STEERING
While driving down the highway the steering feels like it sticks in place. When I put more pressure on the wheel to correct in my lane it unsicks and the vehicle over corrects sometimes causing me to go outside of my lane. This is a safety risk for myself and others because when the stearing wheel sticks it is difficult to make fine corrections on the highway going 55mph+ resulting in me going outside of my lane. The dealership says they don't notice anything. No components have been inspected No warning lights or anything alerted me.

STEERING
The steering becomes unusually notchy and stiff at mid to high speeds (~ >45 MPH). It is more noticeable when driving in a straight or nearly-straight line. I will try to make a minor adjustment to steering angle, and because it is so stiff, I will sometimes push too hard and over-correct. This can make driving in a straight line difficult for extended periods. This problem also seems to give the Lane Keep Assist some trouble remaining in the lines at highway speeds (although the problem also occurs with LKA off). The problem is inconsistent when trying to reproduce. Sometimes it will be present for several days, and then seems to go away for a few days, etc. I feel as if this could eventually cause a collision at high speeds if I'm driving with extra awareness or if the problem worsens. The car has 9,900 miles on it and I would say this problem has been noticeable for about the last 1,000 miles. The problem has not yet been investigated by a dealer. No warning lights or anything have appeared to indicate a problem. The problem is present across all driving modes (Normal, Sport, and Individual).

STEERING
Steering sticks and requires more effort at high speeds to steer. This makes minor steering adjustments unsafe at freeway speeds because the malfunction often makes me oversteer and sway from side to side in the lane. I noticed the issue with under 1000 miles on the car and have taken the car to the dealer I purchased the vehicle from. They have replicated the error but deemed it safe to drive. I have been waiting 6 months for the replacement part to come in due to it being on backorder. There are no warning lights from the malfunction but the steering sticks everytime I drive the car and is most noticeable at high speeds

STEERING
There is a serious problem w the steering on my 2022 Honda Civic Si. The car is available for inspection. The steering is "sticky" and "Notchy" on center. Because of the stickiness, it is impossible to keep the vehicle going straight, requiring constant steering correction with the stickiness constantly occurring. Yes, the dealer experienced the notchy steering. you can feel it while standing still but is more pronounced while driving. Vehicle had a cursory investigation and I have an appt with my dealer for further diagnostics in a few days. There were no warnings. This problem has been present since the car was new and it's getting worse.

STEERING
Steering has been extremely sticky at all speeds but it is more prevalent at higher speeds. The steering wheel is unable to be centered and jerks from side to side as opposed to moving smoothly due to the stickiness. As a driver, this makes highway and other driving unsafe as it is impossible to center the vehicle on the road. No warning lamps have been triggered and the dealership says nothing is wrong. However, this is a very common issue in 2022 and newer Honda Civics, all models.

STEERING
When driving above 35 MPH, the steering becomes "notchy" or "sticky." For example, when driving straight, the steering wheel will be stuck in the neutral position even when force is applied to the wheel. It takes more force than usual to finally "unstick" the steering wheel, which then jumps further than you anticipate causing you to over-steer and have to correct. Similarly, when the car is turning along a bend, and you let go of the steering wheel, the wheel is stuck in the turn and will not return to center. It will again take extra effort to force the wheel back to center. NO driving assistance features relating to steering (ie. LKAS, LDW) are active when this issue occurs. All driving and steering is being done manually. This is a major safety concern because the car is not steering as anticipated and the over-steering and corrections makes the driving unpredictable and dangerous.

STEERING
Steering wheel is feeling stiffer and stiffer at higher speeds I feel for my safety at times. Seems to be a know issue with all the 2022 civic models and up with the steering rack but Honda doesn’t seem to do anything about.

STEERING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
When traveling straight down the road, most noticeably at interstate speeds, the car will start to drift ever so slightly in one direction. You start adding steering angle to go straight and can feel the electric steering weight ramp up like it should. Then all of a sudden it gets light and corrects back to center, however now you are traveling in the direction the steering is pointing. The feeling is like driving on an extremely windy day where the driver has to fight the steering to keep the car going straight. However this happens at random without warning. It feels like something in the rack is binding up when it gets warm.

STEERING
After driving at highway speeds for some time >10minutes, the steering wheel exhibits a "stickiness" when moving it out of straight ahead. With some extra pressure, the steering wheel then moves, jumping into a turned position, then moving smoothly through its motion. This effect continues for the entirety of the drive. This has been occurring since last fall, but seems to be getting worse over time.
