2017 HONDA CIVIC

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2013-2023 Honda Accord, Civic Coupe, Civic Sedan, Civic Hatchback, Civic Type R, CR-V, HR-V, Ridgeline, Odyssey, Acura ILX, MDX, MDX Hybrid, RDX, RLX, TLX, 2019-2022 Honda Insight, Passport, 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid, 2018-2019 Honda Clarity PHEV, Fit, and 2015-2020 Honda Accord Hybrid, Pilot, Acura NSX vehicles. The fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail.

Risk: Fuel pump failure can cause an engine stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.

STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Honda Civic and CR-V vehicles. The magnet that controls the torque sensor output signal for the electronic power steering system may not be properly secured, allowing the magnet to become dislodged. During a full lock turn, the dislodged magnet may cause steering assist to be applied in the opposite direction.

Risk: The unintended steering input reduces vehicle maneuverability and increases the risk of a crash.

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:OWNERS/SERVICE/OTHER MANUAL

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Honda Civic Hatchback and Civic Type R vehicles. The owners guide in these vehicles may not have been included or if included, the owner's guide may not have been properly provided required information. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 225, "Child Restraint Anchorage Systems."

Risk: If the information is missing or improper, it can increase the risk of injury or a crash.

AIR BAGS

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback and Civic Type R vehicles. Driver and front passenger seatback pads sold as replacement service parts were made without slit openings for the seat-mounted side air bags. In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, the seatback pad would interfere and adversely affect air bag performance. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 214, "Side Impact Protection."

Risk: If the seat-mounted air bags cannot not deploy correctly in the event of a crash, there would be an increased risk of injury.

STEERING

Experiencing what is described as sticky steering. Driving the car on the highway the steering feels stuck and hard to maneuver, making correction tricky. This is dangerous and mostly occurs when driving on the highway at high speed.

STEERING

I am experiencing what is described as STICKY STEERING. This has been a consistent problem over the last several months. The ONLY time it sticks is when minute inputs to maintain straight are necessary. There is initial resistance to any input of the steering wheel (from straight ahead center) at the time of correction, and then that resistance breaks, resulting in over correction. Left or Right inputs are identical. This only occurs while attempting to maintain straight. It is not evident while making turns, nor do I feel ANY resistance, or breaking while turning the steering wheel when the car is stationary.

TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel was sticking. The steering wheel was pulling in one direction and jerking, causing the contact to make corrections to center the steering wheel. The contact stated that the failure had become more prevalent at highway speeds. Additionally, the TPMS warning light illuminated after the tires were replaced. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

The A/C system in my Honda 2017 failed. The compressor was covered under Honda’s extended warranty, but the evaporator, which was also leaking, was not covered even though both are part of the same system. This seems to be a common issue. A/C failure can seriously affect comfort and safety in hot and humid conditions, especially when it impacts defogging and visibility. I believe this should be investigated as a potential safety concern.

STEERING

After driving the car at highway speed for about 30 minutes the steering wheel feels sticky and hard to maneuver. This is dangerous and occurs any time the car has been driven on the highway for a while.

STEERING

Over the last few months I’ve noticed my 2017 Civic SI steering feeling delayed or episodically unresponsive while driving on the interstate. The best way to describe it is as momentarily sticking where it doesn’t respond when making small steering movements requiring an over correction then correction to the over correction. I’m reading this a known issue with civics but aren’t seeing the 2017s included. The car feels unsafe when this happens. Is it possible to include this model as well?

