Steering · reported Oct 14, 2026
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…

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…
Service Brakes · reported Sep 29, 2026
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…
