The steering has a catch in it which makes for jerky driving. When driving to avoid drift and correct travel path the steering has a hard spot which makes it easy to over correct causing safety issues with nearby vehicles and driving on slick roads. I had heard that some crv’s had a recall for this issue but none shows up for this vehicle. This happens frequently when driving and has happened on many trips.

Driver side door lock was broken. Car was broken into. Airbag (on steering wheel) was stolen. I am not sure if the alarm went off. Caused “Airbag System (SRS) Problem” warning light on the dash. Car was still drivable. This was during the pandemic so there was a parts shortage. Needed to replace lock, airbag, and clock spring. Took 2 weeks.
