2022 Honda Civic
Reliability Rating Report

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 rented this car. The adaptive cruise worked great in the daytime, but when it got dark and started to rain, the system started to lose its ability to detect other vehicles. Instead of disabling itself like it should have, the system continued to operate. It often would detect vehicles intermittently, speeding up and slowing down randomly and abruptly. The worst incident was when I was behind an unloaded flatbed semi (again, it was dark and raining.) The car lost track of the semi and accelerated to my set speed. As I got closer, but not THAT close, the car suddenly thought I was much closer than I was and initiated automated emergency braking. It then lost sight of the semi and repeated this cycle a few more times before I turned off cruise control. There was no one behind me, or this could have been a serious accident. I looked in the owner's manual to see how to disable the system and was appalled to see that it uses a single camera instead of a radar. This is obviously unsafe in bad weather, and the system did not disable itself appropriately.

I have 2 recalls due to the steering of the car. Ive called honda corporate and local dealerships in my area and no one has a estimate for when the parts will come in for the recall. 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.

When scheduling the appointment for recall # 24V-744, was told they would put me on waiting list for the replacement part. Was informed it could take several months to receive the call that the part was even sent.

Due to a faulty malfunctioning manufactured back up camera and front dashboard display, my sister backed into another car while parallel parking, resulting in a damages on the paint of the back bumper and further indentation. Additionally this issue happens all of sudden no matter what the weather condition or temperature outside is which increases the risk of a crash with vehicle behind or injury to a pedestrian. I have proof of this happening and it seems forums online have reported this issue to

[XXX] The power steering column locked up while driving down [XXX] causing an incident that caused the car to become a total loss. A police report was generated where II stated the power steering column locked which caused the incident, I informed my insurance company immediately and throughout the dealings with my insurance company and Honda Collision center I kept stating the steering column locking as the issue. I even reached out to Honda Automobile Customer spoke to Danielle and Casey at 1-888-234-2138 on 10/4/2024 at 3:36 pm in which I was advised of the recall inspect EPS part 23089. Honda Collision center advisor drove the car around the parking lot and made an assumption it was not the power steering column. I have since 8/31/2024 have been looking for an attorney to sue Honda and now I have the recall letter sent by Honda I hopefully will be able to retain one.

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.

When I tried to start the vehicle on 10/14/24, it did not start, however it started showing various messages on the electronic dashboard. The vehicle was towed to John Eagle Honda Of Dallas (Honda Dealer) on 10/14/24 around 11:15 AM. I am enclosing the diagnostic report run on the vehicle by the John Eagle Honda of Dallas on 10/15/24 which shows some of the messages I had seen on the dashboard. My dashboard never showed me low battery at any time but the car did not start and the message of lane departure, brake failure messages came on the dashboard. I have LoJack App service on my phone which tracks everything on my vehicle.I used the vehicle on 10/11/24 and 10/12/24 and there was no issue in the vehicle nor did I see any dashboard warnings. The dealer kept the car overnight stating that they were too busy on 10/14/24 and promised me that they will provide alternate vehicle on 10/15/24 morning as per my phone call. I went to the dealership on the 15th at 8:50 AM to pick up the alternate vehicle, the service advisor said I can take my vehicle since he had changed the battery and it was safe to drive and did not provide me the invoice for the replaced battery. I asked the service advisor for the diagnostic report and he informed me that everything was okay in the report. I insisted on taking the print out of the diagnostic report and had to wait to collect it. Seeing the time on the report I am able to understand that they ran the diagnostic report while I was waiting. After driving my vehicle from the dealership and not having new battery invoice in my hand I called Honda motor company customer service and narrated my dealership visit details along with being uncomfortable on the safety of the vehicle. I didn't get any help from them as well. They created a case number for me. They said that someone will reach out to me and no one has till date. If you need any other information please feel free to contact me.

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 children fell asleep in the car, I put the car in park but left it running with ac running while I was right outside of the car doing some things. After a certain amount of time (a few minutes) the car automatically shut everything off including the air conditioning. I hadn’t left the car unattended so I knew as soon as it turned off and my children were never in danger but I’m worried the same could happen if someone left their animals (or worse case scenario children) unattended with the car running to go inside somewhere. I feel strongly that if I leave my car running with the air conditioning on it should stay running with the air conditioning on until I personally turn it off.

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.

The vehicle brake suddenly and has light appear when parked and or not driven. Car shut off once on the freeway already and yesterday the whole car would not run . It has been in and out service about ten times and they can’t find an issue This is calling emotional distress, the Breaking with kids in the car almost causing an accident three times with this vehicle. currently under lemon but Honda is not taking this seriously ! I have multiple repair notes and also video.

While driving the wheel moved trying to correct itself. It was raining so that caused us to hydroplane into a ditch.

