NHTSA Complaint #11642147 — 2023 HONDA CR-V

My vehicle had the steering rack replaced in April 2024 after several visits to the Honda service center for "sticky steering". The vehicle showed improvement and was driven an additional 5-6k miles but then started having the same issue as before, the steering felt tight and got tighter the longer it was driven. Returned vehicle to Honda service center where they performed recall 23V-704 / YFW in Dec 2024. Again, there was an improvement but after driving another 5-6k, steering started getting tight again, the longer it is driven the tighter it gets. Returned vehicle to Honda Service center in February 2025 and was advised the could not find anything wrong and could not replicate the issue after driving 10 miles. There is definitely something "wrong" with the steering but Honda refuses to acknowledge this is still an issue for my specific CRV.
