At highway speeds, steering sticks and requires excessive force to break resistance and provide input. This makes it difficult to make small corrections and causes swerving within the lane.
Steering wheel sticking after 2nd oil change 9,000 miles. on the highway and speeds over 45mph the steering wheel will stick and require force to move it from its position. It is not subtle and smooth like every car I-??ve driven before. A recall is I order for this steering column. Please look at all the other similar complaints on 2022 civics.
Sticky steering, drifting steering, hard to keep in a straight line. This is an ongoing problem which I first noticed in late November after having the car for several months. It seems to be getting worse. I took it to the dealer they said that it is normal, but I wonder how it could possibly be normal.
While driving for some time the steering feels notchy like it takes more effort than normal to steer from center (only occurs for the first 5-10 degrees either direction from center). This usually becomes noticeable when driving around 30+ minutes over 35MPH, and it causes LKAS to struggle to keep the car center in the lane. Definitely a safety hazard and seeing as there are a TON of others having this same issue across all trims levels. Does not prevent me from driving but is a potentially hazardous issue if it becomes worse than it is.
The car has 18K mikes and the steering sticks after driving for 30 minutes or so. It takes a slight jerk to get it unstuck and is a dangerous issue. It happens at highway speeds and slower speeds as well.

The steering seems to be sticking well driving in a straight line, and as you pull on the wheel, it will suddenly almost feel like it-??s clicking then move. I have seen many forums online of the same complaints and Honda is doing nothing about it. This is my daughters car and I want it to be safe. That-??s why I bought a new one. I was driving the car last night and it-??s seems very dangerous. The car only has 4600 miles on it and it-??s extremely noticeable.
The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 75 MPH, the vehicle independently started to steer to the left and right. The contact stated there was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that extra effort was needed while steering the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 19,355.
While driving my car on the highway I'm noticing that my steering wheel often gets stuck if I've been driving straight for a while. When I feel it get stuck I have to apply pressure or pull it to get it to move. Sometimes when it gets stuck and I try to move it slightly it feels like the car is drifting off into the next lane. Almost as if the car is fighting me a bit. For example I will try to move it to the right but it gets stuck and goes to the left. This is very dangerous sometimes I get scared thinking what if it doesn't move one day and I crash into something or someone. It is very unsafe!
There are issues with steering possible lane assist. I took it to Honda to be accessed, initially the rep tried to tell me there was nothing wrong/ didn-??t understand the issues I was having. Then I was told it was a small hose that was constantly triggering lane assist feature and that they needed to take the dash apart and install this part they claim they special ordered. I left my car at the service center for several days. They reported they had replaced defective part And the issue had been resolved however, It-??s been 2 weeks and the car is worse than before. The steering wheel is stiffer than before and makes a clicking sound when turning any direction. I-??m afraid of an accident because the issue forces the driver to constantly. The service guy claimed it-??s not dangerous just something annoying. I feel frustrated because this shouldn-??t be happening with a car that I just 1 year old
While driving the 2022 Civic Touring there is a noticeable stickiness to the steering almost as if the wheel will look up while trying to drive straight and pull the car to different sides of the road. Its almost like the first 5 degrees right or left are not registered, causing it to lock up. It originally was while driving straight mainly highway miles. Now it-??s becoming noticeable during day to day driving and turning. This is very unsafe considering the car can turn and steering wheel will not allow the driver to automatically correct because it is locked up. If you go to the dealership everyone pretends like it-??s unreal but check any forum and tons of people are experiencing these problems with 2022 Civics. I had a dealership tell me to my face that it is 100% "normal".
Vehicle has sticky steering that is noticble above 40 mph and gets worse as the vehicle goes faster. It does take considerable effort to steer at highway speeds as the resistance makes it difficult to not overcorrect when steering. When lane keep assist is on it can also be felt that it is struggling with the resistance in the steering. This started at around 5000 miles. The dealership states that it is the steering rack. There was no warning lamps. There is no tech safety bulletin or recall. This is a known problem and a potential safety issue.
Turning the steering wheel feels "sticky" or has excessive resistance, and i have to apply significant force to "break it loose" again, seems to happen at highway speeds intermittently. This issue makes it very difficult to keep the car in a straight line. the force needed to turn the wheel when it "sticks" causing unintentional overcorrections. This is extremely annoying to the driver, and possibly safety concern for keeping control of the car.
The steering wheel doesn't allow me or the lane keeping assisting system to make small adjustments. It's sticky and may cause over adjustments. Please check the link below. Most of the users have the same problem. https://
Steering sticky and stiff at highway speeds, requires additional effort to move from centered position.The vehicle is one year old with has roughly 15,000 miles and this just happened recently, oddly enough it appears to work fine at lower speeds.
Car is at about 14k miles. I noticed at high speeds (on the interstate highway) around 55-70 mph, the steering wheel starts to stick. When keeping my car inside the lanes it is very difficult to do so without accidentally jerking the steering wheel, because of it sticking. The steering wheel does not stick when moving at speeds slower than this.
At approximately 20,000 miles the vehicle has issues with the steering wheel sticking, adversely affecting the ability to steer the vehicle safely. The issue appears after the vehicle has warmed up and is more noticeable while in the higher RPM range at approximately >40 MPH. The steering feels locked in place with the driver needing to fight the steering in order to control the vehicle. The amount of adjustment needed to steer the vehicle causes the steering to overcompensate and causes the steering to stick in the opposite direction which requires the driver to fight the steering the entire time the vehicle is operated. This issue presents a great safety concern to both the drivers/passengers in the vehicle and other drivers as the fatigue of manipulating the sticking/notched steering wheel can lead accident if the driver's inputs are not consistent with the steering defect. No warning light or or error codes are present.
The steering at highway speeds feels like it sticks at the 12:00 position, almost like a notch is there and I have to give it a little more movement to get the wheel itself to budge. The car also feels like it needs to be re-centered in the lane a lot and it tends to weave.
The steering has a tendency to "stick" and hold a direction to the left or right of center, requiring more force to bring back to center after a turn. This comes up during highway speeds where there is no "on centering" movement in the steering after a turn, rather, the steering feels notchy and "stuck" in a certain position and extra unusual amount of force is required to right the steering wheel back to center
