STEERING
Steering feels sticky/stuck at 40mph + after driven for awhile(10min+). Extremely noticeable at highway speeds. I’m feeling like I’m fighting my car to stay in the center of my lane. Safety is hard to maintain, hard to keep in center of lane. We’ve taken it in to dealership and they couldn’t reproduce but never took it on highway. Several phone calls to dealer. I did do the steering column recall. Dealer inspected car for this recall and took pictures to submit to Honda. No warning lights, messages or other symptoms prior to this happening. Drove with no issues until 3-1-2023. Low mileage. I only have about 7,500 on car now. Issue started around 4,000 miles. I never use lane assist. This happens every time I drive the car.

I purchased a 2022 Civic LX in 2022, it now has 75k miles. After 50k or so i started to notice the steering wheel almost start to "stick" & make a popping/clicking noise (different than that of a cv axle) after long highway commutes, for example...im going 30mph on the street & i start to make a turn and i will almost have to kind of force &/or unstick the wheel to align it. I've seen numerous reports on this issue & its quite scary.

This vehicle currently has 10100 miles on it. I noticed that at highway speeds, the steering wheel is sticky/stiff while going straight and requires extra effort to keep the car straight. The steering is not smooth like it should be.

STEERING
My steering wheel seems to feel like it kind of locks up and is hard to release, causing me to yank slightly. It hasn't caused an incident yet, but I believe it will at some point if not checked. I'm going to get it checked out once I have some available time. I do see where 2022- 2023 have possible recalls for a similar issue that sounds exactly like what is happening on mine. This has been doing it for quite some time and doesnt seem to be improving. I only have 67000 miles on my car. Please be aware, thank you.

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
My 2023 civic steering wheel seems to stick when I'm driving. If the wheel is kept straight for a second it "sticks" and requires a good bit of force to become "unstuck". When driving at highway speeds getting it unstuck usually causes it to jerk and in turn overcorrect constantly. There are no warning lights and I currently have an appointment to take it to the dealer for inspection.

STEERING
Sticking steering wheel when driving long distances on the freeway and make long turns getting on and off freeway ramps. I brought my car in for service to Honda before the warranty expired at 36k miles regarding the sticking steering wheel issue, another known recall “Part 573 Safety Recall Report” and an oil change. Honda Escondido advised me that my car was good to go. I brought the vehicle back to Honda with just less than 100 miles over the 36k mark and now they advise me that the vehicle needs repair and I'm outside of the warranty period. This issue needs to be updated to an active recall due to the seriousness of danger this issue could potentially cause. Working with the dealership and corporate to get this matter resolved. *Perform a web search and see how many people are dealing with known issue.

STEERING
When driving, it feels as if the electric power steering is sticking. This has been happening on and off for months but has recently became every time I get behind the wheel. I notice it around 30 mph or higher (the faster I go, the worse it is). I do not feel safe driving my own vehicle. I feel like I always have to correct myself to keep my vehicle in the lane and fear of running off the road, causing an accident or lose control of my vehicle. I have taken my vehicle to my local Honda dealership and they cannot duplicate the issue. I have had 2 mechanics feel it the first time they test drove my vehicle. I have read there is a class action lawsuit for this same exact thing for the exact year, make and model of my vehicle.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
the evaporator of the AC system failed at 48k miles. We live in Houston Texas and AC is not a luxury it's a requirement making the vehicle unsafe to drive in the extreme temperatures. Honda knows that this is an issue and has recalled both the condenser and compressor of the AC system to a ten year warranty. We're asking that the evaporator also be added to the recall. The cost of repair of the item is almost 1700 US dollars. It's a terrible situation. As the car is like new but out of manufacturers warranty being left with a ridiculous repair cost on a part that should last for the lifetime of the vehicle. I have a Toyota that is 13 years old and never had any issues with the AC system. Thank you.

STEERING
Over the past month or so, I've noticed the steering started to feel "off," a bit sticky in the sense that it was a little jerky to maneuver even within the same lane or when making a slight turn of the wheel, like coming off a highway ramp. The car was taken to be checked and it was found to have an issue with the rack & pinion. A warranty inspector confirmed it qualifies for the rack & pinion replacement, so as of today (January 22, 2024), my car is in the dealership waiting for the part, which is on critical back order with an unknown ETA.

STEERING
The steering on my vehicle has started to "stick" in the center. It's only really noticeable when traveling straight at highway speeds. it becomes more difficult to stay within the lane, as the smallest increment I'm able to turn the wheel is larger than the amount I actually need to turn the wheel. So I am constantly over-correcting, causing the vehicle to slowly bounce between the left side of the lane and the right, rarely able to actually stay in the center of the lane. This increases the amount of effort required by the driver to stay inside the lane. almost feel like you're trying to pull two magnets apart to get the vehicle to go in a straight line. The steering almost feels like it's stuck in a rut and you have to pull it out and then it gets stuck again and this is never ending throughout the drive.

STEERING
When I am driving the vehicle at highway speeds 50-65 mph and try to correct steering wheel a little to the left or right it feels stiff and it’s been happening for like a year. This puts other drivers and myself in danger because my steering wheel shouldn’t feel sticky or hard to adjust it while driving in the freeway. Also many other drivers of the same model 22-23 civics have reported the same issues.
