-correction on my end, as it caused panic. Then, when driving, again at a high speed on the interstate, when attempting to guide the car through general directional lane shifts, again, I felt the car retaining grip if the wheel and what felt like fighting me for control of the steering. It became so bad and concerning, that I would no longer take it onto the interstate. When traveling at much lower speeds on community roadways, when engaging tight right turns, a clicking sensation was felt within the tightest portion of the turn. I did leave it with the dealership for a few days and was told they were unable to replicate the issue. I noticed though, that the mileage in and out on the paperwork was identical, so I’m not even sure if they did indeed perform any type of testing, namely road/testing. Without the concern being addressed seriously, I had no choice other than to trade it in.

Multiple incidents where steering feels sticky while driving greater than 20mph causing abrupt forceful action to bring back to straight line driving.

Shortly after getting the Civic in 4/22, I had two terrifying experiences with the steering. On the first I had to brake to let a car turn left and as I tried to enter the right lane to go around, the steering wheel locked. The second was on a twisty, curved entrance to a highway. Again, the wheel seemed to jam, and I had to yank it to avoid going on to the other side, this resulted in no grip on the road and I zig-zagged for a bit before being able to right the car. This continued to happen; but foolishly I adapted and learned not to trust the car. It was constantly dangerous to drive: the steering always unpredictable. In 10/22, the flashers were left on, and the battery discharged. All of the warning lights went on and the AAA person told me they would clear with driving. They didn’t. In 12/22, I brought the car to the dealership, believing they could best fix the warning lights. The dealership told me that the rack and pinion was bent and that this was the reason the warning lights were on. When I asked how an 8-month-old car with 1600 miles could have this, I was repeatedly blamed. First, they told me I must have hit a pothole. I did not. Then they told me the car had impact accidents. It did not. I told them these things did not happen. But they told me to put in an insurance claim. I refused to do this and paid them to fix it since I was now clear that the problems with the steering weren’t just something to adapt to, but something very dangerous. Despite my repeatedly asking for photos of the rack and pinion, the dealership refused to provide them. An added insult, they returned the car with a new knocking sound. I took it to my own repair person, and he had to tighten the bolts that they left loose. The mechanic told me that there was no way I could have damaged the rack and pinion unit and there was clearly something wrong with the manufacture of the car. All attempts to receive assistance from corporate Honda were frustrating and futile.

Steering feels like it sticks when making micro adjustments on highway speed and when it finally budges, it over-exaggerates the adjustment and you end up wandering in your lane or going out of the lane, causing you to swerve out of the lane. Been taken to the dealer 2 times in less than a month and was told they’ve had multiple complaints from other owners about the same problem and have felt it themselves on other ‘22 Civics but since it does not generate an error code when they run a diagnostics, they cannot do anything about it nor can they replace anything.

While driving my car at speeds above 30mph, the steering wheel starts to 'stick'. It feels like if I don't make any movements with the wheel for more than 1 second, it kind of 'locks' into place, so when I try to move it, I have to put a little more pressure than normal on the wheel to get it to turn. This is dangerous because sometimes when I'm trying to make small, tiny adjustments to slightly turn, the steering wheel won't move until I put more pressure than normal on it. Sometimes this causes me to over-compensate the small movement I want to make, and sometimes it takes longer to turn the wheel than I expect, thus delaying the movement. This is dangerous for both me and other drivers around me. I have not taken the car to the dealer yet because I just got the car 5 days ago and haven't had a chance. However, I looked the problem up online and have seen a large number of people posting about this, with an article stating that the NHTSA was already 'investigating' this problem. I just wanted to document that I am experiencing the same issue.

Steering feels sticky and I have to break it free while cruising on highway.

Steering become sticky, and becomes very hard to do minor adjustments on the highway

The vehicle steering wheel locked up and several error warnings were displayed on the dashboard. We had to have the vehicle towed to the dealership.

The steering is sticky meaning it feels like the power steering is not working and it makes the steering more difficult and harder to control. When the speed increases on the highway the issue is even more noticeable. No warnings pop up and no other issues/symptoms happen prior to. Another issue we are experiencing is electrical. During frigid temperatures when starting the car every car warning pops up and shows no safety and vehicle systems are working, this issue happened every time the temperature was lower than 15 degrees and now I notice a delay in my LED screen popping up when starting my car so the screen stays blank for the first few minutes of driving my car. Not sure if these 2 issues are related but it is definitely worth mentioning because I'm afraid an electrical issue or steering issue will be the cause of an accident.

Steering wheel sticking when driving above 30 MPH. Sticks to center while driving. Hard to start slight turns. Feeling of resistance on turn in both directions.

When turning to the right it has a little shake in the steering wheel

Uncontrollable steering wheel jerking while driving. At first I noticed when I was going over 40 mph now it’s happening more frequently I have took it to the car dealer and they said they don’t know what’s going on.

When I am driving my steering wheel is sticky, wonders left and right and I keep having to correct the steering it feels like the steering where clicks back and forth with no sound it does not drive safe and it is hard to turn the steering wheel. Yesterday I was driving on the freeway and out of no where the brake light on the dash popped up 3 times and the car started to pull. When I turn on the lane assist a different time the brake like on the dash came on and it pulled to the right hard. This is very scary and unsafe! I just bought this car and the steering wheel issues needs fixing very scary and unsafe to drive there needs to be a recall.

A few months after purchase, I was backing out of a parking area into the highway, and the steering froze. I forced the wheel to turn and attributed the incident to having inadvertently turned on a safety feature. I began noticing, then, that the steering seemed to "almost stick" when I drove more than 40-45 mph. I do not lose complete steering control, but steering seems stilted, especially when highway driving. The vehicle has been driven fewer than 6000 miles. I heard on an ABC newscast that incidents such as those I had been experiencing were being investigated. I telephoned the local Honda dealer and was told that the dealership was unaware of any such investigation, but would inspect the car to determine if the safety features were working properly. Before taking the vehicle to the inspection appointment, I researched the news article and found it to be accurate. The dealership noted that they were not aware of any other reports having been made of these experiences. The "head mechanic" drove the car and said all was well as, in comparison to other Civics, the steering felt as it should. It was suggested that I might not be familiar with the electric power steering that the vehicle features.There have been no warning messages. Although there have been no direct instances of near safety risks, I am apprehensive when driving at highway speeds and am filing this report for documentation of my concerns.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at various speeds and making a turn or switching to another lane, the steering wheel was temporarily slightly resistant. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure mostly occurred while driving at high speeds. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they had received similar complaints. The vehicle was then taken to a second dealer, Ohio Valley Honda (532 N 3rd St, Steubenville, OH 43952) where the mechanic test drove the vehicle and noticed the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 11,000.

Mileage: 11,000

Feeling stickiness of steering while driving with 60mi/hour speed even sometime it's back with less speed. Also, at highway speed car started pulled over towards any side and makes more effort to control the car. This problem almost 5 months before and Honda USA and their dealer have informed multiple times but no solution yet taken.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 70 MPH, the steering wheel became firm. The contact stated that no warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 400.

Mileage: 400

After driving for 30 to 45 minutes the steering becomes sticky and won’t got straight veering left or right slightly. The wheel often gets stuck veering left and needs extra force to bring it back often causing an over correction. Started at 22000 miles. This happened during winter months but the last two weeks during spring I’ve noticed it less so it may be related to colder temps. Also gets stuck in curves wanting continue turning by itself rather than straightening itself. On a couple occasions when the lane keep assist is activated it veers strongly to the opposite direction also need extra force to bring the wheel back to center.

While driving at highway speeds the vehicle wonders to either side and when trying to adjust the steering wheel sticks to that position making it hard to keep the car stray in the line. When it happens the cars feels loose and unsafe to drive since I have to constantly adjust the steering wheel and literally fight against the car to keep it stray.

The steering seems to get suck at any speed over 50 mph. I have to jerk the steering wheel to unstick it to keep my car in the lane. This is even with all of the lake keep assist off and no drivers aids being used. I am unable to drive my car on the freeway or anywhere over 50 mph. It almost caused me to crash on three separate occasions.

While driving for a few months now at 5K miles the car is having steering control issues. Where the steering is sticky while driving shifting from side to side and locking in a steady state while driving around a bend. There are no safety warnings present on the dashboard. Because of this vehicle issue, I feel unsafe driving my vehicle. I have taken it to a dealership to look at and investigate. They’ve told me the power steering rack needs a replacement. The power steering rack is currently on back order until July. I am hoping for a loaner vehicle, because I do not feel safe driving my vehicle with this problem still occurring. This could cause a possible accident that I would hope could be prevented.

Steering is sticking when driving for long distances or on highway. Trying to make small steering adjustments is hard and the steering jumps around and has a jittery feeling.

When attempting to keep centered in a lane, regardless of Honda's Lane Keep Assist System turned off or on; there is a pronounced notch or skip in the steering that is noticed when driving longer periods of time. It has happened while driving around town at city speeds also, so the issue is not limited to any specific speed. When steering on curved roads, it is not smooth and effortless and I must fight the steering wheel which ultimately causes an annoying over correction. If another vehicle decides to drive along side me while keeping centered on a curved road, trying to keep centered in my lane can be challenging due the nature of the steering defect not allowing me to do so smoothly. This defect causes unnecessary over correction and can lead to a car collision. I have taken my vehicle to the local dealership, but they have not been able to reproduce it and have told me to keep a close eye on it. "When the issue comes up again, please do bring it back. Because there aren't any warning codes, we cannot just order a steering rack for you. We must prove to Honda that the repair is necessary under warranty."

Steering becomes "sticky" after driving 15-20 min+ and is worse at highway speeds. Difficulty is maneuvering and keeping vehicle in lane.

