2024 Acura Integra Complaints

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? STEERING. MOMENTARY INCREASE IN STEERING EFFORT FREQUENTLY OCCURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? RISK OF LOSS OF CONTROL. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? YES, DEALER CONFIRMED ON 3/8/2024. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? ISSUE WAS REPRODUCED AND ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE DEALER BUT THE ACTUAL STEERING WAS NOT INSPECTED TO MY KNOWLEDGE. THEY INDICATE THAT ACURA IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT HAS NOT ISSUED ANY DIRECTION EVEN THOUGH THE WELL KNOWN FIX IS REPLACEMENT OF THE STEERING RACK. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? NO

The rear window defroster does not operate to normal standards on the rear windshield. For example, it took almost 30 minutes for the rear defroster to begin working from the time it was powered on. This was on a relatively warm day, with condensation on the back windshield. Rear visibility was affected on my drive. I do plan to have the dealer inspect since it's a brand new car, but have not yet. No warning lights, etc. Multiple complaints on Integra forum similar to this complaint.

Steering sticks. Steering sticks every time vehicle is driven more than 15-20 minutes at highway speeds with and without lane keeping assistance on. Very uneasy feeling driving this vehicle. First noticed problem the day after I purchased this certified preowned dealer loaner Acura Integra A Spek vehicle with 4000 miles on Jan 3, 2024. Reported problem to Acura Dealership where I purchased vehicle on February 8, 2024. Awaiting guidance from dealership and Acura representative.

The steering wheel sticks and/or takes more effort to turn when traveling >30MPH. The steering wheel does not return to center on its own at these speeds. When the steering wheel sticks during a turn (as if it were in a notch) it takes more effort to get the wheel out of the notch and I have over corrected in a turn multiple times because of the extra force needed to turn the wheel. Symptoms started around 3500 miles, 3 months into ownership. Issue is inconsistent, not easily replicated except under precise driving conditions. at speeds <30 MPH, the issue is rarely present.

car has 5700 miles and intermittently experience the steering getting stuck in a position until i give it a little tug to break it free. Happens more frequently after taking a long wide turn and trying to straighten the wheel after.
