2022 Honda Cr-v

Car went into "limp mode" while we were driving on the turnpike on a hill at 70 MPH. Speed dropped to 30 MPH in an area with a construction zone so there was little room to pull to the side of the road safely. We were lucky to be in the right lane so made it to the side next to the construction barrels.

The steering has become "sticky", the service shop says the steering gear box is bad and must be replaced. There were no warnings. It just suddenly seemed like when I tried to turn left the car steering was fighting me and trying to jerk back to straight. It was intermittent at first, then became regular with turning left, and recently began doing it when turning right --even slight turns. We had to have the vehicle serviced for regular maintenance and asked the service dealer to look into it. They told us we must replace this or lose all steering at sometime in the near future. There is a recall on 2023-2025 Honda CR-V for the same issue, but not my vehicle.

My wife was unloading bags of groceries from the back of the vehicle. I had opened the liftgate once I pulled into the garage. One of the bags she grabbed was double bagged but one came off and went under the rear bumper. I got to the back of the car where she was at and I asked her what was the bag under the car, assuming it still had items in it. She explained it had came off the bag in her hand and she reached down to grab it. When she got it I heard the noise from the liftgate that a closure was activated via her getting the bag from under the car. It was coming down fairly quick. I told her loudly to move back, the liftgate was closing. When she did she lost her balance. She rotated around and fell in the driveway, skinning her knees and her hands and ended up on her back wondering what happened. Thankfully she did not hit her head. She is [XXX] and coordination is not a strong suit for either of us. I am [XXX]. A similar event happened to me when I had to reach something deeper into the back of the car and my foot went too far underneath the rear, activating the liftgate closure. I was able to move back without issue... INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Steering wheel would stick when going around curves. It felt like I was losing control of the vehicle. A clicking sound could be heard when this happened. Thankfully, when the top mechanic at my Honda dealership test drove the vehicle, he heard the sound and felt the lack of control of the 2022 CRV. As a result, he found there was a failure in the steering gear box. This happened with about 27,000 miles on the vehicle. My vehicle was not part of the recall and was out of warranty because of its age, but the dealer covered the cost for the repair for which I am very thankful. He probably saved my life and a few others! All of the 2022 Honda CRV should be part of the recall.

My 2022 Honda CR-V experiences the "sticky steering" defect that has been widely reported and is currently under NHTSA investigation (EA23003). While driving at highway speeds, the steering wheel intermittently locks, requiring increased effort to move the wheel. When the steering finally releases, it often results in overcorrection, creating a dangerous safety hazard. I previously assumed that the issue was lane keeping assist but after my last honda service i started getting noise when turning the wheel. It's the exact same noise that happens in the honda civic steering pinion where the wormgear rubs against the plastic with insufficient grease as shown in this video [XXX] My safety is not put at risk because i have learned to expect the steering locking and compensate for it but it will only get worse over time. The problem was confirmed by the dealer but their solution is to replace the rack and pinion but the reports online say that the issue comes back because the part itself has the defect from the factory, the same as with the other 1.7m recalled honda vehicles with the same problem. There was no warning message and there still isn't any message on the vehicle saying that the rack has failed, it just locks intermittently and makes the clicking noise because of the insufficient grease. As i previously mentioned, the locking has been happening for quite some time but only after I was told that the noise was coming from the "failed" rack i found the sticky steering issues which then got me to disable all steering assist and sure enough the steering still sticks. I tried uploading videos but it won't allow me to. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2022 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 50-60 MPH, the check engine warning light flashed and several unknown warning lights illuminated, and the vehicle went into LIMP Mode, lost motive power, and failed to properly accelerate. The contact restarted the vehicle; however, the vehicle remained in LIMP Mode. The contact exited the interstate, left the vehicle in a parking lot, and had the vehicle towed to a dealer the following day. The failure was a recurring failure. The contact stated the vehicle had been inspected by two independent mechanics and two Honda dealers and was currently located at a third Honda dealer awaiting a diagnostic test. The first independent mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The first dealer diagnosed the vehicle with an inoperable spark plug and ignition coil in cylinder #1. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted. The second independent mechanic replaced all the spark plugs and ignition coils; however, the failure persisted. The second dealer diagnosed the vehicle with head gasket failure and determined that the timing belt needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was taken to a third Honda dealer but it was not yet diagnosed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened; however, the contact stated that no response had been received. The failure mileage was 95,000.

The check engine light came on right after my warranty expired two winters ago but then went off. Since then I randomly comes on and goes off. I decided to buy a diagnostic kit and see that it is faulting on the evac system with 6 error codes. I know this is a known issue with my make and model but Honda has yet to issue a recall.

When turning left the steering wheel catches and sticks. It is also causing a stationary chassis shift at full lock.

Steering rack failure. Steering wheel "sticks" when straightening out of a curve. This causes a need to force the steering wheel more which then causes an over-correction, possibly into another lane. Very unsafe. Steering rack failure has been confirmed by dealer. It is a known problem by Honda, but yet has never been recalled for 2022 crv's. This problem could get someone killed, a child killed. Honda should be ashamed, especially charging owners $4,000 to fix a problem that is theirs. This is criminal.

