STEERING
When driving at highway speeds, the steering of the car feels like it gets stuck, especially when trying to change lanes.. When turning the steering wheel to change lanes, it doesn’t do anything until you give it a little tug more to change lane. There’s also a problem when going over 40MPH over a slight bend, the car doesn’t turn until you tug the wheel more to whichever way the road is going. It’s pretty dangerous especially when you need to avoid an accident, any little bit of over correcting or under correcting can cause you to be the cause/victim of an accident.

While at cruising speeds the steering rack seems to grab when doing micro adjustments to keep straight and I have to apply more pressure which causes a small jerk in the steering

I'm experiencing sticky steering at highway speeds. While traveling in a straight line and needing to make small adjustments, the steering gets stuck for a second, then releases. This happens over and over.

STEERING
This car has about 9,000 miles on it and it now has issues with the steering wheel sticking and jerking when it gets above ~50mph. It feels difficult to keep between the lines on the highway because the steering is not functioning as it used to. So much that the car flagged a warning as “driver attention low” and recommended I take a break. My attention was incredibly high because of the steering issue but I could not keep the wheel from jerking in small increments back and forth. This is now happening every time I get above 50mph.

STEERING
When driving at any speed, but particularly exceeding 40MPH, making minor adjustments to steering is sticky and requires excessive force to make the adjustment. When making the adjustment, the vehicle often makes an over-adjustment, and requires an over correction. This is particularly dangerous at highway speeds, where the problem occurs more frequently.

STEERING
The steering sticks while trying to keep the car driving in a straight motion. The speed doesn't seem to matter. It feels as if the steering wheel is constantly fighting me. Sometimes it makes me drift towards other cars next to me while I'm fighting to keep it center.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
When driving it’s as if the steering gets stuck. The vehicle will start to pull from the left to right as if bouncing from one side of the lane to the other. All lane keep assist and road departure features are turned off. Began around 2k miles and currently has 5500. Causing me to over correct and make jerky motions to keep in lane. Sometimes feels like it doesn’t want to correct at all. Noticing it at low and high speeds, constantly fighting a car that feels like it is in control.

STEERING
Steering gets “stuck” during highway driving, requiring extra effort to move. This happens in curves and straight line driving. The issue is worse in colder temperatures, and has become more prominent with more miles.

STEERING
For the past few months, my car has been experiencing a recurring issue with the steering wheel feeling inexplicably stuck. This concern poses a severe safety risk as it occurs almost every time I'm behind the wheel. Whether I'm driving on the highway or in the city, attempting to make slight adjustments to the left or right results in the steering wheel becoming rigid, demanding additional force to maneuver. This scares me as it can lead to an inability to avoid a hazard on the road. This increased force often leads to an over-adjustment, causing the vehicle to veer more than intended, a hazardous situation, especially on the highway. Driving my car has become an alarming experience, and I find myself feeling extremely anxious each time I take it out on the road. Upon conducting thorough research, I discovered that many other owners have faced a similar issue. Notably, the Honda Civic, which shares several components with the Acura Integra, has previously undergone a recall for this exact problem.

STEERING
When driving I’ve noticed small catches that happens when I am driving. For example If I am traveling in a straight line for a few seconds and have to make a correction( i.e. going around a corner) in my steering, the steering wheel requires a little more effort in order for the car to adjust the direction of travel. My car has 8,44 miles.

STEERING
Steering feels sticky at times. As in, more effort is needed than normal to turn the wheel past a certain point. Most prevalent on the highway where the problem is consistent from 50-65mph. Has been occurring the last couple weeks. Currently at 7,149 miles.

STEERING
Steering wheel began sticking when centered/driving straight, which causes a momentary increase in steering effort. This began around 7,500 miles. The steering wheel, when centered, resists movement in both a counterclockwise and clockwise direction. Firm movement will dislodge it, resulting in a "jerk" in the direction of the turn. The movement required to dislodge it is significantly more firm/forceful than the movement required to turn the steering wheel after dislodging it. The issue is noticeable at a stop, but becomes more pronounced at higher speeds. The Miami Acura service department told me "there is nothing we can do" and that they are "waiting for Acura to tell us what to do because there are a lot of other people with the same issue".

STEERING
Steering becomes sticky & jerky, especially at highway speeds. The usual smoothness disappears & you have to work against it to make mild corrections you normally wouldn’t even notice. I have thought this for many months now, but it was sporadic & caused me to question if I was just being overly sensitive. But I recently updated the audio system per the wireless updates, and today, the steering “stickiness” was egregious. It was pouring rain & that type of jerky motion made it very unsafe to drive. On my way home from work today, the stickiness was gone for the first leg of my trip. Then when I turned on the car to finish the second leg, the stickiness had returned as bad as it was this morning (although no longer raining). CarPlay & even the FM radio also seem to malfunction now as well. I called Acura earlier today & have made a service appointment for 12/27/23, the first opening they had available.
