Steering is sticking when driving for long distances or on highway. Trying to make small steering adjustments is hard and the steering jumps around and has a jittery feeling.

While driving for a few months now at 5K miles the car is having steering control issues. Where the steering is sticky while driving shifting from side to side and locking in a steady state while driving around a bend. There are no safety warnings present on the dashboard. Because of this vehicle issue, I feel unsafe driving my vehicle. I have taken it to a dealership to look at and investigate. They-??ve told me the power steering rack needs a replacement. The power steering rack is currently on back order until July. I am hoping for a loaner vehicle, because I do not feel safe driving my vehicle with this problem still occurring. This could cause a possible accident that I would hope could be prevented.

The steering seems to get suck at any speed over 50 mph. I have to jerk the steering wheel to unstick it to keep my car in the lane. This is even with all of the lake keep assist off and no drivers aids being used. I am unable to drive my car on the freeway or anywhere over 50 mph. It almost caused me to crash on three separate occasions.

While driving at highway speeds the vehicle wonders to either side and when trying to adjust the steering wheel sticks to that position making it hard to keep the car stray in the line. When it happens the cars feels loose and unsafe to drive since I have to constantly adjust the steering wheel and literally fight against the car to keep it stray.

After driving for 30 to 45 minutes the steering becomes sticky and won-??t got straight veering left or right slightly. The wheel often gets stuck veering left and needs extra force to bring it back often causing an over correction. Started at 22000 miles. This happened during winter months but the last two weeks during spring I-??ve noticed it less so it may be related to colder temps. Also gets stuck in curves wanting continue turning by itself rather than straightening itself. On a couple occasions when the lane keep assist is activated it veers strongly to the opposite direction also need extra force to bring the wheel back to center.

The steering system developed a "notchy"-ness to it. The steering required above normal pressure to correct the direction and then "jumped" a little too far which required the same process to correct it. Almost like the car could only correct in 2 degree increments to try and keep it heading straight. Each correction was slightly too much though and required another correction in the opposite direction. This was at highway speeds of 70 MPH. The lane assist was turned off as it was thought that affected it but it didn't. After parking the car at our destination the steering was fine on the way home only to randomly start happening again. I have not had it checked at a dealer yet but will bring it in. Car has about 9900 miles. My wife looked at me and didn't understand why I couldn't keep the car simply headed straight. Have hundreds of thousands of miles of experience - its a steering malfunction.

The steering wheel sticks and then when your steer harder in the direction you-??re trying to go the steering wheel frees up. It does it both going left and right.

- Washington , MO, USA

My Honda civic steering wheel at around 14,000 miles began to be "sticky" after driving about 30 minutes when performing minor steering corrections. While driving at any speed, the steering wheel has a slight resistance to minor corrections which causes me to need to slightly jerk the steering to go the way I need it to go. This then causes the car to turn to far and the need for correction which also is a slight adjustment and the cycle continues. The dealer wasn't able to see the issue but it is a great pain and possible safety issue while going at highway speeds. There are no warning lights or error codes associated.

Stiff steering, Having the issue with my 11th gen civic sport. Car wanders as stated above, when I move the wheel slightly in either direction it will stay in that direction and not return to the center without my help.The wheel also sticks to the center and requires a tad bit more force to move occasionally.

Steering becomes "sticky" after driving 15-20 min+ and is worse at highway speeds. Difficulty is maneuvering and keeping vehicle in lane.

- Garden City, MI, USA

When attempting to keep centered in a lane, regardless of Honda's Lane Keep Assist System turned off or on; there is a pronounced notch or skip in the steering that is noticed when driving longer periods of time. It has happened while driving around town at city speeds also, so the issue is not limited to any specific speed. When steering on curved roads, it is not smooth and effortless and I must fight the steering wheel which ultimately causes an annoying over correction. If another vehicle decides to drive along side me while keeping centered on a curved road, trying to keep centered in my lane can be challenging due the nature of the steering defect not allowing me to do so smoothly. This defect causes unnecessary over correction and can lead to a car collision. I have taken my vehicle to the local dealership, but they have not been able to reproduce it and have told me to keep a close eye on it. "When the issue comes up again, please do bring it back. Because there aren't any warning codes, we cannot just order a steering rack for you. We must prove to Honda that the repair is necessary under warranty."

My steering wheel from what I can tell when it-??s less than 40 degrees at speeds around 30mph and up gets to be very notchy or like there is a resistance point when I am driving on straight roads. It is not a huge issue that makes it anywhere near not being able to drive, but it gets to be very annoying as since there is a resistance point to push past when I make minor steering adjustments it causes me to oversteer which ends up causing me to have to constantly be adjusting the wheel just so i can try to stay going straight. It is especially difficult to stay in the middle of the lane when it is windy, or just in general bad weather. This may be unrelated but when turning with the steering wheel all the way either way it makes a groaning noise. I took it to my Honda dealership and they claim to not be able to replicate it. They are the only ones who i have brought it to to have it checked. They-??re are no warning lights.

