Recently, after approximately 4000 miles of driving, my steering has become “sticky.” When trying to make small adjustments in direction, my steering wheel gets “stuck” and requires more force than normal to make the steering correction. This extra force causes a greater change in direction than intended. This past week while traveling on an interstate with wet roads…this problem presented itself. It felt incredibly dangerous as I felt I was zigzagging across the lane. This issue seems to be somewhat intermittent, but I am struggling to determine under what conditions the problem presents itself. Again… this issue presented with around 4000 miles on the odometer. I currently have approximately 5200 total miles driven.
The steering sticks. I have taken it to the dealer three times and they can’t find anything wrong. It happens a lot when I’m driving but they haven’t felt it on a short test drive. It’s happens frequently, just not enough for the dealer to notice.
After driving the car for around 15 minutes or so the steering becomes very stiff and takes extra effort to turn the wheel. It almost feels like it’s sticking and then releases when it gets to a certain point and then sticks again when the wheel is straightened. It seems to happen more when at speeds of 40mph and over. When the vehicle comes to a stop and you try turning the wheel it somewhat clicks and then becomes easy to turn again.
When driving above 40 mph and driving straight the steering wheel is sticky and feels like I'm constantly having to correct it slightly makes me feel like I'm swerving all the time
When driving it’s as if the steering gets stuck. The vehicle will start to pull from the left to right as if bouncing from one side of the lane to the other. All lane keep assist and road departure features are turned off. Began around 2k miles and currently has 5500. Causing me to over correct and make jerky motions to keep in lane. Sometimes feels like it doesn’t want to correct at all. Noticing it at low and high speeds, constantly fighting a car that feels like it is in control.
When driving at any speed, but particularly exceeding 40MPH, making minor adjustments to steering is sticky and requires excessive force to make the adjustment. When making the adjustment, the vehicle often makes an over-adjustment, and requires an over correction. This is particularly dangerous at highway speeds, where the problem occurs more frequently.
Sticky steering
Steering wheel sticks when making small adjustments at highway speed, which can cause jerking/swerving. Occurs more often in colder weather and after car has been driven for a period of time. Does not happen consistently and was unable to replicate the issue for the dealership. No warning lights on dashboard.

Understanding the Acura INTEGRA recall history
The Acura INTEGRA currently has 0 recall campaigns and 63 owner complaints indexed from the NHTSA public database. Each recall represents a formal campaign to fix a defect at no cost to the current owner. Owner complaints are self-reported incidents that haven't (yet) resulted in a recall but can indicate emerging patterns worth watching.
NHTSA's complaint database for the INTEGRA records 2 crash reports. Complaint data is unverified and shouldn't be read as a blanket condemnation of the model (large production volumes naturally produce more reports), but it is useful for spotting whether a specific defect has a serious real-world pattern behind it.
How to use this page
The safest path for an owner is to run your VIN through the checker above. A VIN query hits NHTSA's live API and tells you whether your specific INTEGRA has an open, unresolved recall. If you're researching a used INTEGRAbefore buying, use the recall list below to understand the model's full history, then check the seller's VIN to see whether prior owners actually completed the free repairs. Many don't, and unresolved recalls can linger for years.
Figures are generated live from the RecallScanner dataset, which is sourced from NHTSA's public recall and complaint APIs and refreshed daily. RecallScanner is independent and not affiliated with Acura or any U.S. government agency.
