FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
This Incident occurs daily and poses a SEVERE risk to not only myself but other vehicles on the road, with ADAS systems off the 11th gen civics seem to have a mind of its own. When traveling above 40 Mph on a long curvy road/highway or raining, the steering wheel becomes "Notchy" and will lock in place for moments at a time. The only way to gain control of the steering wheel is to apply extra force and once applied the steering wheel is released and causes the driver to overcorrect. I purchased my civic 2 months ago purely for its reliability and the safety ratings given by the NHSTA. Honda has initially released the service bulletin to address their faulty replacement racks stating "certain service part electric power steering (EPS) gearbox assemblies were not made to proper specification. " In reality this is a LIE they are trying to say the scope is less than 5% of their vehicles but the truth is that every single vehicle sold with this same rack has or will in the short future report this issue, some drivers think it is only "annoying" and some dealers are telling customers its "Normal" I am completely appalled that there has not been a Stop-sale issued for this as the main component of a car is the steering and if that is faulty than what else matters! they have managed to put the same rack in multiple vehicles in the last few years and you wont begin to experience the issue unless you drive (few 1,000MI on the car) longer than 45 minutes. Civic Type R's are less likely to experience this as that vehicle uses a different rack (Probably more $). Owners who have gotten a replacement eps system are finding the issue to reoccur after 12 months. This points to the fact that not only is this a manufacturing/Quality issue but a PURLEY FAILED Engineering design. I have an appt with a dealer but they will replace the rack with another faulty one, Honda needs to shut everything down and put the safety of their customers first before we all end up dead or kill someone.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
My 2022 Civic Sport experienced the sticky steering problem. The Steering Rack and EPS motor were replaced by Honda. However, this should be documented as it was an unsafe situation. Starting at 20,000 miles I noticed some odd steering behavior. Above 42,000 miles the steering situation got increasingly worse. The steering wheel would get stuck at a position and take an unusual amount of force to get it to change. This would occur normally at speeds above 40mph. It was most noticeable when making a minor steering adjustment after not moving the wheel for a while. This occurred turning in both directions and when driving in a straight line or "locked in" a curve. It was worst at temperatures 35-55F and once the car was driven 20 minutes or more. After 20 minutes it would progressively get worse. It did not occur at low temperatures around 10-15F and the steering was noticeably stiffer at these temperatures. It also did not occur when constantly adjusting the wheel around turns. However, as soon as the wheel was held in a position it would start sticking again. The problem occurred with the lane keep assist and lane departure safety features turned off; it appears unrelated to those systems. The steering would also feel odd when pulling in or backing into parking spots. It felt like you could feel each notch in a gear when turning the wheel. I was able to overpower the steering wheel. However, I hate to think of what this could do to an inexperienced or distracted driver. They could fail to adjust the steering or panic and put in too much force and loose control. It could also delay a drivers reaction time. This is a safety issue. I feel a recall is needed since this issue can be hard to reproduce by the dealer. There were no warning lights or messages.

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
While driving and turning the steering wheel away from the 12 o'clock position, the steering wheel (power steering) will not return by itself to the 12 o'clock position after completing the turn. There will also sometimes be a force needed to turn the steering wheel past the 1 o'clock or 11 o'clock position in situations where the turn is sharper but does not exceed the need to turn the steering wheel past the 3 o'clock position. The steering issue only occurs during cornering situations and more frequently on banked turns. The steering issue occurs in both steering directions in the same manner as described above. The steering issue occurs with Lane Keeping Assist turned off. Lane departure notice is active. No electronic messages or indications occur during the steering situation that would indicate Lane departure safety systems were activating. Vehicle has approximately 50k miles. The issue has been noticeable for approximately the past 10k miles. I have had no repairs performed by any dealership to date for any car related issues. Honda recommended maintenance schedule has been followed to date. I have been informed by a Honda Dealership that the serial number associated with my power steering rack is not currently covered under the Manufacturer Recall Number YFW or NHTSA Recall Number 23V-704.The vehicle has recently passed State Inspections without any abnormal wear on tires noticed by the same Honda Dealership that informed me of the issue with the power steering rack.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
The steering wheel sticks about 70% of the time I drive the car. I have to use more pressure to make minor adjustments than normal. I'm guessing it's the steering rack or something similar. It takes my focus away from other things I should be paying attention to while driving. I need this fixed ASAP.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
While driving the car with the cruise set at any random speed, the adaptive cruise control would "cancel" and a long beep noise would sound. When attempting to "resume" cruise control, three quick beeps can be heard and the cruise control would not activate. The car has to be shut off and cranked back up for the cruise control to work again. The dealership I took it to claimed they could not recreate the issue. There are no DTC codes and no warning lights. It has been happening since I purchased the vehicle in February of 2022. The sudden cancellation of the cruise control can pose a safety issue for drivers behind me and myself.

Defect Description:
STEERING
Potential Consequences:
At some point in 2023 I took my car to Honda because all of the dashboard lights came on randomly. They told me there was an issue with the a sensor in the steering column and that they would fix it under warranty. Now several months later I’m noticing a sticky feeling when driving at highway speeds. The wheel needs a tad bit of force/jerk to make the slightest adjustment. I’ve had 2 other drivers drive my car that have reported the same issue. One driver said that they thought the car needed power steering fluid not knowing that it was electrical steering.
Corrective Action:
