I have a 2023 Sport Hatch at 4,000 miles no problems. I found the sticker with the part number on the steering rack. It is not one of the ones mentioned in the recall, so I think I'm OK. No sticky steering, yet !
Got mine replaced on my 23’ Civic Sport. They replaced the steering rack and we are good so far. Was the sticking an issue? Yes, because it noticeable and it can be very annoying. For a less experienced driver it can lead to an accident if not too careful or if you pull on it with more strength than needed.
FCP lifetime warranty + TRW = excellent choice
So the ZF steering rack finally got through customs and arrived safe and sound - thanks UPS. The rack is originally from a VR6 Passat so in theory should be up to the task. Got it installed and hooked up and so far no leaks. Immediately I noticed the pump is a lot quieter connected to this rack than it was when connected to the TRW rack which makes me think the TRW rack couldn't handle the pressure coming from the pump? Or maybe there was just something wrong with it internally. So far no leaks from the ZF rack so fingers crossed it'll hold up well when I get it back on the ground and go for a test drive.
I just had mine replaced on my 2019 SE R-Line this week. The noise was gone but the alignment was off!
After the steering recall on my 2023 Civic Type R, I immediately noticed a slight clicking sensation and faint noise when turning the wheel left or right and letting it return to center. The clicking doesn’t happen throughout the full stroke, just during the return-to-center process. The dealership confirmed the noise and movement. After the recall procedure (syringe grease method for the EPS gearbox), the clicking noise was still present. They determined that replacing the entire steering rack is now necessary to resolve the issue.
We just went through this. 3 dealerships and no joke atleast 10 visits. 2 dealerships said the car was fine and safe to drive. We had the recalls done, but the issue was still present. At the 3rd dealership they diagnosed it immediately and said the car needed a new steering rack. They overnighted the part and the car was fixed today. It’s running perfectly now. What pisses me off is, the ran the part under the Honda Care Warranty I made my kid purchase. Yes, I know, waste of money. It’s his first real car and being it was a used car I was overly cautious at the time of purchase. The car is a 2022 civic touring. Wouldn’t the steering rack be covered under warranty as that part has a known fault. What would have happened if I did not make him spend the extra money for the Honda Care. They stated something was broken within the steering rack as the wheel made a noise when you turned it. The car also would swerve while driving at speeds over 35. The lane assist would jerk the car all over and the steering had dead zones which would cause the jerking while trying to stay in lane. I know I should be happy the damn car is fixed and I don’t need to hear my kid say he’s gonna die driving it everyday as it swerves on the road. I do think the cost should be on Honda and not my Honda Care warranty.
First time they replaced the steering rack and pinion. Noise came back after a couple of days.
Got mines done at 8k miles now it's doing it again at 17k miles poorly built Honda
Steering rack leaking with steering fluid at around 150,000km also but did not repair it as i just top it up about once a month.
