 Description of the problemThe electronic power steering (eps) is progressively failing just like many other owners have reported previously. I first noticed this while driving on the highway 65 to 75 miles per hour but it continues to get worse regardless of speed. The steering wants to turn left on its own and it is sluggish whenever i make a turn either direction. In fact i can even feel the sluggish steering while the car is parked. I've been commuting to work in my old gmc truck while this problem is being looked at by a local garage. This is clearly a safety hazzard and considering how many people have encountered failures with the eps over multiple model years i don't understand why honda hasn't recalled it. My local garage said it requires the steering rack replaced which is an expensive part and will require significant labor cost as well. I've been a loyal honda customer since 1992 because of the historical quality of their vehicles so it's disappointing they don't want to recall this. I guess it's time to look at other brands of vehicles for my next purchase.