Stiff steering, Having the issue with my 11th gen civic sport. Car wanders as stated above, when I move the wheel slightly in either direction it will stay in that direction and not return to the center without my help.The wheel also sticks to the center and requires a tad bit more force to move occasionally.

My Honda civic steering wheel at around 14,000 miles began to be "sticky" after driving about 30 minutes when performing minor steering corrections. While driving at any speed, the steering wheel has a slight resistance to minor corrections which causes me to need to slightly jerk the steering to go the way I need it to go. This then causes the car to turn to far and the need for correction which also is a slight adjustment and the cycle continues. The dealer wasn't able to see the issue but it is a great pain and possible safety issue while going at highway speeds. There are no warning lights or error codes associated.

The steering wheel sticks and then when your steer harder in the direction you’re trying to go the steering wheel frees up. It does it both going left and right.

The steering system developed a "notchy"-ness to it. The steering required above normal pressure to correct the direction and then "jumped" a little too far which required the same process to correct it. Almost like the car could only correct in 2 degree increments to try and keep it heading straight. Each correction was slightly too much though and required another correction in the opposite direction. This was at highway speeds of 70 MPH. The lane assist was turned off as it was thought that affected it but it didn't. After parking the car at our destination the steering was fine on the way home only to randomly start happening again. I have not had it checked at a dealer yet but will bring it in. Car has about 9900 miles. My wife looked at me and didn't understand why I couldn't keep the car simply headed straight. Have hundreds of thousands of miles of experience - its a steering malfunction.

I have noticed the issue happening for a long time and never thought anything of it. It starts out by only really sticking on the highways to now being sticky at all times of my drive. It will lock up and cause me to over correct trying to get it unstuck. I spoke with a sales person when I was looking at other options and he was able to feel it sticking even in a parked state. I am more worried about the idea of me over correcting on the highway and putting everyone at risk around me.

My steering wheel from what I can tell when it’s less than 40 degrees at speeds around 30mph and up gets to be very notchy or like there is a resistance point when I am driving on straight roads. It is not a huge issue that makes it anywhere near not being able to drive, but it gets to be very annoying as since there is a resistance point to push past when I make minor steering adjustments it causes me to oversteer which ends up causing me to have to constantly be adjusting the wheel just so i can try to stay going straight. It is especially difficult to stay in the middle of the lane when it is windy, or just in general bad weather. This may be unrelated but when turning with the steering wheel all the way either way it makes a groaning noise. I took it to my Honda dealership and they claim to not be able to replicate it. They are the only ones who i have brought it to to have it checked. They’re are no warning lights.

minor left to right adjustments at all speeds are sticky. this makes steering unsafe and there are a ton of people on forum’s experiencing this issue as well.

Since owning car, steering sticks sometimes as though the “auto-steer” is engaged but it holds the wheel in one position. More effort than normal is required to turn wheel. Feels like it is sticking. Happens almost always at highway speeds.

Sticky/not by steering at highway speeds. You literally cannot keep the car in a straight line because you are constantly over correcting due to the excessive force applied to the steering wheel. I will never own another Honda because of this issue. My 2004 cord ranger steers better than this car

The steering stiffens up (once the engine warms up) while driving and gives unnecessary resistance on initial attempt to turn the steering wheel in any direction (especially at highway speeds). It becomes very tedious on a long drive. I took the car to a dealership and they made a few changes to the settings but it did not fix the problem. They said they would need the car for several days and drive it under various conditions. They claim they had never heard of this problem before. I have a feeling they are going to tell me it's an intermittent problem and not a big enough issue to consider further action. (I've been through that with other vehicles I've owned) I would have to rent a car in order to leave my Civic with them.

I noticed that when I would drive the vehicle on the highway there was something strange with the steering wheel. I felt that the car would not keep on a straight path, but would slightly start moving to the side and that I had to slightly adjust the steering to keep it driving straight. I would also feel a minimal stickiness of the steering wheel. When driving at slow speeds, I would hear a click on the front of the car every time I would turn the steering wheel. Also, there were random times when I would reverse from a parking space and I would feel another click on the back of the car. There were other times when I would park and the park brake would automatically engage. This issue started happening around November of 2022, about six months after purchasing the new vehicle. i just thought that this was normal, until I began noticing the increase of the issue with the unusual steering problems while on highway speed. The issue has been confirmed by the dealer when I took it for service on 03/08/2023. They kept the vehicle and informed me that I could not drive it until it is repaired. No warning lights turned on to indicate that there was a problem. I'm concerned that this is a new vehicle that I cannot drive, and the manufacturer has not indicated an time when the vehicle will be fixed. The dealer said that in May 2023 some parts may be released for repairs of this issue, but that they cannot guarantee that my vehicle will be repaired by then.

I recently purchased a 2022 Honda Civic Sedan Sport on 3/24/22. It was a one owner vehicle with 34K miles. Upon my test drive I noticed the steering wheel was "sticking" and over-correcting. I mentioned this to the salesman that was along for the ride, we both said "the lane keep assist needs to be turned off". I have owned several Honda's, all with this feature so I know it can be disabled. Once I purchased the car and was driving home, I noticed it getting much worse at higher speed on the interstate. It was maddening! Going straight, without lane departure there is this constant sticking when any type of correction needs to be made. When you correct the path of direction, I have to push much more than I should to do a small correction but it causes the car to swerve! In any kind of turn, no matter how sharp the car does now allow you to "flow" out of the turn. I am forced into a constant "jerking motion" to keep the car in lane and not run off the road! The entire trip home was quite scary, not to mention I looked like I probably needed to be pulled over for DUI! Once I was home, I went through all of the safety, maintenance and settings options to disable ANY kind of Lane Departure Mitigation, Driver Assist or anything else (that's supposed to make the car safer to drive by the way) and it made no difference! I drove it again today 3/25/22 and had to get off the interstate because of this, as it is highly unsafe. I have contacted the dealership, I will be taking the car in on Mon 3/27/22 but after reading many forums on the internet, this is unfortunately a common issue of great concern, that has not been resolved as far as I can tell. There are no warning messages. From what I have read, when other vehicles have been taken to the dealership they are sent away with no corrections, as there are no CODES being given for correction. This is extremely unsafe, not for only the driver but passengers and other surrounding vehicles! The contact stated that the vehicle stayed at the dealership for some time while th

Steering wheel "sticks" when trying to maintain a straight driving path on highways speeds 55+ mph. When trying to do smaller micro adjustments, the steering wheel feels like it is sticking or clicking as opposed to a smooth operation. Vehicle currently has 9,500 miles on it. I am concerned that this issue could get worse if not addressed. No known issues from Honda and vehicle just passed Pennsylvania safety inspection 3/2023 with no issues.

The steering in this vehicle sticks at certain speeds and at times causes over correcting. Only when lane keep assist is activated it seems to mitigate the issue slightly. The vehicle was purchased new with no known issues. This issue has me concerned for safety.

Steering is "sticky" making it difficult to make minor adjustments while driving. Each time any move is made with the steering wheel it is like it has to "break free" from being stuck. This happens almost all the time over 40-45 mph, regardless of the driving mode (sensing on or off). With the lane departure system off it difficult to stay in a lane when minor corrections to steering are needed, in traffic it becomes dangerous and very scary when the car wants to drift into to passing traffic and the driver has to continually fight the steering wheel. This makes for a stressful driving experience. We recently bought the car used (Honda Certified), it has 36,700 miles. We took the car to the dealership soon after purchase with concerns about the steering & safety and they said there is nothing wrong with it. We have since taken it on a long road trip, highway driving becomes stressful with countless close calls with traffic in other lanes. The car is available for inspection upon request. We sincerely hope you can help us.

At highway speeds the steering is “sticky” as though the power steering has become disabled requiring extra effort to control the car. It becomes very tiring to drive it.

The steering wheel gets stuck or locked.

Mostly at higher speeds(55-60), noticed the steering wheel no longer being smooth, and now sticky. Not being able to smoothly move within the lane jerks the car. Im assuming it looks like I’m drunk from behind. At lower speeds it’s much better but still not as smooth as it was as before this started.

Steering gets "sticky" or "stuck" in a certain position when driving at highway speeds. Very noticeable on curves like on/off ramps where driver has to use extra force to "unstick" the steering wheel. No warning lights or indicators, problem began occuring around 3k miles and seems to be getting worse around 15K miles.

Steering wheel sticks at highway speeds, power steering does not return wheel 100%. Must continuously slightly jerk the wheel to keep straight in lane. This is unsafe as I must continuously swerve in between lane, and steering response may not be fast/accurate enough when needed. Many other 11th generation civics with issue, no inspection done, no warning lights/symptoms. Vehicle has near 30,000 miles and issue has persisted since between 10,000 and 20,000 miles.

I recently heard about the NHTSA investigating the Honda Civic 2022's for steering wheel stickiness and just wanted to add my voice that I experience this with my car. It gets worse the longer you drive in one sitting. Usually it takes 30-45 minutes of freeway driving to start appearing. The steering wheel requires considerable force to move and it wants to move in increments. As the drive goes on the required force increases and a noise can be heard from within the steering column when you force the steering wheel out of its stuck position and turn. This is a safety concern because the steering is unreliable. The required force to turn is variable, and there is a threshold of force required to move the car that would make a defensive driving situation harder to manage. I am making arrangements to bring the car into a dealership now, but I have little faith they will have a solution to the problem, as it requires such a long test drive to even recreate. There were no warnings or messages when the problem occurs. It first appeared around 15k mile mark, and has gotten worse over time.

When driving, especially highway, the steering wheel tends to “stick” and a bit of extra pressure is needed to maintain the car straight. It is almost continuous on the highway, not as noticeable, but still present, at slower speeds

The steering wheel will have a locking sensation after driving for long periods of time. I took it to the Autonation Honda in Lewisville. They said there is nothing wrong with it. They did not drive it long enough.

