Purchased my van used in 2012. It had a steering issue but I was new to the feel of honda handling and thought it was ok and normal. I have had increasing issues with my capability to steer. There was an extended warranty recall on the power steering pump and reservoir but the previous owner of my van did not have it serviced. I called honda and they said it is passed warranty and cannot absorb the cost of the repair. I say, that since the problem was never fixed while under warranty, it should be fixed now because honda new about the problem while the time frame still obligated them to fix the problem. I am having difficulty steering my van, turning the van, with children in it, and so this is a safety issue that needs attention because it was not addressed and fixed when honda should have fixed it.

Driving through a local park with 3 speed tables, after crossing the 3rd table I heard a clunk from the engine on the passenger side, lost the power steering and the check charging system light came on. I had to keep driving as there was no safe place to stop. I drove slowly without power steering, the clunking contunied until something broke free and I noted it's location on the road in the rear view mirror. I was able to get back to the place within 30 mins so the part was still there. It was a metal ring with grooves on the outside, looked like a belt went on it. I got it to a shop and they told me the harmonic balancer was gone and that it would need to be replaced. Driving down the road and loosing steering is a big safety issue, and needs to be looked into by honda.
