2022 Honda CR-V

Steering dominates the complaint picture for the 2022 CR-V, with owners consistently describing a sticky or binding steering wheel that resists smooth input in both directions. The sensation tends to occur at highway speeds and makes the wheel feel locked in place, which owners say leads to overcorrection. Several report being quoted substantial repair costs, steering rack replacement in the range of several thousand dollars, on relatively low-mileage vehicles. Forward collision avoidance draws the second-largest share of complaints, with owners reporting unwanted or unexpected activation of the automatic braking system. The electrical system rounds out the notable complaint areas, though at lower volume. A handful of isolated reports mention transmission shutdown and at least one moonroof failure, but these appear as individual accounts rather than recurring patterns. The steering sticking issue, particularly the binding sensation during directional input, is the most consistently described symptom across this model year.
