2023 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

My vehicle was giving me the “you’re going to collide with something warning which is a loud alarm. I wasn’t even close to anything. I called and they said they had people stopping by all day with the same complaint. Then he told me that it can even do it when there is a hard rain.

FOR THE 2023 HONDA CIVIC WHEN YOU TURN ON THE HEADLIGHTS THE FRONT AND REAR DEFROST BUTTONS ARE NOT ILLUMINATED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. AT NIGHT IF YOU HAVE CONDENSATION ON EITHER THE FRONT OR REAR WINDOWS YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE THE BUTTONS FOR DEFROST SINCE THEY ARE NOT ILLUMINATED. HONDA OF AMERICA TELLS ME THIS IS STANDARD CONDITION AND NOT A DEFECT. I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS IN ANY OTHER CAR I'VE OWNED.

My steering is very stiff/sticky when traveling at highway speeds. A lot of other cars of the same year, make and model are recalled for faulty steering rack. However, mine is not included in the recall therefore I’m stuck with a brand new car that is unsafe to drive.

The component / system failed is steering, and it is available for inspection. My safety (and others safety) was put at risk because the steering is sticky - it forces me to overcorrect when I am driving straight at highway speeds. While driving the car on the highway on mostly straightaway stretches, my steering sticks and forces me to correct to stay on a straight course. When I try to do that it overcorrects and forces me to move in an unexpected and unsafe way. I almost hit the car next to me when this first happened because it was so unexpected. I brought the car into Plaza Honda dealership at 2700 Nostrand Ave, Brooklyn NY 11210 on 9/28/23. We told them about the recall info and problems we were having with the car. We were told there were no current recalls on the car, and they advised that the car was "operating as designed". (See attached documents) There are no warnings, no warning lamps and no other symptoms - just sudden inability to control my vehicle The first time this occurred earlier in 2023 when the car hit about 10,000 miles

Investigation: EA23003 Momentary increase in steering effort or "sticky steering".

Driving on freeway on 12/2/2023 and the steering became difficult to handle. It felt that I lost my power steering. I exited the freeway and the car's steering seemed ok after all. The steering was fine for the remainder of the day. The next day, the problem happened again on a freeway. I can steer the car, but it requires more effort and it seems a bit jerky.

The contact owns a 2023 Honda Civic Type-R. The contact stated while driving approximately 40 MPH, the contact followed the road with a slight left curve. The contact stated that while turning the steering wheel to the left and then attempting to straighten the steering wheel, the steering wheel was difficult to turn. The contact had to use force to steer the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the rack and pinion gear needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact had researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V704000 (Steering). The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 8,000.

Steering wheel feels stickey when I am driving on the highway. I need to apply extra pressure to keep the vehicle in the proper lane. I just completed a four hour trip and became very tired due to having to make constant corrections

Periodically when traveling at 30 MPH and higher, the steering becomes difficult to make adjustments when going straight or negotiating curves. There’s a sticky sensation which requires higher efforts to overcome. I’ve taken my car into the dealer on two occasions, but they were unable to replicate the problem. The problem is often but sporadic.

Sticky steering wheel, lock steering, clicking sound, Terrible rear seats buckle, hard to click it. i have a 2023 Honda Civic, with all the recall issues, but my Vin number didnt make it to the recall. I've taking my car to Honda of Long Beach, Ca. They didnt find or fix anything. please help! I don't know what to do!
