Sticky steering wheel movement on high speeds and slight turns on road. When the steering wheel is resting in center. And time comes to turn it slightly. The steering wheel feels very resistive. Once overcome the resistance, the steering wheel is soft to turn again. This made my car go out of lane once and once corrected made it over correct. Dangerous situation.

The steering rack and pinion need to be replaced. It was inspected by a Honda dealership that confirmed this system failed and it is deemed unsafe to drive. The dealership is holding the car and said it cannot be released back to me without signing a release that the car is unsafe to drive. There were no warning lights. The steering wheel progressively began to stick more when I drove, especially at high speeds on the highway. I had to manually turn the wheel back and struggled to hold it in place when driving straight. This started around early- mid May. Car was brought to the dealer on 6/15 and has been held there since then.

There are issues with the steering. While driving on highways the steering becomes a little sticky and jerks the vehicle. This also happens on city streets just not as bad.
- Temecula, CA, USA
So my 2023 Honda HR-V is experiencing jerky steering. Today, it jerked so hard as I was turning a curve & it almost ran me into a concrete wall.
- Georgetown, TX, USA
I purchased the Honda HRV Sport in February 2023. Have accumulated only 4,000 miles since mostly on city streets. whenever I drive my HRV over 5 miles at 45 or 35 miles per hour, the steering wheel intermittently wants to turn right or left and requires more force to counteract than the lane keeping assist. I thought it was the lane keep assist function that was malfunctioning without giving a warning and turned it of. That did not fix the problem. It continues to occur intermittently. The dealer was not able to duplicate.

The contact owns a 2023 Honda HR-V. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at approximate 65 MPH, the steering wheel was jerking and was sticking. The contact stated that her husband had to forcibly hold the steering wheel. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that when the failure first occurred, the vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for a diagnostic test or repair. The contact thought that the failure was related to the Lane Keep Assist feature; however, the failure persisted, and the vehicle was taken to a dealer where the cause of the failure was not diagnosed due to the diagnostic test cost; however, the contact had the technician check all the safety features to be sure the features were operating correctly. The vehicle was then taken to Bud Clary Honda of Moses Lake (1200 S Pioneer Way suite a, Moses Lake, WA 98837) where the failure was diagnosed as an EPS gear box malfunction. The contact was informed that the EPS gear box needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the vehicle was not repaired because the part was on backorder. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 5,000.

The steering wheel keeps clicking, feels stiff, and hard to move while driving. I felt unsafe driving my vehicle so I took it to the dealership and they said my steering gear box was the problem. The dealership said there weren't any recalls for the steering gear box and that there was 6 other 2023 honda hrv with the same problem. They said they could order a part for $3000 but because the part is on back order they don't know when my car will be fixed. No warning lights came on.

The steering wheel "sticks". Lane control is off and when driving and making any slight adjustments or beginning to turn, you have to break a slight sticking of the wheel. When stopped the steering wheel does not stick
