2018 Honda Civic

My 2018 Honda Civic is presenting with issues related to another safety recall, but my Vin doesn't come up for that recall. I got diagnostics done for this issue at a Honda certified dealership, the wanted over $5600 to repair the safety recall issue because my Vin doesn't come up for that specific recall- only one of the safety recalls, which they do not have parts for. I got a second opinion with another mechanic who confirmed that what's going on with my car is a recall safety issue on Honda's part, not my own. My car is not safe to drive due to a rack and pinion safety issue and a fuel pump issue and the safety issues have gotten worse. Others and my own safety is put at risk because the car doesn't have a lot of power to maneuver the vehicle safely as well as the steering locking up. My vehicle shows no lights on the dash.

Went to Honda dealership to diagnose why white smoke was coming through the AC vent whenever I would turn on the AC. Honda said that my AC condenser went bad, which is covered under the extended warranty due to others having the same issue but that my AC Evaporator core was stain and also needs to be replaced. I was quoted $2322.16 to have the Evaporator replaced and it needed to be replaced before they could continue with replaced the condenser and recharged the system for free. Please help as it seems the issue has to do with the new Freon Honda is using.

The steering does not allow for smaller adjustments making it difficult to keep the vehicle continuing in a straight line in higher speeds (highways, freeways). When attempting to pull the wheel, it will not move until more force is used, causing the wheel to jerk and making the vehicle difficult to control. After checking with the Norm Reeves Honda Center, they suggested it was an issue with the power steering rack, however many others report they've had a similar issue but discovered it was the gearbox at fault. This problem has been occurring after around 40,000 miles but the condition worsened over time.

I have noticed recently that almost every time when I start the car, it stalls for a second then turns on. There were many times that the car will jerk when I accelerate after being stopped at a red light. The car seems to not have as much power as before. I feel as though I have to step on the gas more to keep up speed especially on the freeway. Fortunately, no accidents have occurred. I have not had the vehicle inspected because when I called my local Honda dealership, they said they did not have the parts to replace it. There are no warning messages or lamps. I cannot pinpoint the exact date I have noticed these occurrences but most likely for a few months now since January 2024.
