Default steering wheel

do all honda sterring wheels feel loose? when i drive i wiggle my steering wheel about 1" both directions and the car barely turns, and when im parked the wheel turns but the wheels turn a bit later. i dont have power steering. could there be something loose? it doesnt feel connected directly to the wheels. the other day i drove 3 hours and it was windy and my steering wheel was moving alot it got me angry lol .

Eh that's just the way Honda steering is. There is a bit that can be done of it, such as swapping with an Si/Type R steering apparatus (lots of stuff, forgot details), or some aftermarket suspension parts would help with the response a bit.

There's no problem. :-)
