10/19/2023 NHTSA recall 23v-704, manufacturer recall yfw 10/28/2023--I rented a 2022 Honda Civic from national at airport. Leaving the airport initially I didn't notice an issue.

While continuing to brake, I started to make the left hand turn. About 30-45 degrees into the turn, the car stopped responding to my turning the steering wheel. Lost steering. Car was headed for the ditch and guard rail. I continued to turn the steering wheel left but it had no effect.

Have a 22 Civic touring sedan. Two weeks ago two days in a row I have got a warning that there is a problem with the supplemental restraint saying it’s with the airbag or seatbelt and to shut the vehicle off and to restart and to contact a dealer if it persists. I shut the vehicle off and turn it back on and the error clears. The same thing happened last night after I got home from work and unbuckled my seat belt on 9/29/21. Others on a Honda Civic form online for this year car have reported the same problem and there doesn’t seem to be a fix yet.
