Don't know if you read what I said, but I clearly said that I messed up with the fluid thing? Seems to me like you just want to start an argument for the sake of it. Which is why I could not tell whether you were also discounting my statement about the steering rack since you quoted my whole post. This forum is meant to share and help people about stuff related about their car and if you don't understand that then I can't help you. Don't know if you meant to quote the OP or not but I 110% agree, my first instinct would be to take it into the dealer for an issue like this.
Good sound insulation, good stereo, good passenger comforts. Steering rack issue. You will wet yourself when you drive with this problem under heavy rain and you have to play WWE with your car steering. since now 2020 civic TCP has 18-inch rim, what is Honda Malaysia excuse for this steering rack. Infamous steering rack issue that could cause fatal accident.
The EPS ControllerMany owners of a newer Honda Civic or Accord have had problems with diagnosing what it means when the EPS light lights up suddenly on the dash. The last two will trigger the EPS light to go on, but this is normal and will go out. What to Do If the EPS FailsIf you do lose all power steering during driving, stay calm. That indicated an intermittent problem with an engine speed sensor signal, a torque sensor, or the EPS control unit itself.

After that car was not maintained from Honda till Jan 2021, from then I was maintaining my car from Honda 3ds. When the issue of steering rack started Car warranty was over. Still I got my inspection done from Honda 3ds, they charged Approx 3300Rs on 10th August 2022 for the inspection and launched a Quality Claim to Atlas Honda. On the other hand I wrote an email to Atlas Honda about the issue and I was surprised to see their response asking for Claim Number. I inquired about my claim number from the Honda 3ds Karachi and responded back to the email.
That’s where your steering rack and pinion come into play. The steering rack is connected to the steering shaft, which is connected to the steering wheel. If your steering wheel is getting harder to turn, then the steering rack and pinion may be malfunctioning, thus killing your power steering. If there’s power steering fluid puddling under your car, it may be from the steering rack. In an electric power steering system, a malfunctioning steering rack and pinion can trigger warning lights, such as the EPS light or the stability control light.
On the plus side spectrum, there is Wireless andriod auto that was not advertise by Honda. I suspect my Oneplus5T is using Andriod 10, maybe the Andriod Auto version that come with Andriod 10 quite old. Now i agak understand why Honda dont want to enable and advertise wireless Andriod Auto on civic. As you can see OnePlus 5T Andriod Auto (Specifically ask for USB Connection)OnePlus 5T Andriod Auto (Specifically ask for USB Connection) vs Pixel 4aYup, wireless andriod auto works. because not all phone work flawlessly.Do check your phone andriod auto if it doesnt work.
