2023 Honda CR-V - STEERING Failure Complaint (#b0bebb)

2023 Honda CR-V

  • Date of Incident: Apr-14, 2024
  • Date complaint filed: Apr-15, 2024
  • Failed components: STEERING

When i'm driving at highway speeds, and have been in a lane for some time, if the lane starts to arc to the right or left, i find that i have to exert some force to get the car to follow the lane. In other words, the steering wheel seems to be stuck to keep the car going in a particular direction, and requires me to "un-stick-it" to stay in my lane. This issue also occurs when i'm managing a highway overpass, wherein, if i have to change the arc of the turn tighter or looser to stay in my lane, i'll have to exert some force to un-stick the steering wheel. I can't remember when i haven't had this problem with the car, since i typically don't drive highways that often - most of my driving is on city streets, however, i believe i started noticing this problem since the fall of 2023. I'll drive to check on a project i have in arlington, tx or to an office building i manage in farmers brach, tx from my home in plano, tx about one or twice a month, and that's when i'll notice it. The most recent time i noticed it was this past sunday [xxx] as i drove from my home in plano to farmers branch (approx 15 miles one way).
