While driving my 2022 Civic at freeway speeds beginning to notice steering wheel isn-??t responding as smoothly as normal. Car tends to drift in lane and when you correct steering wheel sticks and feels similar to the lane keeping assistance even though it is turned off. Seems to be getting more noticeable and steering isn-??t as responsive
At highway speeds, the steering wheel will stick a few degrees from center on either side when allowing the wheel to return to its neutral position. When making minor adjustments while travelling straight, the wheel will give increased resistance at the points mentioned above. This can be possibly dangerous if a driver assumes the wheel will behave normally when completing a turn or overcompensating during minor adjustments. This can be especially true during inclement weather conditions where minor adjustments or wheel sticking may affect the driver's ability to correct an otherwise avoidable traction related incident.
When driving at higher speeds on the freeway my steering becomes resistant. Causing over correcting. One day when it was very windy driving to work after over correction I blew into the other lane, luckily no one was close enough. Driving on the freeway for long periods of time causes hand cramps from the amount of grip it requires to keep it center lane. This is a safety issue. I have taken it to Honda on 3 separate occasions for the same issue and every time they say there is nothing wrong.
Car wanders, and when moving the wheel slightly in either direction it will stay in that direction and not return to the center without help. The wheel also sticks to the center and requires a bit more force to move occasionally.
When im on freeway my car steering wheel starting to feel like sticky and im always fighting to steering to be staright on the road.and its always going right.and when im in idle i can feel and hear a bumping sounds under my vehicle when i slowly turning it right.

Steering became difficult and unresponsive at times. Car barely has 3000 miles on it. Took to Honda dealership for inspection. They test drove car and I was told the following needed to be replaced and recommended leaving car there for repairs. Repair rack and pinion assembly, update control unit, update VSA and EPS systems, alignment. 2 weeks to get a part leaving me stuck having to pay for a rental car for weeks.
The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH and making a left turn, there was significant resistance while turning the steering wheel back to the center position. The contact stated that the failure had been occurring mainly after making turns at faster speeds. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the failure was associated to an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000.
El problema comenzó a las 18,000 millas, el manejo del vehículo a ido empeorando, ahora tiene 22,000 millas y lo hace a poca velocidad de manejo, el problema el que el volante tiene ruido al girar y se atasca durante el manejo, tengo que forzar el volante para que quede línea recta, lo lleve a la garantía y los técnicos me dijeron qué hay una falla interna del Rack & Pinion failure, pero los técnicos no han tomado este problema muy en serio, no me siento seguro manejándolo
While driving the 2022 Civic sport 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. 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. Around 5000 miles the steering wheel will begin having a loose change noise when turning to the left behind the horn, around 10,000 miles the steering wheel will begin locking up and not allowing the driver to correct it and will pull the car to different sides of the road. If you go to the dealership everyone pretends like it-??s unreal but check any forum and 1000s of people are experiencing these problems with 2022 Civics
My steering wheel is starting to stick, I have to pull harder than normal for it to turn, it's led me to over correct it by accident on the highway to get it to move. Others have had this issue on these Civics as well. If it gets worse I can see this being very dangerous if it gets worse.
The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel momentarily seized. The contact stated that extra effort was needed to turn the steering wheel, causing the driver to overcompensate while attempting the turn the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure occurred while driving in a straight line, or while the steering wheel was stationary. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.
Steering wheel/rack in car feels as if it-??s sticking, giving resistance, and notchy. Driving car at highway speeds the steering seems to be less responsive and doesn-??t want to continue to stay straight. Has a jittery feeling as if it wandering. Lane assist has been turned off and issue still occurred. The problem seems to be getting worse and the car feels unsafe to drive. Car has not been to dealer yet waiting in appointment. Car has no been inspected by any of the following: manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others No warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure when the issue started. Noticed issue on 12/6/22. Roughly 8600 miles on vehicle.
Starting around 38k miles the steering will get stuck in the middle position causing me to use extra force to free the wheel. This causes an over compensation and swerving. It-??s especially worse at higher speeds than 40 mph. I feel this could cause an accident. It happens with lane keep assist on or off. I have not seen any fault lights on the dash and have not taken to a dealer or mechanic yet, but I will soon.
The steering wheel sticks at times. Driving straight and in turns. It's a slight stick, but increasingly more noticeable. While driving straight it happens if I don't touch the wheel for a few seconds. Then I'll need to make a minor correction and it's stuck. I have to put some decent pressure on the wheel to make it unstuck, which causes an over-correction
At medium to high speeds (40 - 70 MPH ) the steering wheel sticks in left and right directions with all lane keeping and Honda safety turned off. It takes a decent amount of force to correct the steering and causes jerky reactions causing my car to dramatically bounce between lane lines. This is a major safety issue as on a curvy road I can easily veer off road or into oncoming lanes. This is a major issue and have found a lot of other Honda Civic owners are seeing the same issue. There are no indicator lights on the dash when this happens. I have tried to correct issue by changing the steering wheel location via the telescope position with no change. I plan to take my car in to service ASAP as it is unsafe to drive on my daily 100mi commute.
While driving, the steering wheel will stick and require extra effort to turn the wheel. While not currently life-threatening, this has all the potential to become fatal. There has been some reproductions at service centers, but my vehicle has not been inspected yet, and there are no warning lights or prompts.
I own a 2022 Honda Civic sport and I am having steering issues. When going over 30+mph, the steering wheel feels very STICKY, on the highway the wheel will stay in a slightly turned position and not return to center, It causes resistance when making small corrections which then gives away when applying pressure, over correcting and making driving dangerous. This started around 8k miles and I now have almost 12k with no fix (I've had the car since 5 miles). Driving this car at first was one of the most fun experiences, but now its getting tiring with this big issue that dealers around my area cannot fix.
When driving straight on the freeway for a certain amount of time, the steering wheel sticks and I would have to apply more force to adjust the steering. I had the dealership run a diagnostic and they updated the software but the problem still persists. The steering is sensitive and applying extra amount of pressure is dangerous, especially on rainy days.
My steering wheel becomes sticky once I get to highway speeds. Attempting to make any micro adjustments becomes difficult because it requires more force and causes over correction. It doesn-??t happen as often when temperatures are lower though. Seems more common when it-??s warm out. Have not gone to the dealer yet.
