2024 Honda Civic Steering Problems

I took my 2024 Honda Civic Sport to my local Honda dealership due to concerning issues with the steering. After diagnosing the problem, the dealership determined that the car needed a full steering rack replacement. They contacted Honda, who agreed to cover part of the repair, but I was told I would have to pay $600 out-of-pocket. Given the newness of the vehicle, I believe this is a safety defect that should be fully covered under a recall, as I should not have to pay for such a major issue on a nearly brand-new car.

I’ve taken my car to the dealer multiple times for an issue with steering and a loud clunk in my front end that wasn’t there when I bought it. I’ve constantly been told it’s normal or nothing is wrong but it’s becoming a real concern for me to drive I’ve almost been veered into oncoming traffic because the car wanders and steering doesn’t react very well. I’ve tried switching wheels and tires and still same issue. I need help because this car is unsafe to drive.

At speeds 35+ MPH the steering has a “sticky” “notch” feeling making steering at high speed very difficult to do smoothly, especially when cornering. This has led to close-calls nearly resulting in accidents, but fortunately being avoided. I suspect it has to do with the steering rack issue that is a common complaint with this MY.

The contact owns a 2024 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving approximately 15 MPH on a rainy day and pulling into driveway at the residence, the steering wheel became very loose and then very firm. The contact stated that the LKAS feature activated and independently steered the vehicle over to the right. The contact attempted to turn the steering wheel to the left, but the vehicle failed to respond. The contact stated that the brake pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle made an abnormal sound before sliding like it was on ice and crashed into two other vehicles parked in the driveway which did minor damages to both vehicles. The contact lost consciousness from the impact with the first vehicle for approximately one second. The contact stated that after crashing into the second vehicle, the vehicle temporarily returned to normal operation and the brake pedal was depressed; however, the steering wheel was still firm and unresponsive. The contact stated that no air bags deployed during the crash. The contact then called 911 for assistance. No medical attention was required because the contact had not suffered any injuries. The contact stated that a Police Report was filed. The local dealer was contacted and provided the contact a number to call however, the number was inoperable. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V744000 (STEERING); for which the VIN was included. The contact stated that the local dealer was contacted several times over several months but was unable to provide the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and the vehicle was towed a collision center. There was no information if the vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

The steering system of my vehicle frequently locks, sticks, and slips, creating a serious safety hazard and putting both myself and others on the road at risk of losing control. I have reported this issue to Honda multiple times, but no permanent solution has been provided, and Honda denies that the problem exists. Two independent service centers have confirmed the issue. The vehicle has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives, but technicians at both Honda and the independent centers have observed the malfunction. The problem first occurred on 10/08/2024, and waiting for the lengthy arbitration process is unsafe. I request that NHTSA urgently investigate this issue.