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I am filing a safety complaint regarding my 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback and the dangerous issue related to its air conditioning (A/C) system — a problem affecting many Civic owners nationwide. I initially brought my vehicle to Honda City Chicago for a Honda “campaign” repair (a term they use instead of calling it a recall) in 2023 and again this year, related to the A/C system. I was told the issue would be resolved. However, after agreeing to an optional transmission oil change they recommended, I was later told the A/C still wasn’t fixed — and that I now needed to pay $400 for a diagnostic. That diagnostic revealed the actual problem: a locked A/C compressor. (Which they knew they just wanted the money) This defect is not just an inconvenience — it’s a serious safety hazard. When the A/C is turned on, the locked compressor causes the engine to shake violently and stall completely. This happened to me at a red light; the car shut off, became unresponsive, and I was stuck blocking traffic. If this had occurred while driving at higher speeds, the consequences could have been catastrophic. Many Civic owners have reported similar compressor failures leading to engine stalls and unsafe driving conditions. Honda is aware of this issue but continues to treat it as isolated rather than a systemic defect. I urge the NHTSA to open a formal investigation into this widespread and dangerous issue involving locked A/C compressors in 2016–2020 Honda Civics. A safety recall is warranted before more drivers are put at risk or harmed due to this known defect.

STEERING

This vehicle has a defect in the steering rack, specifically the gearbox. Symptoms include sticky or glitchy steering movements of the steering wheel. This cases jerky adjustments in steering the car. Honda has known about this issue with 10th generation civics but has only addressed models 2022-2025 with a recalls. This car is an effort to drive at highway speeds.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 77,646.

STEERING

My steering wheel kept jerking and pulling my car while driving and I was told my steering gearbox needs replaced. I find it odd that this was a recall on all 2017 Honda Civic but not with mine. I would think if the recall is there and a vehicle the same year has the problem, there would be an issue to resolve

STEERING

Sticky steering wheel. It gets worse to steer above 50 to 60 miles an hour. Noise when it is turned. The steering has once locked when turned to an extreme angle.

STEERING

The steering feels like it is sticking, having to correct it all the time to keep a lane.

STEERING

There is a recall for 2022-2025 Honda civics for gearbox repair/sticky steering issues and my year 2017 is NOT included. I’ve had this issue since I bought my car from Phillipsburg/Easton Honda on October 3, 2023. I thought it was unique to this car until I looked it up online and noticed that several car owners have the same issue. I feel that N HTSA need to look into it and add 2017 Honda Civic to this recall. A mechanic told me it could cost upwards over $2300 to make this repair. How is a normal person supposed to afford such an expensive repair. I purchased a Honda for the first time in my life wanting an affordable good car and it’s been nothing but a headache since I purchased it. I am worried that because I drive the everyday on the highway, I will get into an accident one day because if the steering sticking issue… PLEASE HELP

STEERING

The steering wheel is sticking in my 2017 Civic. This problem happens more frequently after I have been driving for a while and is more common at speeds above 40 mph. The steering wheel will feel "locked" in place and require force to turn the wheel. It feels sticky and heavy, and occurs especially often on the freeway, leading to dangerous situations where I have to jerk the wheel, either causing my car to deviate from my path, or not allowing me to respond to changing road conditions in time. The steering column is still original and has not been previously repaired. These symptoms sound surprisingly like NHTSA recall # 4V-744, though my vehicle falls outside of the model range. Potentially defective parts include the electric power steering rack, the gearbox worm wheel, or a clock spring. It has not been replicated at a dealer despite multiple inspections, but I finally got a video of it happening. It has been happening for about a year, but has been getting worse. I checked my tire inflation multiple times and it has not resolved the problem. No warning lamps, message, or other symptoms have been reported.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I brought my 2017 Honda Civic to an authorized dealership in Phoenix, AZ in June 2025 for A/C issues. Honda has issued an extended warranty on A/C compressors and condensers due to known defects, and my compressor was found to be leaking and covered under that warranty. However, the dealership refused to perform the warranty repair unless I agreed to pay $2,311 out of pocket to replace the evaporator, citing signs of dye in the evaporator case. I declined, and the compressor repair was denied. When I picked up the vehicle, the A/C system was worse than before. Before the inspection, the driver side blew 90°F air and the passenger side blew 68°F. After the inspection, both sides blow extremely hot air and there is a loud hissing noise coming from the dash. I now cannot operate the vehicle safely in 110°F+ Arizona heat. This is not just an inconvenience — it’s a potential safety hazard, particularly in a state like Arizona where cabin temperatures can become dangerous. Honda’s refusal to honor the warranty and deterioration of system function following the inspection suggest bad faith and put driver and passenger health at risk. I am filing this report to document the issue and to add to any investigation into this widespread A/C defect on 2016–2018 Honda Civics.