Around mid-March 2023, with around 6,000 miles on the odometer, I noticed that the steering wheel feel becomes stiff, sticky, and jerky - generally at highway speeds after the car has been running for some time. Steering Wheel takes more force than normal to make small steering adjustments, and this leads to larger, uneven, and sometimes unsafe steering adjustments. We have owned this vehicle since new in May 2022 and this problem did NOT exist prior to now. No warning messages have been observed, and this problem exists with the Lane Keep Assist Feature (activated by button on steering wheel) is On or Off. This vehicle is going into a dealership to be tested on 3/24/2023.

driving at highway speeds the steering sticks causing a momentary increase in effort to make small adjustments. causing an overreaction in steering. took the car to honda dealer and was told no trouble found . was told it was happening because of the sport suspension.

At high speed freeway driving it takes the extra effort to steer. It feels sticky.

At this point no accident has happened. The steering wheel becomes stuck or unable to move at times when making small adjustments while trying to maintain control of the vehicle. It also becomes stuck more so when turning at about a sustained 45 degree turn. The wheel becomes rigid and does not respond to drive input and has caused a reaction with over steering as a result when trying adjust to compensate for the sticking of the steering wheel. The lane keep feature of the cruise control seems to play a factor and after it has been used the problem is substantially worse. I do like to drive the car for fear for my safety. When taken to the dealership, I was told nothing is wrong and that it’s part of the vehicles handling. Not being able to control a car is not part of the handling. This issue is persistent at all speeds however it appears to be more noticeable at above 44 mph

When driving at highway speeds, not easy to adjust steering. Its like a "sticking" spot when trying to make small adjustments in steering.

First noticed the issue on 2/26/23. I was on a longer highway drive, and after about 70 miles I started to notice the steering problem. It became difficult to stay centered in my lane. When attempting to make very slight adjustments either left or right, steering input was met with resistance, almost like the wheel was stuck in a notch. As I pushed through the resistance, the wheel would suddenly snap free, resulting in an over-correction. This issue was constant for the rest of the drive, a little over 200 miles. I was immediately concerned that this made the car unsafe, as the constant sudden steering corrections made it difficult to stay within my lane at highway speeds, especially in heavier traffic. The snap steering that resulted from pushing past the “sticking” point frequently caused the car to veer toward cars in the next lane, despite my effort to compensate for it. My wife and 5 month old child were passengers in the car at the time. This would have been especially dangerous in slippery road conditions, though thankfully roads were dry on that day. The car did not display any warning messages or indicators. I ensured Lane Keeping Assist and Road Departure Mitigation were turned off, to verify that the problem was not related to any safety systems. But the problem persisted with those systems disabled. The issue did not occur during the next few days of normal driving, but it returned a few days later on a longer drive, after about 45 miles of highway driving. At first the problem mainly seemed to occur after prolonged highway driving, but in the last week both my wife and I have noticed the “sticky” steering more frequently in everyday driving, both at freeway speeds of 60mph and at lower speeds (30-40mph). The car has not been inspected yet. I was wary of scheduling a dealer appointment due to the intermittent nature of the issue, though it’s becoming more consistent. But I would gladly make the car available for inspection upon request.

I have been experiencing sticky or frozen steering at highway speeds since about October 2022, maybe at about 25000 miles on the odo shown. Today the vehicle is at 34000 miles and I plan to take it to the dealership where I got it to service or trade it in. I am leasing this vehicle. The problem does not happen at lower speeds.

Power steering is “sticking”, causing slight adjustments to the steering to be nearly impossible. This is resulting in having to apply greater pressure to the steering, resulting in over correcting at times. The problem has been ongoing for months and getting worse, causing me to lose confidence in the car.

I bought the vehicle brand-new from Balise Honda in Warwick, RI. After about 10K miles I started to notice the steering had become stiff. It's not really noticeable at slow speeds on curvy roads where a lot of steering input is required. I mostly drive on the highway and its almost impossible to maintain a straight line in the lane. When making minor corrections to stay straight, so much input on the steering wheel is required that there is an over-correction, causing the car to constantly swerve back and forth. At about 18K miles I brought the car into Balise to have the steering checked. I was told that they could not duplicate the problem when test driven. They seemed to have thoroughly checked the car out but told me it handled normally. The vehicle has 24K miles now and the problem has not improved. My girlfriend refuses to operate the car as she does not feel the steering is safe. There is no way that this vehicle should have such stiff, almost stuck, steering.

Sticky steering wheel when driving on highway speeds.

Steering feels sticky when driving 40-50mph, goes away for a bit, comes back again

Steering wheel sticks and sometimes requires more force to move or turn

Feel sticky around 65-70mph

Steering sticks when going over 45mph.

The steering of the vehicle sticks when driving the car on the highways and makes it hard to turn the steering. It takes extra effort from the driver to turn the steering wheel.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? - Steering. The steering has a slight stickiness at both low (<45) and high (65+) speeds. The steering wheel seems to stick and requires a little bit more pressure to move. Once started, the rest of the steering is smooth. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - No Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? - Just confirmed by me. I haven't taken it to the dealer. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - No Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? - No

Steering feels sticky when trying to correct the steering wheel I’ve taking in to the dealer but they say they can’t replicate the problem

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at high speeds, the steering wheel seized while maneuvering around curves on the roadway. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

Mileage: 45,000

Sticky steering wheel. Driving on the freeway it feels like the steering wheel gets locked and it takes extra effort to move the wheel

Sticky steering wheel. Driving at highway speed seems to randomly make it hard to control and turn the steering wheel.

I have sticky steering. When I turn it doesn’t go back quickly like when you make a turn your steering wheel is suppose to circle back.

The steering becomes sticky on the freeway, seemingly on a recurring basis. It seems to be 30-40% of freeway trips. It feels like a malfunction with power steering.

Steering seems sticky at some points during highway speeds. Noticeable when driving in a straight line at 50+ mph and have to make a small steering correction. Feels like power steering does not activate until after I've provided a noticeable amount of steering input.

When driving at highway speeds in this car the steering becomes "sticky". You have to correct it to make the wheel go back to the center position which can cause you to over correct and cause a wreck. Car has less then 10k miles and with this issue makes me feel unsafe to drive it. Honda does not want to help at all.

I have aligned to my wheels 3 times and I'm still having issues keeping the steering straight it feels like I'm floating around. Also when reversing I hear I load clunking noise coming from the back.

Steering wheel seems to be binding at highway speeds. When standing still the steering wheel also cluncks loudly when slightly turning. Making corrections at highway speed becomes extremely dangerous as the steering wheel will unbind and cause the car to over correct.

The steering wheel is sticky when driving on the highway and city streets. Its more noticeable on the highway though. The steering feels like its stuck and takes some pressure to move it even a little.

Lack of control when steering once the car warms up. If I turn the wheel to make small corrections it feels like someone is grabbing the wheel and jerking it. Scarier when my kid is in the car with me. It started at about 18k miles. I don’t notice it at all when temps are below freezing. I brought it up to the dealership service department and they said they’ve heard the complaint numerous times, but there is no known fix yet. Please, Honda, address this. This is obviously a major issue with an otherwise good car.

While driving my car on the open highway, I noticed that the steering wheel became somewhat sticky and resistant. This started in September of 2022 and the problem has become increasingly worse. The steering wheel requires excessive force to turn at speeds above 40mph, making micro-adjustments to the steering very difficult and causes oversteering. If there is a bend in the road and I turn the steering wheel, it sticks when trying to straighten the wheel out. It requires additional force to break the sticking point and get the car straightened back out. The safety concern is related to the straightening back out, in some cases it takes considerable effort and requires control to not over power into crossing the line of the lane. I also have concerns of a lock up and causing an accident that could harm me as well as others. Currently, I am not driving my new car due to the fear of an accident. There are zero warnings appears when this happens, so there is no way to prepare for it. I have contacted my local Honda dealership as well as America Honda (corporate office) to complain about this issue. The dealership informed me that the steering rack needs to be replaced. Honda is not able to provide an ETA on the part, nor are they willing to provide a loaner car. Honda told us that we could pick the car back up and continue to drive it until it is repaired. Honda is not concerned about the danger to customers. Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is pulling info together to file a class action lawsuit since this issue is happening to so many Honda Civic owners. It should not take someone dying for Honda to resolve this issue with no expense to the customer. We are currently making payments on a new Honda that my son is scared to drive. https://lemonexpert.com/vehicle-bulletins/2022-honda-civic-steering-system-defects/. https://classlawdc.com/2022/12/08/2022-honda-civic-steering-defect/ https://www.carproblemzoo.com/honda/civic/2022/steering-problems.php

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? -- Steering will stick after about 20 minutes of driving. This usually occurs and and is most noticeable at freeway speeds. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? -- When it really starts sticking and you have to apply extra force to make minor corrections a small adjustment can turn into a over correction. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? -- The vehicle has been brought in and inspected twice but they claim to have not been able to replicate the issue. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? -- No warnings light indications or symptoms preceded the issue. The issue started within the first 6 months / 12k miles.

Sticky steering. It is hard to keep the steering wheel straight as it sticks while the steering wheel is still. We have had it to the dealer already. It’s extremely hard to drive the vehicle as it constantly sticks.

Steering is sticky and requires force to turn from the 12 o clock position

Steering stickiness. The steering wheel requires excessive force to turn at speeds above 40mph, making micro-adjustments to the steering very difficult and causes oversteering.

