My 2022 Honda Civic is having steering issues/problems. The vehicle will have steering issues after 10-15 minutes of driving. It-??s very noticeably while driving on the freeway between 30-70 mph. It feels like the steering wheel will lock, i will need to over correct the steering wheel to -??unlock-?? that -??locked-?? steering feel. I have also noticed -??clicking-?? sounds will come from underneath the vehicle will trying the steering wheel. I have taken my vehicle to a Honda Dealership, they inspected the vehicle, and said no recalls have been issued for my vehicle yet. I feel this is a huge safety problem, and hoping this report will help me resolve the issue.

The steering sticks when traveling at high rates of speed, on highways traveling between 60 - 75 mph. The steering sticks continuously at the high rates of speed on highways after traveling for an hour or so. A slight jerk on the steering wheel will correct the issue, but the sticking seems to get slightly harder to correct the longer the car is driven. The obvious safety issue is over correcting when the steering sticks could put the car and passengers in to other traffic, a retaining wall, ditch, etc. Another concern for safety is the sticky steering that gets harder to correct the longer the car is driven at high rates of speed, very likely, will become stuck and not allow the driver to control the steering at all. Honda dealership in Moss Point, Mississippi did a safety check for the power steering rack recall by Honda, and was made aware of the sticky steering and was given the instructions to detect the malfunction, but stated they did not notice anything wrong. To actually detect the malfuction, some time must be spent on the highway at more than 60 mph. The brief driving of the vehicle on a street riddled with traffic lights, for a few miles, by a technician, then returning to the dealership would not expose the issue. The test given was inadequate, and therefore inaccurate.

The steering feels like it is sticking when lane correcting. You have to use more force than needed to correct inside your lane. When it brakes free you have now over corrected. Could definitely cause a wreck. All assisting aspects are turned off. Happens most often when driving straight but have noticed it when doing long curves. One dealership said it was fine. Second said they need to replace the steering rack, rack and pinion, and gearbox. Part is on back order.

After engine has warmed up, at around 40mph or faster, when the car is going straight and a slight adjustment needs to be made to the steering to bring the car back into line, there is a sticky click as the steering wheel turns about half a cm. It is a feeling in the steering that is not like the smooth, slight movement that should be felt. This can also be felt on slight curves as you make an adjustment in steering. The wheel sticks a bit and then seems to jump instead of just gliding the half cm turn it needs to make. I began feeling this about 3,000 miles ago, and my car currently is at 26,000 miles.

While driving between 40-75 mph, steering feels sticky. If driving on a straight road, deviations between 11 and 1 (like on a clock) cause the wheel to -??stick-?? in place and needs extra effort to steer the car. Typically only happens during colder weather. Had no problems during the summer. I have also tested this by driving on curved roads and I-??ve gone around the 120-140 degree turns without needing to hold on to the wheel, and with no driving assists turned on at all. I-??ve had this issue for most of the cooler weather time, from late October 2023 to December 2023 (current). Also had the issue during the 2022 winter season. Lasted for about 2 months and went away. Now issue is back and clearly an issue amongst a lot of Civic owners (Reddit threads prove this).

- Kenner, LA, USA

The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number:?23V652000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH the vehicle would not steer straight. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the steering rack and steering rack motor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired as parts are due to be received in a month. The contact stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 25,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

After driving for a while at highway speeds, the steering wheel becomes stiff, or -??sticks, -?? making it difficult to make minor corrections. This can cause an over correction to get the steering wheel -??unstuck, -?? causing the vehicle to swerve. Have not taken it to a dealer yet, but did call them and they have not heard of this issue. There are no warnings or other symptoms of the problem. This issue first appeared at about 12,000 miles.

We are experiencing the "sticky steering" issue that is currently under investigation.

- Baker, FL, USA

When driving, typically at highway speeds, steering becomes -??sticky-?? or stiff and more pressure is needed on steering wheel to make adjustments.

