Bought demo 2010 Honda Civic ex in December 2010, so it was virtually new. Problem began occurring around the beginning of September 2012, when the mileage of car was approximately 53,000. Upon ignition, the noise coming from the engine was a higher-pitched whir than I was accustomed to. This higher-pitched whir would worsen as I accelerated and as I turned corners. Thought I just needed to allow the car to warm up. That solution did not work. Took the car into the Honda dealership where I bought the car. I was told that there was a leak in the power steering rack, and that this leak was draining into my wheel boots, by which I'm guessing he meant steering rack boots. I do not have good knowledge of cars. Was told that somehow the drainage of power steering fluid into my steering boots was creating this high-pitched whir. For the few weeks this noise was occurring before I brought it into the dealership there were no signs of leaks under my car. Was told that until the steering boot was completely saturated with power steering fluid that there would not have been any signs of leakage under the car. Fortunately the Honda care warranty covers this repair. Though I don't know if it's the extended warranty that I bought at the time of purchase. Car is being repaired as I type this. Will post again if I learn of any additions.

When my boyfriend took the car in for 30,000 mile service he mentioned that the power steering fluid was low. Honda claimed there was no leaks. At 46,980 miles they determined power steering rack had internal leak causing low fluid and damage to pump. Honda would not confess to the power steering being faulty and refused to pay for replacement of rack and pinion and pump.

Purchased 2007 Honda Civic ex on 3/10/07. On 8/7/07 took car in for routine maint. Oil pan drain plug replaced. On 8/9/07 steering system made noise when turning. Took to dealer, no problem found. On 10/8/07 took car back to dealer with same issue. Dealer said "during assembly some rear wheel speed sensors may have been improperly installed and do not seal the hub assembly. Sensors were inspected and they deemed no repair necessary. On 12/26/07 took car to dealer for same noise when turning wheel. Steering wheel locked up when driving!! when accelerating, car made a whining type of noise. Dealer kept my car over night and found p/s pump whining due to no fluid in system. P/s rack was leaking. Power steering reservoir was empty. Found power steering rack leaking from both ends. Replaced power steering rack and realigned wheels. On 7/7/08 took car to dealer, steering wheel locked up again while driving. Still have noise when turning the steering wheel back and forth. Dealer kept my car for 3 days without giving a loner to me. When dealer did diagnostic, they pulled up 7 codes and stated "gauge control lost communication, may be old codes related to past repairs. Did not find a cause for steering to lock. Found that the noise when turning the wheel was caused from the seal at the firewall was rubbing on steering shaft. Corrected insulation and found when at idle and turning wheel, hood vibrated and made a noise. They adjusted rubber stoppers and rechecked saying it is all ok. Now, today on 7/17/08 I had steering wheel lock up on me for a brief second. Took my car to a mechanic I know and they told me to fill out this form. They said the noise I hear in my steering column should have been fixed by dealer. I called dealer at 3 pm today and will be taking my car back to dealer tomorrow morning at 9. My car is still randomly having the steering freeze on me when driving, the noise when turning my steering wheel, and I now have a crackling noise in my a/c!.

I purchased a 2006 Honda Civic lx in the us and brought it to korea with me a few months ago. I, however, just found out that the power steering fluid has been leaking and was told that the power steering pump should be replaced soon cause it might leads to an accident if it's not fixed. I am pretty sure that this part must be defected in the beginning but the problem for me is that the Honda would not fix it with free of charge because I purchased it in the us and it's in korea now. I don't think it's fare for consumers (cause it should have been still under the factory warranty). Is there any way I can get it fixed with free of charge??.

I purchased a 2006 Civic ex in December of 2005. Within 3 months, the right driver side a/c vent started to rattle as well as around both driver side and passenger seat belt adjusters. I took the vehicle to the dealership who replaced the vent but could not located the noise by the seat belt adjusters. At this time, they also found that the power steering fluid had been leaking and repaired this was well. At my next schedule oil change, I complained about the a/c vent rattling more than before the and the rattling around the seat belt height adjusters had increased. They installed a new a/c vent for the second time. They also were able to determine after taking off the panel where the seat belt adjusters are located, that it was poorly insulated and added felt tape. The new a/c vent is more sturdy than the original and first replacement so it no longer rattles. The felt tape insulation has also stopped the seat belt adjuster from rattling. However in the last few weeks I have additional rattling which I have located to inside of ceiling directly behind the moon roof.

Power steering fluid leaks inside the car underneath the steering wheel, and the container for the fluid runs very low. The vehicle will need a power steering rack which is a front end part. I was told it is safe to drive. I feel uncertain. To assure that no other part will go bad, it is neccessary to have the problem dealt and the part fix. Especially knowing that I transport my son and nephew to and from school. It is possible that anything can transpire, eventhough I am told it is safe. I am uncomfortable with driving , but it is my vehicle and I need to get to work, school and drop my son and nephew to thier school, etc. In addition, when acelerating from 1st to 2nd the vehicle is harsh, when warm.

Vehicle was taking in for a squealing sound coming from front end. Dealer replaced fluid at 300 miles. Noise came back, and the dealer replaced power steering pump at 3,000 miles. As vehicle reached 4,500 miles, noise was back. Vehicle could lose power steering which would affect consumer's driving ability. Dealer will not give consumer a loaner until work was done on vehicle. Service technician advised consumer not place vehicle in driveway because it was leaking.
