    Steering feels sticky/jerky when turning left. Front-left tire outer edge is severely worn down, while other tires are normal. Honda recall 24V744 for steering gearbox was completed, but the problem persists. I suspect the steering rack is defective, causing misalignment and abnormal tire wear. This affects vehicle control and safety.

    When I bought the car, I noticed that it was drifting and I was having to have steer harder to keep it in the lane and I'm assuming it's contributed to the steering box or the gearbox, where there was a recall and nobody informed me about that and I would like to get that fixed as soon as possible but Clark not Honda in Pharr Texas keeps on telling me that they don't have appointments and that they're giving me the runaround. That's very dangerous as I have children in my…

    Honda has made it extremely easy for thieves to steal the front radar sensor on all 2024 CR-V models. Mine was recently stolen, and there is currently no approved protection or deterrent offered by Honda to prevent this. Even after replacing it, the risk of it being stolen again remains very high. As a result, losing this sensor completely disables key Honda Sensing safety features, making the vehicle less safe to drive. On top of that, the replacement cost ranges from…
