2023 Acura Integra

FOR SOME TIME NOW, WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (35+ MPH) AND TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THERE WILL BE RESISTANCE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE MICRO-ADJUSTMENTS TO THE STEERING WHEEL AS YOU WOULD WHILE TRAVELING STRAIGHT (TO KEEP THE CAR AS STARIGHT AS POSSIBLE. A BIT MORE EFFORT IS REQUIRED TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AND ONCE SUCCESSFUL IN DOING SO, THE INPUT WINDS UP BEING TOO MUCH AND YOU HAVE TO TURN THE WHEEL NOW IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TO CORRECT THE OVER-CORRECTION. ULTIMATELY, YOU WIND UP BOUNCING FROM LANE LINE TO LANE LINE ON FAIRLY STRAIGHT ROADWAYS. THIS IS INDEPENDENT OF ANY OTHER FACTORS INCLUDING LKAS, LANE DEPARTURE MITIGATION AS WELL AS THE STERRING 'DRIVE MODE' (COMFORT, NORMAL, SPORT). I CAN REPLICATE THE ISSUE WITH COMBINIATIONS OF ALL OF THESE SETTINGS ACTIVE/INACTIVE. THIS ISSUE ALSO SEEMS TO APPEAR ABOUT A HALF AN HOUR INTO ANY COMMUTE.

I am having a sticky steering wheel issue and is available for inspection upon request. While driving I have lost temporary control overcorrecting the sticky steering while pulling into traffic and keeping the vehicle in the lane in heavy traffic. It creates an not predictable driving experience and feel extremely unsafe. I notice the steering wheel favors pulling left like its alignment is constantly off to the left. I have taken it to the dealer when it first started happening and we could not repo it then. It is happening more frequently and I will be scheduling a follow up appointment. My vehicle has no been inspected by the manufacturer, police or other insurance representative. There are no associated warning lights or messages. I noticed at first the wheel was pulling left before the sticky wheel problem occurred.

I have been experiencing situations while driving where the steering wheel sticks. It is more prevalent at highway speeds but does happen while driving at lower normal street speeds. You constantly have to correct the steering wheel to keep the car moving in a straight line. I took the car to the dealership, they drove the car and advised it was operating as designed. I cant believe this car was designed to steer and track like it does! You are constantly correct the steering and feel the wheel stick. Any help would be appreciated.

My car for the last week has been getting the infamous "sticky" steering when doing highway speeds. It does lead to overcorrection which could be me and other motorist in danger or in harms way. It almost keyword here "almost" got me into a wreck because when trying to pass into another lane, my steering wheel felt stuck and I had to apply some extra force to get into my lane. Luckily, no one was there on the other lane but the overcorrection felt a knee jerk into the lane. No waring lights appear on the dash since the sensor won't pick it up. I have taken my car to the dealership to see if it can be fixed, so far 3 days with no updates and will have to play the "telephone" game to get any updates.

The component or system affected is the car's steering. It 'sticks' when driving 35-55 mph in a continuous left or right hand curve. It sticks at slower speeds as well, just not as pronounced. The steering would stay in a 'stuck' position if the driver doesn't make an effort to straighten the steering position. It's truly a safety risk. I'm not driving it any longer on highways because it is getting worse as time and miles pass. The dealer (Acura of North Austin, TX) refuses to spend anytime reproducing this issue, as I took it there for this issue and was basically told there is no problem with the steering after it sat at their dealership for a week and driven a total of 4 (four) miles. This is a very serious safety concern which Acura/Honda needs to address. The Civics of the same year model ARE under recall, but for some reason, the Acura version of the Civic is not. These cars share the SAME COMPONENTS, but the Integra has not been added to the recall. Makes no sense.

I noticed that the steering on my vehicle has become "sticky". The steering wheel seems to stay stuck in position while driving. It takes extra effort to move it from the stuck position. It does not take a lot of force to move it from the stuck position, but it is definitely noticable. This is certainly annoying, and I feel this could be a safety issue

Experiencing 'sticky steering' at highway speeds. Steering wheel becomes somewhat stuck and requires more force than should be necessary to make a small adjustment when traveling within a lane. The problem has gotten worse over time as it has become much more noticeable after crossing 15,000 miles. Concerned about future degradation and highway safety.
