2016 Honda Civic

The steering wheel sticks in the center making it hard to make steering adjustments without overcorrecting and moving out of driving lanes. I am constantly veering from left to right when trying to steer car in a straight line. It is worse at higher speeds and very tiring to drive the car. When my wife informed the dealer, they said someone will get back to her. It has been 3 weeks. The car is so unsafe to drive especially highway speeds that we take our other car when possible. Took car to repair shop and they agreed with our concern A search on the internet shows a major concern with these cars about this steering issue

After approximately 20k miles, the steering began to "stick". When the issue occurs, it takes more force than usual to turn the wheel slightly, causing me to have to over-correct to center the car. The issue usual occurs during highway driving and after the outside temperature rises. For example, the problem appears to go away during the winter, but re-appear during spring and summer. I have brought the vehicle in for inspection to the original dealer who failed to reproduce the issue.

I drive a 2016 Honda Civic ex and the steering is sticky and jerky when driving. This doesn't seem very safe when driving especially at highway speeds when the steering sticks then jerks either to the left or right when trying to get the steering to unstick. There have been tons of reported problems of the same issue by other Honda Civic owners of the same generation car who most have said the electric power steering rack is the issue. I have brought the car to the dealer to figure out the problem and while they acknowledged that something wasn't right, told me that they don't know what's causing it and therefore won't bother replacing any parts to try and fix it. While the car was in getting looked at I was then told that there were no lights or codes that were shown even though something is clearly wrong. This steering issue has been going on for over a year and it has yet to be figured out. https://youtu.be/w5x_CaVHXmM- This is exactly what is happening.

The steering wheel sticks intermittently. About 50% of the time, when making minor inputs to maintain lane, the steering wheel will "resist" and require additional pressure. When additional pressure is applied the steering wheel suddenly "breaks free" and causes over-steering. This over-steering causes lots of swerving and occasionally causes me to leave my lane. I have nearly been in several head-on accidents. The issue does not occur every time I drive the vehicle but when it starts, it continues until I stop and turn the vehicle off. The issue happens at all speeds. There are no warning lights or indicators on the dash. The issue started a couple days after taking the vehicle home after purchasing. There are 25000 miles on the vehicle and the vehicle will be in the shop next week.

The contact owns a 2016 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH, the steering wheel failed to respond immediately however, abruptly the steering wheel responded causing the vehicle to veer into the other lane. The contact stated that the failure was ongoing. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that after slowing down, the vehicle operated as designed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed; however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

My 2016 Honda Civic has the following problem. The steering "sticks" and is very sensitive to turning when it "catches". It is getting worse and is way worse at interstate speeds. It causes the vehicle to swerve sometimes when correcting and could make you overcorrect and lose traction and run off the road or into another lane of traffic very easily. It will be at a Honda Dealership within the week to be officially diagnosed but it is definitely a safety issue and it barely has 60,000 miles on it. NO warning lights are displayed.
