UNKNOWN OR OTHER
There is a separation from the windshield and the A frame on the drivers side. The car has been in multiple times and the service department cannot fix the problem because they claim it is a manufacturers defect. American Honda is saying that because it is "a manufacturing defect", they are not obligated to fix it and there is no fix available and I have no recourse.

STEERING
While driving at highway speeds around 60-65 mph, the steering feels "sticky". It takes more effort than normal to move the steering wheel and correct course. Rarely, the steering wheel does not return to the center position after a long sweeping curve on a highway and needs to be jerked back slightly to get it to return to center. This tends to happen around an hour or more into a long drive, usually when it's warm weather. For reference, the car only has around 6500 miles on it.

STEERING
Steering wheel is “sticking” at highway speeds. When driving straight, I have to lightly force the wheel to get it to click out of where it was last place. It ends up jerking the wheel to get it out of this stuck position.

STEERING
Sticky steering wheel that jerks after I reached 6500 miles, it feels dangerous and causes me to swerve.. to the point people beep at me thinking I’m not paying attention but I’m trying to stop the jerking from happening

STEERING
Sticky steering observed at highway speed. Steering wheel would lose power assist or feel sticky or jerkiness briefly by giving steering wheel a very slight turn to either the left or right at highway speed when going straight. Complaint to dealer and already replaced steering rack under warranty once at 10000 miles. Problem seems to have come back again after driven the newly replace steering rack for 5000 miles. Right now, problem would come and goes intermittently already contact dealership for appointment to troubleshoot the issue.

STEERING
Steering produces a sticking sensation, specifically when traveling at speed on straight roads and slight steering adjustments are needed to correct course. When attempting to make the adjustments, more effort is needed for a very short amount of time, to get the steering to unstick. It ranges on severity from very minute to quite a bit of force needed to steer from straight. Dealer looked at the problem and said they could not reproduce the effect. I took tech for a ride and had them feel when it was happening when I was driving. The tech felt it, but said that was “normal”. Vehicle has not been independently inspected as I took to dealer because it is still under warranty. No warning lights have occurred.

STEERING
Same issue with the '22/'23 Honda Civic, which the Integra is based on -- "sticky steering". AutoBlog reported on it at https://www.autoblog.com/2023/03/21/nhtsa-honda-civic-sticky-power-steering-investigation/.

STEERING
The steering wheel sticks at times. Driving straight and in turns. It's a slight stick, but increasingly more noticeable. While driving straight it happens if I don't touch the wheel for a few seconds. Then I'll need to make a minor correction and it's stuck. I have to put some decent pressure on the wheel to make it unstuck, which causes an over-correction. If i steadily make corrections it doesn't stick. Same in a turn. If I am making a slow or wide turn, wheel stays in same position for a second, it doesn't just roll out of the turn easily. I have to force it to come out of the turn. Again once it's unstuck it feels fine. Leaving it in one position for more than a second or two initiates the stuck.

STEERING
Car at around 3K miles. The steering at higher speeds >40mph started to stick and takes some force to steer. It is most noticeable when driving in a straight line and the steering wheel will require some force to turn but then will be more fluid. But then returning to a straight line causes the same sticky feeling. Because the steering sticks, it requires an overcorrection when trying to adjust directions.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I have the Integra Aspec CVT model. It's been 8 months since I bought it, it's close to 10k miles and it was a week ago that it suddenly started to turn off completely as if it were like hard reset. It has already happened to me 7 times. Sometimes he doesn't want to turn back on quick so I have to wait couples minutes before trying to turn it on again and on the screen I get the alert to turn it on with the remote key but my car doesn't have that option. I don't get any error alert in the tachometer, only that suddenly everything is turned off, both the engine and the electrical components.

STEERING
This has started after approximately 5,000 miles on the vehicle. At highway speeds the steering wheel will feel sticky and/or jump when trying to apply small inputs. For example, after a few seconds of holding the steering wheel in a straight position or in a constant long radius turn, the steering wheel is resistant to movement and increased force is required to bring the steering back to center. This results in small over-corrections leading to a slight weaving while trying to stay in a lane.

STEERING
I have noticed that the steering wheel seems to "stick" or feel "notchy" when making small adjustments from center (12 o clock) position. This is most noticeable when driving on a long, straight stretch of freeway requiring minor adjustments to keep the car centered. The steering will stick when attempting to making small corrections, requiring extra force to overcome resistance. After providing more force, the steering will suddenly give way, typically causing overcorrection in the opposite direction

STEERING
While driving at highway speeds (45-75 mph) the steering will begin to stick. The steering wheel requires extra force to make an adjustment. After getting past the friction point, the steering is normal but will soon gain the friction point back. On highway ramps, the steering will hold the turn without any additional pressure and fails to return to the straight position. Added force required to get it back to straight.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
For the 6th time, my 2023 Acura Integra A-Spec with the 6spd manual transmission has completely shut off. While the immediate thought might be that I stalled or the auto stop/start engaged, that's not the case here. The car completely shuts off. Almost like a hard reset, the engine dies, and the electrical system shuts down. In several of the cases, some features like lights, still work. But in others, everything dies. Locks, radio, wipers, lights. It takes awhile to restart the car. This happens when I come to a complete stop and then when I put my foot on the clutch and on the gas. This has happened in warm and cold Temps (ranging from 25°F to 75°F ). In 3 of the cases, the auto stop/start (acura calls it idle stop or something) was disengaged/turned off because I was in sport mode. Plenty of gas in the tank. The car is brand new, not even 4 months old with 14000 miles. Each incident has nearly resulted in an accident.

STEERING
I was driving on December 19, 2022 and noticed difficulty steering at cruising speeds (45mph). The steering became resistant to small movements. It did not move smoothly when I turned it to make minor adjustments, it required extra force to move from a still position. Once I applied enough force to turn, it turned freely. At low speeds such as turning in a parking lot, I did not notice any problems, but upon reaching approx 40mph, I did notice the problem. This makes the vehicle more difficult to operate in an unexpected manner and makes a collision more likely, thus putting the safety of myself, my passengers, and other drivers at risk. There were no warning lamps or messages. The only related symptom was that the CarPlay navigation display was not updating regularly during this drive. Normally this system works well, but on this day it was updating my position every 30 seconds or so. When I unplugged the USB cable between my iPhone and the vehicle, the steering issue disappeared. Additional details provided here: https://www.integraforums.com/forum/threads/sticky-jerky-steering-carplay-usb-related.50610/#post-823807 The contact stated that the issues they are experiencing are similar, if not the same, as the Honda Civic and Honda Civic Si.
