After 38000 miles, my steering wheel began to make a clicking/popping sound when turning at a very slow speed, I took it in and the dealer/service center said there was a service bulletin, but it wasn't a safety hazard, also said the van had a similar issue with struts (safety bulletin issued for those as well). Extremely disappointed that a vehicle with this low miles and such a good reputation for quality would have such issues and I find it hard to believe how the steering and struts are not a safety issue. Prior to these issues, my rack and pinion started leaking, which is unheard of at 35000 miles.

Power steering completely went out in less than 24 hours after purchasing vehicle with 14 miles on it. Vehicle lost fluid again and started making odd noises a little over 24 hours after the power steering pump and fluid replaced. Honda technical reported defect is extensive and fluid has been spraying all over the engine and has compromised the firewall and the fluid over the interior of the vehicle. Van is still in the shop waiting for issue to be fixed (2/4/16).
