Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“When driving perfectly straight and then having to make a slight adjustment the steering sticks a bit causing me to have to use more force which usually ends up with an over correction. I have also had the steering stick while going around a long bend and needed to use slight effort to get the wheel back to center, this is even more of an issue.”

NHTSA complaint #11567157, filed 2024-01

“A few months ago this started. Power steering is sticky, at highway speeds the steering wheel can be turned at a 45 degree angle and stick. at one point i can take my hands off the wheel and it will not return to center at highway speeds. Starts sticking at 20+ MPH and requires small increments to unstick the steering wheel.”

NHTSA complaint #11615720, filed 2024-09

“I have just reported to my Honda svc center with an up coming appt. While on hwy or secondary roads any speed the steering wheel literally sticks/locks and will steer you right out of your lane if you don't force it back and it's noticeable force to unlock it. Occurs whether or not drivers assist is on and getting worse. Mine is very noticeable even on slower lower speed roads curves or straight aways.”

“I have experienced the “sticky steering wheel” with my vehicle. Although it isn’t severe, it still is noticeable and I have adjusted my driving style to compensate. Luckily I have had no close calls yet but I constantly check to make sure it does not affect my driving.”

NHTSA complaint #11558003, filed 2023-12

“My Civic SI has developed sticky steering while on the highway. When driving 70mph in a straight line I have to put increased effort into turning the steering wheel. It can cause over steer if putting to much effort into trying to turn.”
