After driving at highway speeds for some time >10minutes, the steering wheel exhibits a "stickiness" when moving it out of straight ahead. With some extra pressure, the steering wheel then moves, jumping into a turned position, then moving smoothly through its motion. This effect continues for the entirety of the drive. This has been occurring since last fall, but seems to be getting worse over time.

The steering on the vehicle exhibits unusual resistance when on center above 40mph - sort of a 'sticking' feeling. To properly correct the vehicles lane position at Hwy speeds, driver needs both hands. To move the steering in these situations requires significantly more torque than normal, and when you have applied enough torque, the steering will suddenly move, making it easy to overcorrect.

The rear windshield on my 2023 Honda Civic suddenly shattered so heavily that I could not see through it. Absolutely nothing hit it to cause the shatter. Soon after, the whole windshield broke and glass went all over the backseat of my car. This is a known issue with Honda. Corporate said it should be covered as I still have the 3yr/36k miles warranty in effect. The dealer says it's not covered. I am now fighting this with corporate. Dealer says that regardless, it will take 2-3 WEEKS for them to get a new windshield, as they are so back ordere…

The engine in my Honda Civic Si failed prematurely at 28,677 miles while the vehicle was still within Honda’s 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. Honda and the dealership denied warranty coverage based on a recorded engine overspeed event of 6,900 RPM that occurred earlier at 19,259 miles. The engine’s rev limiter is 6,600 RPM, meaning the recorded event exceeded the limiter by only 300 RPM. After this recorded event, the vehicle continued to operate normally for approximately 9,400 additional miles with no warning lights, drivability issu…

When traveling straight down the road, most noticeably at interstate speeds, the car will start to drift ever so slightly in one direction. You start adding steering angle to go straight and can feel the electric steering weight ramp up like it should. Then all of a sudden it gets light and corrects back to center, however now you are traveling in the direction the steering is pointing. The feeling is like driving on an extremely windy day where the driver has to fight the steering to keep the car going straight. However this happens at random …

I was commuting to work when my engine experienced catastrophic failure and was stuck on the interstate. Prior to this, the engine was making audible "ticking" sounds which are indicative of rod bearing failure. This happens from poorly lubricated parts and is a direct result of Honda of America requiring 0w-20 oil in its direct injected earth dreams motors. These earth dream engines have had a proven reputation for having oil dilution problems that cause catastrophic engine failure since 2016. Other subsidiaries of Honda around the world recom…