The steering wheel “sticks” when using moderate to highway speeds. About 35+ mph and above. If there is a bend in the road and I turn the steering wheel, it sticks when trying to straighten the wheel out. It requires additional force to break the sticking point and get the car straightened back out. The safety concern is related to the straightening back out, in some cases it takes considerable effort and requires control to not over power into crossing the line of the lane. I also have concerns of a lock up and causing an accident. There are zero warnings appears when this happens. I’ve had my wife confirm the issue as well, since initially I thought I might be imagining things. It was occasional before, I fiddled with the lane keep assist and turn all options off, it’s only gotten worse in the last 1,000 to 1,500 miles. The car is nearing 22k. I plan to take the car to get inspected this week, but availability has been difficult. Dealerships near me do not appear to do inspections on weekends, only oil changes and standard service. I’ve called and been declined for an inspection over the weekend. Once the inspection has occurred, I’m happy to share any documents related to this issue.

I drive approximately 40 miles to work one way, 80 miles round trip. About 15 miles into the drive which is all interstate my steering wheel starts to stick. The feeling gets more pronounced the further I drive and never goes away. While traveling straight with no input to the steering wheel for a few seconds I will apply pressure to the steering wheel to stay centered in the lane and the wheel feels like it’s stuck until it finally gives way and now I have to over correct to compensate for the wheel sticking. I live in Minnesota and drive on slippery roads where having to over correct the steering wheel can be a dangerous hazard. I noticed this hazard at 22,000 miles and it has increasingly gotten worse since it’s 27,000 miles currently on the vehicle. I contacted my local dealership hoping they would have some knowledge of what’s going on but the stated they have not heard of this issue. There were no concerns of driving the vehicle but requested I bring it in for inspection. I have yet to make an appointment to have it looked at. There are no warning lamps or indicators associated with the steering hazard.

Regardless of the lane assist setting, while at speeds above 60mph the car starts pulling away from center and toward the lanes lines. The steering "locks" and I have to pull it back to center. It doesn't feel like an alignment issue because it does it to both sides and the steering "locks". I've completely turned off all lane assist and it still does it consistently. If I let it, the car will pull me out of the lane into the rumble strips. The steering is very jerky, it pulls away from center, "locks" the wheel, I pull the wheel in the opposite direction, it releases with a jerk and then starts again. It feels as though I'm trying to correct the steering of a drunk driver.

The steering wheel sticks while driving down the road. Seems to be worse at speeds above 40. There is a small catch / resistance from the middle position and then when you correct back the other way at the center point it catches or sticks again.

Car is around 20,000 miles, steering becomes "sticky" at speeds above 40 mph. Micro adjustments in steering require excessive force and result in over-adjustments. Stickiness becomes more apparent as speed increases. I have had this issue looked into by my dealer and they were able to recreate the situation but could not find a solution.

Staring at 40ish MPH, steering becomes sticky and slight corrections become difficult, at higher cruising speeds of 65+ this issue gets worse. Staying in lane can be difficult especially on lanes going from straight to curved. Sticky steering also fights lane assist which causes wheel to overcompensate automatically. The car is basically brand new at >5000 miles. However it is now unsafe to drive on the highway due to the steering being unpredictable and getting worse. Car has never been in any kind of crash or accident. Rosenthal Fairfax Honda ran Honda multipoint inspection and said nothing was wrong and claimed the steering problem was a feature. I do not think they actually drove the car and I am following up with them about the issue. No warning lamps of any kind, attempted software reset as well to see if it was an electronic issue, but no good. Definitely not an electronic issue. Issue started after lots of freezing to warm weather in Northern MA this last Winter.

Steering wheel gets sticky above 40 mph. It hard to move the wheel on short notice. It also feels like a resistance on the steering.

When driving Highway speeds I lose control of the steering wheel and it gets stuck at times. This is very concerning.

Driving at highway speeds, with steering wheel at center position, steering wheel tends to get stuck when attempting to make small adjustments. Once it starts to happen it happens at all speeds.

The steering wheel begins to stick after driving about 30 minutes. I will try to turn slightly to the left or right and it will get stuck. I have to add more force until it finally releases and I am able to turn. It become very dangerous when I drive on the highway and my steering wheel feels like it locks for a second. There has been no warning lamps or message and it has happened for the last 4,000 miles

On 2/18/2022, having the car around 36,500 miles, the steering wheel started "sticking" when making minor adjustments while driving on the highway, with no warning lights or anything abnormal. At slower speeds it's unnoticeable, but at highway speeds the steering wheel jerks while I am turning it to follow a curve in my lane. I took it to the shop to get the wheels aligned and inflated the tires to the recommended air pressure, but there was no improvement whatsoever. It feels like the problem is getting worse, and now it feels unsafe to drive. I took it to the Honda Service Center in San Marcos, TX, and they told me they need to replace the whole steering rack, being the estimated repair $3,000. They also told me they were going to research if there was any possibility that Honda would take care of "part of the cost of the repair", because "they usually don't find this kind of problem, especially not in new cars".

Unable to make minor adjustments when steering at Highway and city speeds. Steering wheel feel as if it is sticky/stuck until moved

The steering is "sticky" at highways speeds. You can feel a definite "stick" when you adjust in your lane or change lanes.

2022 Honda Civic experiencing a "sticky" steering or a slight jerking feeling causing the vehicle to veer off to the left or right making it difficult to stay in the lane especially at higher speeds on the highway. This occurs at all speeds with or without all safety features enabled. Also, a popping noise when turning the steering wheel. This is a very unsafe feeling while driving the vehicle. The local Honda dealership was unable to repair the vehicle today while in the shop. Honda cooperate needs to find a fix before a person or persons are killed.

2022 Honda Civic - Steering Issue This issue began around ~6,000 miles; the vehicle started providing a sticking and notchy feedback during mid-turns. This issue is most notable during speeds of 45mph. or faster. During a turn, the steering wheel stays locked in the position and requires additional steering correction to reset the angle. This is a driving hazard as the additional feedback required from the driver can cause overcorrection, causing the vehicle to exit its lane. Additionally, at low speeds, while the steering is in full lock (reverse and forward), the steering rack seems to make knocking/ticking sounds. The vehicle currently has ~13,000 miles and this issue has remained persistent since first observation. This issue was reported to a local Honda dealership on February 18, 2023 during a routine maintenance service.

While driving on freeway the steering wheel feels sticky and gives resistance. Car constantly veers to left and to the right. Spend most of my time focused on keeping car centered and when making the adjustment it's not smooth. It's jerky and feels like something is binding it. We drove 35 miles to our nearby Costco and I had to correct steering wheel 29 times to keep it centered. It's exhausting and worry that we could go into the next lane or off the road if gets worse. We took it to the dealer yesterday 2/17/23 to check on this problem our odometer was at 21,995. Was told technician was not able to duplicate our concern and when they put it on their equipment for testing, no codes came up and that nothing can be done unless codes come up when they do their testing. No warning lamps or messages have come up. My husband believes that this problem started sometime in January of this year 2023. The vehicle is about 1 year old and the steering didn't feel like this the first year after we purchased it.

The vehicle exhibits an unmistakable thump noise when going over a speed bump or while typically driving at low speeds over cracks in any road surface. Naturally took the vehicle into the authorized dealer, technicians instantly replaced the sway bar links, However the thumping noise from the front end over bumps is still present. A noticeable "creaking" noise can also be heard from the front end when accelerating and at low speeds.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 65-70 MPH, the steering wheel was significantly resistant, causing the vehicle to move from one side of the lane to the other. The contact stated that the failure also occurred while making minor adjustments to the steering wheel. The contact stated that the steering wheel would respond as needed after several attempts. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who test drove the vehicle and informed the contact to turn off the Lane Keep Assist feature. The contact turned off the Lane Keep Assist feature; however, the failure persisted. The contact stated that the failure was more noticeable while driving at high speeds. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 16,000.

Mileage: 16,000

Starting at about 5,000 miles I have experienced a problem of "sticky", "notchy" steering when traveling at highway speeds once the car is warmed up. Lately, I have also experienced sticky steering at lower speeds, but not usually before the car warms up. I took the car to my dealership service department on January 23, 2023. I was advised in writing that this is a known issue and that a Honda engineer is looking in to the issue. I have seen hundreds of fellow 2022 Honda Civic owners reporting the same exact symptoms on the 11th generation Civic forum. I feel like there is no way that driving the car with this defect is safe or as safe as driving a car with steering that works correctly.

Sticky steering at highways speeds. Doesn’t feel safe on highway. Issue started at around 17k mileage.

Steering wheel sticking when trying to make small correction. Gets worse the longer you drive, making it harder to steer. Wipers only spray fluid at higest vertical stroke, passenger side never clean, only half of driver side clean, hard to see on long drives.

The steering sticks all the time. It seems the feature that allows the car to stay in the lane continues to be activated even though it is deactivated. This is a serious safety issues. When you are driving at high speeds and the steering sticks it causes the car to jerk when you have to put more force into turning the steering wheel. This issue is all over the internet and on Civic forums. It needs to be addressed immediately.

Steering sticks when going highway speeds. Makes it difficult to make slight adjustments. Have to apply excessive force to make it break free causing the car to over steer in most cases and swerve.

I purchased my 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport in November of 2021. I currently have 7,000 miles on my vehicle. 2 months ago, I noticed a slight sticky feeling with my steering wheel. This almost feels like I am in a constant rut and having to make slight but hard pulls at the steering wheel to make any small adjustment. This occurs when I am going roughly 40 miles per hour or higher. At first, it felt like my LKA was on but when I saw that it wasn’t it brought concern. I had a moment a couple of weeks ago where my steering wheel almost ran my husband and I into the right lane. I am worried since there have been multiple reports of others having this same issue and it got worse. I also had a moment on December 31st, 2022 where my car was put into adaptive cruise control around 70 mph and was shut off suddenly. I was not given the option to reengage the cruise control until after my car was turned off and on again. My car is currently at the dealership for these issues as we speak and my technician has said they don’t feel what I am talking about. This has made me feel unsafe to drive my vehicle and hope this complaint can join the others and help Honda send out a recall for this issue. 169 complaints about that same thing on here is a big deal. So is the thousands of Reddit threads I have found stating this same problem. Please Honda, do better and call this in or unfortunately you will be met with a lot of lawsuits I am afraid.

