2022 Honda Civic SI

No clear pattern

3.4% of complaints about the 2022 Honda Civic SI arrived in its first year of service. That is an unusual figure for a 2022 vehicle, but with only 89 complaints on record the sample is too small to call it a pattern — the margin of error covers the range where ordinary vehicles sit. The figures below are reported without a verdict. The most-reported system is steering (68 complaints), typically at 2.3 yr or about 8,000 miles.

Complaints: 89
Median age at failure: 2.2 yr
Median mileage: 8,000 n=2
Crash / fire / tow: 1.1% of reports
Safety recalls: 0

In owners’ own words

Steering mileage not reported 1.3 yr in service

After driving at highway speeds for some time >10minutes, the steering wheel exhibits a "stickiness" when moving it out of straight ahead. With some extra pressure, the steering wheel then moves, jumping into a turned position, then moving smoothly through its motion. This effect continues for the entirety of the drive. This has been occurring since last fall, but seems to be getting worse over time.

Steering mileage not reported 1.1 yr in service

Steering wheel sticks at speed over 30mph. Much more noticeable at highway speeds. Small corrections just off center car jerks to which ever the direction of steering wheel was corrected to. Resulting in sticking recorrection.

Steering mileage not reported 1.3 yr in service

Steering wheel is feeling stiffer and stiffer at higher speeds I feel for my safety at times. Seems to be a know issue with all the 2022 civic models and up with the steering rack but Honda doesnât seem to do anything about.

How to read this

This is what owners reported, not a reliability rating. People file with NHTSA about alarming failures, not routine ones, and complaint volume tracks how many cars were sold.
Failure ages come from the incident date on each complaint, populated on about 83% of records. Mileage is shown where reported — NHTSA’s 2021 system change cut mileage capture to roughly 15%, so it thins out sharply after MY2020.
Every rank compares this vehicle only against others of the same model year. A 2025 car has not had time to accumulate five-year failures, so comparing early-failure share across years is meaningless.
Fourteen make-months distorted by media storms and mass recalls — Toyota in February 2010 ran 11× normal volume across 33 models — are excluded.
Recalls are manufacturer actions and authoritative; complaints are not. A recall listed here may already have been performed on any individual car. Check a specific VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
