When driving on the highway the steering wheel sticks and wants to veer to off track. The stickiness is getting worse. I have to pull harder to get past the stuck position.

"sticky steering" issue. The issue is momentary increase in steering effort, mostly at highway speeds causing over steering jeopardizing safety. Honda refuses to acknowledge this issue although honda has issued a recall notice for same issue, same year same model. Honda stating that my specific VIN number is not one that has been recalled although car has same issue that it's being recalled for. Repair costing about $3500 per Honda service.

While driving the steering is -??sticking-?? and feels like there is tension while driving on a straight road and trying to keep the the vehicle straight. The tension in the steering wheel is overcome while trying to keep it straight causing the vehicle to jerk in that direction. You must react in the opposite direction to avoid collision which causes it to jerk in the other direction. It happens at all speeds and most noticeably at 40+ mph making it very concerning to drive and difficult to control the vehicle. My concern is that the vehicle will lose control completely at some point due to this issue.

Steering is -??sticking-?? or momentarily locking. Going straight then initiating a turn, the steering sticks momentarily until it finally -??breaks loose-??. Results in over-controlling and having to do almost S-turns while trying to keep the car straight. More apt to do so at higher speeds and the traveling faster does exacerbate the over-controlling (over-steering) conditions.

The power steering -??sticks-?? and -??requires slight, but manual force-?? to free it while driving causing the car to unexpectedly lose maneuverability. It has not been inspected yet, but it is easy to confirm as it happens almost all the time.

Steering wheel "sticks." I has been doing it since around 40,000 miles. It has gotten worse with time. While driving in straight line after it warms up the steering wheel does not move when trying to make micro adjustments and then when it does it jerks and causes the driver to overcompensate. Makes driving very tiring and unsafe. It is difficult to keep the car driving straight when tis happens. I can see there have been recalls regarding this problem with newer Civics, like 22-23, but mine has been doing it and it is a 2017. Last time it happened was recently while my drive was driving and I was out of town on 3/15/24.

Honda has a recall for 2017 Civics for faulty sticking steering racks. My vehicle has experienced the same issue and I have been fighting for two years to have it fixed. Honda refuses time after time to replace the steering rack stating my VIN isn't included in the recall. The same exact part number they have recalled and continued using year after year is on my Civic. They refused assistance for two years and now state my vehicle is out of warranty and they do not want to cover the fix.

I am the original owner of a 2017 Honda civic ex. Recently I have been experiencing a "sticky steering wheel". When driving the car will veer to the left or right. The steering wheel feels stuck and causing over correction and erratic jerky car movements. There is also a clicking sound when moving the steering wheel out of the "stuck" position. I see this has been an ongoing problem with the Honda civics on the 2016 -2023 models with over a half million recalled in 2022 -2023. Honda of America says that there is no recall for my VIN number and until the NHTSA says so that they will not take any action for this ongoing safety problem and I will have to pay for any repairs.

My steering wheel seems to feel like it kind of locks up and is hard to release, causing me to yank slightly. It hasn't caused an incident yet, but I believe it will at some point if not checked. I'm going to get it checked out once I have some available time. I do see where 2022- 2023 have possible recalls for a similar issue that sounds exactly like what is happening on mine. This has been doing it for quite some time and doesnt seem to be improving. I only have 67000 miles on my car. Please be aware, thank you. Lisa Shaffer

Our car is a 2017 Honda Civic. We bought it new in November 2016. While driving, it came to our attention there was something wrong with the steering of the car. Steering feels too loose and at times it locks up. We took it in to be assessed and were told the steering gearbox needed to be replaced. The car went in for repair of the steering gearbox. Encountering costly power steering rack repairs should not be expected in a car with low mileage and age.

While driving the car the steering wheel sticks and you have to use more force to turn the wheel which causes you to overcorrect and it does not feel safe. The problem has not been confirmed by a dealer simply because I have read online articles seeing many other people have this problem. There were no warning lamps ever activated and the problem first occurred around 50,000 miles and has continued or even gotten worse since then.

At speeds above 40 mph, the steering feels sticky to the point of using extra effort to make steering adjustments to the point of oversteering and having to make more corrections in path. At highway speeds it becomes worse to the point its hard to drive a straight line and looks like I'm driving impaired.

- Blanchard, OK, USA

Steering feels like it is sticking. It is hard to maintain a straight line at speeds over 45 mph. It almost feels like I am trying to separate two magnets and I have to use more than normal effort to bring the car back to a straight line

- Whiting, NJ, USA

Steering wheel is sticking or failing at highway speeds making steering corrections difficult. Seems more problematic on hotter days also noticed sticking when making turns at speeds greater than 35 mph can be hard to replicate but when it occurs oversteering easily occurs mechanic has no options other than replacing entire power steering system. Is dangerous especially when I over corrected for the sticking causing a sudden lane change
