All,
My 2012 Honda Civic HF exhibits unstable movements at high way speeds greater than 65mph.
A little background, after driving my New Honda Civic HF for no more than 120 miles, I reported this to
Norm Reeves Honda in West Covina Calif..they promptly realigned my new Honda…with the steering wheel crook it!!~ after a call to Honda Corporate and local dealership- they mentioned that its ‘with in spec’..even if it’s offer center by ¼ inch …what a BS quality standard that Honda has these days..fast forward to today. My car still exhibits looseness on the rear end..- example is while going on the local freeways, the car will bounce back and forth …. Looking at the latest Consumer Reports Mag..they mentioned that this car does exhibit rocking movement…,… I guess they were referring to how the car handels…oh when I called American Honda- they mentioned that it’s the road,…. Well I responded back by saying ..why does my 2004 Honda Civic does not exhibit the same looseness on the SAME road.. Next stop is to address this with the NTSB so they are aware of these mal handling concerns in this 2012 Civic.. This is my 5th Honda..moving forward, no more as the quality and support is no longer there!

 

That is bull**** not centering the wheel, you might try what i did on my 2009 LX i installed front & rear SI sway bars on mine. It stopped the wishy washy feel on the road and tightened the car up a bunch. Oh would like to add i bought a set of 2012 SI wheels & tires and that really helped to, the crappy tires Honda puts on these cars they should be punched lol.

 

Thanks for the suggestions on the SI sway bars and tires.. But in reality I should not have to do this as this is a new car. I guess that's why it's no longer on the Consumer Reports recommended list too....The centering of the steering wheel- well it's a QUALITY issue there

 

The wheel off center is just a shoddy alignment job by the dealer. Any decent third-party mechanic could straighten it up for you. It's easily adjustable, and the last guy to adjust it didn't do it.
