I have a civic sport with 14k and this started happening to me too. Got my tires aligned and balanced but still have the same problem. I’m taking it to the dealership next week as well. Will update
22 Civic LX steering wheel sticking
Just want to document/share an issue I've had recently. 14k miles Civic LX sedan.
The steering wheel sticks at times. Driving straight and in turns. It's a slight stick, but increasingly more noticeable.
While driving straight it happens if I don't touch the wheel for a few seconds. Then I'll need to make a minor correction and it's stuck. I have to put some decent pressure on the wheel to make it unstuck, which causes an over-correction. If i steadily make corrections it doesn't stick.
Same in a turn. If I am making a slow or wide turn, wheel stays in same position for a second, it doesn't just roll out of the turn easily. I have to force it to come out of the turn. Again once it's unstuck it feels fine. Leaving it in one position for more than a second or two initiates the stuck. I'll be taking it to dealer, but wondering if anyone else has a sticking steering system?

an update after taking it to the dealership:I have a civic sport with 14k and this started happening to me too. Got my tires aligned and balanced but still have the same problem. I’m taking it to the dealership next week as well. Will update
I took it took the dealership and they drove it around/tested it out and said they didn't experience any sticking in the steering. When I got it back, I didn't experience that problem anymore either. Weird... So I'm not sure what happened. I've been driving the last two days and don't experience it as much.
Do you guys experience the problem after driving it for a while or at a higher speed? I'm trying to get my car to do it again, but it hasn't yet.
If this is happening to you, be sure to file a complaint. This is the only way we'll be able to start a recall: Report a Safety Problem | NHTSA