I have noticed the issue happening for a long time and never thought anything of it. It starts out by only really sticking on the highways to now being sticky at all times of my drive. It will lock up and cause me to over correct trying to get it unstuck. I spoke with a sales person when I was looking at other options and he was able to feel it sticking even in a parked state. I am more worried about the idea of me over correcting on the highway and putting everyone at risk around me.

Sticky/not by steering at highway speeds. You literally cannot keep the car in a straight line because you are constantly over correcting due to the excessive force applied to the steering wheel. I will never own another Honda because of this issue. My 2004 cord ranger steers better than this car

Since owning car, steering sticks sometimes as though the -??auto-steer-?? is engaged but it holds the wheel in one position. More effort than normal is required to turn wheel. Feels like it is sticking. Happens almost always at highway speeds.

- Arlington, TX, USA

minor left to right adjustments at all speeds are sticky. this makes steering unsafe and there are a ton of people on forum-??s experiencing this issue as well.

I recently purchased a 2022 Honda Civic Sedan Sport on 3/24/22. It was a one owner vehicle with 34K miles. Upon my test drive I noticed the steering wheel was "sticking" and over-correcting. I mentioned this to the salesman that was along for the ride, we both said "the lane keep assist needs to be turned off". I have owned several Honda's, all with this feature so I know it can be disabled. Once I purchased the car and was driving home, I noticed it getting much worse at higher speed on the interstate. It was maddening! Going straight, without lane departure there is this constant sticking when any type of correction needs to be made. When you correct the path of direction, I have to push much more than I should to do a small correction but it causes the car to swerve! In any kind of turn, no matter how sharp the car does now allow you to "flow" out of the turn. I am forced into a constant "jerking motion" to keep the car in lane and not run off the road! The entire trip home was quite scary, not to mention I looked like I probably needed to be pulled over for DUI! Once I was home, I went through all of the safety, maintenance and settings options to disable ANY kind of Lane Departure Mitigation, Driver Assist or anything else (that's supposed to make the car safer to drive by the way) and it made no difference! I drove it again today 3/25/22 and had to get off the interstate because of this, as it is highly unsafe. I have contacted the dealership, I will be taking the car in on Mon 3/27/22 but after reading many forums on the internet, this is unfortunately a common issue of great concern, that has not been resolved as far as I can tell. There are no warning messages. From what I have read, when other vehicles have been taken to the dealership they are sent away with no corrections, as there are no CODES being given for correction. This is extremely unsafe, not for only the driver but passengers and other surrounding vehicles! The contact stated that the vehicle stayed at the dealership for some time while

I noticed that when I would drive the vehicle on the highway there was something strange with the steering wheel. I felt that the car would not keep on a straight path, but would slightly start moving to the side and that I had to slightly adjust the steering to keep it driving straight. I would also feel a minimal stickiness of the steering wheel. When driving at slow speeds, I would hear a click on the front of the car every time I would turn the steering wheel. Also, there were random times when I would reverse from a parking space and I would feel another click on the back of the car. There were other times when I would park and the park brake would automatically engage. This issue started happening around November of 2022, about six months after purchasing the new vehicle. i just thought that this was normal, until I began noticing the increase of the issue with the unusual steering problems while on highway speed. The issue has been confirmed by the dealer when I took it for service on 03/08/2023. They kept the vehicle and informed me that I could not drive it until it is repaired. No warning lights turned on to indicate that there was a problem. I'm concerned that this is a new vehicle that I cannot drive, and the manufacturer has not indicated an time when the vehicle will be fixed. The dealer said that in May 2023 some parts may be released for repairs of this issue, but that they cannot guarantee that my vehicle will be repaired by then.

The steering stiffens up (once the engine warms up) while driving and gives unnecessary resistance on initial attempt to turn the steering wheel in any direction (especially at highway speeds). It becomes very tedious on a long drive. I took the car to a dealership and they made a few changes to the settings but it did not fix the problem. They said they would need the car for several days and drive it under various conditions. They claim they had never heard of this problem before. I have a feeling they are going to tell me it's an intermittent problem and not a big enough issue to consider further action. (I've been through that with other vehicles I've owned) I would have to rent a car in order to leave my Civic with them.

Mostly at higher speeds(55-60), noticed the steering wheel no longer being smooth, and now sticky. Not being able to smoothly move within the lane jerks the car. Im assuming it looks like I-??m drunk from behind. At lower speeds it-??s much better but still not as smooth as it was as before this started.
