2017 Honda Civic - STEERING Failure Complaint (#b0b19d)

2017 Honda Civic

  • Date of Incident: Mar-15, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Mar-27, 2024
  • Failed components: STEERING

Steering wheel "sticks." I has been doing it since around 40,000 miles. It has gotten worse with time. While driving in straight line after it warms up the steering wheel does not move when trying to make micro adjustments and then when it does it jerks and causes the driver to overcompensate. Makes driving very tiring and unsafe. It is difficult to keep the car driving straight when tis happens. I can see there have been recalls regarding this problem with newer Civics, like 22-23, but mine has been doing it and it is a 2017. Last time it happened was recently while my drive was driving and I was out of town on 3/15/24.
