Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

I have noticed recently that almost every time when I start the car, it stalls for a second then turns on. There were many times that the car will jerk when I accelerate after being stopped at a red light. The car seems to not have as much power as before. I feel as though I have to step on the gas more to keep up speed especially on the freeway. Fortunately, no accidents have occurred. I have not had the vehicle inspected because when I called my local Honda dealership, they said they did not have the parts to replace it. There are no warning messages or lamps. I cannot pinpoint the exact date I have noticed these occurrences but most likely for a few months now since January 2024.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

My AC system in my 2018 Honda has now failed twice under 80000 miles. The first time the compressor and condenser were leaking and failed around 50000 miles which the dealership said was due to a new refrigerant that Honda had started using for this generation of civics. Following this repair, Honda extended the warranty for these components of the AC system. Early in July 2024, I had the same issues with my AC blowing hot air only and making hissing and banging noises on the passenger side at around 75000 miles. Took this to the dealership and they again said that the compressor and condenser were leaking and had failed but also that the evaporator valve was leaking and failed due to the compressor and condenser issues. However, Honda has not extended their warranty for these parts and this would be an out of pocket cost. Honda needs to own up to their faulty AC system used in this generation of Honda civics and extend the warranty to all involved parts or issue a recall and properly fix the system so it isn’t failing every 18 months.

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

I am having the dealer look at my car next Thursday due to my steering wheel randomly going limp. It seems the car only does it when the engine is warmed up. I’ve noticed this issue when driving straight and mainly going around curves. When the steering goes limp, it cause me to over correct in which my car swerves. There are no warning lamps. This problem started around 70k miles for me and I am at 90k now and I feel the problem has worsened. Sometimes the car is hard to keep on a straight line, it feels as if the wind is always blowing and when you turn against the wind the steering goes loose for about .2 seconds.

Corrective Action:

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

Ongoing issue with steering sticking near center of range when driving. This causes a constant need to oversteer in order to free it from sticking. The issue increases with speed, to that point that highway speeds require a constant level of slight swerving to correct course. Has been duplicated by independent mechanic and dealer. Dealer diagnosed "internally binding power steering rack" that requires replacement of power steering gear assembly. Parts are unavailable with no ETA. Independent mechanic (Honda specialist) says it's not the first case he's seen with these cars.

STEERING

Potential Consequences:

The steering wheel is very “sticky” and “jerky”. The steering wheel will momentarily get stuck in its place until enough pressure is applied to unstick it, resulting in the car jerking constantly. It is especially noticeable at high speeds which is more dangerous. Online I see a lot of owners experiencing this exact same issue. I believe there needs to be a recall or extended warranty for the part responsible for the steering issue.
