Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
Previously reported car for “Sticky Steering” before ODI Resume and Investigation was launched. Car was at dealership for a few days short of one month. The gearbox was replaced. Since receiving car back, the steering wheel is off center visually and when driving. To continue driving in a straight direction constant pressure has to be applied to center the car to the right. The Lane Keep Assistance will not operate at highway speeds without swerving. Prior to the repair and before the notch steering developed at 9300 miles, the Lane Keep was very smooth and reliable, now it is a safety hazard. Acura stated that this is within normal operating modes. They cannot duplicate Service manager stated that he has customers who would love for their car to drive like this one. The tires are showing signs of wear from pulling. An independent mechanic drove the vehicle and stated that the rack and pinion was most likely installed incorrect with teeth not aligning. No fix but to replace again. Car currently has 12200 miles and has been in service since 4/23.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
FOR SOME TIME NOW, WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (35+ MPH) AND TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THERE WILL BE RESISTANCE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE MICRO-ADJUSTMENTS TO THE STEERING WHEEL AS YOU WOULD WHILE TRAVELING STRAIGHT (TO KEEP THE CAR AS STARIGHT AS POSSIBLE. A BIT MORE EFFORT IS REQUIRED TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND ONCE SUCCESSFUL IN DOING SO, THE INPUT WINDS UP BEING TOO MUCH AND YOU HAVE TO TURN THE WHEEL NOW IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO CORRECT THE OVER-CORRECTION. ULTIMATELY, YOU WIND UP BOUNCING FROM LANE LINE TO LANE LINE ON FAIRLY STRAIGHT ROADWAYS. THIS IS INDEPENDENT OF ANY OTHER FACTORS INCLUDING LKAS, LANE DEPARTURE MITIGATION AS WELL AS THE STERRING 'DRIVE MODE' (COMFORT, NORMAL, SPORT). I CAN REPLICATE THE ISSUE WITH COMBINIATIONS OF ALL OF THESE SETTINGS ACTIVE/INACTIVE. THIS ISSUE ALSO SEEMS TO APPEAR ABOUT A HALF AN HOUR INTO ANY COMMUTE.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
I am having a sticky steering wheel issue and is available for inspection upon request. While driving I have lost temporary control overcorrecting the sticky steering while pulling into traffic and keeping the vehicle in the lane in heavy traffic. It creates an not predictable driving experience and feel extremely unsafe. I notice the steering wheel favors pulling left like its alignment is constantly off to the left. I have taken it to the dealer when it first started happening and we could not repo it then. It is happening more frequently and I will be scheduling a follow up appointment. My vehicle has no been inspected by the manufacturer, police or other insurance representative. There are no associated warning lights or messages. I noticed at first the wheel was pulling left before the sticky wheel problem occurred.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
I have been experiencing situations while driving where the steering wheel sticks. It is more prevalent at highway speeds but does happen while driving at lower normal street speeds. You constantly have to correct the steering wheel to keep the car moving in a straight line. I took the car to the dealership, they drove the car and advised it was operating as designed. I cant believe this car was designed to steer and track like it does! You are constantly correct the steering and feel the wheel stick. Any help would be appreciated.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
My car for the last week has been getting the infamous "sticky" steering when doing highway speeds. It does lead to overcorrection which could be me and other motorist in danger or in harms way. It almost keyword here "almost" got me into a wreck because when trying to pass into another lane, my steering wheel felt stuck and I had to apply some extra force to get into my lane. Luckily, no one was there on the other lane but the overcorrection felt a knee jerk into the lane. No waring lights appear on the dash since the sensor won't pick it up. I have taken my car to the dealership to see if it can be fixed, so far 3 days with no updates and will have to play the "telephone" game to get any updates.

I noticed that the steering on my vehicle has become "sticky". The steering wheel seems to stay stuck in position while driving. It takes extra effort to move it from the stuck position. It does not take a lot of force to move it from the stuck position, but it is definitely noticable. This is certainly annoying, and I feel this could be a safety issue

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
The component or system affected is the car's steering. It 'sticks' when driving 35-55 mph in a continuous left or right hand curve. It sticks at slower speeds as well, just not as pronounced. The steering would stay in a 'stuck' position if the driver doesn't make an effort to straighten the steering position. It's truly a safety risk. I'm not driving it any longer on highways because it is getting worse as time and miles pass. The dealer (Acura of North Austin, TX) refuses to spend anytime reproducing this issue, as I took it there for this issue and was basically told there is no problem with the steering after it sat at their dealership for a week and driven a total of 4 (four) miles. This is a very serious safety concern which Acura/Honda needs to address. The Civics of the same year model ARE under recall, but for some reason, the Acura version of the Civic is not. These cars share the SAME COMPONENTS, but the Integra has not been added to the recall. Makes no sense.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
This issue is very similar (same as) to the issue described in NHTSA Investigation EA23003 (Momentary Increased Steering Effort). The issue occurs at highway speeds after the vehicle warms up. While driving straight there is a slight resistance to a steering change that results in an overcorrection to steering that then will need to be followed by another correction in the opposite direction to keep vehicle tracking straight. The magnitude of corrections in themselves don't force the vehicle out of the lane but are a major driving distraction that removes focus from critical driving activities like monitoring traffic & road conditions. Effectively, this issue prevents optimal vehicle steering position without constant small steering adjustments.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
The steering is malfunctioning and is available for inspection. The steering wheel is stiff and sticky at high speeds and when driving in a straight line. Before this began, I could move my steering wheel very smoothly to adjust for minor positional changes within my lane. Now, the steering wheel freezes in place, so a very slight left or right position has be veering towards one side. I have to apply noticeably more force to dislodge the steering wheel from its stuck position to correct the car's trajectory. My safety and the safety of others is at risk. I am afraid that driving at high speeds and needing to make rapid adjustments to avoid collision will be catastrophic due to unnatural steering and needing to apply significantly more force to move the wheel. I have not taken the car to the dealership, however, the problem has been reported numerous times on online forums and confirmed by other dealerships. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone since the car's last oil change 3 months ago. There were no warning signs, messages or symptoms of the problem before it appeared.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
After approximately 15 minutes of driving at highway speeds, the steering wheel felt "sticky." Making small, lane keeping adjustment suddenly took much more effort and felt very notchy and jerky. When turning, the steering wheel did not return to center as normal, but had to forcibly returned to a center position. It was uncomfortable and felt unsafe, like it would be difficult to fully control the vehicle, especially in the event of an emergency. It made the small, normal adjustments of driving much, much more difficult. I made an appointment with the dealer of the car and was told that their was a failure in the steering rack/power steering system that caused the symptoms. I was told parts would take 5 months to arrive. There was no warning light, audio signal, or any other indication that the failure was about to occur. The issue disappears under 40 miles an hour, but reappears immediately once highway speeds are achieved. Once turned off and rested for several minutes the car will steer normally until the same 10-15 minute period of highway speeds.

It made the small, normal adjustments of driving much, much more difficult. I made an appointment with the dealer of the car and was told that their was a failure in the steering rack/power steering system that caused the symptoms. I was told parts would take 5 months to arrive. There was no warning light, audio signal, or any other indication that the failure was about to occur. The issue disappears under 40 miles an hour, but reappears immediately once highway speeds are achieved. Once turned off and rested for several minutes the car will steer normally until the same 10-15 minute period of highway speeds.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
My car has the known "sticky steering" issue associated with this and many '22, '23, and '24 vehicles from Honda. It's been mild and almost imperceptible for a while until recently getting worse. I'd have a hard time knowing when it started; probably 6-8 months ago which was about a year into owning the car.
