Honda (american Honda Motor Co.)
Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
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.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
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.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
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.
