Active recall 24V-744. Call dealer and they state Honda has no parts and no timeline on availability. Same issue existed on another 2024 new Honda before safety recall and had to open NCDS case as they wanted me to wait for parts 4 months on that car. Now same problem and they have no parts to correct - this is inexcusable.

The power steering is intermittently heavy ("sticky"). It's hard to stay in your lane, especially at higher speeds on the highway. On and off, the steering briefly feels like "manual steering" (no power), then feels normal. The driver (me) has to be constantly vigilant and use extra effort to keep the car under control. It's worse a higher speeds and is not as bad at lower speeds. Safety is at risk when it's hard to control the direction of the car! The Honda dealer has test driven twice and has not been able to reproduce the problem. The brief on & off heavy steering is worse when the car has been driven for a while - 45 minutes to an hour. The dealer never tested that long. No warning lights or special dash lights showing.
The steering is real jerky and hard to drive. The dealer said on 11/13 that it was unsafe to drive. Part is on back order. Now they say it might be April.
I noticed that at approximately 45mph that my steering wheel started stick and then unstick resulting in the steering wheel jerking. Some occurrences are worse than others and it seems to be more noticeable while driving at highway speeds (45mph - 65mph). I researched this and found multiple forums with 2022 - 2024 Honda owners experiencing the same problem. I also noticed an open NHTSA investigation (Investigation: EA23003).
The contact owns a 2024 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, the steering wheel seized. The contact depressed the brake pedal because the steering wheel failed to unlock to return to normal functionality. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle and the steering failure message was displayed on the instrument panel. The steering wheel remained inoperable. The vehicle was not taken to an independent mechanic or dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The approximate failure mileage was 14,000.

Steering feels sticky when driving on the highway. If the lane assist is on, it makes it worse so I don't use it.
The steering wheel sticks and becomes stiff intermittently at various speeds. It seems to happen significantly less in cold temperatures (under 35°f). When performing a turn or slight correction, more bodily force is required to make the move which has resulted in exaggerated moves/corrections. This issue was presented to the dealership and their technician allegedly drove my vehicle and another of the same year/model and was unable to recreate the issue.
January 2024 Steering wheel suddenly became very hard to control while driving on interstate highway. Could not turn the wheel at all. Finally, I was able to steer onto the shoulder of the highway AFTER pressing the lane assist control button. February 29, 2024 Warning light on dashboard appeared- “Road Departure Mitigation System Problem. See Your Dealer” There is also a clicking/ creaking noise when turning the steering wheel. Seems to be worse when it is cold outside.
At speeds above 40mph, the steering feels "sticky" or "notchy" when making small corrections to stay in the center of the lane. My local dealer confirmed the problem and ordered replacement parts. That was two months ago.
Sticky steering wheel sound appear when park in and park out or make a right or left turn. Feeling heavier than normal.
The steering is very hard and needs lot of force to rotate.
Steering feels stiff. A times feels sticky.
Power steering seems to "catch and stick" while driving then all of a sudden, the car veers a bit to one side. Then as you attempt to make a minor correction to drive straight ahead, it seems to over correct. If you are stopped with the engine running and just apply very light pressure on the steering wheel either to the right or left, the steering wheel will skip a notch or two in the direction you are holding the wheel yet the tires do not turn at all. Very disconcerting that you are going to wind up in the adjacent lane. Per several Honda owners forums, this seems to be an issue on 2024 CR-Vs.
My car still in Honda Collision Since January Waiting for Electronic Power steering Rack which they keep telling me is in backorder . Start to be so frustrating.
Steering wheel on 2024 CRV hybrid was getting sticky and I noticed it while I was driving on the highway took it to dealer and dealer did say that the truck is unsafe to be driven steering rack needs to be replaced. There is no official recall, but part can take months to come in.
I have had my 2024 CRV EX-L in a couple different dealerships to complain about the steering becoming very sticky after you drive for awhile. When this issue starts up, it makes it very difficult to make minor adjustments to stay in your own lane!! Some dealers say they haven't heard any other complaints, but I find that not to be true when it's all over social media and there are articles all over the internet as well about this same issue. I also have an Attorney looking into this as well at this point. This issue is very annoying and can become a safety concern if you are not always aware and paying attention when it starts to happen. This is definitely not the Honda quality that I have been used to in the past. I would like this addressed ASAP, this CRV only has 6,200 miles on it. Thank you.
Sticky steering very dangerous at times
At about 6,000 miles I noticed that at higher speed over 40 mph, the steering felt as if it were 'sticky'. Steering felt like it would click and it is hard to keep wheel straight. It is progressively getting worse and makes it so I cannot drive straight without overcorrecting on either side constantly.