Steering has become jerky/sticky. It no longer feels safe to drive, and most of my time on the road is focused on staying in my lane without jerking the car left or right. Please help us fix this. I know I'm not the only one.

The steering has an issue with "sticking." When driving, I constantly feel little "jerks" as if the steering wants to correct itself, prompting me to constantly re-correct. The jerks are relatively small and so I haven't been worried about safety, but after dealing with this for many months and hoping it would go away (it hasn't) I'm finally registering this issue.

The Steering feels very sticky after 17k miles and it’s getting worse, it occurs typically during highway speeds, also the lane assist feature is affected greatly by this as it does not work due to the steering having this “sticky” feel to it. moderate to overcorrection of the steering wheel is required while operating the vehicle, this has caused constant swaying putting not only myself at risk but others especially while commuting daily. I feel as though my safety is at dire risk. Dealerships are no help as they say nothing can be done unless a code is popping up, but anyone in the car world knows that steering problems do not Have a particular code of warning. Please investigate the matter ASAP as this could cause a serious life risk

The steering is sticky. It feels very unsafe when the car pulls to the left and right and you have to forcibly pull the wheel in the opposite direction.

DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM: At highway speeds (above 55 mph) the steering gets seems to stick or catch. When driving straight and making the little left to right adjustments it feels likes it grabbing and I have to tug it to get that small adjustment. It feels as though the Electronic Steering Control is failing or the rack is damage. The car has not been in an accident. HOW IS THIS A HAZARD: Tugging on the wheel at highway speeds causes me to over correct which could send me into the path of another vehicle. REPRODUCED BY OTHERS: There are dozens of owners that have reported this problem on the Civic Owners Social media platform. https://www.civic11forum.com/threads/steering.1894/ DEALER CONTACT Local dealer claims nothing reported. No known recall for item. WARNINGS: There are no warning lights or messages indicating an electronic malfunction. The contact stated that the dealership told them that the parts were not expected to be available for another 5 months. The contact was given a loaner car. The contact offered to trade that vehicle in but was not given a good deal. The contact decided to take back the defective vehicle and buy a new one elsewhere.

I HAVE A 2022 HONDA CIVIC SEDAN. ESTIMATED MILEAGE IS AROUND 36K. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR INTO THE SHOP AROUND 32K, AND REPORTED THAT THE STEERING IS STICKY AND WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT, IT LIKE LOCKS AND YOU HAVE TO JERK THE THE WHEEL TO GET IT. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE, AND MAKING THE STEERING UNMANAGEABLE AT TIMES. I HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES, AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE CAR THROWS A CODE. THIS IS A STEERING ISSUE, I DO NOT THINK THAT IT WILL THROW A CODE. I HAVE CHILDREN, AND WE ARE STARTING TO FEEL UNSAFE IN THIS CAR. I NEED THIS ISSUE FIXED, AND SINCE THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT WILLING TO HELP ME, I CAM TO NHTSA. I FOLLOW AN ONLINE FORUM FOR 11TH GENERATION HONDA CIVIC AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT STICKY STEERING IN THESE CARS, BUT NO ONE IS ADDRESSING THE ISSUE. ALSO, WE FOUND THAT MIGLIACCIO & RATHOD LLP IS CURRENLTY INVESTIGATING THE 2022 HONDA CIVIC STEERING DEFECT. THEY SAY THAT 2022 HONDA CIVIC OWNERS REPORT THAT THE STEERING IN THEIR VEHICLES FEELS STICKY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO TURN THE WHEEL, EVEN IN CITY DRIVING. CAN NHTSA PLEASE HELP US IN GETTING THIS ISSUE FIXED. WE PAY FOR THESE BRAND NEW CARS NOT TO HAVE DEFECTS THAT THE DEALERSHIPS WILL NOT FIX. LIKE I SAID, I HAVE CHILDREN, AND IT IS GETTING UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. THANK YOU.

At approximately 23k miles while driving to work on the highway, I felt like my car’s power steering kept getting stuck and I had to constantly try to re-steer my vehicle to keep it driving in a straight line. At first I didnt think much of the issue but now my car has 26k miles and the issue is getting worse. The steering seems to be sticking well driving in a straight line, and as you pull on the wheel, it will suddenly almost feel like it’s clicking then move. This is extremely unsafe and I have noticed that this same issue has been reported by hundreds of Honda Civic owners. At the moment there is not a recall for this but I hope it that Honda takes action ASAP. I have yet to take my car to the dealership but I have made an appointment to take it to the dealership this upcoming week.

“Sticky” sensation/feedback when making minor correction to steering on highways/speeds greater than about 40mph. Needing to make slight corrections to stay in lane the steering requires extra force to “unstick” the steering wheel causing an over-correction. This posses potential safety issue to driver, passengers, and other motorists in the road. Began a few months after purchasing the vehicle in November 2021 and has been an issue ever since.

When driving straight, especially on the highway, the steering feels “sticky” or “notchy” especially from 50 - 75 mph. This makes it really hard to keep the vehicle straight on the highway.

Occasional unusual resistance in steering wheel, leading to moderate over-corrections. There is often resistance to moving the wheel from center, and when the resistance releases, the wheel moves more than what was desired, leading to over-correction. This causes swerving and is a hazard.

Sterring is sticking. Worse when turning and at higher speeds. Also sticks when driving straight. You have to drive it for a few miles before it starts doing it.

Steering is very notchy when turning from neutral position. When driving at highway speeds extra effort is required to turn either right or left from the neutral position. The steering is not operating smoothly it is as if it was binding during any turn. The steering requires more force than normal to initiate the turn. It appears to be getting worse over time and has been this way since purchasing new in 04/22.

After about an hour of highway driving the steering becomes sticky or notchy feeling. This is both with lane keep assist on and off. It can be hard to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line at highway speeds.

After a short time driving close to highway speeds (50+) the steering becomes jerky/sticky. Extra effort is required to make small adjustments in direction making it difficult to maintain the car in the center of the lane. No warning lights or messages appear. I have not taken the car to the dealer yet. Multiple people on the civic11forum.com are reporting the same issue.

On Friday January 27th, I was driving approximately 65mph when the steering wheel got stuck to the right, causing me to run off the road. I hit a rut where the road meets the grass and it caused a couple of my wheel weights to fall off. Initially the lane keep was on, but I turned it off as it started pulling to the right. The car still proceeded to pull continuously until I cut it off, and then started to appear to work normally for a short period afterwards. The steering wheel already sticks in the center on most days. Now, there’s issues stopping, I’m guessing from the rut I hit. The dealer that I bought it from swears that there’s nothing wrong with the vehicle and that I’m just a difficult customer. I’ve already had it up to the dealership 5 times. There’s 88 other people already who agree with me. I have a case with American Honda Corporate, but they only agree with what the dealer tells them. This poses a major safety hazard, and it needs to be recalled before someone gets killed.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the steering wheel was difficult to turn in either direction. The local dealer and manufacturer were notified of the failure and a service appointment was scheduled. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The failure mileage was 25,000.

Mileage: 25,000

Particularly when traveling at highway speeds, steering wheel feels sticky or stiff. This makes it hard to make subtle steering changes, as extra force is required to adjust direction, so car jerks one direction or another. This feels very unsafe, and does not give me confidence that I am in full control of my vehicle at high speeds, especially when traveling on congested highways. I did not experience this when I first purchased the car approximately 12 months ago. I would say the issue began about 2-3 months ago. There have been no warning signs or anything else.

The steering wheel has been sticky while operating the vehicle. The mechanics at Honda continue to state they see no issues with the car however the steering wheel locks and becomes difficult to maneuver while driving on roads and highways . The car system shows all operations are performing perfect. However while driving it’s stiff and difficult to make driving adjustments safely

Steering sticks and causes over reaction to minor corrections while driving. Took to dealer and they say they can’t find anything wrong.

Brakes are relatively hard to press and bring the car to stop, the pedal is also located high, and as an Uber driver it makes it difficult to brake constantly. I am getting knee pain and foot pain. Driver seat is very uncomfortable specially when driving for too long. It doesn't have lumbar support and is giving me lower back pain, my back compresses down and collapses into the section where there's no lumbar support. I feel like my disk is getting hurt. The seat is built in an angel. if I bring the seat low, my last bone of spine goes into the seat and hurts. if I bring the seat high, I get hip pain. The steering is somehow stiff to rotate even with lane departure being turned off. I am getting finger joint pain and elbow pain.

I'm a 40 YEAR auto tech , steering is notchy when driving straight ,constantly fighting to keep vehicle in my lane, in my opinion it needs a new steering rack and pinion

•steering feels sticky or jerky like lane assist is engaging, but this car doesn’t have lane assist. Takes effort to keep car in lane. Steering shakes/shudders •car veers out of lane •dealer has not inspected car yet-other mechanic thought it could be alignment but that checked out ok •no other inspections performed •no warning lights

Steering wheel becomes stiff after a few minutes of driving. It feels sticky and it is hard to make small adjustments when driving in a straight line. Problem is noticeably worse at higher speeds. This has been happening for the last two months. Car has only 9000 miles.

My steering wheel started jerking to the right when at about 40mph when it does this it feels like i loose steering briefly , dealer gave me the same ol routine answer cant duplicate problem so i started searching up info came across the 11th Generation civic forum and there are so many of the same complaints and some dealerships are fixing the problem ( steering rack) and some are getting told the same thing as i am!

