At about 32,000 miles after making a 5 hour drive I noticed that the steering wheel was starting to stick on long curves. The steering wheel would not return to neutral when released but would hold in its turned position until forced back. The problem was intermittent and first and then became consistent. As it became consistent it would stick in the same way but also started roughly kicking back while turning and making lots of clicking noises when turning. This put my safety at risk because it could lead to a crash if I was unable to turn the wheel or release the wheel when needed. This problem has been recalled in other CRVs just not the 2022 but it is clearly the same issue that is happening in the major recall of the other cars. I brought the car to my dealer and they are replacing the steering rack.

When driving above 40 mph, in conditions above 45 degrees f. The steering is jumpy or sticky. It takes a larger input to steer the car. The steering wheel will jump about an inch. There is no way to steer between the area it jumped over. It leads to swerving down the highway. I went to the dealer concerning recalls on all other years and models. They said I did not qualify due to my vin number not being recalled. I think the steering is a safety issue.

While steering and turning, the wheel continuously feels sticky and there is a clicking and squeaking sound when I begin to turn the wheel. It is available to inspect. This vehicle does not feel safe. I have had to turn the wheel with more effort when changing lanes on the highway causing overcorrection and the brake also slipped when I was braking before turning to get onto a major street. I have taken it to Firestone to get the brakes checked and for routine oil maintenance and a leak in the windshield reservoir. After the oil change, a Firestone service tech recommended maintenance and repairs including an alignment, new brake pads and rotors, so I took it back to Enterprise, the car dealership where I bought this vehicle on December 5, 2024. Enterprise reluctantly took it back to their service department and checked the vehicle's steering and brakes, denying there was anything wrong with either. The manager at Enterprise stated that the sound I was hearing was normal wear and tear on the vehicle but I am still hearing the clicking and squeaking sound and when I turn the wheel it still feels sticky. There have been no warning lights flashing on the dash, but again, the wheel continuously feels sticky, and I have to overcorrect my turns. There is also a clicking and squeaking sound when I turn the wheel.

El volante al girar a lado del pasajero rechina al igual cuando va de reversa, fui con el comerciante BIG O TIRES por porque el ruido es bastante (esa fue la primera vez) no le encontraron nada, pensé que era falta de líquido de frenos, pero después de hacer el chequeo y revisar que estuviera bien igual siguió con el chirrido, luego lo lleve por segunda vez allí mismo a BIG O y encontraron que era un problema con la parte del volante que conecta con el rack and pinion, que lo tenía que llevar al dealership, entonces en eso ando. El parking collision no funciona, con objetos sin movimiento como un carro estacionado atrás, por lo cual si no se pone atención puede causar un accidente.

Steering needs excessive correction

- Utica, NY, USA

The vehicle's steering started to feel harder or sticky when making turns (right turn particularly) since March 2024 (with the mileage around 33500). When making turns, you always feels some resistance or stickness of the wheel or noise especially for some long or sharp turns (ramps on the high ways or big turns). The probably had been on and off but had been consistent recently. We took the vehicle to the dealer on 10/4/24 and they claimed they cannot reproduce the problem but told us that they had been notice the same problems for other CRV and we need to wait for the official recall. Now the problem had been getting worse and it had been affecting the driving and safety when making turns.

Vehicle has steering issues that act up intermittently and sporadic. The steering issue has been intermittent for the past 8 months or so. When I am going around a right-hand curve in the road the steering wheel will get "sticky" or stuck in a certain spot and require more force than is generally required to turn the wheel. In other words, normally the steering is like butter and moves easily and freely in any direction. But when this issue occurs the steering is no longer easy to move but gets stiff or "sticky" in a certain location. Also, if I am making a sharp right hand turn from one street onto another the steering sometimes makes a click noise and I get a vibration and leftwards tugging sensation feeling to the left in the steering wheel. This is also a very intermittent and sporadic problem. I feel this is a safety issue because the "sticky steering" is alarming while you are driving and there is the potential for one to overcompensate and possibly crash. I took the vehicle back to where I bought it in April 2024 for this steering issue. I bought it at JONES HONDA, MANHEIM PIKE, LANCASTER PA. Jones simply told me that they could not duplicate the problem and I should return when the vehicle is experiencing these issues. I returned one week later when the car was acting up for me but the technician rode along and I could not get the car to act up again on our ride. The problem is very intermittent and that makes it especially difficult to get fixed. However, having said that, I don't feel Jones Honda has been honest with me about what they know about similar complaints and I don't feel Jones has made a good faith effort to do what is required to fix the issue. There are no odd warning lights or anything that comes on which might help pinpoint the issue.

