STEERING
The vehicle is not going straight on the freeway. Constantly veering to the left and have to adjust but sticks and have to jerk steering wheel to stay straight. Typically happens after driving for more than 10 miles. Going around left curves will veer to adjacent lanes or wall and have to quickly adjust. Have many times veered into other lanes while other vehicles are in the lane and being honked at. No warning lights, messages have appeared. Took it in to dealer to inspect and confirmed that the Electronic Power Steering rack not correctly working and needs to be replaced. This should not be happening on a 2 year old car. If by replacing the parts and the part is the issue, there is no sense in replacing every several years and will get very expensive for the consumer. Honda is waiting till warranty is expired so consumer have to bear the cost as the manufacturer should be aware of all the complaints while doing nothing to fix the issue people are having. This issue is not a safe driving condition as the vehicle veers to other lanes.

Sticky steering wheel at low and high speeds, particularly on turns. There’s now an accompanying clicking noise. I know loads of other people experiencing same issue. Definitely not safe on highways.

STEERING
The electrical power steering system can sometimes make steering feel very sticky, which can be unsafe. This stickiness happens because the system may resist turning movements, making it hard to steer smoothly. On the highway, this can lead to jerky motions as you struggle to maintain control. This issue compromises safety by making steering unpredictable and difficult.

The steering sticks and pulls the car. It stops responding to correction after a while. It is going to cause an accident. It's uncontrollable at times.

STEERING
2022 Honda Civic Sport sedan has a sticky steering wheel. The steering will stick when turning on the highway or when accelerating to highway speeds. When I need to correct it, the steering wheel will jerk back and swerve the car often into the other lane or off the road. This is incredibly dangerous and should not be happening to a car this new. After research online I see thousands of other people having the same issue.

When driving, especially at higher speeds the steering becomes sticky. It is hard to make minor adjustments and is incredibly unsafe as it at times snaps back when trying to turn in either direction.

STEERING
My car which is less than 3 years old has faulty electronic power steering assembly. I took the car to Honda service and they confirmed that its faulty and needs replacement. I was quoted $3500 to fix it since im out of warranty. Contacted Honda Motor corporation and they refused to help me get this replaced. Steering get stuck on the highway speed while going around curves and makes it very difficult to break loose from the stuck position. I almost got into an accident while trying to break loose from the stuck position. My service representative confirmed that all 2022-2023 has this issue or will have this issue as the milage goes up. In my case i always had this issue but i thought it was the lane keep assist feature that is correcting itself. This vehicle needs to be recalled for the power steering.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Usually in the mornings there is a loud sound that comes out of the vents. I have it recorded. It sounds somewhat like crackling. One time when my car was in the shop I was given a loner of the same type of car and I heard it in that car as well. Today was the most recent occurence. 6/12/24.

STEERING
My steering wheel will stick and I will have to lightly jerk it to get it right. Usually when I'm on the highway but at other times too. It seems to be getting worse. Last year, I told the Honda dealership where I purchased the car about tje problem but they saw nothing wrong but I can feel there is a problem. It is a safety issue because the wheel should not stick while Im driving and having to jerk it out of the stuck position is also unsafe. No warning lights come on and I do not use lane assist. I have my kids in the car so their safety is also at risk. Today is the most recent day it happened. 6/12/24

STEERING
Steering is sticking as you are driving down the road. It almost has the same sensation with pulling away from you as if you have lane assist on. We have turned lane assist off because it only makes the steering worse. I feel like it could cause an accident at some point because I can see where a driver may overcorrect especially with it happening going around a curve. This is my daughter's car. Apparently there is no recall on this specific problem at this time. My older daughter's 2023 Honda Civic has the same issue and is currently waiting on a backordered part so that it can be fixed under warranty.

STEERING
The steering on the vehicle is "sticky" or "grabby". It is especially noticeable when trying to drive in a straight line at highway speeds. Car cannot be steered smoothly, but can only be steered with little jerks to the wheel. First noticed the problem after about 4,000 miles, and it has been an issue pretty consistently since then. Currently have about 31,000 miles on the vehicle. When reported to the dealer, they stated they had no reports of the issue and offered to run a diagnostic, which I declined at the time due to cost.

STEERING
When you drive the Civic, sometimes the steering wheel gets stuck and you have to apply a good amount of force to “unstick” the wheel and it’s not very pleasant especially with passengers. It’s more dangerous on long highway roads where it curves because my car’s steering wheel gets locked even stronger and you have to be more aggressive to unlock and it’s very dangerous if you overpower the steering and hit something next to you.

STEERING, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
22-24 Honda civic Steering rack recall I feel to have no control of my vehicle and that my life as well as others are put at risk. I took my car to Honda for the safety inspection for the active recall they falsely dismissed according to Honda corporate. Nothing has been inspected other than my safety inspection when the dealership passed my car. I scheduled an appointment for a diagnosis as corporate told me to do after speaking to them, but the dealer didn’t do the diagnosis on my vehicle they just drove it and said it’s driving normal but once we returned they ordered a whole new steering rack for my vehicle after the service department passed my vehicle, but then informed me they sent the steering rack back and that I needed to go to the dealership I purchased my car from which is 41 minutes away after I stated the driving conditions of my vehicle and the potential risk to myself as well as others on the roadway.”refusal of service” Lane departure signal this started 1/17/24 to be exact but has became more of a quite frequent issue since then.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
All of the lights come on periodically (lane departure can’t be used, it says braking system error, it says braking system could be decreased and says to have car serviced) I’ve taken it to the dealership once and they could not replicate it and said it could be a sensor but wasn’t sure I paid for a inspection because they didn’t know. Searching things now there are a ton of forums with the same problem for the same model and make.

STEERING
When driving at highway speed, the steering wheel will not continuously go straight it gets stuck a little the to the left or right and I have to constantly adjust the feeling is like a sticky feeling, it has nothing to do with alignment it is the steering wheel, it is almost as if the lane control sensor is on but it is not I have turned it off, it causes me to overcompensate and overcorrect the steering, dealership of course says they cannot replicate problem. Also when at a complete stop there is a grinding sound in the steering column.