1700 miles In the odo . Steering feels as if it gets stuck on high way speeds . Having to force it to keep the steering in the center . Definitely not normal . Started noticing it about 1500 on the odo only getting worse. Almost feels like the car is not aligned . Properly . Brand new car not staying straight is a concern of steering rack issues . Common for this car . Scared to report it to dealer they are only going to submit papers and say is completely Normal . Waste of time . This should be a recall

steering wheel feels jerky, it has a mind of its own. even if driving straight it will move without me moving it.

Steering wheel seems to get stiff and lock into center at highway speeds, causing to push hard on steering wheel to do minor corrections, car feels incredibly unsafe at highway speeds constantly having to fight the steering wheel. Many other drivers have this issue in forums. Dealer says they don’t know how to fix that.

My steering wheel keeps sticking and u have to jerk the steering wheel to correct it. It happens multiple times daily

At highway speeds, steering sticks and requires excessive force to break resistance and provide input. This makes it difficult to make small corrections and causes swerving within the lane.

Sticky steering, drifting steering, hard to keep in a straight line. This is an ongoing problem which I first noticed in late November after having the car for several months. It seems to be getting worse. I took it to the dealer they said that it is normal, but I wonder how it could possibly be normal.

Steering wheel sticking after 2nd oil change 9,000 miles. on the highway and speeds over 45mph the steering wheel will stick and require force to move it from its position. It is not subtle and smooth like every car I’ve driven before. A recall is I order for this steering column. Please look at all the other similar complaints on 2022 civics.

While driving for some time the steering feels notchy like it takes more effort than normal to steer from center (only occurs for the first 5-10 degrees either direction from center). This usually becomes noticeable when driving around 30+ minutes over 35MPH, and it causes LKAS to struggle to keep the car center in the lane. Definitely a safety hazard and seeing as there are a TON of others having this same issue across all trims levels. Does not prevent me from driving but is a potentially hazardous issue if it becomes worse than it is.

The car has 18K mikes and the steering sticks after driving for 30 minutes or so. It takes a slight jerk to get it unstuck and is a dangerous issue. It happens at highway speeds and slower speeds as well.

The steering seems to be sticking well driving in a straight line, and as you pull on the wheel, it will suddenly almost feel like it’s clicking then move. I have seen many forums online of the same complaints and Honda is doing nothing about it. This is my daughters car and I want it to be safe. That’s why I bought a new one. I was driving the car last night and it’s seems very dangerous. The car only has 4600 miles on it and it’s extremely noticeable.

There are issues with steering possible lane assist. I took it to Honda to be accessed, initially the rep tried to tell me there was nothing wrong/ didn’t understand the issues I was having. Then I was told it was a small hose that was constantly triggering lane assist feature and that they needed to take the dash apart and install this part they claim they special ordered. I left my car at the service center for several days. They reported they had replaced defective part And the issue had been resolved however, It’s been 2 weeks and the car is worse than before. The steering wheel is stiffer than before and makes a clicking sound when turning any direction. I’m afraid of an accident because the issue forces the driver to constantly. The service guy claimed it’s not dangerous just something annoying. I feel frustrated because this shouldn’t be happening with a car that I just 1 year old

While driving my car on the highway I'm noticing that my steering wheel often gets stuck if I've been driving straight for a while. When I feel it get stuck I have to apply pressure or pull it to get it to move. Sometimes when it gets stuck and I try to move it slightly it feels like the car is drifting off into the next lane. Almost as if the car is fighting me a bit. For example I will try to move it to the right but it gets stuck and goes to the left. This is very dangerous sometimes I get scared thinking what if it doesn't move one day and I crash into something or someone. It is very unsafe!

While driving the 2022 Civic Touring there is a noticeable stickiness to the steering almost as if the wheel will look up while trying to drive straight and pull the car to different sides of the road. Its almost like the first 5 degrees right or left are not registered, causing it to lock up. It originally was while driving straight mainly highway miles. Now it’s becoming noticeable during day to day driving and turning. This is very unsafe considering the car can turn and steering wheel will not allow the driver to automatically correct because it is locked up. If you go to the dealership everyone pretends like it’s unreal but check any forum and tons of people are experiencing these problems with 2022 Civics. I had a dealership tell me to my face that it is 100% "normal".

Vehicle has sticky steering that is noticble above 40 mph and gets worse as the vehicle goes faster. It does take considerable effort to steer at highway speeds as the resistance makes it difficult to not overcorrect when steering. When lane keep assist is on it can also be felt that it is struggling with the resistance in the steering. This started at around 5000 miles. The dealership states that it is the steering rack. There was no warning lamps. There is no tech safety bulletin or recall. This is a known problem and a potential safety issue.

steering feels sticky at highway speeds. almost feels like it jumps and wonders on the highway when making small corrections.

The steering wheel doesn't allow me or the lane keeping assisting system to make small adjustments. It's sticky and may cause over adjustments. Please check the link below. Most of the users have the same problem. https://www.carproblemzoo.com/honda/civic/2022/2022-honda-civic-steering-problems.php

Steering is sticky feel at highway speeds.

Turning the steering wheel feels "sticky" or has excessive resistance, and i have to apply significant force to "break it loose" again, seems to happen at highway speeds intermittently. This issue makes it very difficult to keep the car in a straight line. the force needed to turn the wheel when it "sticks" causing unintentional overcorrections. This is extremely annoying to the driver, and possibly safety concern for keeping control of the car.

At approximately 20,000 miles the vehicle has issues with the steering wheel sticking, adversely affecting the ability to steer the vehicle safely. The issue appears after the vehicle has warmed up and is more noticeable while in the higher RPM range at approximately >40 MPH. The steering feels locked in place with the driver needing to fight the steering in order to control the vehicle. The amount of adjustment needed to steer the vehicle causes the steering to overcompensate and causes the steering to stick in the opposite direction which requires the driver to fight the steering the entire time the vehicle is operated. This issue presents a great safety concern to both the drivers/passengers in the vehicle and other drivers as the fatigue of manipulating the sticking/notched steering wheel can lead accident if the driver's inputs are not consistent with the steering defect. No warning light or or error codes are present.

Car is at about 14k miles. I noticed at high speeds (on the interstate highway) around 55-70 mph, the steering wheel starts to stick. When keeping my car inside the lanes it is very difficult to do so without accidentally jerking the steering wheel, because of it sticking. The steering wheel does not stick when moving at speeds slower than this.

Steering sticky and stiff at highway speeds, requires additional effort to move from centered position.The vehicle is one year old with has roughly 15,000 miles and this just happened recently, oddly enough it appears to work fine at lower speeds.

The steering at highway speeds feels like it sticks at the 12:00 position, almost like a notch is there and I have to give it a little more movement to get the wheel itself to budge. The car also feels like it needs to be re-centered in the lane a lot and it tends to weave.

Steering wheel/rack in car feels as if it's sticking, giving resistance, and notchy. Driving car at highway speeds the steering seems to be less responsive and doesn't want to continue to stay straight. Has a jittery feeling as if it wandering. Lane assist has been turned off and issue still occurred. The problem seems to be getting worse and the car feels unsafe to drive.

The steering has a tendency to "stick" and hold a direction to the left or right of center, requiring more force to bring back to center after a turn. This comes up during highway speeds where there is no "on centering" movement in the steering after a turn, rather, the steering feels notchy and "stuck" in a certain position and extra unusual amount of force is required to right the steering wheel back to center

2022 Civic Sport has close to 2k miles and the steering is sticky and requires force in the opposite direction to "unlock". This is happening with our 2022 Civic Touring and now this new Sport :(. It is a safety issue when trying to correct the stuck steering wheel, if over corrected, can inadvertently drive into another lane unannounced. Many people seem to be having this issue. NHTSA please help us! Honda won't acknowledge this faulty, dangerous issue!!!

The car is 5 months old and the steering wheel was never centered always pulled to the right I had the dealer do an alignment done and nothing has changed it is unsafe and always pulling to the opposite direction. No warning lamps came on. The dealer is telling me the alignments are perfect but it is not. I see that so many others are reporting the same issues but the dealer says nothing is wrong. The steering sticks unless moved to straighten it out. This is a big safety concern if there are so many people complaining about the same issue in the same car.

When I drive down the road at certain times the steering sticks which does not allow me to make the minor adjustments needed to stay in the center of a lane. This causes a jerkiness and overcorrection when driving at higher speeds. This has occurred on long trips and short drives, but sometimes the steering seems fine. I have confirmed that it is not the lane assist kicking in. It is a problem with the steering wheel sticking.

Factory Ordered 2022 Civic Touring Sedan summer of 2021. Took delivery October 27th 2021. Vehicle has 17,600~ miles roughly today. Around mid to late summer of 2022 I started noticing the steering becoming semi-stiff, notchy only in centerline position of 3-5 degrees on Highway driving. All driver aides are turned off LKAS etc. Tried with on or off. Basically, any speed in excess of 40+ mph, especially 60+ mph the steering wheel at random feels lightly stuck, semi-locked, resistive at center position or anywhere within about a 3-5 degree center position requiring a slight but constantly noticeable over steer to get power steering to engage properly. Makes highway driving annoying and uncomfortable constantly using wrist to make minor over corrections slightly right/left, left/right against the resistance. Car drives fine below 40mph. Alignment has been done twice to rule it out. Most recently this December. Dealership has been advised on my last alignment. Simply put steering is sticky, notchy, semi-stiff in centered position once above 40mph+ but not at every single time the vehicle is started. Mostly 60% of the time. I am waiting and would seriously like Honda to investigate the issue and release a TSB fix so I do not have to waste my time running around with the dealership debates BEFORE the factory warranty runs out.

Steering wheel gets stuck momentarily while driving. It feels like it skips/steps after getting released. As a result small adjustments to the steering wheel are not smooth when the problem occurs. While not touching the steering wheel, it makes a slight move unintentionally. The problem seems to occur at any speed, but less noticeable at high RPMs. The problem puts me and passengers at risk since I constantly need to give adjustments to the steering wheel.