I was thrilled to hear that there is a recall for Honda Cr-V steering problems. When I searched my VIN, there is no recall for my car. My steering has been problematic since this summer - there is resistance to turn the wheel when making a turn and at times there is a clicking/sticking noise that happens. HONDA, PLEASE RECALL ALL VEHICLES THAT ARE AFFECTED.

Recently purchased a used 2022 honda crv. We t99k a trip to Denver and I noticed the steering wheel became "sticky" above 35mph. I had to be careful not to overcompensate. I read up on this problem and found out similar models from 22-24 are effected but there's no active recall. I haven't taken it to a dealer yet. Wanted to make the NHTSA aware my vehicle has a similar issue in hopes that something will be done that is not at my expense. The problem still persists since the original discovery. The vehicle has 43000 miles so it is no longer under warranty.

My steering has a "sticky" moment when I try to turn right. It happens after 20 min. drive and is worst on speed over 55 m/h on highway when is difficult to keep the car in lane. I went to Honda dealer 2 times, but because there is no warning light on dash board, they were not concern. They tested my car on back roads on slow speed and when the engine was cold, no more than 5 min. They didn't reproduce the condition when this "sticky steering" happens on my car. This problem happened in my first year of lease after 10,000 miles when it was just a light sticking when turn right. Now after 22,000 miles the problem is worst even a noise as "crack" comes some times from my front wheels. Dealer told 'me they can't do anything until a recall is coming or something happen to my car like a stuck steering. This is not normal to wait until I would have an accident because of power steering

Steering sticking when turning the steering wheel it seems to stick in certain locations

- Okatie, SC, USA

There is a point in the steering system where the wheel sticks momentarily, both left and right. It only happens after driving long distances when the car is fully warmed up. My wife was downright frightened driving it from Missoula to Spokane WA on [XXX] at free way speeds, there are many curves in this road and it stuck repeatedly. She was able to force it past the point of resistance each time but it's very disconcerting. Honda dealer in Spokane test drove it and says it's fine. We are trying to get it in again and demand that the rack and pinion be replaced. I have a video of what it does - after a long drive as I was pulling into the garage it was sticking and I was able to capture it.

The steering wheel sticks when I'm in a gradual turn and doesn't want to return to center. I have to pull it out of the turn. A few times, I've actually veered out of my lane. Sounds like this is a known problem with the worm gear, and the gearbox needs replacing. I have an appointment with my dealer to troubleshoot it.

I am experiencing steering wheel sticking and clunkig after the car warms up and typically 40 minutes into the drive. The dealership has denied this and claimed it was a low voltage issue with the battery. While turning in a gentle curve it sticks and requires more effort to steer and also makes a clucking sound. I am concerned about the ability to control my vehicle and that if the steering sticks I may crash. I have reported the issue with Honda but they say that all I can do is take the car to the dealership for diagnostics. Two different dealerships have had it for extended times and claimed nothing is wrong however I have video of me driving and this occuring on multiple occassions. Honda's denial of this issue will cause injuries to bystanders. No warning lights have come on. The issues began in november of 2023 and are progressively getting worse.

-??Sticky steering-?? Seems like there is an investigation into this already but no recall for the 2022 cr-v. Sticky steering causes the wheel to stick in place and require more force to turn the wheel resulting in dangerous jerky steering at high speeds.
