On September 17, 2023, while traveling at 65 mph on the highway, my car's steering suddenly pulled, resulting in a blown front passenger tire. The impact forced the car into construction barriers, damaging the passenger side mirror. Due to construction constraints, finding a safe spot to pull over was challenging, so I drove a short distance to assess the damage. Upon inspection, the tire was shredded, the rim damaged, and the passenger mirror torn off, with additional harm to the paint and body. AAA installed the spare tire. This incident wasn't isolated; recurring issues with the steering, including a September 22, 2022 incident where the car unexpectedly veered into a curb, had been ongoing since leasing the car on September 20, 2022. After the recent highway incident, concerns heightened when the spare tire blew out while awaiting a new tire and rim from the Honda dealership. The car was towed to the dealership, revealing extensive work needed on the steering rack and other components. Despite the car having only 11K miles, the dealership estimated approximately $8K for repairs. Investigating further, I discovered a recent recall, including my VIN. However, the dealership was unaware of the recall, and their attempt to address the issue did not align with its specifics. They stated that despite my VIN being included, my steering column is not covered under the recall. This lack of awareness, coupled with over 440 similar incidents reported for 2022 Honda Civic Sports Sedans, raises concerns about the manufacturer's understanding of the problem's magnitude. There is a defect with my car. Honda included it in the recall, should further investigate, assume responsibility and correct as part of the recall or manufacturer's warranty. Despite the ordeal, I am grateful for regaining control on the highway and safely maneuvering off the road without harm to myself or other vehicles.

Have sticky issue. My vin was due for a recall took it in. Like always "couldn't replicate the issue" so no fix was provided. Vehicle was not fixed just cleared from recall. All dealers are going to say that just clear it and say there's no issue. Something else needs to be done. They said my tint was causing the issue but I had the issue was before tint was applied. Has completely nothing to do. No rental was given. Waste of my time and money. My steering has completely lost steering twice already intermediate then comes back.

As a longtime Honda owner, I've had 6 other Honda vehicles, I purchased this vehicle for my son when he turned 16. As a new driver, he did not recognize the steering problems that I DID the first time I drove the vehicle and this happened :( This is very scary for a parent but I recognize he may not have known different. Soon after I purchased my new vehicle, I noticed the steering seemed "stiff". I would be driving the vehicle and would feel like there was no power steering. I would be 'jerking the wheel' in order to try and correct the steering. I would constantly be gripping the wheel in order to steer the vehicle, even on straight, highway roads. I stopped allowing my son to drive the vehicle because of my safety concerns. I would attempt to set the cruise control so I wouldn't have to be 'fighting the wheel' and after a short amount of time with cruise control on, cruise control would automatically shut off for no apparent reason. This issues happened on multiple occasions. I took the vehicle to my dealer, over 80 miles one way, on multiple occasions. I showed them video of the steering issues that the passenger took when this would occur. They couldn't get the problem to duplicate. Finally after the third trip to the dealership, they submitted for warranty request to replace the steering column. On the fourth trip, the steering column was replaced. This is obviously a major safety concern!

As driving down the interstate. My car was on adaptive cruise as well as lane assist. It was like a nightmare! The car took total control. Throwing me from right to left to right to left and finally into a concrete barrier. The vehicles suspension on the drivers side both front and back failed. It was a nightmare you could not wake up from. I could have easily rolled the car over. And easily hit other vehicles. No warning lights or anything was on before the incident.

Steering wheel is sticking when moving steering wheel/driving. Steering wheel locks while driving.

- Dallas, TX, USA

Steering feels like it sticks when making micro adjustments on highway speed and when it finally budges, it over-exaggerates the adjustment and you end up wandering in your lane or going out of the lane, causing you to swerve out of the lane. Been taken to the dealer 2 times in less than a month and was told they-??ve had multiple complaints from other owners about the same problem and have felt it themselves on other -??22 Civics but since it does not generate an error code when they run a diagnostics, they cannot do anything about it nor can they replace anything.

I have aligned to my wheels 3 times and I'm still having issues keeping the steering straight it feels like I'm floating around. Also when reversing I hear I load clunking noise coming from the back.

While driving my car on the open highway, I noticed that the steering wheel became somewhat sticky and resistant. This started in September of 2022 and the problem has become increasingly worse. The steering wheel requires excessive force to turn at speeds above 40mph, making micro-adjustments to the steering very difficult and causes oversteering. If there is a bend in the road and I turn the steering wheel, it sticks when trying to straighten the wheel out. It requires additional force to break the sticking point and get the car straightened back out. The safety concern is related to the straightening back out, in some cases it takes considerable effort and requires control to not over power into crossing the line of the lane. I also have concerns of a lock up and causing an accident that could harm me as well as others. Currently, I am not driving my new car due to the fear of an accident. There are zero warnings appears when this happens, so there is no way to prepare for it. I have contacted my local Honda dealership as well as America Honda (corporate office) to complain about this issue. The dealership informed me that the steering rack needs to be replaced. Honda is not able to provide an ETA on the part, nor are they willing to provide a loaner car. Honda told us that we could pick the car back up and continue to drive it until it is repaired. Honda is not concerned about the danger to customers. Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is pulling info together to file a class action lawsuit since this issue is happening to so many Honda Civic owners. It should not take someone dying for Honda to resolve this issue with no expense to the customer. We are currently making payments on a new Honda that my son is scared to drive. https://lemonexpert.com/vehicle-bulletins/2022-honda-civic-steering-system-defects/. https://classlawdc.com/2022/12/08/2022-honda-civic-steering-defect/ https://

The vehicle exhibits an unmistakable thump noise when going over a speed bump or while typically driving at low speeds over cracks in any road surface. Naturally took the vehicle into the authorized dealer, technicians instantly replaced the sway bar links, However the thumping noise from the front end over bumps is still present. A noticeable "creaking" noise can also be heard from the front end when accelerating and at low speeds.

1700 miles In the odo. Steering feels as if it gets stuck on high way speeds. Having to force it to keep the steering in the center. Definitely not normal. Started noticing it about 1500 on the odo only getting worse. Almost feels like the car is not aligned. Properly. Brand new car not staying straight is a concern of steering rack issues. Common for this car. Scared to report it to dealer they are only going to submit papers and say is completely Normal. Waste of time. This should be a recall

My wife purchased a new 2022 Honda civic sport, it has lane control assist and at high speed it wonders, pulls side to side, follows lanes color change, pulls into a curve and pulls when going by big trucks into the truck. I have to hold the steering very tight and it has made my arms hurt from the straining. I went to Honda 4 time before anyone admitted it has a serious problem. Hammer Honda in Reseda Ca, verified the problems. The book clear states the lane change assist may or may not work, Honda denies anything is wrong. This is a safety issue and we have had 4 near crash events. I am a Certified Trained Alignment Technician and know cars well, I have 43 years of hands on experience, this car is unsafe and no one at Honda is disclosing this safety issue with this 2022 Honda Civic Sports. The expert at Honda on the 4th visit Witnessed and Verified the Lane Change Assists not working properly at 50 mph.