STEERING

The steering wheel of the vehicle often feels like it gets stuck around the 12 o’clock position frequently. Extra force is needed to correct steering. Then you have to correct the correction. The symptoms occur more often than not. This condition was discovered shortly after purchasing the used car. Honda dealer said steering rack would need replaced. The vehicle does not display any codes or service warnings. Since there are no recalls on this VIN#, I assume this will NEVER cause an accident to the occupants or others on the road.

STEERING

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Civic. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel failed to turn in the intended direction. The contact stated that the steering wheel felt like it was sticking. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

STEERING

I have owned my 2017 Honda Civic LX since it was new and have maintained the car consistently since purchasing it; the car is lightly driven and while over seven years old, only has 28,000 miles on it. In recent months, I had experienced some odd occurrences on the highway of my steering wheel seeming to stick when driving at highway speeds especially noticeable after driving the car for at least 10-15 minutes; there were no warning lights or other alerts on the car of a problem. I took my car to be evaluated at a Honda dealership service center in early May, as it was difficult to control the car within highway lanes, very dangerous especially in windy conditions. In that diagnostic appointment, a certified Honda mechanic verified the suspected cause of a sticky steering wheel - a failing steering rack. The mechanic could not explain why that part would fail, especially in a car with such low miles, as they said the problem was internal and could not be visualized. This is a known issue, and not just for the Civics and some other models from 2022-2025 for which there was a recall issued, but for the same generation Civics that mine is; there are many reports of 2016-2018 Civics having this issue around the 20-30,000 mile mark. After that diagnosis and being unwilling to pay out of pocket for an issue related to an internal component of an original Honda part, I reached out to Honda customer service. After spending a couple weeks communicating with Honda Customer Service and proving all the maintenance and diagnostics on the vehicle, they are unwilling to acknowledge this as an issue and have dismissed my case. I am asking that Honda be held accountable for this faulty part and stand by their brand and consumer safety, as this issue has led to crashes in Honda's with this defect.

STEERING

The steering is sticky, especially when driving on the highway in a straight line. It feels as though the steering wheel is locked and you have to apply extra pressure to free it. This can cause the car to jerk and oversteer. It feels very unsafe.

My paint has been coming off for a while now and now I have serious rust issues. I have gone in for inspection at the local Honda dealership and they recommended for me to contact Honda of America. I contacted them and they said that there was nothing that they could do. I shouldn't have to fork out money for a bad paint job. My car is rusting. Please help me.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Drivers Side Air Conditioning does not work, blows warm air instead of cold.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

The air conditioning system failed—specifically, the A/C evaporator developed a leak and stopped functioning. This is part of the same system that previously experienced failures in the compressor and condenser, both of which were replaced under warranty. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Loss of air conditioning, especially in hot weather, presents a heat-related safety risk, including reduced driver alertness and potential heat exhaustion—particularly for long drives or when transporting vulnerable passengers (e.g. children, elderly). Additionally, a non-functioning defogger (which relies on the A/C system) can impair visibility in humid or rainy conditions, increasing the risk of an accident.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I'm filing this complaint regarding my 2017 Honda Civic Touring (VIN: [XXX] , ~75,000 miles). The AC condenser failed, which Honda covered under an extended warranty (TSB 19-091). However, the AC compressor also failed, and Honda denied coverage, even for goodwill. I believe the compressor failure is a direct result of the leaking condenser with a possible compressor seal leak. Refrigerant loss causes the compressor to overwork and lose lubrication, leading to premature failure. The car mechanic had noted how low our refrigerant fluid was. A compressor should last well beyond 73,000 miles, typically 100,000-150,000+. This early failure, linked to a known condenser defect, points to a systemic manufacturing flaw. Furthermore, the dealership's "blue light" test for leaks might have been inadequate. Honda's TSB 23-012 specifically requires a "calibrated sniffer" for compressor shaft seal leaks, a more rigorous diagnostic that may have been overlooked. This means a compressor seal leak, caused by the condenser issue, could have been missed. Widespread AC component failures (condensers and compressors) in 10th-gen Civics are well-documented, leading to class-action lawsuits. This is not an isolated incident but a pervasive defect. A sudden AC failure affects driver comfort and can be a safety concern, especially in extreme heat, by potentially causing distraction. I urge NHTSA to investigate this systemic issue and compel Honda to cover the compressor replacement, acknowledging the direct link and apparent manufacturing defect.