Vehicle have major steaming issues. Over correcting constantly at highway speed. Very dangerous to drive. Brought to dealer. Cannot duplicate the problem. Car curently has 35k miles as I commute everyday with this vehicle. Steering is getting stuck in certain positions. Causing myself to oversteer the vehicle. Does it most at 60-70mph going straight

Steering is sticking when making normal minor corrections while driving. This causes the driver to have to over-correct to get past the sticking point. When driving on the highway, this makes driving dangerous, as an over-correction moves the vehicle closer to other vehicles or barriers.

When driving above 45 mph the steering wheel stiffens or sticks. It is unsafe to drive with this issue because it causes the car to slightly swerve to get the wheel to unstick. When turning I can let go of the wheel and it sometimes gets stuck in a sideways position instead of spinning back like most cars do.

I’ve notice sticking in the steering wheel 2 days ago and seems to be getting worse especially the more I drive. So when driving and not turning for a sec or two two make adjustments in steering weather it’s right or left it gets stuck. I have to put a litter force into it to make steering adajustmenst.

Steering feels very jerky on the highway. Best I can describe it is when you are giving little corrections with the steering wheel it feels heavy and then the power steering helps once you get to a certain level of input and the wheel jerks hard. Almost like the power steering can't see the first 5⁰ of input at highway speeds. This makes for a car that is hard to keep centered and unsafe driving conditions on the highway. This effect is noticeable in normal mode and unbearable in sport mode.

The vehicle steering has a spot where it sticks like something is binding happens even trying to make a slight correction and the lane assist is NOT ON when this occurs

Steering becomes sticky and stuck when turning to left as steering must be manually auto-corrected to center mostly more prominent on highway speeds causing car to be at serious risk for crash. Dealer diagnosed problem as PS rack and replacement is around $3k with out of pocket or extended warranty. This was a known issue for previous generation and continues to be an issue in this generation.

The steering is sticking, most noticeable at 50 mph plus, the stickiness causes accidental overseer when making small steering adjustments.

While driving at speeds above 45 mph the steering becomes very stiff as if locked in place and when you try to adjust the steering it jerks the wheel making it very dangerous if your not careful.

Steering is sticking when making normal minor corrections while driving. This causes the driver to have to over-correct to get past the sticking point. When driving on the highway, this makes driving dangerous, as an over-correction moves the vehicle closer to other vehicles or barriers. Note that this problem started around middle of November 2022. Prior to that the vehicle drove fine, no issues.

Steering wheel has started to stick while driving. Noticed about a week ago and has done it every time driven since.

The steering of the car is hard to control starting at 30 mph and getting progressively worse as you increase the speed. The steering wheel seems to lock in a position and when you try to correct your path of travel it causes an over correction due to the additional force necessary to try and keep the car in the intended path. I had 2 close calls where I almost had an accident on the high way because of this. along with my hand being damaged as a result of a service connected disability I fear that I wont have enough strength to keep the car from veering into a tragedy.

The steering wheel "sticks" a little when driving at highway speeds. This is when lane keep assist is turned OFF. As far as I can tell this mostly happens when I'm going in a straight line. It can be unstuck fairly easily by applying pressure to turn, but something is clearly off.

one day after approximately 11k miles of use, the sterring began to bind. Sticking mainly to the center, at first it wasn't very drastic. A little extra effort & you were able to mussel through it. The more you drive it ghe worse it gets. It got to an unmanageable point with the lane assit on, as the car fights itself. this started approximately 3 & half weeks ago. Its getting worse. Had an appointment at tge dealer 2 weeks ago, yesterday there was a release date for my steering rack of January 1, mabye. It gets worse w speed.

While driving my 2022 Civic at freeway speeds beginning to notice steering wheel isn’t responding as smoothly as normal. Car tends to drift in lane and when you correct steering wheel sticks and feels similar to the lane keeping assistance even though it is turned off. Seems to be getting more noticeable and steering isn’t as responsive

When driving at higher speeds on the freeway my steering becomes resistant. Causing over correcting. One day when it was very windy driving to work after over correction I blew into the other lane, luckily no one was close enough. Driving on the freeway for long periods of time causes hand cramps from the amount of grip it requires to keep it center lane. This is a safety issue. I have taken it to Honda on 3 separate occasions for the same issue and every time they say there is nothing wrong.

At highway speeds, the steering wheel will stick a few degrees from center on either side when allowing the wheel to return to its neutral position. When making minor adjustments while travelling straight, the wheel will give increased resistance at the points mentioned above. This can be possibly dangerous if a driver assumes the wheel will behave normally when completing a turn or overcompensating during minor adjustments. This can be especially true during inclement weather conditions where minor adjustments or wheel sticking may affect the driver's ability to correct an otherwise avoidable traction related incident.

Car wanders, and when moving the wheel slightly in either direction it will stay in that direction and not return to the center without help. The wheel also sticks to the center and requires a bit more force to move occasionally.

Steering became difficult and unresponsive at times. Car barely has 3000 miles on it. Took to Honda dealership for inspection. They test drove car and I was told the following needed to be replaced and recommended leaving car there for repairs. Repair rack and pinion assembly, update control unit, update VSA and EPS systems, alignment. 2 weeks to get a part leaving me stuck having to pay for a rental car for weeks.

When im on freeway my car steering wheel starting to feel like sticky and im always fighting to steering to be staright on the road.and its always going right.and when im in idle i can feel and hear a bumping sounds under my vehicle when i slowly turning it right. Its makes me feel Unsafe on this car specially when im driving on freeway! And when i bring it to the dealer ti fix it they always saying nothing was wrong with my steering!! I leave my car in dealer for 2days and when i get it its feel thesame and they pull out the wire power of my dashcam for no reason!!!

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH and making a left turn, there was significant resistance while turning the steering wheel back to the center position. The contact stated that the failure had been occurring mainly after making turns at faster speeds. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the failure was associated to an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000.

Mileage: 28,000

El problema comenzó a las 18,000 millas, el manejo del vehículo a ido empeorando, ahora tiene 22,000 millas y lo hace a poca velocidad de manejo, el problema el que el volante tiene ruido al girar y se atasca durante el manejo, tengo que forzar el volante para que quede línea recta, lo lleve a la garantía y los técnicos me dijeron qué hay una falla interna del Rack & Pinion failure, pero los técnicos no han tomado este problema muy en serio, no me siento seguro manejándolo

While driving the 2022 Civic sport there is a noticeable stickiness to the steering almost as if the wheel will look up while trying to drive straight and pull the car to different sides of the road. It originally was while driving straight mainly highway miles. Now it’s becoming noticeable during day to day driving and turning. This is very unsafe considering the car can turn and steering wheel will not allow the driver to automatically correct because it is locked up. Around 5000 miles the steering wheel will begin having a loose change noise when turning to the left behind the horn, around 10,000 miles the steering wheel will begin locking up and not allowing the driver to correct it and will pull the car to different sides of the road. If you go to the dealership everyone pretends like it’s unreal but check any forum and 1000s of people are experiencing these problems with 2022 Civics

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel momentarily seized. The contact stated that extra effort was needed to turn the steering wheel, causing the driver to overcompensate while attempting the turn the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure occurred while driving in a straight line, or while the steering wheel was stationary. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.

Mileage: 10,000

steering wheel is not reacting properly. It feels like sticky.

My steering wheel is starting to stick, I have to pull harder than normal for it to turn, it's led me to over correct it by accident on the highway to get it to move. Others have had this issue on these Civics as well. If it gets worse I can see this being very dangerous if it gets worse.

Starting around 38k miles the steering will get stuck in the middle position causing me to use extra force to free the wheel. This causes an over compensation and swerving. It’s especially worse at higher speeds than 40 mph. I feel this could cause an accident. It happens with lane keep assist on or off. I have not seen any fault lights on the dash and have not taken to a dealer or mechanic yet, but I will soon.

Steering wheel/rack in car feels as if it’s sticking, giving resistance, and notchy. Driving car at highway speeds the steering seems to be less responsive and doesn’t want to continue to stay straight. Has a jittery feeling as if it wandering. Lane assist has been turned off and issue still occurred. The problem seems to be getting worse and the car feels unsafe to drive. Car has not been to dealer yet waiting in appointment. Car has no been inspected by any of the following: manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure when the issue started. Noticed issue on 12/6/22. Roughly 8600 miles on vehicle.

At medium to high speeds (40 - 70 MPH ) the steering wheel sticks in left and right directions with all lane keeping and Honda safety turned off. It takes a decent amount of force to correct the steering and causes jerky reactions causing my car to dramatically bounce between lane lines. This is a major safety issue as on a curvy road I can easily veer off road or into oncoming lanes . This is a major issue and have found a lot of other Honda Civic owners are seeing the same issue. There are no indicator lights on the dash when this happens. I have tried to correct issue by changing the steering wheel location via the telescope position with no change. I plan to take my car in to service ASAP as it is unsafe to drive on my daily 100mi commute.

The steering wheel sticks at times. Driving straight and in turns. It's a slight stick, but increasingly more noticeable. While driving straight it happens if I don't touch the wheel for a few seconds. Then I'll need to make a minor correction and it's stuck. I have to put some decent pressure on the wheel to make it unstuck, which causes an over-correction

I own a 2022 Honda Civic sport and I am having steering issues. When going over 30+mph, the steering wheel feels very STICKY, on the highway the wheel will stay in a slightly turned position and not return to center, It causes resistance when making small corrections which then gives away when applying pressure, over correcting and making driving dangerous. This started around 8k miles and I now have almost 12k with no fix (I've had the car since 5 miles). Driving this car at first was one of the most fun experiences, but now its getting tiring with this big issue that dealers around my area cannot fix.

