There has been a weird sound coming from the center of the steering wheel (where the airbags deploy) when turning the steering wheel either direction, its a weird faint sound that is very hard to explain, best explanation that comes to my mind is sandy, it sounds like when a few tiny grains of sand is splashing around a can or bottle or something, hard to explain. It is quite audible if you have radio silence and the windows are rolled up. Took it to the dealership, and they replaced a spring or something and the sound still persists. They then decided to test other Si's on the lot same year and body type (2017 Sedan) and according to them they all had similar sounds. So the verdict I got from them was it seems to be a "normal defect" coming from the airbag and until Honda releases a service bulletin they dont know what else to do. So here I am wondering if I am an isolated case or if it is in fact a "normal defect". Does anybody else hear weird noises coming from the center of their steeeing wheel when turning either direction? Please let me know either way so that maybe I could use the replies here to pursue further actions.
