Anybody having issues with the steering wheel on their new 2018 Honda Accord?
Whenever I go past 50 mph the steering wheel feels as if it's sticking. Almost as if their were some gum or a weak magnet holding it in place. You have to do a very small jerk to get it moving again but once you let it go it get stuck again. It's very annoying and something I wouldn't expect to have on a car of this new.
Added (1). I'm trying to contact the sales rep at some honda dealerships right now but nobody is answering. They might be on a very early and long lunch break. Hmm…
Go back to the dealer
This sounds like a serious issue that could affect your ability to drive the car safely at normal speeds. You MUST schedule an inspection at the Service (NOT Sales) department of your Honda dealer, to have them look at the problem under warranty. Be persistent and don't be denied by "corporate policy" or negative response to your phone calls; go up the chain of command to management or the Honda area/regional representative until you achieve satisfaction.

hmm is right. You should be contacting the service department at the ONE dealership you bought it from
on a side note, the new accords are having a lot of problems right out of the factory including the steering
The electric power steering is what is doing it. Does the car have any lane guidance features that are turned on that you just don't like the feel of? If not, find out if that it is acting the way Honda designed it to.
Do not waste your time. Go to the dealer. Tell the manager to drive it when they say it is "normal".
CHECK FOR RECALLS, As soon as possible! There have been some reported recently.
Hi so they have fitted the progressive steering to the honda as well. It's not what you think it is as the steering wheel is not connected directly to the steering rack. They use servomechanisms now so it is electrical.
- Will yamaha sort out their issues in 2019 season? I'm sure hoping so, not looking to great atm but if they can it could make the most interesting year in gp. Great to see vinales and vales up fighting for podiums with the ducatis and hondas again, probably with the suzukis alot more next year also.
- What is this sound coming from under the truck brand new 2018 honda ridgeline after I did the wheel alignment? When I back up It has that quick initial metal stretching sound and I only noticed it after the alignment was done. What is it and how should I fix this?
- I have a 2014 honda shadow phantom been having issues with my tail light Brake light works but the steady back light isn't working only shines when i brake electric problems maybe? Guessing it isn't connected but can't take the bolts off from the back to get to the electrical to the tail light and not coming off. Some advice on how to get it properly working would be most appreciated
- I have a 1994 honda shadow vlx 600. I've been having charging issues? Could someone have put the positive and negative wires that connect to the battery on the wrong sides? All the batteries online look the same as this one and the cover on the bike only lets you slide it in one way (where the pos is on the right and the neg is on the left).
