STEERING
Periodically when traveling at 30 MPH and higher, the steering becomes difficult to make adjustments when going straight or negotiating curves. There’s a sticky sensation which requires higher efforts to overcome. I’ve taken my car into the dealer on two occasions, but they were unable to replicate the problem. The problem is often but sporadic.

STEERING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING
•Problems occurring with steering. Even when assisted living keeping is off, the steering will try to throw me out of the lane where i have to constantly have a good grip to try stopping it from swerving the vehicle I tend to notice it more on highways especially in areas where the black line is on the road from lanes shifting over due to construction. •I believe it can be a huge safety risk that can cause an accident if someone isn’t fully attentive to the problem and not holding the steering wheel hard enough. •no warning lights or messages regarding parts affected by the problem. • The problem has not been reported , inspected, nor confirmed by the dealer and/or other parties. •I noticed the problem start around or before 1000 miles (my first month having the car)

STEERING
The steering intermittently sticks. While driving, both at speed and slow speeds, there is a noticeable sometimes unnerving sticking that occurs, where I have to push the wheel to get it to return to wheels straight. I can reproduce while stopped when it occurs. When driving at highways speeds it makes keeping the car driving straight difficult and i have to be careful to not over push the wheel for fear of losing control.

While driving at highway speeds the steering wheel becomes what feels like locked and becomes very stiff. Almost as if the power steering is no longer working. This in turn causes me to have to forcefully steer the steering-wheel sometimes over correcting.

STEERING
The steering wheel sticks at the 12:00 position when driving at cruising speeds. Then, I have to use force to adjust the steering wheel while tracking down the road. The steering wheel breaks free and causes me to oversteer in that direction and I have to quickly steer back. It happens 50% of the time I’m driving over 60mph.

STEERING
Electronic Power Steering Gear Box. See TSB 23-037. Steering does not respond as it should. When driving either in a straight line or in a turn, the EPS (electronic power steering) motor fails to sufficiently adhere to driver input (left or right turn). Problem was witnessed by service manager Tony Rocha of Ed Morse Honda 3790 W Blue Heron Blvd, Riviera Beach, FL 33404, (561) 508-8639. Tony drove my car with 36,616 miles and agreed that the steering is "sticking". In order to maintain a lane or make turns, extra force application is required by driver resulting in extremely dangerous oversteering. I am afraid to drive because I cannot sufficiently maintain control of the vehicle. The part has not been inspected because Honda does not employ electrical engineers at their service centers and no mechanic is qualified to understand this system. The only way to identify the problem part is through the symptoms of sticking steering as outlined in TSB 23-037. No warning message or code appears. The problem is persistent not intermittent. It is important to note that Honda recently issued recall 23V-703 in regards to incorrect stroke length of steering rack but this is a separate issue that is being confused/conflated by the service department. Problem is apparent from a standstill and at all speeds. Problem persists with or without LKAS and Lane Departure Mitigation.

STEERING
I have not had any issues related to the current recall of hearing a rubbing noise from the tires due to a steering rack issue. I am having a problem with the power steering. At speeds above 45 MPH, the steering is "STICKING or BINDING" and I am having to use excessive pressure to get the steering to return basically to the "CENTER" position. This is very noticeable at freeway speeds when trying to keep the vehicle centered in the lane. It is also noticeable on curves, like when merging on an on-ramp. At times, I don't notice this as much when it is colder outside, like in the mornings but DO notice it when it is warmer outside, like when I am headed home from work iin the late afternoon. I have an appt with my Honda Dealer on 11-4-2023 for the new open recall and plan on bringing this steering issue to their attention.
