Consumer Description

When I am driving going above 40 miles per hour, the steering wheel has a slight resistance when making minor corrections. When trying to correct direction in a lane to stay straight, the steering wheel sticks, or catches, and when you get it to move it makes a jerking motion. This is a safety concern, because I am worried that this will ultimately result in an accident as the issue gets worse. My local Honda dealer, as well as a reputable local mechanic have reproduced the issue. The issue first appeared within the last year to two years.
