My 2022 Honda Civic Sport is affected by NHTSA Safety Recall 24V-744 (Honda Campaign SJS) for the steering gear. On SXXX, an authorized dealership (Honda City Chicago) officially diagnosed my vehicle with an "INTERNAL FAILURE CAUSING A KNOCKING TYPE OF SOUND" within the steering rack assembly, indicating it requires a complete replacement estimated at $4,680.27. Despite having an open recall for this exact steering gear defect, Honda Corporate (Case Manager [XXX], Case #XXX) formally denied covering the repair, falsely claiming that the problem is not covered and that the vehicle is out of warranty. The vehicle experiences a permanent knocking noise when turning the steering wheel from a…

Sticky steering has returned after the safety recall repair. The steering intermittently sticks and requires extra effort to turn, mostly at highway speeds after driving for a while. No warning lights or messages come on. This is the same defect covered by safety recall 24V744 (Honda bulletin 24-119), and the recall repair (worm gear spring kit and grease) was performed at a Honda dealer in July 2025. The symptom has since come back. The vehicle was taken back to the same Honda dealer. The technician test drove it and could not duplicate the condition, found no codes, and found the wiring to the EPS motor OK. The dealer still recommended replacing the complete EPS steering gearbox under…

2 Issues. 1) Only a few weeks after purchase there were defective stabilizer link bushings. They removed them and gave the car back to me while they waited for the part to come in. This part did not come in for several months maybe even a year so I was driving with defective suspension that entire time. The part came in and the vehicle was fixed. That was the first safety issue. 2) A brake light came on stating performance issues and I needed to take it to the dealer. I found out there is a bulletin about this problem and Honda is investigating. This problem effects the brakes so that's a very serious safety issue. The vehicle isn't even 4 years old and the problem started about 3 months…

The mechanical backup keys on my "key fobs" do not work. When the key fob battery failed on 8/12/26 due to a dead key fob 2032 battery or a loose connection in the fob, I was locked out of my car with no ability to unlock the car. This happened in a garage, however it could happen again on the road or a highway and I would be left stranded with no way to get into my vehicle. When I was able to get the fob working again with new battery, I went to the dealer -San Francisco Honda -and two service representatives confirmed that the vehicle's manual mechanical emergency override fails to unlock the driver's door despite giving an internal "click." They refuse to fix it because the car is out of…

My 2022 Honda Civic has developed an intermittent sticky steering condition. The steering wheel becomes difficult to turn around the center position and requires additional force before it moves normally again. This occurs during normal driving and makes it difficult to maintain smooth and predictable control of the vehicle. I am concerned that this could increase the risk of losing control, especially if an emergency steering correction is needed. In addition, I hear a knocking/tapping noise coming from the front of the vehicle whenever I turn the steering wheel at low speeds. The vehicle has never been involved in any accident, collision, or steering-related damage. There are no warning…
