Sticky steering possibly caused by the issues stated in the recent recalls for Honda vehicles of my make and model. However looking up my VIN does not show me the active recall for my vehicle

While driving, the vehicle consistently exhibits a âwanderingâ or drifting sensation, especially at highway speeds. The steering wheel does not sit centered when driving straight, and small corrections are constantly required to keep the vehicle in its lane. This behavior has been present despite the tires being properly inflated and the vehicle having relatively low mileage. The wandering sensation makes the vehicle feel unstable and reduces driver confidence, particularly during longer trips or when sharing the road with other vehicles. The offâcenter steering wheel suggests a possible issue with the steering system, steering angle sensor, alignment from the factory, or an…

Happened multiple times in multiple locations during city driving accelerating from a stop or low speed to a higher speed, especially when accelerating from a stop through an intersection at a stoplight. Vehicle surges and âwonât goâ. Feels like a giant rubber band in the drive train stretching and recoiling. Eventually after about a half dozen âsurgesâ the vehicle attains enough speed and the problem goes away. Only happens when accelerating from a stop or low speed to a higher speed.

I was driving with the cruise set at 74mph as a lead car on a highway, overcast day. No vehicles, animals, trees or plastic bags had flown in front of me when the car slammed on the brakes causing the car following me to also slam and switch lanes to avoid rear ending me! Today is the third time I have taken this car back to dealership to look into. The previous two times they told me to shut off the adaptive cruise control which is not a fix! That is a feature I use because most of my driving is highway. Dealership of purchase is also dealership that I have taken care to previously. This event today actually scared me, thank goodness the driver behind me was paying attention.

Honda's braking is so sharp and late against standing objects (red light vehicle). Sometimes, even accelerates in visibility area and get scary, if it really going to brake? brakes very sharply, when the car in front of you turns and even out of your way already. I'm just filing this for you to help push the manufacturer to fix with Software upgrade, as I see Hyundai and Toyota's have very smooth and more accurate systems.
