Gradually the steering became stiff. Took by local Honda after having to wait a couple days since they were booked with appointments. After the initial inspection had to wait a couple more days for the steering pump to be ordered. I was also told that it may involve the steering rack, but should wait to see if the 1 part would fix the whole problem. Went back again to have part put in and thought it was all overwith. Then steering was stiff when turning right. Took back and was told needed a new steering rack. This was covered under my extended warranty. Had to take the car back in for a 3rd time.

Car is 3 years, 4 months old. Beyond the 3 year warranty, but under the 36K limit. Mostly light city driving. Certainly not abused. And power steering rack leaks? Dealer's response is 'check the fluid regularly, or spend $1040 for replacement.
