Steering sticks and requires a jerky response to correct. Most noticeable when driving on highway but does occur during all types of driving.

- Anderson, SC, USA

While driving straight there is slippage in the steering that causes the driver to over compensate. Steering feels loose. I think I need to trade this vehicle in before something bad happens. Honda has very poor customer service. The dealerships are aweful and theives.

- St. Augustine, FL, USA

The steering starts to stick in place after driving for about 10-15 minutes. I was advised by my Honda dealership that the entire electronic power steering rack needs to be replaced at the cost of $3400

- Florence, AL, USA

I-??m having a problem with my steering. It-??s like it-??s sticky and jerky feeling when driving, causing me to have to overcorrect left or right when making slight adjustments to center. Obviously more noticeable with highway driving. Took to Honda they diagnosed it as VSA Module, got it fixed still having the same issue with sticky steering. I don-??t feel safe driving my car

- Tampa, FL, USA

The steering is sticking and slipping when coming out of a turn. This usually occurs at speeds over 45 mph. When you start to come out of a turn, it-??s as if the wheel is momentarily stuck in the turn and then slips 2 to 3 degrees. If feels like the wheel is not responding, and it-??s quite frightening not knowing if the car is going to respond to the wheel. It-??s hard for the technicians to duplicate, because it does not happen every time (at least for now). This is a huge safety issue that Honda needs to repair. The part was quoted at $2000, and because there are so many vehicles affected, it is on -??unknown amount of time-?? back order. Please NHTSA do something about this.

The steering tends to stick when driving at highway speeds. This issue makes small steering movements jerky and causes over corrections. The dealership stated they were not able to duplicate it. This is a known issue for this generation.

- Gaineville , FL, USA

While driving my 2017 Honda Civic, I notice that the steering wheel sticks while trying to keep the car centered. While driving, as the car needs to be slightly adjusted at the end range it sticks and I have to add a little force to get it to recorrect which causes a slight overcorrection. Honda says that it looks like I need a new rack and pinion system on my 2017 Honda with less than 60,000 miles. The sticking can be significant. Honda says while there are Recalls on steering components in the 2017 Honda Civic my vin number is not included. This has been an on-going issue for over six months.

Sticky steering. Steering wheel sticks in one spot causing you to over correct.

- Lago Vista, TX, USA

The steering wheel is sticky. While making directional corrections while driving, especially at highway speeds, the stickiness of the steering wheel causes you to make jercky movements causing you to over correct your cars path, which causes you to make another correction oversteering in the opposite direction. This process continues indefinitely as you drive.

Steering becomes locked briefly at random times while driving. dealer unable to duplicate but problem is known on Civics 2016>2021 per dealers. no recall nor TSB from Honda. no concern of issue from Honda Tech when dealer contacts about issue. Owner required to pay 100% if wants repair, but replacement steering rack assembly is same as original so sticking problem can occur again. will NHTSA inquire about problem as potential safety concern ?

- San Antonio, TX, USA

I am experiencing sticky steering wheel. This is a known issue in Honda vehicles. It causes over correcting to right or left at all speeds, but more prominent during highway driving. Many vehicles have been recalled but for some reason my VIn isn-??t listed but clearly has a defect in the steering.

- Coral Springs, FL, USA

Vehicle steering wheel will feel stiff and jerky when travellings at cruise speeds. Tendency to overcompensate corrections. Serious safety threat.

- Tuscumbia, AL, USA

Steering wheel sticks while driving typically notice it driving on interstate so likely only when at higher speeds. Becomes difficult to maintain vehicle in straight line. There is recall on other civics for similar issue but none on my VIN. Bit of a safety concern having the vehicle difficult to steer

- Charlotte, NC, USA

Steering wheel has become very "sticky". Minor steering adjustments are now very hard to make, causing a jerking motion of the wheel while just trying to maintain a straight lane. These kinds of motions can cause safety concerns for those driving the car as well as others on the road as jerky movements can result in crash. I have found several other accounts of this same issue with a very simple internet search. Seems like something Honda needs to fix.

- Nakina, NC, USA

Steering is sticky and jerky. Requires additional input to make minor corrections at highway speeds. Causes vehicle to swerve when it frees up.

- Winter Springs, FL, USA

When driving the car at highway speeds for a number of miles, the steering gets sticky making it hard to maintain lane control. When trying to make minor corrections, the steering wheel will not turn until significant force is used which causes the car to jerk sideways in the lane. This results in having to turn the wheel again to correct again resulting in fighting the steering through the whole drive. The issue is not apparent on short drives or when diving around town making frequent turns. It is only apparent when driving for many miles on the highway. Once it starts, the problem continues until the car is parked for an extended period, such as overnight.

- Palm Coast, FL, USA

My steering began sticking in the neutral position while driving. It takes some force to "break it loose" which is a bit scary while traveling down the interstate, as it makes the car drift. I have had the steering components inspected and Honda has determined the Steering Rack needs to be replaced due to sticking. There is a recall on 2017 civics, but somehow my VIN is not included. My car is doing the same thing as the existing recall on same year civics. Honda will not voluntarily fix the problem. Is there anything you can do? I have confirmation from Honda dealer that the problem exists and can provide that documentation to you upon request.

- Spanish Fort, AL, USA

When traveling at highway speeds the steering -??sticks-??. This requires more force to keep the car going straight in the lane. When correcting the steering overcorrection is a hazard. Very unsafe travel at highway speeds.

- Covington, OH, USA

I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the persistent issue of "sticky steering" in my Honda Civic, which is attributable to a malfunction in the Electric Power Steering (EPS) system. Since the purchase of my Civc, I have experienced recurring difficulties with the steering, characterized by stiffness and unresponsiveness. This issue poses a significant safety concern as it affects the vehicle's handling and maneuverability, especially during tight turns or emergency situations. Upon investigation, it has been determined that the problem lies within the EPS system, likely due to faulty sensors, wiring issues, or malfunctioning components such as the EPS motor or control module.

Steering wheel -??sticking-?? no matter the speed.
