Consumer Description

There is an issue with the power steering system. When I turn the steering wheel from a stop I experience resisting or binding feel in the steering wheel. this occurs whether the wheel is making a left or right turn. I also notice this if I am changing lanes in driving. This issue is most noticed after the engine is warm from travel. The steering feels 'Sticky" and the safety of the vehicle at freeway speeds is concerning. MY Honda dealer has investigated this issue on o9/05/2025 and indicated the steering rack needs to be replaced. This was an issue Honda was aware of back in 2018, however my vehicle was not apart of the recall. I purchased this vehicle in august of 2018 at Honda of Covington. this vehicle currently has 59,524 miles and has been regularly serviced at my Linda dealer. some financial remediation would be appreciated.