- Albany, OR, USA

There has always been intermittent noise related to steering, like a part needing oil, without a steering problem until now. Now, steering is sticking for sure. Entire family noticed it separately after driving. I googled, and immediately found your investigation site. Affects me staying in my lane.

Steering is "sticky", with random resistance encountered, mainly from top center of wheel while making micro adjustments left or right and back to center. It happens almost every time it is driven at various speed. Williams Honda of Elmira, NY looked at my vehicle and determined it was not effected by the steering rack recall. So, I'm unsure what the problem is now.

- Interlaken, NY, USA

We have noticed the steering wheel "catching" at times; this hasn't been severe yet but is concerning. It tends to happen more on highways as opposed to dirt roads, so the higher the speed is. We have an appt today with the local Honda dealer so hopefully this gets fixed.

I made an appointment at Klein Honda in Everett to have the recall checked out or remedied, the service tech told me that their shop did not have the tools or parts to fix the recall yet. My receipt states that the recall was performed and now my steering wheel has started to stick and jerk subtlety while driving and also parked.

- Tulalip , WA, USA

The steering wheel feels like it-??s sticking at times, causing the driver to over adjust when turning curves or even just trying to keep the car straight.

- Blue Ridge, GA, USA

Power steering system making steering adjustments to left or right on its own. Increases with time and speed. When car is pointed straight electronic power steering will slightly jerk the car to left or right without input from driver. Repeated false inputs while driving. Serious safety concern!

I first noticed the sticky steering back in November of 2022, after owning the car since May of 2022. The steering would become sticky, almost as if your were steering in 2 or 3 degree increments. I took it to the Honda dealer, Don Jacobs here in Lexington, KY, and they had it for almost a day, drove it and told me when I picked it up they could not feel it. I drove it away and it acted the same way, felt blown off by the dealer, as if I did no know what I was talking about. As an experiment I took the car to a parking lot and did a couple of lock to lock turning circles, and low and behold it quit. After a while it would come back, took to the dealer again, again they said they did not feel a thing. It has done it off and on since, I just do the lock to lock and it quits for a while. Have noticed when driving on the highway that it starts to act up quicker. Yes, Honda should issue a recall. I could see someone with limited mechanical ability, having it lead them into an accident situation. There were sometimes I had to really put way too much pressure on the steering wheel just to make any minor corrections, warning my wife to be careful and not over steer the car.

I have 28,000 miles on my 22 civic sport touring hatchback. For about the last 2-3 months the ability to keep the car driving perfectly straight has been getting more and more difficult. This is on the highway doing 40-70 mph and when driving straight and it almost seems like when you haven-??t added any steering input for a few seconds or more, it starts having a slight but noticeable dead spot or sticky spot in the steering. It has caught my anttention multiple times now including everytime I use the lane keep assistance. The dead spot or sticking spot is still there with the lane keep on and it causes the car to not be able to maintain a straight line even with you giving manual inputs. In the last week this has become substantially more prominent because I-??ve changed jobs and have an hour drive both ways to work. The dead spot, dead zone or sticky spot is now noticeable going around a corner if you are holding the steering wheel in the same position for more than a few seconds, today I had the steering wheel feel like it was jerking going around a busy corner at a 4 way intersection. The last two days have been much warmer where I live and after 35-40 minutes the sticky spot makes it nearly impossible to maintain a straight line while crying down the road and a lot of roads where I live are long and straight and a brand new 1 year old car should not be doing this. Going around the long sweeping turn at the intersection today was kinda scary feeling the same dead spots as I had the steering wheel turned. It is clearly an issue and I have seen all the other reports of the same issue. I will be taking it to the dealer as soon as they will see me. The problem is that there are no error codes or engine lights and the Honda techs are not driving the cars long enough to have the steering box warm up and start showing the problems. Once the car has been driven for a while it does it at low speeds too. Please help, I know I-??m not the only one with this problem

I have experienced sticky steering and continue to experience it for over one year. The dealer was able to reproduce the problem. The vehicle has not been inspected. There were no warning lights, or messages. The date for additional details will be today's date for because the problem continues.