Bottom window molding on all 4 windows fails prematurely, seemingly happening on every 10th-Generation Honda.

STEERING

There is a steering issue with this car and there are numerous complaints of this online. The steering as become very "sticky". This causes the need for constant steering corrections to be made often times causing over corrections because of the sticky nature of the wheel. This is very unsafe and can lead to accidents on the road. I have read this is an issue with the EPS system on the car.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

After turning off the vehicle and locking it the vehicle continuously turns on to accessory mode on its own. On a few occasions I came out to a dead battery or have been woken up more than once to my alarm blaring in the middle of the nite and when I came out to check my vehicle it was usually turned on to accessory mode upon researching the internet I found that many owners with the 2016 and 2017 have the same problem which is a result of a faulty Body Control Module within the keyless entry system. I have taken my car to honda to be fixed it's been 3 days now with no solution on repairs yet.6/7/25

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

While driving my Honda civic 2017, a loud static noise suddenly started coming from the vehicle’s audio system or speakers. The noise is persistent and does not stop unless I turn off the vehicle completely. This creates a significant distraction and could interfere with hearing emergency vehicles or other road sounds. This issue occurs randomly and is a serious safety concern.

STEERING

When driving at high speeds (60+ mph) for longer distances (10+ miles), the steering wheel becomes "sticky". When minor adjustments are attempted, the steering wheel will resist turning until a significant amount of force is applied, then it will suddenly "unstick" causing overcorrection. This makes it difficult maintain lane safely. No warning lights active. Inspected by manufacturer and they could not reproduce, however they may not have driven it at high speeds for long enoug.

STEERING

Steering feels notchie or sticky at speed on warm days. It makes very difficult to fine control the vehicle lane position. Several pounds of force are required to break free and move the wheel. The condition at first would show randomly, but is much more noticeable and frequent lately. It does this in the counterclockwise direction. It shows up on straight line driving. I am sure to the observes it looks like my vehicle is driven by an intoxicated driver.Same exactly as Honda reference C2N and P2O, but my car was not included in the recall.

STEERING

For at least 6-9 months the Steering has been Notchy and freezes then releases. For part of a second, the car refuses to respond to my steering input. Very Scary and getting worse.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Came out to a dead battery, despite the battery being less than four months old. On one occasion, I came out to the vehicle with the windows rolled down. On another occasion, I was told there was an issue with the anti-theft system. There was even a time where I came out to my car in accessory mode, despite not turning the vehicle on. Reading online, all signs point to a failure of the BCM. This is a common enough issue where there are entire threads dedicated to the problem.

SERVICE BRAKES

The issue I’m having is that the break red light in the orange brake system just appears randomly without me activating the break. on one occasion I parked the car without seeing any of those signals, then upon me coming out of the store, both signals appeared on the dashboard. my car was stuck in break four hours. After continuously, activating the electronic brake and inactivating it I was able to drive home. I am currently driving day two with both signals flashing on my dashboard. The wheels are rolling and not dragging so I’m not sure what’s going on. This is a safety hazard for not only myself or family, but for other drivers on the road because if this decides to just stop in the middle of the road activating the brakes I’m going to be in trouble and hopefully not life threatening trouble.

STEERING

The issue I am having on my 2017 Honda Civic is steering issues. Especially when it is warmer, the steering sticks and is jerky when trying to keep it in a straight line. It feels very unsafe and unstable driving especially on a highway at a higher speed limit. When needing to make a slight merge, with the steering sticking, you feel it jerk when you have to merge. This has happened constantly since last summer.