My 2022 Honda CR-V is having the same issue has the 2023-2025 Honda CR-V's. The steering is sticky. The 2023-2025 were issued a recall but the 2022 is not covered. The is a safety hazard for me and family and puts others in danger as well. From researching, many 2022 owners are having the same issues but no recall has been granted. There are no warning lights on and have never came on to indicate a problem. I hope that you will take into consideration the 2022 Honda CR-V in a national recall. Honda should be made to pay for this problem. If this recall is not issued this could be detrimental to others on the highway. Please consider this complaint and issue a recall before this creates deaths. Thank you!

There is clicking sound while I turn steering wheel, and the steering is not smooth, it is stuck sometimes in place and needs more force to move it. The sound is at low speeds or high speeds on the highways. It is random.

Steering wheel was sticking. Adjustments to stay in a straight line were difficult and imprecise. An existing recall on this exact issue did not include my vehicle. Although, Honda covered 80% of the steering repair, I had to pay $888 to have the steering repair and 4 wheel alignment done. I assert that the recall should include my vehicle and be reimbursed for the money I paid.

The steering feels sticky or drifts. Have turned off LKAS. The steering sometime bumps or sticks when turning and sometimes feels harder to turn.

I bought this vehicle CPO at a Honda dealer. A pronouced steering issue arose with long banked curves as I drove home that was not evident with straight driving during my test drive. The dealer at first replaced the stabilizer bars but the issue of catching and noise persisted. Upon talking to my son, I learned of the recall associated with the vary same symptoms with Hondas however my year was not included in the recall. The dealership gave me a loaner while it took over 3 weeks to get and install the replacement steering rack. The vehicle no longer has any mechanical issues. I believe the recall years on this issue should be expanded to include 2022 CRVs.

I believe my 2022 CRV has the same issue as the 23 to 25 recall for the steering gearbox issue. My car steering wheel gets stuck and can be hard to turn and I’m worried about the safety for me and my family in my car. Please investigate this issue and I believe it should be extended to 2022 year model for recall. I see online other people with 2022 also face this issue. PLEASE HELP IM CONCERNED. Can Honda answer if the same parts and manufacturing process was used on 2022? I have noticed this more in the last year I have owned this vehicle.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to express my concern regarding the windshield quality on my Honda CR-V. I recently purchased this vehicle and have already experienced three separate chips in the windshield caused by small rocks during normal driving conditions. I have owned several vehicles over the years including Honda SUV, and have encountered similar road conditions without experiencing this level of damage. The frequency with which the windshield has chipped has led me to question the durability and quality of the glass used in my Honda CR-V. While I understand that windshields can be damaged by road debris, it is concerning that a vehicle has sustained multiple chips in such a short period of time. This has resulted in inconvenience, concern about the windshield's long-term integrity, and the potential for costly repairs or replacement. I am requesting that Honda review this matter and advise whether there are any known issues regarding windshield durability for my vehicle. I would also appreciate any assistance or goodwill consideration Honda may be able to provide. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

When going a higher speed on freeway, steering “sticks” when on curves. This problem was recalled for 2023-2025 Honda CRV’s, but the same problem is happening with 2022’s.

I have experienced all of the following: "Sticky" Steering: A momentary feeling that the steering wheel catches or sticks when trying to turn it, often requiring extra force to break it loose, Notchy or Jerky Feel: When breaking through the sticky point, the car may jerk slightly, Abnormal Noises: You may hear clicking, grinding, or rubbing noises coming from the front of the vehicle when turning and Increased Effort: It becomes noticeably harder or stiffer to turn the steering wheel. There are no issues when driving straight but when I turn the wheel, into a curve or exiting or entering a ramp for example the wheel can stick and I have to apply additional force to complete the turn. I have also experienced a notch or jerky when completing wider turns, the steering seems to stick in muliple places while the turn is being made. There is also a clicking or popping sound that occurs at each sticking point. There have been no warning lights and I have tried turning on and off all the various lane assist features thinking that the issue was with the technology. Family members have verified these issues but I just found out about this issue after searching on the internet and checking to see that my vehicle was not included even though many of the searches said 2022 was included. If I can get my dealership to look at this issue or another professional I will make an additional complaint.

The steering system made clicking noises and while turning would lock up. I took this to Honda, and they replaced the steering rack. This was extremely unsafe, especially at higher speeds. I did not feel safe driving this vehicle with the steering system failing. This VIN was not included in a Honda recall for the steering system and the steering system failed. The cost of repair was $3400.00. Honda agreed to pay approximately $1100.00.

The rack and pinion steering system failed. This was a definite safety issue, with vehicle being unsafe to drive. There were no warning messages but the steering itself was sticking and binding at travel speeds. This vehicle had 40525 miles at the time of repair and just fallen out of warranty.