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

On six different occasions beginning at the end of June 2024, my daughter has been driving to work in above 100 degree temps, sometimes 110+, and her a/c stops blowing. She has stopped the vehicle to turn off the ignition and restart, but it does not work. Her commute to work then becomes extremely unsafe in the AZ heat and she has been completely soaked with sweat and dizzy upon arrival until she can get hydrated. I am deeply concerned and have an appointment with Honda Superstition Springs, Mesa, AZ tomorrow 7/3/2024. I hope they can find the issue.

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.

Steering wheel locks up and trunk hatchback leaks every time it rains.

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

Usually in the mornings there is a loud sound that comes out of the vents. I have it recorded. It sounds somewhat like crackling. One time when my car was in the shop I was given a loner of the same type of car and I heard it in that car as well. Today was the most recent occurence. 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.

All of the lights come on periodically (lane departure can’t be used, it says braking system error, it says braking system could be decreased and says to have car serviced) I’ve taken it to the dealership once and they could not replicate it and said it could be a sensor but wasn’t sure I paid for a inspection because they didn’t know. Searching things now there are a ton of forums with the same problem for the same model and make.

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.

Didn’t brake when car accident happened from front also seat belts don’t hold on braking in drivers side

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).

The car has never been crashed

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.

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.

My 2022 Honda Civic has been having issues with the EPS Rack and Parts. There has been a recall on this part on the Honda Civics and unfortunately my vehicle was not on the list of cars that was made in the manufacturing time. My car is extremely hard to turn the steering wheel while driving and it causes my cruise control steering system to not work correctly almost causing many accidents. I have also had to buy 2 new sets of tires as it has caused them to wear down faster. Ive had alignments and the car will still steer me to the right direction. The front tires rub very harshly when I need to make a turn. When turning it makes many noises. When I go start to go about 45mph the car will start shaking very harshly until 80mph. The car started to shake and make clunking noises about 6 months in to me having the vehicle and the Honda dealership said it was normal and the issues continued to get worse. As soon as I saw the recall come out I quickly scheduled an appointment for it to be looked at just for my specific car to not be on the list but have all issues that the recall is creating on these vehicles. This is very dangerous as I have small children and the issues continue to worsen.

[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.

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.

On multiple occaisions the forward collision braking system has engaged erroniously while traveling on highways or interstates. Sudden heavy braking in these scenarios is disorienting and puts my at higher risk of rear end collision and of traction loss. The Honda dealer has been made aware of the issue but has dismissed it and refused to forward the complaint to Honda. There were no warnings or notifications other than the indicator that the forward collision braking system was being engaged.

While driving steam started to appear from the engine bay. I pulled over to inspect, lifted up the hood and could hear the fuel line popping and gasoline hissing out. The engine bay spontaneously caught fire. As it ignited all of the gasoline in the air combusted and created a ball of fire in my face as I was looking in the engine bay. The fire was put out by the fire department. An incident report was created. The potential for safety risk was high and could have been worse if I was not on a road where I was able to stop or if it caught fire while I was inside the car. The vehicle has been inspected by Insurance and confirmed to be a total loss. Since nothing was left to visually inspect of the car their investigation came back nonconclusive as to the cause. There were no indication lights that there was anything wrong with the engine.

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

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that 30 minutes after the vehicle was parked, the vehicle made an abnormally loud beeping sound. The contact stated that he then noticed that the vehicle was on. The check engine, Adaptive Cruise Control, turn signal warning lights, and other warning lights were illuminated. The contact turned off the vehicle and disconnected the battery. The contact stated that upon reconnecting the battery, the failure persisted. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring. The dealer was notified of the failure, and the contact was advised to take the vehicle to the dealer for diagnostic testing. Additionally, the dealer informed the contact that a diagnostic fee would be charged because the vehicle was not under warranty due to the mileage. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 37,900.

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.

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.

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.

While driving the car with the cruise set at any random speed, the adaptive cruise control would "cancel" and a long beep noise would sound. When attempting to "resume" cruise control, three quick beeps can be heard and the cruise control would not activate. The car has to be shut off and cranked back up for the cruise control to work again. The dealership I took it to claimed they could not recreate the issue. There are no DTC codes and no warning lights. It has been happening since I purchased the vehicle in February of 2022. The sudden cancellation of the cruise control can pose a safety issue for drivers behind me and myself.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed and attempting to complete a turn, the steering wheel required to be manually returned to the center. The contact also became aware that the vehicle failed to unlock using the keyless entry system. Upon entering the vehicle, the instrument panel indicated that the rear passenger’s side seat was occupied, even though there was no one seated in the seat. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who determined that various wires within the wiring harness were disconnected. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but did not assist. The failure mileage was 59,000.

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
