The steering has become "notchy" or "sticking" at highway speeds. Any small adjustments between 11 o'clock to 1 o'clock on the steering wheel require more steering force. I'm unsure if this is a steering rack, power steering, or steering column issue. The issue can be replicated. I just worry about safety of others on the road as well as my own. I bought this car to be reliable for my clinical rotations out of state, and have some worries now. My civic only has 28k miles on it and was bought new. My steering rack was evaluated by a certified dealer for recall, and the serial number was deemed normal. No faults or warning signs have appeared. I called a dealer today, they are aware of the issue in "15 other civics, " but can not act since Honda has not released any information/solution. The service advisor just told me, "be careful." No other advice or instructions given.

The Steering on my Vehicle is sticky at moderate to high Speeds! Whenever im driving and i need to make small corrections, the steering sticks causing me to have to apply more force to the Steering Wheel to overcome the Stickiness which then is causing my Vehicle to swerve slightly, i believe under the right circumstances that can become dangerous! Honda dealer was Notified, inspection was carried out by said Honda Dealer. I was informed the part that needs to be replaced is on Backorder and won-??t be in for a COUPLE MONTHS! No Loner Vehicle was offered, the Dealership informed me that they are well aware of the Problem and that the Vehicle is safe to drive. No warning Lamps are illuminated at the Time the Sticky Steering is occurring.

- Valencia, CA, USA

Sticky Steering. Ever since I bought this car it feels as if the steering wheel sticks in certain spots. It will drive you crazy going down the highway. Unsafe as you have to jerk on the wheel.

I-??ve had this car for the past two years and when I purchased it, I thought the steering wheel sticking was because the was new. Here we are two years later and I-??ve having to jerk the wheel to unstick it while driving at high speeds on the freeway. I feel very unsafe when driving. I received a recall notice in the mail explaining to take the vehicle in to your local Honda dealer and they would asses the recall and repair for free, only for them to look at the problem and tell me it is not under warranty. I showed the paper once again that said they would repair it for free and they refused to do so. Please help me.

When driving, the steering wheel feels sticky and requires some force to keep the car driving straight. Car does not drive straight and requires constant handling of the steering wheel to keep it in the lane. It almost feels like the lane keeping system is trying to turn the car back into the lane but this feature has been disabled. I frequently notice this when driving on the highway at highway speeds after the car has been warmed up.

- Palmetto, FL, USA

At moderate to highway speeds, the steering wheel feels like it-??s sticky when attempting to make small steering adjustments. The car will not immediately steer and more force is required than usual. This is more noticeable at higher speeds but also occurs at lower speeds. This issue also just began after 25,000 miles.

Steering sticks or gets stuck while driving at highway speeds causing additional effort or overcorrection to steer efficiently.

- Wappinger Falls, NY, USA

Steering is 'sticky, ' making it difficult to make minor adjustments while driving. Each time any move is made with the steering wheel, it is like it has to 'break free' from being stuck. This happens almost all the time over 50-65 mph, regardless of the driving mode

My new Honda Civic 2022 purchased April 2022 first exhibited "sticky" steering about 6 months after purchase. The issue started off as a low resistance and would go away and not happen again for weeks. By mid 2023 the sticky steering resistance had become significant and was occurring more frequently. I began taking my car into the dealership however they were unable to reproduce the issue. In December 2023 I could no longer safely operate my car at speeds above 40 mph as small steering corrections required over-steering. I took my car back to the dealer saying I could no longer drive it. They reproduced the issue and took possession of my vehicle. My car is under warranty however there are no parts available to make repairs. The dealership has been in possession of my vehicle for 2 months now and last I was informed the availability of parts had been delayed.

steering feels "sticky" when making minor turn adjustments on a straight road. It would randomly freeze at a position and require extra effort to "break loose", resulting in unwanted oversteering. This problem used to occur occasionally at highway speeds only (50+ mph), but now happening more consistently at any speed. Had a Honda dealer inspected the vehicle, they claimed the car drives normally and there is no issue with steering.

- Salt Lake City, UT, USA

The steering sticks, feels tight like it-??s hard to turn when driving at 40mph+ speeds. You have to apply more steering pressure to turn the wheel, at which point the steering pressure will suddenly release and turn normally. It will do this constantly as you drive down the road.

- Summerville, SC, USA

Over the last 6 months or so, the steering has felt weird - like I would have to sharply move it when trying to adjust going left or right. More noticeable the faster the car moves. Getting worse now. I researched 2022 Honda Civic EX steering issues, and reports of "sticky" steering are being investigated. "Sticky" is exactly the term I would use when describing this problem. I will now contact my Honda dealership to report the problem and attempt to find a solution. Car still under warranty.

My 2022 Honda Civic Sport has been having an issue with the steering rack it seems. The steering wheel gets stuck when turning left and right. It "sticks". This is super frustrating with it being a new car. I have never been in a vehicle that has an issue like this, and it seems that many people have the same issue as me.

- Rocky Top, TN, USA

Steering wheel is sticking at speeds greater than 40 MPH. This has been an on-going issue for several months, but over the last week it has been getting worse. The incident that has prompted this complaint occurred while driving this evening on the interstate. I moved to pass an 18-wheeler while entering a slight curve in the lanes. The steering wheel failed to respond as it should have, and I felt as if I could have been in an accident. It isn't that I could not turn at all, but the extra effort I had to use on the wheel in order to navigate only a modest curve in the scared me in that particular situation. Since it is getting worse, I have to say I'm not fully confident of my safety while driving this car. I feel this for two reasons: first, I have no idea when or where the problem might present itself, or to what degree of effort I will need to put into the wheel; and second, I feel at some point I will overcompensate and either hit another vehicle or drive into a skid. I have taken the vehicle to the dealer, but I am not certain they even test-drove the car. The invoice states it operates as normal, which means they could not have test-drove it. I described my issue in detail, even showed them the complaints on the NHTSA website, and I was told that Honda did not have a solution for the problem. There are no warning lamps present, and the vehicle is available for inspection for anyone who wants to inspect it.

My steering wheel does this "sticky" thing. It's exactly what I have read about online. If I turn left the car is not turning with me. If I turn right the car isn't turning with me. Very unsafe and has almost cause multiple accidents! I took the car to the dealership and they were not a huge help. I was quoted $2500 for repairs! Unacceptable for such a new car and such a common problem!

- Albemarle, NC, USA

When driving at highway speeds, steering wheel -??sticks-?? or -??locks-?? and requires extra force to turn. Problem was intermittent at first but has gotten worse over the last few days. Problem seems to occur whenever the wheel has not been turned for a few seconds. Driving at city speeds doesn-??t cause problem to occur. No lights or warnings indicate any problems. Issue occurs with or without lane departure on. I-??ve made an appointment with the dealership. Dealership said they would -??re-inspect-?? a part that had previously passed their visual inspection but has known issues/recalls.