The AC condenser, compressor, blower, & evapoartor core all broke down. After repair, I’m still receiving a “fog horn noise” audiable sound. This is dangerous as I have no A/C in the hot summer. The dealer inspected the vehicle and confirmed the issue. They will only fix the first two (condensor & compressor) under warranty, which I’m not under warranty. They say Honda won't fix the evaporator core even though this one breaking is almost certainly a result of the condesor & compressor breaking. We believe this should also be covered under warranty. There was no warning of the issue. The evaporator core costs $2k to repair and Honda refuses to help, even though the dealer let us know that this part breaking was almost certainly caused by the parts under warranty breaking down. We asked for second oppinions with other mechanics who told us the same thing. Ended up repairing at a 3rd party shop after spending 45 days within 2 years in the shop for this issue, and paying over $5k in diagnostic and recharged coolant. The lemon law statutes are on the horizon, and the prima facie negligence to avoid repair is on the face of this ongoing issue.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

My AC started blowing hot air in 2023. I checked in with Honda and apparently they extended the warranty on the compressor shaft seal and condenser due to a class action lawsuit and other customer complaints. It turned out that both of those parts were affected in my vehicle and I got a free replacement. A year later my AC started blowing hot air again. This time the evaporator was the problem. Apparently it was not covered by warranty, and according to Honda the reason was that the compressor and condenser were separate from the evaporator, which meant the issues weren’t related. Upon research, the evaporator going bad is a common issue with Honda. I didn’t get the part replaced and paid $200 to Honda for the inspection.

STEERING

I am experiencing the same issue described in bulletin 18-102 which covers my make, model and year but not my VIN. Honda dealership quoted the same repair as the bulletin, PS rack, at $4,471. Honda America refuses to cover any of the repair even though it is a known safety issue with both the 10th and 11th generation Honda Civics.

STEERING

My 2017 Honda Civic has notchy/dead spot feeling in steering at wheel center at highway speeds. When this occurs, it causes the driver to overcorrect and loose lane position. It is worse on warmer days. Honda has a Recall already on later models but not early ones, they need to expand the recall. I called my closest dealer, and they said yes, they know of the problem, but my VIN is not affected. The Quote they gave me was $4200 that's crazy when they know of a problem.

Paint is bubbling and peeling around rear window inlay. We noticed it in August 2024, but not sure when it actually started happening. Car was not in an accident, and is in an area where there was never any exterior damage. I contacted honda and they reviewed the case and did not consider it an issue or defect caused by manufacturer. I know honda has had issues with the white paint, but I believe my paint has the same defect due to the location and how the paint is coming off. I also contacted my local honda dealer and they advised normally, for this issue, they would do a courtesy warranty repair, but since we don't service our vehicles there they wouldn't honor that. I want this documented for honda paint issues because I am sure I am not the only one with the problem.

The radio was still on, and the dash was still on, with Accessory Mode, push "start/stop" twice to turn off, or something similar to that. I pushed the button twice. It went to accessory mode. I started the engine, drove the car out of the drive way, came back, pushed the button to turn off the car... accessory mode. turned the car on, turned the car off.... accessory mode. Moved the keys all away from the car. Started the car (which i could do because it WAS STILL IN ACCESSORY MODE) and drove the car, meanwhile there was a big warning saying there was no key fob in the proximity. Parked the car, pushed the on/off button.... accessory mode. I have tried everything I can think of, the car wont lock. It wont exit accessory mode unless its in full on start. Someone could come along and steal my car because I cant turn it off. all i can do is disconnect the battery and after 2-3 days i connect it and it works just temporarily. This is not ok and unsafe especially when i have a new born and stranded in the middle of the wors place due to this issue.

Had to get the fuel injectors replaced after faulty emissions notifications. Now the car stalls from start at a stop light or stop sign. The car also stalled in stop and go traffic on the highway. We have not been driving it over the winter. It's dangerous!

