What's wrong?
The electronic power steering gear box in the 2023-2024 Honda Odyssey and Rdx helps turn driver input at the steering wheel into movement at the front wheels. It uses an electric assist motor and internal gears so the wheel turns with controlled effort instead of forcing the driver to move the steering load alone.
On affected vehicles, the reducer in the steering gear box assembly was not tightened properly during production. Honda traced the problem to a fastening tool change and a removed manual start step in the procedure. Because the reducer was not secured correctly, water can enter the assembly. That moisture can cause corrosion inside the gear box, and corroded gears can bind when the driver turns the wheel.
The warning sign is abnormal noise when turning the steering wheel. If you hear grinding, scraping, or another unusual sound while steering, use that wording when you call the Honda dealer about campaign 24V114.
