I was driving my wife to her doctors appointment in melbourne florida.

I went out to move my car in the driveway this morning and was shocked that my power steering had suddenly failed out of nowhere while backing up. The car was extremely hard to maneuver in the driveway (certainly can't drive it anywhere), and the power steering warning appeared on the dash. 20 minutes later, it was back to normal, but now i am afraid to drive it.

Steering wheel sticks while attempting to drive straight causing the car to either drive to the right or left. This happens while driving for approximately 30 minutes or so and especially has an effect on the vehicle at higher speeds. Multiple forums and over 60+ complaints on this and no recall yet?

I have a 2016 honda civic. After 20 minutes driving on the highway, the steering wheel stiffens up a lot and the car starts drifting left or right. Therefore, i have to use excessive force to move the steering wheel in the opposite direction it is drifting in. This occurs every couple minutes. I have to essentially drive in a zig zag formation to stay in the same lane. After getting off the highway and onto local…

I began to pull out of the parking lot of my workplace to head towards the freeway when suddenly my steering stops working. I work in a very busy area and traffic is very busy. Luckily, there was a red light and that i am a safe driver because if i would have gotten on the freeway i would have most likely gotten into a fatal accident. I am also very fortunate that the weather did not end up being inclement as it was…
