    While in motion at highway speeds. And even at slower speeds of 25-45 mph the car will sway left to right and i will overcompensate to correct the sway. It will start to pull right when i slowly try to correct it by shifting the wheel to the left. As a result it will jerk sharply causing a loop of corrections leaving myself and other drivers feeling unsafe. This has been an issue for months. Ive tried adjusting the…

    While driving straight on the freeway the steering sticks while making small corrections to keep the car straight in the lane. Its a catchy feeling causing me to overcompensate after it catches/sticks. Also when sitting still waiting for a stop light the steering seems to jump a notch by itself.

    The steering sticks at highway speeds causing the driver to overcompensate and making it impossible to stay within the lanes. Also the steering wheel does not go back to center.

    The vehicle, after being driven the day prior without issues or any engine lights, will not start the next morning. The only engine light that is on is the electronic power steering light. When i try to start the car, the battery doesn't even click. I even jumped the battery to reinforce the idea that this is likely not related to the battery - still no clicking. After online research, i found that there was a…

    When driving at over 50 when it's over 80 degrees. The steering acts up! When try to adjust a little bit it resist and then let's go slightly. It makes you over steer a bit. It's not a comforting thing when it keeps doing that! I found online that there is supposed to get a recall for steering assist. The magnet has come loose and out of place and causes this to happen! Please look in to this problem!

    My honda civic 2017 car was in my driveway not moving when i turned the car on and all my warning lights came on and i had no power steering. I had my car towed to honda and they saw that my sub wiring harness was chewed which caused the problem. Honda says this wiring is made from soy based material which attracts rodents. They replaced the wiring and it cost me 268.00 dollars. The part itself was only 28.00…

About 2 and half weeks later, the steering wheel felt stiff and the grinding noise returned while turning the steering wheel at 180 degrees. I took the vehicle back again and now i was being told that both left and right axels…
