Description of the problem | I bought a 2017 honda civic back in dec of 2016 and currently, have about 15,00 miles on my car. The problem started a few months ago when i noticed that the steering wheel would start being sticky, stiff and jerky. The steering wheel would pull to the right and have this subtle movements, it would cause resistance. This was not frequent but the problem would show up occasionally. I have reported the issue to 3 different honda dealerships with no solution. I have had 2 alignments on my car but that did not resolve the problem either. The stick/jerk pull would start at about 30/40 miles into my drive and turning left or right would cause me to pull the steering wheel in the opposite direction. Reading civic forms, many are saying civic has the eps rack so that's causing this jerky pull. |