Paint is coming off the car down to the metal. The paint has been recalled on other Honda vehicles. Paint #NH788P. . Several areas where paint has come off when driving on highways behind other vehicles.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

The paint started to fade and turn white 3 1/2 years ago. Called Honda and they said they were aware of the paint failure but my color did not have many with that issue and they could not do a recall on my color. Been fighting them for over 3 years and not I have several body parts that are having paint failure

STEERING

Steering feels like it is sticking slightly left of center. Noticing it more as weather is becoming warmer. It happens at slower speeds, but is more noticeable when I’m driving at faster speeds. When making small adjustments while driving, the steering wheel seems to stick/not operate smoothly. When it gets past the sticking point, it causes oversteer, making me have to overcorrect in the opposite direction. It feels very unsafe to drive, especially at higher speeds. Upon researching, I see this is a common problem and that there are recalls within my year model for this exact issue, but, upon searching my VIN, it doesn’t seem my car is included in the recall. I’m terribly concerned that this defect in the steering is going to lead to an accident. Hopefully, since I’m seeing many of this issue reported in cars not currently included in the recall, the recall will be expanded to include all of our vehicles.

STEERING

Steering wheel sticks and causes unexpected quick movements left and right. There is a Honda Service bulletin 18-102 however my VIN is coming back with no recall.

STEERING

When I am driving going above 40 miles per hour, the steering wheel has a slight resistance when making minor corrections. When trying to correct direction in a lane to stay straight, the steering wheel sticks, or catches, and when you get it to move it makes a jerking motion. This is a safety concern, because I am worried that this will ultimately result in an accident as the issue gets worse. My local Honda dealer, as well as a reputable local mechanic have reproduced the issue. The issue first appeared within the last year to two years.

STEERING

Steering is sticky. At times it takes additional force to turn. Once the additional force overcomes whatever is causing the sticking issue it results in excess steering input which has to be corrected in the opposite direction to avoid running off the road or engine another lane. Vehicle is not under warranty so I have not had it inspected. There are no warnings for the issue.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The air conditioning stopped working for the second time. So far the compressor bearing has been replaced as well as the condenser.

STEERING

I have 2017 Honda Civic. March 2023 the electronic power steering was faulty, and the dealership replaced it under warranty. February of 2024, the replacement EPS rack showed signs of sticking and jerking the same manner the original EPS did. Throughout the last year, the steering sticks when driving in curves. Same local dealership that did the first replacement while it was under warranty, now cannot find anything wrong when they drive it and put it on the diagnostic machine. In freezing temperatures of 32 degrees and below, the steering doesn't stick, but temperatures above 45 degrees, the steering sticks every time in a curve. There is something wrong with these EPS racks and I believe when they replaced the original rack, they replaced it with another faulty rack and I am having the same problems and I drive in fear daily and no one is listening to us. I've read the other same exact complaints on this website regarding this issue and most of them are within the last several months. I need someone to help me before the steering rack causes me to crash.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

My white paint is peeling really bad all over the car and it’s a 2017 Honda civic Lx. Clear coat is coming off along with original base coat. Starting to get rust and this car is not that old.

We are experiencing a technical issue with the vehicle, which appears to be caused by a software or component error, rather than user error. This situation has led to the car starting unexpectedly and presenting challenges that could compromise safety while driving. Unfortunately, there has yet to be a recall or resolution communicated by the authorities.

STEERING

The Power Steering Rack Assembly had to be replaced on my vehicle because the sensors that notify the safety systems of the direction the steering wheel is pointing failed while I was driving my son to school. The result of this failure caused a multiple system failure resulting in an inability to steer the car at speed. The Lane Keep Assist system was actively fighting against my driver input as I was driving, effectively locking the steering wheel in a stationary position. This failure not only put my and my son's life in danger but other drivers on the road as well. This could have very easily caused a severe collision considering the ability to steer a motor vehicle is arguably the most integral part of operating one. The car has decently low mileage for being 7 years old and is well-maintained. This issue occurred suddenly without any prior warning lamps, messages, etc.
