power steering rack ( part # 53560-TBA-A01. Steering is sticking when on highway driving 55+ and hard to correct. Noone at dealership can duplicate issue, however my daughter and husband have also experienced sticky steering and hard to correct. No warning lights. Diagnostic tests show nothing wrong. Honda Forums helped me figure out issue.

While driving to keep the car center the steering becomes sticky or notchy as if needing slightly extra force to microcorrect left or right to stay center. It results in slight overcorrection and some slight swaying, but feels as if control of the car is compromised, specifically at freeway speeds.

- Fontana, CA, USA

The steering is very sticky when driving at higher speeds on the highway. It seems to start after hot days or after 15 to 30 min. of driving. The over correction when it gets stuck and having to force it back to center makes it swerve while driving. I have read many forums with the same model reporting the same issues with their EPS system and steering rack system. This is a huge safety issue and should be recalled and fixed as soon as possible.

Over the past year, the steering became increasingly stiff and difficult to ;control, particularly at higher speeds. When we took it to our local Honda dealership, we were told that this is a common (and expensive) problem with this year and model. They also said not to take it on long trips, as the steering could lock if turned hard. The needed repair parts (see attached repair bill) were on backorder for nearly 2 months and cost over $4,000 to install.

When driving the vehicles steering is not smooth. When making adjustments the steering is very jerky causing you to overcorrect. Searching the honda forums I'm finding lots of others reporting the same issue.

The steering is sticky. When driving the car the steering wheel will stick and the driver has to force the wheel. This causes a very scary driving experience.

- Amherst, VA, USA

Steering wheel is ongoing stiff and jerky when going above 45mph. It has been almost two years of dealing with it. We have tried troubleshooting but it seems to be a common issue as well as AC system keeps failing. We are repairing for 2nd time within a year and half. While AC failure isn't a safety issue the faulty steering is. It makes car hard to control and can cause an accident because minor adjustments can't be made while driving. There dozens of complaints besides mine.

- San Antonio, TX, USA

The contact owns a 2016 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at various speeds and attempting to adjust the steering wheel, the steering wheel was sticking. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was test-driven, and the failure was replicated. The dealer determined that further diagnostic testing was required. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

- Freehold, NJ, USA

Sticky steering have to over correct and not really safe to drive. Went to the Honda dealership and they quotes me 3500 for repair but I have no warranty! It isn't safe for my kids and I to drive but it's my only transportation. I've read many complains of these cars having this issue and having to have rack replacements.

While driving at highway speeds the steering can feel "sticky" where extra effort is required to make small adjustments to keep the car properly centered in the lane. It happens most frequently during warm weather and/or when driving for longer than 20-30 minutes. The effort required to compensate for the issue leads to a delay in the course correction and frequently over steering. Either of which can be a safety issue as the former could lead to being unable to avoid an object on the road and the latter could lead to veering into oncoming traffic.

- Apex, NC, USA

Steering wheel sticks noticeably above 40 miles per hour. Mostly sticks whenever the steering wheel is straight, but happens otherwise as well. Trying to make minor or major corrections results in needing to fight the steering wheel to do necessary movements. Is consistent at this point and has been reproduced by an independent service center. No warning lamps are on and no DTCs (diagnostic trouble codes) either.

- Fulshear, TX, USA

Power steering sticks making small lane maintaining adjustments difficult. Usually happens after the vehicle has been outside in warm weather. Often results in over-correcting, causing vehicle to veer too far within the lane resulting in another correction in the opposite direction. It makes maintaining safe distance from other vehicles or barriers difficult. There are no warning lamps, check engine light, or messages prior to or after the problem. The vehicle is in otherwise excellent condition and has not been inspected by a dealer or mechanic for this problem.

- Georgetown, TX, USA

Steering becomes -??sticky-?? intermittently. Steering wheel requires additional force beyond what is normal to change direction and turn wheels. Issue seems most prevalent at highway speeds when navigating bends in the road that require 10-20 degrees of steering deflection in either direction of center. Once the steering wheel is held at such an angle for a few seconds consecutively it takes substantially more force than normal from the driver to move the steering wheel back towards center. This results in over correction and makes it difficult to control the vehicle and keep it in one lane. Issue is also observed occasionally when making minor corrections to keep the vehicle in its lane on straight stretches of highway. Issue occurs with VSA system on and off. Turning the LKAS on or off has no effect. Issue is intermittent but seems more prevalent during warmer weather.

- Pearland, TX, USA

Steering "sticks" when moving the wheel from center in order to make minor corrections at highway speeds. Overcoming the "stick" requires using additional force resulting in overcorrection and swerving. This is a serious safety concern.

- Round Rock, TX, USA

The steering -??locks-??. To make a small steering adjustment, the car JERKS to the right. A -??clicking-?? has also recently started at the same time of the steering and jerking motion of the car. I was stopped for suspicious DUI. I had to provide the officer with multiple forums discussing the EXACT problem. I reported the problem more than a year ago to the dealership.

Steering feels sticky when driving on highways. It required some force to move it slightly.

- Sarasota , FL, USA

After driving for about 15-20 mins and driving at highway speeds, the steering becomes "sticky" to the point that gentle force meets resistance and more force has to be applied for correction. There is resistance to the wheel that has to be overcome. Standard steering controls. The advanced driving assisted steering is NOT an option on this model. The wheel resists the gentle input at first and greater force has to be issued until enough pressure is exerted and then an over correction happens. This overcorrection has lead to "lane drift" and then has to be corrected AGAIN...and with same sequence....gentle input with locked response then greater force....this has to be done quickly to avoid collision in heavy fast moving traffic which is ALL I drive in. I bought the car certified used 3 years ago while this issue was present but this is a KNOWN issue by you. NO warning lamps.

- Fredericksburg, VA, USA

The contact owns a 2016 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel was difficult to maneuver. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The contact research and learned that it was a known issue. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 55,000.

- Huntington Beach, CA, USA

Steering becomes -??sticky-?? when ambient temperature is about 70 degrees Fahrenheit or after driving from 30 minutes. Small adjustments in steering can not be done because steering sticks in position and causes more force to move it. This causes an over adjustment and swerving to keep the car in the lane.

- Point Pleasant, NJ, USA

While going down the highway the wheel will stick you have to push it to put back in line with the road. Kinda like sticky steering.
