| Apr 2024 | STEERING,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | I got my recall done already, however, the problem is getting worst after 2 weeks of regular driving. The steering will suddenly gets hard/stiff when driving. It makes it hard to turn and it's dangerous when driving on freeway. I almost got into an accident on the freeway because the car in the front change lane last minute without signalling, and at the time my stiff steering acting up and cause the delay of turning. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | When driving straight or turning the steering wheel just sticks (jams). It is constant and in cases of turning slightly on curves, it jams and just stays jammed for a while or until I snap it back in place. Crazy my car just jumps, very scary at times. I took it to the dealer for the steering rack recall 23V-704 I received and thought it would be repaired, but the dealer told me that my steering wheel issue was not part of the recall, it was something else. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | Sticky steering at highway speeds causes it to be difficult to maintain lane. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | Steering wheel sticks and jerks when being corrected. It makes it impossible to make micro adjustments or steer smoothly while driving. Feels very unsafe when taking curves and the wheel remains stiff. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | Steering wheel is sticking at speed of 45mph or above. Terrified to drive this car. Was unable to steer away from a deer running into the road out of fear of over correction and hit the deer. | Crash: Yes Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | I'm encountering a sticky sensation in the steering wheel, accompanied by clunking noises when I turn it. This poses a significant safety concern, particularly during highway driving, as it impairs my ability to maintain smooth control of the vehicle. The issue persists even when driving off the highway. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | The steering has become "sticky." I have roughly 33000 miles on the car and it started within the last couple of weeks. It occurs every time I drive. I plan on calling the dealer today to report it. It is definitely a safety hazard. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | Sticky steering | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | While driving I find it extremely difficult to maneuver my steering wheel. My steering wheel is tightening up or glued to a certain position. I was forced to unsafely wobble the steering wheel from right to left to untighten it from being locked up, which I have found to be the only solution. My steering wheel is making my car a hazard to the road and will eventually injure or kill me, or someone else. I took it to the dealer twice and they just angrily brushed my concerns away and said that they cannot duplicate it. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | SUSPENSION,WHEELS,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | My 2022 Honda Civic has been having issues with the EPS Rack and Parts. There has been a recall on this part on the Honda Civics and unfortunately my vehicle was not on the list of cars that was made in the manufacturing time. My car is extremely hard to turn the steering wheel while driving and it causes my cruise control steering system to not work correctly almost causing many accidents. I have also had to buy 2 new sets of tires as it has caused them to wear down faster. Ive had alignments and the car will still steer me to the right direction. The front tires rub very harshly when I need to make a turn. When turning it makes many noises. When I go start to go about 45mph the car will start shaking very harshly until 80mph. The car started to shake and make clunking noises about 6 months in to me having the vehicle and the Honda dealership said it was normal and the issues continued to get worse. As soon as I saw the recall come out I quickly scheduled an appointment for it to be looked at just for my specific car to not be on the list but have all issues that the recall is creating on these vehicles. This is very dangerous as I have small children and the issues continue to worsen. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | I'm experience a sticky steering to the left when driving past 40mph is been going for a few months and now is getting worst, now i can hear a clunk kind of sound when driving and the steering is starting to feel unsafe, please address this issue with a recall!!! | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | [UNKNOWN] I have noticed a clicking sound when turning my steering wheel, sticky steering, vibration in my steering wheel, terrible grinding sounds while driving, terrible steering control as well. I have a gash in my rim from having no steering control to avoid pot holes. It’s to the point I either hit the pothole or have a head on collision. I have read that customers are having the same issues after they have the recall taken care of. (HONDA NEEDS TO DO A FULL CIVIC RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED!!) it’s to the point where the dealerships and customer service are giving different information to the customers affected. I don’t know what to believe anymore. Do a full car recall before someone is killed, accident’s have already been reported with this recall. It’s not right for a valued customer to go through such. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE BEHIND THE WHEEL OF MY OWN CAR!!! It’s very Disturbing to imagine driving down the road and you get into a collision and take someone’s life if not your own due to a vehicle safety recall. That should be the last thing on someone’s mind when they get into their vehicle. All of my concerns, and issues listed above are for my 2022 civic. I had my vehicle looked at today, the dealerships look confused with this issue. They have to wait for a higher up to let them know proper information as to what’s needed, the vehicle needs an entire recall!! As I said I don’t feel safe and I’m not alone. This issue is not being corrected the proper way. