Steering

Over the past month or so, I've noticed the steering started to feel "off," a bit sticky in the sense that it was a little jerky to maneuver even within the same lane or when making a slight turn of the wheel, like coming off a highway ramp. The car was taken to be checked and it was found to have an issue with the rack & pinion…

Over the past month or so, I've noticed the steering started to feel "off," a bit sticky in the sense that it was a little jerky to maneuver even within the same lane or when making a slight turn of the wheel, like coming off a highway ramp. The car was taken to be checked and it was found to have an issue with the rack & pinion. A warranty inspector confirmed it qualifies for the rack & pinion replacement, so as of today (January 22, 2024), my car is in the dealership waiting for the part, which is on critical back order with an unknown ETA.

Received notification through my Honda link app that there is recall on my 2019" Honda civic hatchback. Honda Fuel pump motor recall expansion stop sale " Information provided states the danger of this recall.. risk of crash or injury. I contacted my local Honda dealership on 1/10/2024. I actually purchased this vehicle new there in 2019. I was told no Solution has been decided yet. I mentioned the seriousness of the information provided about the recall. All she could say is that she would make a notation that I called & I would receive updated information about this recall when it becomes available. Scary!!

In April 2021, I hit went over a large pothole that caused me to get an immediate flat tire on my driver's left front tire (the TPMS system alerted me of low tire pressure). I had the tire replaced. Had no issues until 9/2021 when my TPMS system alerted me that my tire pressure was low. Front left tire was at 26, had problem diagnosed at same tire repair place and they sealed my rim on driver's front left tire. Did not have any more issues until 2022 (unsure of date) but frequently my TPMS system light comes on indicating low tire pressure. I always check tire pressure with gauge at home and my tires are never lower than 29 when I check (front two are supposed to be at 32 and back two are supposed to be at 33). I also live in a warm climate year round. In 2023, my TPMS system alerts me of low tire pressure approximately every 2-3 months when my tires in fact do not have low tire pressure. In the month of December, every time I turn my car on, my TPMS system alerts me of low tire pressure, but they are all normal. I always recalibrate the TPMS system when I get that system alert, but it does not seem to help. My car currently has 30,000 miles and no accidents. I am concerned for the safety of this vehicle in regards to when I may actually have low tire pressure, but because of these frequent and unreliable TPMS alerts I get, I may not recognize if it the tire were actually low while driving. I get my car inspected routinely every 6-8 months when I got my oil changed by the Honda dealership and they have not reported any issues.

On multiple occasions, at least 10, my automatic braking detector system has engaged when no other cars were in front of me or around me on the road. It has happened while driving in the city at slow speeds, on the highway at 70-80mph, and most recently while going up ramp to merge onto interstate. The automatic brakes will engage causing my car to slightly brake and I then have to accelerate, especially while on the interstate, to keep the car moving or else it could just stop in the middle of the road with a potential to cause a deadly accident. My cruise control no longer works either. I wonder if these issues are synonymous? My safety and the safety of others is definitely at risk with my car randomly braking with no cars in front of me or next to me. The vehicle routinely gets inspected at my Honda dealership every 6-8 months when I get my oil changed and they have not reported any issues. There have been no warnings on the car prior to these incidents happening. This car has no accidents and currently has 30,000 miles. I would estimate the car had about 28,000 miles when the last incident happened while going up the interstate ramp. The braking system malfunction started at the beginning of 2023 from my knowledge.
