This car does not seem fuel efficient it goes through gas like candy. The gas is not filling up correctly - no matter which gas station I use. The AC lets out puddles of water. The suspension is slightly off it acts like an row boat on waves so like an S in certain rain situations like it has a loose slippery power steering suspension. My tires are not the issue because they are brand new from when I got the car last year in November. I only have a little over 10K miles on the car. Next the electrical keeps glitching. The night driving lights do not work correctly after Honda did the recall repair. I am taking it back to Hendricks Honda for the next oil change on 12/27 and to try and get it fixed under warranty but I think they did not disclose a defect on the car when I bought it used with very low miles.

I was driving back Thorne to Illinois on the highway from Florida vacation. My car shut off and could not continue to accelerate, at this point I’m in Georgia on [XXX] . I pulled over to the shoulder my car would not start. I towed it to Honda and they didn’t find the issue because there were no codes coming up and let us go home. Car turned on next morning and we continued to drive home. Well before we got to Nashville Tennessee the car shut off on the Highway again. We towed it to Honda again in Tennessee this time. We had to catch a ride home because Honda said it was unsafe to drive the car and they kept it to repair it. They said Both fuel pumps were not working and that they were going to order those parts and replace them. And go from there. And now they have called me saying they have replaced the fuel pump but the car is still having the same issues and the engineers says to start replacing thing and to start with the PCM and go from there. Currently the car is still at Honda Tennessee and they’re awaiting to get the PCM delivered to replace it in the car.

I was told by Honda Corporate to take the vehicle back to the dealership. I brought it again to the dealership at 587 miles. The dealership refused to see me for the problem. I was sold a vehicle that is known by Honda to have a defective back-up camera. This is fraud.

These systems are critical for safe driving, and their malfunctions put safety at risk by causing unintended lane departures, inability to avoid collisions, and failure to maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. The issue was confirmed by a dealer during the first service visit, but subsequent visits did not reproduce the problem, despite new pictures showing recent issues with visible mileage. The vehicle or component has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others.

EA23003 · Momentary Increased Steering Effort

Opened Nov 29, 2023 · Closed Jan 28, 2025

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Steering

On November 29, 2023, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened this Engineering Analysis (EA23003) to assess allegations of momentary increase in steering effort in model years (MY) 2022-2023 Honda Civic, 2023MY Honda CR-V, and 2023MY Acura Integra vehicles (subject vehicles). The complaints received by ODI alleged that the subject vehicles experienced a momentary increase in required steering effort (described as “sticky steering”) occurring mostly at highway speeds after driving for an extended amount of time; these complaints could not be duplicated during dealer service technicians’ quick test drives.  The complaints had been received over the previous two years with most occurring with low vehicle mileage. The steering gear of these vehicles is aided by an electrical power assist unit. This power assist unit inputs force on the steering rack via a worm gear and worm wheel assembly. During PE23005, Honda stated this condition of momentary increase in steering effort occurs due to two factors within this power assist unit. First, during manufacturing, the steering worm wheel goes through annealing and component conditioning processes. These processes cause internal stress and strain within the steering worm  wheel. This strain is slowly released over the first few months of the vehicle life. Over time, the released strain causes deformation of the teeth on the worm wheel, causing the worm gear to catch on the worm wheel. This catching results in the driver’s momentary increased steering effort. Second, the manufacturing process did not guarantee consistent grease application and, therefore, some subject vehicles received insufficient grease which contributed to the momentary increase in steering effort. During EA23003, ODI further analyzed the potential safety related consequences of the momentary increase in steering effort. NHTSA’s Vehicle Research and Test Center (VRTC) duplicated the allegations of increased steering effort. In addition, VRTC discovered the steering worm wheel and worm gear tended to push grease out of the meshing area, resulting in large amounts of grease resting on top of the worm wheel. Information Request responses collected and reviewed by ODI showed Honda had also discovered this additional root cause during NHTSA’s EA. In addition, Honda discovered the preload of the worm wheel gear spring was set too high, increasing the gear slide load and resulting in higher friction and increased torque fluctuation when steering. The number of consumer complaints made to ODI continued to increase with the expansion of scope from the PE to the EA. Additionally, during EA23003, ODI received ten complaints alleging a crash, in addition to the 13 complaints ODI had received as of the time it opened EA23003. In total, 23 crashes have been reported to ODI due to this alleged defect. On October 3, 2024, Honda filed NHTSA Recall No. 24V-744 to address this defect. The recall will provide consumers with a new steering worm wheel gear spring with a decreased load. Additionally, dealerships will add additional grease and relocate any grease sitting on top of the worm wheel back into the meshing area. The scope of this recall includes all Honda vehicles that were manufactured with this specific improperly produced steering worm wheel and spring. In view of the recall action being taken by Honda, ODI is closing EA23003. NHTSA reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances.