While driving, the steering wheel will stick and require extra effort to turn the wheel. While not currently life-threatening, this has all the potential to become fatal. There has been some reproductions at service centers, but my vehicle has not been inspected yet, and there are no warning lights or prompts.

Immaculately kept and cared for 2022 civic with 8,000 miles on it has “sticky” and/or “binding” steering, which came on out of nowhere a week or two ago. The problem is more pronounced at highway speeds, but is starting to become noticeable at residential street speeds (25-35mph) too. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY LESS THAN YEAR OLD CAR! Brought it to the dealership yesterday and they actually acknowledged the problem and recommended “a whole steering gearbox replacement”, which is under warranty, but the part has at least a month lead time. Unacceptable! Most dangerous incident took place when I was turning onto my street and in mid-turn the steering wheel got stuck making me have to apply more than normal force and making an over correction. Thankfully, nobody was around so I didn’t hit anyone, but it could have been bad if there was a car in the opposing lane.

My steering wheel becomes sticky once I get to highway speeds. Attempting to make any micro adjustments becomes difficult because it requires more force and causes over correction. It doesn’t happen as often when temperatures are lower though. Seems more common when it’s warm out. Have not gone to the dealer yet.

When driving straight on the freeway for a certain amount of time, the steering wheel sticks and I would have to apply more force to adjust the steering. I had the dealership run a diagnostic and they updated the software but the problem still persists. The steering is sensitive and applying extra amount of pressure is dangerous, especially on rainy days.

The car has 13,000 miles . The steering sticks on the Highway and over corrects When having to unstick it . It feels very unsafe to drive . Took it to the dealer and they said could not find anything wrong . It started doing this recently was fine up to now . Don’t feel safe at all driving it and there is a clunking sound when making turns or backing out of a parking space.

When im driving, my steering wheel doesnt return to center on its own, even when turning the slightest bit. I have to apply force and it’s dangerous especially on the freeway.

This issue has been occurring since my vehicle had approximately 10,000 miles on it. Currently has around 16,000 miles on it. Sticking of the steering wheel while at traveling speeds and near-straight direction. Generally happens for the entire duration of the drive, occurring after the steering wheel has been stationary for more than a second or two. Most noticeable when at faster/highway speeds. Problem will be reported to the dealer. This can very in intensity and require different amounts of effort to overcome the sticking. It causes annoyance in keeping the vehicle straight or slightly curved, and making very minor steering inputs can be difficult. This could create a safety issue if not expecting it or cause minor over-correction when the pressure releases while traveling on contaminated roads. Seems to happen more often in cool temperatures between 45 and 65 degrees, and regardless of LKAS or other driver assist system functions being on or off.

Steering is "sticking" causing temporary moments of resistance while steering which then gives away and can cause an over correction.

30+ mph steering becomes sticky / notchy that requires over-correction to fix, making it uncomfortable and dangerous to drive, particularly on the interstate. When using Lane Keep Assist, it pulls to one side or the other, crossing the line, and then autocorrects when the lane departure warning is activated, only to repeat this process consistently. There are no error codes on the car and local dealerships have not yet heard of a solution. There are currently no recalls or official statements from Honda regarding this issue.

Since I've owned the car, when driving above 40 mph(when lkas may engage), with lkas off, the steering becomes statically neutral. . . I. E in a turn the steering wheel will remain in the turned position when pressure on the wheel is reduced. In this case the steering wheel( as well as the front wheels themselves) should straighten out as you continue to move. This is dangerous. Also, at highway speeds, in order to maintain the center of your lane small inputs to the steering wheel are normally required. In this vehicle, there is resistance to these small inputs. When the force of your input finally overcomes the resistance in the steering wheel the wheel turns more dramatically than intended(overcorrection). This is also dangerous. This also occurs with lkas off. It's almost like lkas engages the steering column preemptively above 40 mph but in a dangerous manner. I have less than 3000 miles on the car.

Steering wheel has some resistance when trying to correct while driving. It feels as if though the steering wheel is getting stuck and I have to force it when trying to correct the car when going straight.

The issues started around 3000 miles. When I turn the steering wheel to stay on the road around a slight curve, it will not naturally return to the center and I have to manually pull it back. It makes it feel like the car is wandering and if it gets much worse it will be unsafe. My car now has 5500 miles and is exhibiting a light “catch” or stickiness when making small adjustments (mostly noticed on the highway). My dealership is useless and rude and says that they will charge me a fee if they do not find anything wrong with the car, even though it is well under warranty. My concerns were confirmed by a mechanic shop in my area who acknowledged the steering oddity.

notchy or sticking of steering wheel when driving and low or highway speeds. Less than 8,000 miles on the car and started within the last 1,000 miles. Issue is present with and without driving assist featured enabled/disabled.

When driving at normal and highway speeds with or without Lane Keep Assist activated steering rack gets stuck in position. When trying to maintain lane the steering wheel will lock and to release you must steer turn the wheel past this point of resistance. When this happens the car may end up leaving the roadway or entering another lane of traffic. The car has 53,000 miles and the warranty for this part is out however this is a known problem surfacing in forums with cars under 5000 miles. I feel this should be a recall due to the steering not functioning safely. This problem is getting worse over time and just started a couple weeks ago.

Our 2022 Civic Touring started exhibiting weird steering behavior about 3000 miles in. With higher speeds, the steering "sticks" and requires slight, but manual force to free it. Usually, the stickiness happens and the car veers slightly to the left, I have to pull right to free the steering wheel again. This is dangerous as it can invite over compensation when correcting the locked steering, at best creates a jerky movement when correcting, at worst, over correction can cause accidents. Honda is not acknowledging this issue.

when driving straight on highway steering wheel gets stuck at center causing jerking/ oversteering when trying to make small adjustments on highway. turned off all lane keeping assistance and lane departure options with no change. have had vehicle for almost one year and issue just started about one month ago. multiple other owners having same issue from online forums with dealers stating no problem

Since I've owned the car, when driving above 40 mph(when LKAS may engage), with LKAS off, the steering becomes statically neutral...i.e in a turn the steering wheel will remain in the turned position when pressure on the wheel is reduced. In this case the steering wheel( as well as the front wheels themselves) should straighten out as you continue to move. This is dangerous. Also, at highway speeds, in order to maintain the center of your lane small inputs to the steering wheel are normally required. In this vehicle, there is resistance to these small inputs. When the force of your input finally overcomes the resistance in the steering wheel the wheel turns more dramatically than intended(overcorrection). This is also dangerous. This also occurs with LKAS off. It's almost like LKAS engages the steering column preemptively above 40 mph but in a dangerous manner.

Despite multiple attempts to correct and/or tighten, Vehicle exhibits loose ball control contact and unstable steering at low speeds. An audible roughness and response is heard when driving. Multiple Dealers have diagnosed and repeatedly attempted to remedy. Honda America Tech support has yet to offer any workable solutions. Will continue to pursue a solution to make the automobile completely safe to drive.

The lane keep assist of the car is supposed to keep the car centered when enabled. It does this job well most of the time however a few times, the car keep wanting to hug the right lane line to the point where lane departure alert starts beeping. In summary the car thinks the center is closer towards the right lane line to the point where lane departure alert warning comes on. As the driver you have to actively hold the steering to keep it centered since the system will keep fighting you to gravitate towards the right lane line. This issue occurred twice as of this date with no specific pattern observed that might trigger it. The abnormal behavior is observed when the system is engaged for a while in its normal operation. This can pose a safety issue if the car suddenly drifts to the right rather keep it centered in the lane since it occurs without warning. No warning lights or alerts come in the car when this abnormal behavior occurs. However the dashboard (sport touring digital cluster) visualization also shows the car deviating towards the right lane line during this behavior indicating the car's camera also sees this abnormal behavior but the lane keeping logic somehow is issuing the wrong control commands. Plan to show it to a dealer soon.

I have just over 600 miles and haven’t had an issue before today but today the Lane Centering/Keeping feature began pulling me sharply to the right side of the lane and crossed it, causing the vehicle’s lane departure warning system to shake the steering wheel. I have driven this road with this car before. This did not happen.

Steering pulls to the side making it very hard to steer. Will stay in lane when going straight but makes your arms sore trying to steer it. Does not happen at all speeds usually above 30mph. Duplicated by dealer. Unable To fix the problem due to steering rack in back order for over 6 months and counting. Will not drive the car as it is my daughters and is unsafe for her. No codes showing at the dealer.

Steering wheel starts to stick or bind after a 30 minute drive. When stopped there is clunk coming from the electronic power steering. Once on the high way, the steering wheel gets really sticky and when trying to do a small correction it jerks. After a while it becomes really unsafe to drive since all the correction you make are extreme and it struggles to keep the car centered on the lane without constant struggle.

My wife purchased a new 2022 Honda civic sport, it has lane control assist and at high speed it wonders, pulls side to side, follows lanes color change, pulls into a curve and pulls when going by big trucks into the truck. I have to hold the steering very tight and it has made my arms hurt from the straining. I went to Honda 4 time before anyone admitted it has a serious problem. Hammer Honda in Reseda Ca, verified the problems. The book clear states the lane change assist may or may not work, Honda denies anything is wrong. This is a safety issue and we have had 4 near crash events. I am a Certified Trained Alignment Technician and know cars well, I have 43 years of hands on experience, this car is unsafe and no one at Honda is disclosing this safety issue with this 2022 Honda Civic Sports. The expert at Honda on the 4th visit Witnessed and Verified the Lane Change Assists not working properly at 50 mph.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 to 60 mph, the steering wheel was vibrating. The dealer was made aware of the failure and the vehicle was inspected; however, the dealer informed the contact that the steering column part was not available. The contact was informed that the vehicle was safe to drive until the part became available. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that after receiving the vehicle back from the dealer, there were abnormal sounds coming from the front driver’s and passenger’s side tires while driving. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100.

Mileage: 100
