SERVICE BRAKES
Brake pedal has to travel almost to the floor to gain braking traction. Feels like the brakes have 50K miles on them. Car has 7,500 miles currently. Matches the current recall. Dealer would not look at or fix due to my VIN number didn't match up in the recall.

STEERING
When driving I’ve noticed small catches that happens when I am driving. For example If I am traveling in a straight line for a few seconds and have to make a correction( i.e. going around a corner) in my steering, the steering wheel requires a little more effort in order for the car to adjust the direction of travel. My car has 8,44 miles.

STEERING
Steering feels sticky at times. As in, more effort is needed than normal to turn the wheel past a certain point. Most prevalent on the highway where the problem is consistent from 50-65mph. Has been occurring the last couple weeks. Currently at 7,149 miles.

STEERING
Steering wheel began sticking when centered/driving straight, which causes a momentary increase in steering effort. This began around 7,500 miles. The steering wheel, when centered, resists movement in both a counterclockwise and clockwise direction. Firm movement will dislodge it, resulting in a "jerk" in the direction of the turn. The movement required to dislodge it is significantly more firm/forceful than the movement required to turn the steering wheel after dislodging it. The issue is noticeable at a stop, but becomes more pronounced at higher speeds. The Miami Acura service department told me "there is nothing we can do" and that they are "waiting for Acura to tell us what to do because there are a lot of other people with the same issue".

STEERING
Steering becomes sticky & jerky, especially at highway speeds. The usual smoothness disappears & you have to work against it to make mild corrections you normally wouldn’t even notice. I have thought this for many months now, but it was sporadic & caused me to question if I was just being overly sensitive. But I recently updated the audio system per the wireless updates, and today, the steering “stickiness” was egregious. It was pouring rain & that type of jerky motion made it very unsafe to drive. On my way home from work today, the stickiness was gone for the first leg of my trip. Then when I turned on the car to finish the second leg, the stickiness had returned as bad as it was this morning (although no longer raining). CarPlay & even the FM radio also seem to malfunction now as well. I called Acura earlier today & have made a service appointment for 12/27/23, the first opening they had available.

STEERING
The contact owns a 2023 Acura Integra. The contact stated while driving at various speeds and turning the steering wheel to the right or to the left, the steering wheel seized. The contact stated that upon turning the steering wheel to the intended position, the steering wheel pulled out of the intended position and seized. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and was test-driven, and the dealer informed the contact that no failure was found. A software update for the EPS system was performed; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Action Number: EA23003 (Steering). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 17,200.

STEERING
The contact owns a 2023 Acura Integra. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH and attempting to complete a turn, the steering wheel seized, and failed to return to center. The vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a regular failure. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the steering rack. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Action Number: EA23003 (Steering). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 5,000.

STEERING
When driving, particularly at highway speeds, the steering will stick and get tight, it makes the car difficult to maintain in the lane and requires effort to regain control. It is a dangerous condition. It does not always do it and is sometimes worse than others. This began occurring within the first 1,000 miles, now at about 10,000 miles.

STEERING
Steering wheel sticks when making small adjustments at highway speed, which can cause jerking/swerving. Occurs more often in colder weather and after car has been driven for a period of time. Does not happen consistently and was unable to replicate the issue for the dealership. No warning lights on dashboard.

STEERING
At highway speeds while traveling in straight lines, the steering becomes temporarily hard, almost sticky-feeling where even minor adjustments require unusual effort. The wheel feels like it's locked and with noticeable effort becomes unstuck, causing an over-correction. Only noticeable at highway speeds after driving for a while (engine warm).

STEERING
Steering feel is for lack of a better term, sticky in its steering effort. Sometime is is very fluid, and other times it has more resistance. This can happen with a few seconds, or a few minutes. Sometimes the steering wants to pull to one side or the other, and I have to manually correct it. All steering assist features are turned off to verify that there is no computer related interaction affecting the steering feel and response. This happens in all three drive modes. Has manifested it self more as the weather got colder. Even at a stop light, the steering pressure will change, and I will feel more or less resistance in the steering wheel.

STEERING
After driving for a certain amount of time and above 35 mph, the steering wheel becomes sticky when trying to adjust direction of the car. For example if there is a bend on the highway, the steering wheel will be come stuck for a second before applying a little more force to turn the vehicle.

STEERING
While driving at highway speeds in a straight line, the steering wheel stiffens, and takes effort to adjust steering. Also, sometimes while driving at moderate speeds, the steering wheel gets stuck when taking long left turns and does not revert back to center without forcing it back to center with hands.

STEERING
Sticky steering. After warm-up and driving, the steering ‘catches’ in curves and if not caught, it will stay in a turning position. Does this turning either direction and in any Driving Mode. Acura of North Austin refuses to look into it, stating, after driving it 5 miles over a 4-day period, they can’t seem to replicate the issue and now refuses to work with me toward a solution. This steering issue has gradually become worse over time. I’m afraid of the safety issue and unnecessary wear on the tires. Please help if at all possible!

STEERING
Recurring issue where the steering wheel is sticking/not turning smoothly. This feels as though the car may suddenly overcorrect (such as into oncoming traffic or off the road) when the wheel finally snaps into place as you turn it. It is scheduled to go to to the dealer. There are no warning lights or messages.

STEERING
Car has "sticky steering" issue. When turning the wheel, it feels as if the steering wheel sticks in places, and you need to apply more pressure to overcome the sticking before it turns. If it happens unexpectedly, could cause a jerky steering action in the car, which could potentially lead to an accident. This issue has not yet been confirmed by a dealer - we have not taken it in yet. There are no warnings or lamps or anything.

STEERING
When driving down the highway, trying to make small adjustments to keep the car in the lane, the steering wheel does not want to turn. When it does finally turn you can end up swerving. It has 12k miles and it has only started doing this the last 3-4 weeks. This car is only driven on the highway 55-70mph. Took it into the dealership and explained to them that it only happened on the highway. They took it out for a test drive in the city 35-45, so of course they were unable to repeat it and sent me on my way, without inspecting anything else. Driving down a back road highway could easily cause a head-on collision trying to force the steering wheel to move. There are no warnings of any kind when this occurs.
