STEERING
During driving, the steering wheel seems to catch, or stick--it is not smooth. This seems to be primarily a highway speed occurrence. When this happens it also seems like you have to constantly make small adjustments to steering. This mostly seems to happen after we have been on the road for a while. It first happened 3 weeks ago on a longer drive. Then it happened again last week, again on a longer drive. Also on a shorter drive a couple of weeks ago, but the speeds were higher than in-town, around 50 mph. I took it to the dealer yesterday. I noticed the catching on the drive down, but it was not continuous, as it was the other times. The car was taken out on the highway and driven by a mechanic, who stated he did not experience the problem. Our car now has around 9000 miles on it.

STEERING
The steering wheel is sticking when driving. From the center driving position, turning in either direction more than 1 degree causes the steering wheel to stick requiring you to push hard which causes it then to jump and most often over steer. I think this is a dangerous issue since it requires you constantly correct the over steering that occurs during normal driving. I took the vehicle back to a Honda dealer who has confirmed the issue is the steering rack assembly and that it needs to be replaced. It appears to be a large scale problem for Civic and CRV vehicles with the part being on back order with no expected delivery date. I have been on this backorder list for 4 weeks without any idea of a delivery date.

STRUCTURE

The contact stated that after the recall repair was performed on the vehicle, the vehicle was bouncing off the road surface while driving over uneven or bumpy road surfaces, nearly causing him to lose control of the vehicle. The dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 92,000.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Since I have purchased this vehicle in 2017, there have been numerous 'random' occasions while I am driving and the car's dashboard will flash "BRAKE"3X or "BRAKE" 3X with the warning beeps...these occasions have occurred while driving at speed over 50mph but there was no vehicle or object in front of me. Twice, I have been driving and the car has flashed "BRAKE"3x and beeped and applied the emergency brakes---but there was nothing in front of my car & thank goodness there was no one behind either. I don't know why it does it at random times, maybe it's the way the sun beams on the car, just at the right angle, to alert the brake system. Either way, it's caused me to use extra caution and turn off the Automatic Break System every time I enter the car ( If I remember) I am available for inspection upon request. I've read articles online about this problem with the Honda CRV 2017.

STEERING
Our new CRV developed "sticky" steering within months of being new. Periodically, the steering wheel will momentarily catch when making minor steering adjustments, requiring additional force to make the wheel respond. In heavy traffic, especially at highway speeds, this creates a dangerous situation, preventing subtle steering changes and often causing oversteering when exerting the extra force. The issue was diagnosed by the dealership, Honda of Cleveland, TN, in mid November and a new steering rack was ordered. However, the replacement part is currently not available until September '24. The dealership says that the vehicle is safe to drive so no other solution has been offered. The problem continues to worsen, but the vehicle is the only source of transportation for my wife to commute to work and for our entire family to travel on extended trips, so we have no option but to drive it.

STEERING
Power steering rack failure at approximately 9000 miles. The problem was reproduced at the service center. There were no warning messages, lights, etc. The car developed very jerky steering making it difficult to maintain lane with ease. The car has been at the dealer since December 6, 2023 and the part is backordered. Part is not expected until September 2024.

STEERING
While driving on 3.5 hour trip through the mountains found that the steering wheel was stiff and the car difficult to control, especially on steep slopes with curves. Had to slow way down and grip the steering wheel with significant force. Felt like driving an old manual steering pick-up truck. The stiff steering has made driving in narrow lanes difficult as it feels like I am always having to over-correct the wandering.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
I was driving going about 30 in town and there were no cars, no pedestrians, no obstacles and all of a sudden my car's dashboard flashed brake and my car braked itself. We went from 30 to zero with a screech. I did not touch the brake during this time. It was unnerving and nothing like this has happened before. I commute on the freeway regularly and I am very scared this could happen at much higher speeds with deadly consequences.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
The Object Approaching Warning alarm came on at two times when stopped at an intersection stop light. The first time was when an oncoming vehicle was approaching in the center of the intersection. The second time this occurred was when my vehicle was stopped for a stoplight with all surrounding cars stopped and not moving. If the collision mitigation system was working and the system activated when driving, it is my understanding that the vehicle should emergency brake causing a possible collision by a following vehicle. Took the vehicle to a dealer who stated that that they could not duplicate the problem and that they would no longer work on the vehicle for ANY repeat issues that they were not able to duplicate or confirm in the past creating further safety issues for myself and other drivers.

AIR BAGS
There was no incident involved. The airbags on passenger side are not working, according to alert on dash. I inherited this car from my deceased husband who purchased the car in Paramus, NJ. I thought this problem was fixed by the dealer at some point, but evidently was not. The car is now registered in NC, where I live. Thank you for any help you can give me to correct this problem.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
-The Collision Mitigation System (CMS). - The CMS system has deployed numerous times over the last six months (approximately) without warning for no reason. The last time, I was traveling at approximately 45-50 mph and without warning and with no car within 100 yards of my vehicle, the brakes were automatically applied taking my speed instantaneously down to less than 10 mph, creating a very unsafe situation, especially if there had been a car traveling closely behind. -The vehicle was brought to a Honda dealer who ran tests and said there were no code errors. I was told that if the system applied the brakes that it proves that it is working correctly, even though I argued that they may technically be working but not appropriately. -Yes it was seen at a Honda dealer. -There were no warning signals when this occurred. It was totally out of the blue and caused a whiplash affect. -In my opinion this is a very dangerous situation and luckily it has not been serious any of the times it has happened to date. I would hate for it to be serious in the future and cause serious or fatal injuries. Currently we have to manually shut off the CMS every time we are driving.

STEERING
I own a 2023 Honda CR-V EX-L AWD and I'm experiencing a concerning issue with the steering system. The steering wheel feels "sticky" and lacks the smooth operation expected. While driving, this stickiness becomes pronounced, requiring excessive pressure and torque to maneuver the wheel properly. This has led to instances of oversteering, posing a significant risk of accidents or mishaps. Despite replicating the issue at the dealership, they've dismissed it as "NO CONCERN." However, I'm aware of numerous complaints to the NHTSA regarding this same issue. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter thoroughly and compel Honda to replace the EPS steering rack in affected vehicles promptly to prevent potentially severe accidents.
