Steering rack OEM Subaru or OEM Honda

My 2013 WRX has a 2020 STI one that the previous owner installed. It’s super good

I have a 13 WRX, had the 15+ sti steering rack for 2 years now. I think it feels much better then the stock one! No issues with TC or VDC.

Have on in my 14 sti, love it. Not sure how different the electronic systems are from wrx to sti but no issues with about 5k miles on it.

Mine was the same thing. Had the recall for my 2024 civic. Got it fixed for free at the dealer.

I have the same issue with my 2024 Civic, and the dealership told me everything is tight and that I don't have to worry. They also mentioned that this issue is present in all Civics that had the steering recall work done, which makes no sense at all.

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

I’ve been having this issue for a year or so and only recently has it started getting worse. ‘22 sport @ 100k miles. I noticed it on the highway a long time ago when making small adjustments to stay in lane. Like initial resistance to break the wheel free before it would actually move. Now it seems to be happening during left turns, it will bind and basically hold the wheel in place and I’ll have to break it free to get to center properly.
