The steering wheel start shaking, delayed, hard to steer because it was stiff. I had gotten into a collision on the freeway due to not being able to control the steering wheel. There no other vehicle involved in the accident. On October 5th 2024, the recall was issued but I didn’t receive any warnings till I went online to do research. Honda did not reach out in an orderly fashion. The police and my insurance company were both there to aid the situation. There was no warning lamps at all. My vehicle is currently at lia Honda located in albany, NY. It has been 2 weeks since I called to file case with Honda’s headquarters and still have not been assisted.
Power steering rack replacements still defective causing safety concerns while driving. . Have to fight electronic steering, at high speeds steering wheel becomes more difficult to control.
The steering wheel keeps sticking while driving. This is specially dangerous while in a turn because you have to force steering wheel out of the turn and quickly correct the vehicle’s reaction as it becomes unstuck. This is a huge safety issue and is scary to drive like this.
I was getting on the interstate when all of a sudden the collision mitigation assist and lane keeping assist pop up on my dashboard. It was a very scary moment.
This was a single car incident (no other cars involved). The car was going on the 270 degree curved onramp to enter the highway. Lane keep assist (lkas) came on at or near the end of the onramp which caused the vehicle to head from the inside part of the lane/curve towards the left side of the onramp lane/curve and toward the left side retaining wall. Driver attempted to course correct but steering was not responsive in time and the car hit the left side wall completely disabling steering. The car came off the left wall and went across the onramp lane and struck the right side retaining wall before coming to a stop. Airbags did not deploy. Seatbelt may not have locked/tightened at impact with the wall either. Lkas initiated the move into the wall, the steering was stuck/non-responsive or perhaps slow to take driver input. Multiple previous reports to the dealer about steering being problematic were each unable to confirm a problem and this vehicle was not considered part of the existing potentially related recall. The lkas is believed to have engaged with flashing warning just before crash. After the crash, the driver seatbelt "red x" shows on display, a lkas error shows on display, and a supplemental restraint system error shows on the display.
About 30 minutes into a drive the steering wheel or electronic steering will begin to malfunction. When driving at high speeds, you are unable to make small minor corrections to stay center in your lane due to the steering wheel feeling like it’s sticking in one direction. It takes a considerable amount of force in order to make the correction resulting in an over correction. When traveling at high speed this can put the driver and passangers at risk because an over correction can cause the car to lose traction with the road. I’ve taken the car into Honda and it is currently being inspected. They told me yesterday that they were ‘having trouble replicating the problem’ which doesn’t mean the problem isn’t there. As far as I know and seen there have no being any light indicators on.
When driving the car after about 30-35 mph, the steering wheel becomes a tug of war. Steering will continuously get stuck in a certain direction, causing operator to continuously over correct steering. This is becoming more and more of a problem, which is now a danger in driving. The dealership has confirmed the issue after inspecting the system and driving the car. There has not been any warning lights what so ever when this failure started. Honda should be switching drivers out of there cars for newer year. Car has only 9800 miles.
My 2023 Civic steering wheel seems to stick when I'm driving. If the wheel is kept straight for a second it "sticks" and requires a good bit of force to become "unstuck". When driving at highway speeds getting it unstuck usually causes it to jerk and in turn overcorrect constantly. There are no warning lights and I currently have an appointment to take it to the dealer for inspection.
Incident occurs on most highway drives when lane assist is activated and then deactivated. Steering tends to “stick” and not allow smooth motion. Can also be felt at a complete stop from occasion.
The brakes slam on there own causing all safety features to go out and the car to go out of control. This is the 3rd time this has happened in 3 months. The dealership is telling me they won’t look at it for 3 months I could be killed in that time my car is dangerous.
"steering wheel gets sticky above 40 mph. It hard to move the wheel on short notice. It also feels like a resistance on the steering. " staring at 40ish mph, steering becomes sticky and slight corrections become difficult, at higher cruising speeds of 65+ this issue gets worse. Staying in lane can be difficult especially on lanes going from straight to curved. Sticky steering also fights lane assist which causes wheel to overcompensate automatically. Lane departure lost track of center and wouldn't let the driver steer easily. After fighting for control against the system.
Power steering is sticky at highway speeds resulting in a delayed wheel centering via suspension caster. Does not resist manual input, but makes the vehicle difficult to keep centered in lane due to constant driver inputs to overcome "sticking".
•problems occurring with steering. Even when assisted living keeping is off, the steering will try to throw me out of the lane where I have to constantly have a good grip to try stopping it from swerving the vehicle I tend to notice it more on highways especially in areas where the black line is on the road from lanes shifting over due to construction. •I believe it can be a huge safety risk that can cause an accident if someone isn’t fully attentive to the problem and not holding the steering wheel hard enough. •no warning lights or messages regarding parts affected by the problem. • the problem has not been reported , inspected, nor confirmed by the dealer and/or other parties. •I noticed the problem start around or before 1000 miles (my first month having the car).
Steering feels weird and has over corrected. Sometimes sticky and wandering. Car has 25 miles on it. Odd steering feedback . I am very concerned about the safety of a car I just paid 60k for.
The lane keeping assistant is glitchy. When driving with lane keeping assistant turned on if I pass a turning lane the car tends to want to veer of into the turning lane. The biggest problem is that it takes a really firm tug on the wheel to actually stay in the correct lane and has caused me to over correct a few times veering slightly into the opposite lane. This has happened multiple times.
