Steering wheel is notchy, when I drive the steering wheel sticks and there doesn't want to turn making the car weave. Also when it's in park and you try to turn the steering wheel slowly it shakes and jitters. Car feels very unsafe while driving

Steering issue- once warmed up and at higher speeds (noticed on highway) car pull left and right. Must use force to correct merging of the car. Response time is low when you try to correct the car back into your lane. Almost feels like the wheel is sticking. Car only has 34K miles- no reported accidents. No damage to steering that I can see. Many sites have similar complaints that were found by a search

Steering becomes very resistant to input at highway speed (60mph +) requiring considerable force to overcome often resulting in over correction. Has been happening intermitantly since passing the 50000 mile marker.

I have a 2016 Honda Civic and about 4 months ago, while driving I noticed mostly on the interstate, that my steering wheel would get "sticky". I had taken my car in for an oil change and I addressed my concern to the mechanic. When I came back he told me him and all of his technicians drove the car and no one had a clue as to what I was talking about. Over time it has gotten worse. It happens after driving at interstate speed for about 20 minutes. Only when the steering wheel is positioned 100% straight. When you pull to one side, and it never matters left or right because it's both sides, it's like its stuck or pulling against you, like a resistance. Then it suddenly let's go and it jerks. And then it's back the other way. So you're fighting the steering wheel the whole time driving while you're jerking back and forth side to side all over the lane. And it doesn't have to be just interstate. Due to being a single mom and not having the "time off work" as well as no one believing me, here I am about 4 months later and it's so much worse. It's also summer now which I notice it's also at its worst when its blazing temperatures. It's gotten so bad that I can actually hear a noise now when it does it. I've looked this up because I felt like people thought I was crazy and with the amount of people reporting this safety issue, I can't figure how this hasn't been a recall. I understand things on vehicles need to be replaced after a while. They need maintenance and they cost money. But for this widespread issue on the same car and nothing is being done?! I bought a Honda for the name, for the quality, and for the customer service, but at this point, that it's being looked over, I'm on the verge of trading it in for something other than a Honda.

Sticking stering wheel. My steering "sticks" after I've been driving for about 20-30 mins at around 40/45+ mph when temperature is above 70F. Take your hand off the wheel on a slight curve and it stays with the curve. Trying to do a slight correction when it's like this and it literally sticking in place for a sec then allows the wheel to turn more freely.

The contact owns a 2016 Honda Civic. While driving 45 mph, the steering wheel became difficult to turn and seized. The contact called rick case Honda (located at 15700 rick case Honda way, davie, fl 33331, (954) 388-1035) and notified them of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 46,000.

So I just bought a 2016 Honda Civic LX 2.0 used today with 26,000 miles. The dealership was a little over an hour away and about 30 minutes into my drive home I noticed the steering felt like it was sticking on the highway at around 65mph. It felt notchy and sticky like I had to use a little force to start being able to steer again. Which causes you to overcorrect a bit. This is a huge safety concern on the highway. I looked it up and there's like thousands of people talking about the exact same problem.. the solution seems to be a new steering rack assembly...

Steering wheel sticks (resistance to turning) when car is warmed up. Most notable at highway speeds.

- Aventura, FL, USA

When driving the steering wheel starts to get a sticking feeling when trying to make small movements. This causes you to overcorrect your steering and is a serious safety issue because you can potentially run into another person or object. You feel a clicking in the steering wheel and it is most notable at higher speeds. The problem seems to worsen the more you drive. My car only have 32000 miles on it.

When temperature spikes hit the area I live in the steering seems to stick slightly when driving.

I have a 2016 Honda Civic ex, I was on the road for about 30 minutes in motion driving straight when the steering became hard like it was sticking. I got on the interstate and accelerated the faster I got the worse it got.it's pulls me to the left and then to the right. I then lowered my speed to 50 but it still continued to do this and has now gotten worse it never stops and is very hard to keep in one lane.know therhas been recalls on the 2017 Honda Civics for the exact same reason. This is a huge safety hazard. I have found that it will eventually lock up and has already caused accidents. I don't want to cause anyone any injuries or god forbid someone lose their life. It's getting alot worse. Will notify Honda. Immediately!

The steering wheel sticks when driving on the highway. It feels like the steering wheel is catching when you are trying to keep the car in the lane. When it releases, you have to correct the steering quickly in order to stay in the lane. This a constant problem. There are no times when this does not happen. This is a huge safety risk especially when on a 2 lane highway and there is an oncoming car in the other lane.

- St Augustine, FL, USA

Was driving the car to an interview & I was probably a block from home. I was at a stop & when I began to accelerate & turn left the steering wheel locked mid drive & caused me to crash into a curb.

- Los Angeles, CA, USA

The steering started 'sticking' in place at interstate speeds. When driving it feels like there's a catch in the steering wheel when you try to maintain a lane and you have to turn the wheel to the right and then left to stay in a lane. You have to forcefully overcome this sticking resistance which causes the car to veer toward the other lane and this process is continually repeated as you drive. It is a huge safety issue because it seems to want to push me into oncoming traffic on 2 lane roads. Surprised there is no recall because I see many of the same complaints on nhtsb and in online Honda forums, the common resolution seems to be replacement of factory defective eps hardware.

- Cape Canaveral, FL, USA

After driving for approximately 30 minutes, steering becomes erratic. Wheel takes force to turn initially, causing over-correction when trying to drive straight. This problem is consistently reproducible. Car is with dealer now to fix.

- Daphne, AL, USA

When driving on highway today around 60 mph it felt like the steering was sticking on me. When I would try to correct my steering left or right it would feel stuck for a second then it would go. Seems very dangerous and needs to be a recall on this.

When I pulled into my driveway last night after work, my car dash lit up with alerts, one after another. I tried turning the vehicle off and on, and the lights did not go away. They are still on today. They were emissions system problem, brake system problem, brake hold system problem, power steering system (eps) problem, vehicle stability assist (vsa) problem, and hill start assist problem. I took a video of the alerts. I will try to upload a picture.

- Eagan, MN, USA

After driving for 30+ minutes, I notice my steering wheel sticking in place, when I need to slightly move or turn the wheel I have to apply force and it almost causes me to over correct and veer into another lane. If gets worse to longer I drive and with the weight of passengers in the vehicle. I have read the same issue from others and they have said this is possibly a power steering issue.

Steering is sticky and hard to maintain lane at freeway speeds

I'm glad I found this thread I have a 2016 Honda Civic ex-T. after I've been driving 10 or 15 minutes, mostly on a highway, suddenly the car begins to veer slightly one way or another. When I go to correct, the steering wheel resists. It "sticks" until I apply a bit more pressure, after which it suddenly releases, corrects, and acts normal. Moments later however, it veers the opposite direction, and I am forced to repeat the same process all over again. End result is I begin drifting slightly back and forth down the highway repeatedly, while fighting with a steering wheel. I feel it is a major safety issue, because going down a 3-lane interstate, and I'm in the middle lane with 2 semi trucks on either side of me, the car starts veering, I go to correct and the steering "sticks", causing me to over correct, there's probably going to be an accident. I've been reading a Honda Civic forum, there are several people with the same problem and company knows about the problem. They replace the power steering assembly (part number: 53650-tbc-A21 or 53650-tba-A22).
