sticky steering while driving above 25 mph. Steering feels as if there is a "catch" in it and will become "stuck" which makes the driver have to make adjustments to the steering wheel to make it "unstick"; especially noticable at highway speed in a sweeping left hand turn. drivers noticed this starting to occur approx. 1000 miles ago, and it is getting progressivley worse. no accident "yet", vehicle has not been seen by a dealer yet. NO warning lamps, indicator lights or messages

The steering sticks/binds when making small corrections in turns. When sticking it requires extra effort to turn, and then will over-correct. Problem seems worst when the steering wheel is turned between 15 degrees or more from center. Problem is intermittent and seems to get worse the farther the car is driven without stopping. Left hand decreasing radius curves seem to be the worst with the wheel sometime snapping/popping back when the accelerator is applied at the exit end of a curve. Maintaining control within my lane in a left turn at 30-70 mph is difficult when problem is most acute. This is definitely a safety issue which is disconcerting at best and dangerous at worst. Sometimes can feel the stickiness even when sitting still and turning the wheel past 20 degrees off-center, with occasional popping noises coming from the steering box. I am very concerned since this problem has gotten markedly worse in the last six months, even though it is still not consistent each time driven. There is definitely something wrong in the steering gearbox with something causing it to bind intermittently.

Rack of rack & pinion requires replacing. I had it checked at a Honda dealership. Problem was diagnosed. Told the part was back ordered until mid-September nationwide. Was told car was drivable. Internet has many reports of -??sticky steering-??. Although drivable, driving is not safe, according to many sources. I am uncertain if Honda covers this cost. It is not a listed recall. However, many reports of this problem exists. I don-??t want my wife or me to be exposed to harm & we could harm others. Honda should take greater efforts to quickly take care of this dangerous situation.

My car has 10,800 miles on it. Yesterday as I was driving, I noticed the steering wheel sticking to where it needed extra force to turn it past that point. This is happening at very low speeds and at highway speeds. There is also a click/clunk noise that sounds like it-??s coming from under the hood whenever this steering issue happens. Having to force the wheel makes me overcorrect which could make me go into another lane. I-??m taking it to a dealer tomorrow. There are no warning lights or messages.

My 2022 CRV has had an intermittent issue where the steering wheel will stick when driving on extended gradual turns such as freeway off-ramps. The sticking steering has caused me to over steer multiple times. I notice that when the issue is present that there is also a creaking noise when turning the wheel. I have brought the vehicle to two different honda dealers and neither has been able to replicate the issue. There are no warning lamps or messages when the problem state occurs.

When vehicle is operating on a curve either going left or right the steering is binding requiring driver to apply force to correct steering. First year had not experienced. This year it is progressively getting worse. Vehicle was purchased June 2022 and now April 2024. I am reading this complaint across multiple on-line platforms for Honda CR-V's.

Steering wheel sticking while driving and requiring more effort to turn

- Andover, MN, USA

My wife's Honda 2022 CRV EXL Steering started sticking at about 10,000 miles September 2023. I got it to dealer last week 4-1-2024 at 15,000 miles and they confirmed Rack and Pinion had to be replaced. The parts are on back order with a September 2024 delivery date! This is unacceptable!! The car is almost and possibly dangerous to drive! Honda has known about this issue for a long time now. Oh and the dealer had 5 cars with the same issue ahead of me with September parts delivery date!!

The steering wheel feels sticky, especially when taking a gentle left curve and also when driving straight. This started happening after about 7500 miles. The amount of force needed to break the stickiness isn't much, but it is unsettling and causes concern. It almost stays in place when releasing both hand from the wheel. I think this should be associated with investigation number EA23003. I brought the vehicle in to the dealer but was told to schedule a diagnostic appointment which has yet to be done. There are no warning lights or alerts concerning this

When driving, the steering "sticks" when making a left turn. You have to forcefully turn it back to the right to straighten the vehicle out. It has been doing this for about 6 months, but has progressively gotten worse. The issue was confirmed at the Honda dealer service shop where we purchased the vehicle. They told us it would cost $2,960 to have it repaired. They said it was the electronic steering gear. The car is out of warranty because of mileage, even though we purchased it new in September of 2022. The service rep said he has at least 10 others waiting on the same repair.

While driving, occasionally the steering wheel becomes sticky or locks while turning. Because its sticky, it can cause to oversteer.

- Saint Johns, FL, USA

When steering along long curves on the highway and then trying to straighten the steering wheel, the steering wheel will feel stuck and take a bit more force to overcome the position it gets stuck at before being able to be straightened out. Adding this amount of force to overcome the stuck steering wheel causes the car to swerve slightly. This typically is observed on sweeping curves to the right. Appears to follow NHTSA inv #EA23003

- Aliso Viejo, CA, USA

The steering wheel will freeze up, and I have to forcibly jerk the wheel to the opposite direction to return directional control. This typically happens at freeway speeds in sweeping right hand turns. This problem has gotten worse over time. Problem not common in left hand turns, or at lower speeds.
