When Lane departure is turned on it tries steer, vehicle off-road. Also noticing jerking motion or sticky steering at mainly highway speeds where car is difficult to steer around curves, and then straight lines

I was driving on the Interstate had car on cruise control set at 70mph it began to slow to 60mph because of a vehicle in front of me so I moved to the left lane to go around and the vehicle just speed up (G5 force) on its own very quickly and reached speeds up to 80mph and would have kept accelerating past 80mph had I not disengaged the cruise control instead of braking. The second issue we have found was the steering became uncontrollable. It feels like the steering wheel gets stuck and hard to control to stay in your lane. You are not relaxed to drive this vehicle. Your body tenses up just to control the steering. We took it to the dealer for the steering recall but I don't think this is the issue. It is something more serious. We refused to drive our vehicle until it is repaired. A loner vehicle was given to us as the parts for the recall will not be in until April 2024.

Reading on honda forums explaining how a faulty steering rack issue with this 11th gen sedan model causes damage to the tire and increasing the probability of a crash. My steering wheel started wobbling at about 25 mph with the lane assist activated. And stopped after I had it turned off Car has only 230 miles on it, and recall wasnt explained by the dealer.

Steering wheel is sticking, when wheel is turned from a stationary position. Most noticeably at highway speeds while making slight steering corrections to maintain lane. Dealer claims to not be able to replicate issue.

Civic has just over 5500 miles on it and now traveling at highway speeds in a straight line it is difficult to move the steering wheel and it feels like it is stuck in a rut and requires a tug to get the wheel to turn. This happens at 50+ mph speed and I have tried it with road departure and lane keep off and it still happens. It you keep moving the wheel slightly it won-??t do it but when trying to turn slightly after traveling straight for a while it occurs.