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | * Steering wheel binds while turning left, usually around 3 degrees. Breaks free with very light touch. * Steering wheel can kick to the left while returning to neutral from a right turn * Steering wheel was strongly kicked to the left about 6 degrees while going up hill. * Going up or downhill greatly increases the incident rate. The vehicle was taken in several times for this issue. It was taken in for a recall notice, and they said they checked the parts to find nothing wrong. I'm - very - certain they did nothing. My car has since been removed from the recall notice on Honda's website. They were only to recreate the issue once since then with zero resolution. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | When driving at high way speeds my steering wheel has been sticking which makes minor corrections much more difficult while at speed. With having to put in more effort to steer this could lead to an overcorrection in the turn which is a huge safety concern. This is a different issue than the current recall of the faulty EPS repair part being faulty. This is the original part in the car that is having the issue with the EPS gearbox or motor. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | Over the past several months I noticed that the steering in my 2022 Civic would occasionally stick while driving at highway speeds. While turning through curves, the steering wheel felt like it would briefly lock into position and then would take some effort to turn it back on center. The problem has been getting progressively worse since then. The steering now sticks at lower speeds as well and makes noise while turning. No warning lights or error messages have ever come up. On March 30, 2024, I brought my Civic to a Honda dealership and the techs there confirmed the steering was faulty, consistent with Service Bulletin 23-037, and said my electric power steering gearbox would need to be replaced. Since the vehicle has 42,000 miles on it, the repair is no longer covered under the initial warranty. The dealership quoted me a price of just over $2,500 for the repair but said the part was on backorder and couldn't be completed at that time anyway. The service manager submitted a "goodwill request" to ask if Honda would cover the repair, but I have not heard back yet. I followed up with the dealership who said they haven't gotten a response from Honda yet either. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | My son had a problem with the steering wheel steak during he was starting a trip, this was very dangerous for him, the car currently have 11 alarm in the panel with relationship the direction and drive assistance. The vehicle not has been evaluated for any mechanic or dealer, so we live in Bagdad far away of dealers. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | The contact owns a 2022 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel was difficult to maneuver without warning. As a result, it was difficult to maintain control of the vehicle. The contact eventually regained control and parked the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 44,000. | Crash: No Fire: No | 44,000 |
| Apr 2024 | FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | On multiple occaisions the forward collision braking system has engaged erroniously while traveling on highways or interstates. Sudden heavy braking in these scenarios is disorienting and puts my at higher risk of rear end collision and of traction loss. The Honda dealer has been made aware of the issue but has dismissed it and refused to forward the complaint to Honda. There were no warnings or notifications other than the indicator that the forward collision braking system was being engaged. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | While driving steam started to appear from the engine bay. I pulled over to inspect, lifted up the hood and could hear the fuel line popping and gasoline hissing out. The engine bay spontaneously caught fire. As it ignited all of the gasoline in the air combusted and created a ball of fire in my face as I was looking in the engine bay. The fire was put out by the fire department. An incident report was created. The potential for safety risk was high and could have been worse if I was not on a road where I was able to stop or if it caught fire while I was inside the car. The vehicle has been inspected by Insurance and confirmed to be a total loss. Since nothing was left to visually inspect of the car their investigation came back nonconclusive as to the cause. There were no indication lights that there was anything wrong with the engine. | Crash: No Fire: Yes Injuries: 1 Medical attention | Unknown |

| Apr 2024 | STEERING | On 4/4/2024 i filed a complaint about my sticky steering. Today 4/15/2024 about 10 minutes into my drive my tpms light came on. 10 seconds later my car wobbled a bit but it kinda felt like my sticky wheel so i thought i was ok. About 10 seconds after the wobble it did it again only harder this time. The steering wheel got locked at the 10 position and made me smash into the concrete highway barrier. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Injuries: 1 Towed | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | I just bought a certified used 2022 Honda civic touring on 4/13/24 with 72,000 miles and experiencing a sticking steering wheel feeling that is most noticeable driving at high speed but also driving around the city. It gets worse the longer I drive in one session. The wheel sticks and then jerks when corrected. It feels extremely unsafe. I first noticed this issue driving home from the dealship. No warning lights or messages indicating anything was wrong. Im new to these newer vehicles so i thought I had some type of driving assist on so i googled and it seems that I am not the only person experiencing this SAFETY issue. I will be taking it into a Honda dealership to be looked at. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2024 | STEERING | I have been experiencing sticky steering over the past 8 months and thought that getting the recall fixed would fix the issue but I still find my self applying a little extra force to remain center in a lane driving at 60mph +. When trying to stay centered and attempt to make corrections I often times over correct causing me to sway more then usual. Although I have had any accidents yet, I do feel there is a greater risk of one just from over correcting just to get the steering wheel to move. There arent any warning light on. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
