STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

I was driving down the freeway in January and my front driver side tire sidewalls separated from the rest of the tire and flew off of the rim causing me to drive on the rim. Zero warning lights or tire pressure lights appeared on my dash until after I installed my spare tire. Very scary this occurred on a freeway at full speed and no indicator light came on. I heard a loud noise when my tire flew off which then required me to immediately stop.

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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

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

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

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