Every time I turn the wheels it feels like something's about the break there's this loud grinding noise. It can't be just nothing the noise is too severe. Apparently they ordered the par and then it's not the right part because they just keep breaking but something has to be done I have 8,000 miles of warranty left like this is a problem. I've owned many cars and many Hondas in fact I've never heard a noise like this that was not a problem it's a problem. It affects the turning of the vehicle because when you turn your think the wheels are something's about to fall off it's just a grinding noise it's not it makes the turning not smooth.

Vehicle makes a grinding noise when turning right or left

Filed Jul 17, 2026 · Steering · FL

Both left and right CV axles make loud clicking, grinding noise when turning. I reported this issue to Honda at around 6,500 miles. At first I was told we are waiting for a solution. Now the dealership's service manager says that there is no safety issue and that Honda has no intention of fixing the problem. The car currently has less than 16,000 miles and the clicking just keeps getting louder. It doesn't feel safe and at the very least it's annoying and unacceptable.

CV Joints/Boot clicking and front passenger suspension squeaking, power steering making rubbing and squealing noises . Baking up-vehicle slams on brakes with nothing behind me. Dealership claims everything is fine and can't recreate issues.

The vehicle experienced multiple serious issues affecting safety and reliability. The 12V battery failed, leaving the vehicle unable to start. In addition, there is a persistent abnormal ratcheting or grinding noise when turning, indicating a possible drivetrain or steering-related defect. An interior component near the rearview mirror also detached while driving, creating a distraction and safety concern. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for repair on February 21, 2026 and has remained out of service for over 30 days with no confirmed repair completion date. There have been communication issues with the dealership, including lack of documentation and inconsistent updates regarding the status of the vehicle. Due to the extended downtime, unresolved defects, and safety concerns, the vehicle is unreliable and unusable for its intended purpose.

Driver Side and Passenger side CV Joints are failing. Severe grinding clicking sound when turning and accelerating. Honda told me this was normal when it was brought in for service

The front axle makes a grinding and click sound whenever you're turning. Dealership replaced the part but then the new one just broke as well. Now Honda is refusing to replace again as they supposedly work on a fix that has been well over a year in the making now. Separate problem with the adaptive cruise control. It randomly slams on the brakes on the highway. Dealership agreed they experienced it but nothing they could do and I would just have to wait for a software update and hope it fixes the problem.

Loud clicking, metal on metal grinding noises at the front (both) wheel axle when making a right or left turn. Noise started around 7500 miles on and off. Now at around 9k miles the metal on metal grinding noise is getting louder and more frequent. Every time when the car is stopped and then accelerate to a turn (right and left) or during a U turn is when the noise is the loudest. Every time the steering wheel makes a full turn the noise is louder. I was told by a local dealership that Honda does not have an explanation. Honda has stopped replacing/fixing the issue unless the parts are showing damaged. It sounds like they are not proactively doing anything about it until someone gets hurt or something goes wrong and that is concerning.

The dealer notified us that both front axles needed replaced however the parts were on back order. The Honda dealer submitted an emergency request for parts from Honda.
