2018 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

The steering wheel is very “sticky” and “jerky”. The steering wheel will momentarily get stuck in its place until enough pressure is applied to unstick it, resulting in the car jerking constantly. It is especially noticeable at high speeds which is more dangerous. Online I see a lot of owners experiencing this exact same issue. I believe there needs to be a recall or extended warranty for the part responsible for the steering issue.

The steering wheel sticks & resists movement when traveling at highway speeds. It is resistant to minor steering corrections away from or toward center. This results in a jerky ride and movement when keeping within my lane.

We have 2 civics 2018 & 2019 both need AC Evap Core, had other parts replaced under warranty but this isn't covered and its $3000.00

I was stranded on the road after filling up gas my car would not start due to the fuel pump recall I tried calling different Honda dealerships for the recall and they all said they didn’t have it due to back order. Is there something that can be done so my car doesn’t have anymore damage then it does now?

The steering rack is failing, which is confirmed by the Brandon Honda Service Department. The steering wheel sticks when in a left turn and the driver must push it back into a straight position to straighten out the car while driving. We are worried that it will not push back one day and cause problems while driving, which has prevented us from driving the car for longer distances. This problem started in April 2024. We know there is a recall for this part in Honda's, but my car does not fall under the recall because of the V.I.N. number. THIS PART IS ON BACK ORDER FOR MONTHS!

The electric power steering is bad in this model vehicle. Once the car is warmed up, it begins to have a stick/jerky steering wheel. It is difficult to make minor adjustments while driving straight, as the wheel jerks one way or the other when there is a problem. There is a recall on the EPS on 2018 Honda Civics, however my VIN does not fall into the recall, and it should because it is a faulty part and is unsafe to drive. The sticky steering wheel will even show itself when in park. Steering should be smooth and this should not be an issue on a car with such low mileage. I have taken the vehicle to a certified Honda mechanic and they recommended replacing the EPS rack. This should not be an issue on a car this new.
