Owner reports filed with NHTSA about this vehicle, newest first and reproduced as filed. They are unverified accounts: one proves nothing, and a pattern across many is the thing worth reading. Back to the full 2024 record →
After driving for a few minutes, the steering wheel will require additional effort to steer or keep the car centered in the lane followed by a sudden return to the normal level of effort. This can cause a over correction.
Steering Wheel sticks in the center position when driving above 30mph. Takes above average pressure to safely drive vehicle in a normal manner. Appears to be an issue with Hondas of the same year models
My Integra is doing what others have dubbed "sticky steering". About a month ago, I noticed the steering wasn't smooth and felt like it wasn't going to turn (tho it HAS always turned) it just feels like it's sticking. It gets worse sometimes and then I turn the wheel back and forth (once turned off) and it seems to help some, but it comes back happening again where it feels like it sticks. This should definitely be looked into because the feeling when it feels like it's stuck is not good and causes a bit of panic, even though like I said, so far, it has always turned. It's not smooth. There is definitely something wrong. And I see that others are having this same issue. Below details are an estimate. It's not something that happened just once, it's ongoing. But I'll note an approximate date when it started.
Steering progressively gets sticky and hard to move back to center when speeds are 45 and up. Usually will occur after some highway/higher speed driving. During turns the car will fight minimal adjustments the driver will try and make as well as trying to keep the car centered in a lane. With lane keep assist fully off and on the results are similar.
Sticky steering wheel occurs while driving on the highway, requiring a momentary increase in steering effort to unstick the wheel. Began yesterday 11/30/2023 at around 5,200 miles. Same exact symptoms that are described in Investigation EA23003 for the Honda Civic, Honda CRV, and 2023MY Acura Integra. I have an appointment scheduled with my Acura dealer service department for 12/5/2023 to look at the problem.
On November 18th, 2023, while traveling on 880 Northbound the moonroof shattered all of a sudden without warning while I was driving at freeway speeds on the freeway.
At higher speeds (i.e. 45+ mph) steering wheel feels 'sticky' when driving in a straight line. When driving like this and when I need to adjust the direction a little, the wheel feels stuck in the existing position (i.e. it resists movement) and only after pulling harder on it will it move - and when it moves it moves too much, so car looks like it is weaving around when simply trying to go in a straight line. After moving the steering wheel it loosens up and is OK, but then after going straight again for a few seconds, it gets sticky again. It does not happen all of the time, but seems to happen 70-80% of the time (so far). It is very dangerous, especially at high speeds.
La columna de dirección se queda como bloqueada y para realizar pequeñas correcciones cuando vas en la autopista debes aplicar un poco más de fuerza y esto hace que el carro se sienta inestable para conducir ya que debes sobre corregir para mantener el carro en el carril. Esta situación está muy peligrosa.
At highway speeds and for most speeds after driving at highway speeds, the steering will “stick”. The steering sticks in the center and slightly to the left when making slight left turns and take more than minimal effort to return the steering to center. Additionally, any small correction that need to be made while driving are made to be more difficult because of the sticky steering. Around town and on more aggressive turns, the steering is more normal. Issue has been consistent for several months. Appointment scheduled with dealer for 10/26/2023
Steering wheel is jerking/sticking and making it necessary to have to make steering adjustment and making the car swerve while driving. This seems to be a common occurrence on comparable Honda Civic models as well. This vehicle only has 2,800 miles on it.
Steering is notchy/sticky when turning. Has slight grab then it releases. Very subtle but forums say it is a potential recall.
Steering wheel is sticky at highway speed causing overcorrection to maintain the car in the lane. Especially concerning in rain.
When driving 65+ MPH on the highway the vehicle begins to glide. Left or right. It is hard to bring back into center. I noticed it when I get the car two months ago but it is getting worse to the point I’m uncomfortable driving it. I have noticed I am not the only one with this complaint. I also do have an appointment with my local Acura dealership to get this assessed.
The rear camera view that shows lines to assist in parking and taking the car out of the parking is so much misaligned that resulted my car hitting my garage when taking it out . Acura needs to address this to prevent the damages it can cause to the adjacent cars and properties
NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
