Creaming sound when steering and it’s known issue with this vehicle
2022 Honda crv. The battery was old and had low voltage. There were no warnings of this and no issues starting car. While idling at light at intersection the entire car just died. It was on and there was power to it, but everything broke and it appeared like there was some kind of major electrical disfunction. No steering no brakes could not shift could not turn car on or off. Towed to Honda dealer. They replaced battery and confirmed this can happen on the road while idling if battery is getting old. Very dangerous
The steering is sticky. It feels stuck when going around curves. This creates a jerky driving experience and I'm worried it could cause an accident on wet or icy roads.
Sticky steering wheel gears and creaky sounds when turning. Confirmed at dealership during inspection. Current recalls for this part include the 2023-2025 crv so they will not fix it for me even though they confirmed it’s the same problem the recalled cars have
When I am driving on the highway my steering wheel sticks and its difficult to slow down and make either a right or left turn.
The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving and steering the vehicle, the steering wheel was sticking. Additionally, the vehicle made an abnormal grinding sound while turning the steering wheel. The contact stated that the failure increased while driving 60-80 MPH on the highway and caused a safety risk. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the steering rack and pinion had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, and an alignment was performed. The contact associated the failure with an unknown recall. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
Vehicle Information: * VIN: [XXX] * Year/Model: 2022 Honda CR-V EX I brought my vehicle to an authorized Honda Service Center on 09/23/2026, where the Service Manager informed me that my vehicle's specific VIN is not actively flagged for the [XXX] recall in their system. As a result, they refused to perform the required gearbox spring replacement and lubrication remedy free of charge. Because this is a known, verified manufacturing flaw involving the annealing process and excessive spring preload of the Hitachi Astemo steering gearboxes, the fact that my VIN was omitted from the initial campaign does not absolve American Honda of its liability to repair a dangerous vehicle defect. Driving this vehicle is a severe hazard to myself and others on the road. I request that American Honda immediately issue a corporate goodwill authorization to my local dealer to replace or repair the steering gearbox assembly according to the recall technical service bulletin specifications. Please contact me within 3 business days to establish a case number and coordinate the scheduling of this vital safety repair. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The steering is sticky when changing lanes at highway speeds.
My 2022 Honda CRV Hybrid is experiencing the widely documented 'sticky seering' medhanical defect, causing the vehicle to momentarily catch, stick and jerk at highway speeds, creating a severe overcorrection and crash hazard. The dealership (Skyway Honda Bartlesville, OK) confirmed the rack and pinion system is failing but wants to charge me almost $4789.87 in parts/labor to repair it because Honda corporate has not yet extended the official 24v-744 recall to the 2022 model year.
