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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
-What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Unknown, possibly the steering rack and or power steering motor. -How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk Inability to safely maintain lanes and the wheel not returning to the center after a turn requires extra force (Especially60+MPH) to get the wheel moving again that causes over corrections and in turn swerving that can be very dangerous to me and others on the road especially after getting stuck during said over correction. -Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, I took the car to the dealership said they were aware of some cars having this "sticky steering" and they did NOT get in the car to confirm the issue. -Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others?
