2017 Honda Civic — Known Issues & Recalls

Your steering wheel jerks or pulls suddenly to the left or right while driving on highways, especially after 30 minutes to an hour of driving. When you try to make small corrections to stay straight, the steering grabs and pulls hard in one direction, which has nearly caused accidents in heavy traffic. No warning lights appear, but this unpredictable behavior makes the car difficult to control safely.

Your steering wheel feels sticky and requires extra force to turn from a stopped position, causing jerky and unpredictable steering movements. This makes it difficult to stay in your lane since small adjustments aren't possible, and the steering seems to skip or catch unexpectedly. The owner mentions that newer Honda Civic models were recalled for similar issues and is concerned about potential loss of control while driving.

Your steering wheel is sticking when you make small adjustments at highway speeds, then suddenly releasing and causing the car to overcorrect and veer off course. This makes the vehicle hard to control and could be dangerous. This problem has been reported by multiple owners of this model year on online forums. A mechanic should inspect your steering system, steering column, and power steering components for binding or wear.

This has been occurring for many months. Experience STICKY STEERING! Seems to be air temperature and speed related.

The electric power steering intermittently resists driver input during low-speed maneuvers and near full-lock turns. Steering effort suddenly increases and feels as if assist is being applied against driver input. This behavior matches the failure description in Honda EPS torque sensor magnet recall (2017–2018 Civic / CR-V, campaign C2N / P20).

Your steering wheel feels stiff and resistant when driving above 40 mph, making it harder to steer smoothly, especially on the highway. This issue appears similar to a known recall affecting other 2017 Honda Civics, but your vehicle's VIN isn't included in that recall despite showing the same symptoms. A steering system inspection and potential repair of the steering column or intermediate shaft may be needed to restore proper steering feel and responsiveness.

Your steering wheel is sticking when driving at highway speeds, requiring you to jerk the wheel to correct your direction. The problem is getting progressively worse. This issue has been reported by multiple owners of this vehicle.

When driving my car the steering wheel was sticking really bad I had to use both hands just to keep it in control. I’m only on disability so when the McConnell Honda car here in Montgomery Al said it wasn’t the year that was recalled for this problem and it would cost me over 4600.00 I was floored. 2016 was recalled not 2017 .

Car has only 45,000 miles. Steering suddenly “sticks” on the highway. You have to apply pressure to break it out of sticking in the middle position.

Steering wheel is sticking really bad on my 2017 Honda civic. Why is it not on the recall list?

Your 2017 Honda Civic's head gasket failed at 110,000 miles, was repaired by a Honda dealership, and then failed again after just 36,000 more miles. When it failed the second time, your car went into limp mode while you were driving on the interstate at highway speeds with no warning beforehand. The dealership has confirmed the head gasket failed again, though it hasn't been inspected further yet. Fixing this will require the dealership to replace the head gasket and potentially inspect the engine for related damage.

The 10th generation Honda Civic's have multiple extended warranties from Honda for bad Air Compressors and Condensers. And the A/C Evaporator needs to be included in this. My car only has 60,000 miles on it, is not driven daily, and my A/C Evaporator is leaking Freon due to a bad part.

The air conditioning system failed due to recurring evaporator leaks in my 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback. The evaporator is available for inspection upon request.AC failure causes interior fogging in humid/rainy conditions, reducing visibility and increasing crash risk.

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Civic equipped with Hankook Tires, Tires Line: New Englander 4S, Tire Size: 215/50/R17, DOT Number: [XXX] . The contact stated while driving 15 MPH, the front tires started wobbling. The contact stated that the failure persisted while driving 45 MPH.

Your AC evaporator has failed, which can cause your windshield to fog up and reduce your visibility while driving — a safety concern for you and your passengers. This is part of a pattern where Honda's AC system components (the condenser and compressor) have also failed in your vehicle. Your dealer has confirmed the issue, but Honda has refused to cover it under warranty despite multiple reports of this part failing.

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. There were several unknown warning lights illuminated.

The car stalls upon acceleration while driving. At times it will stall in the middle of the road; skipping repeatedly or simply not accelerating at all. There are often no warning signs at all, though when it skips repeatedly upon acceleration, the engine check light will appear.

While driving in normal or sport mode, the steering wheel would stick and not steer fluid or smooth. Like the steering was getting stuck on a gear.
