you don't know what year it is?

brakes can be replaced very cheaply, unless possibly a brake cylinder is bad, but even then it shouldn't cost too much. good ol Honda's.

not too sure about the steering though. could possibly be the tie rods getting worn out and loose.

for your steering i strongly suggest you check the two bolts on the steering rack. you have to have the car jacked up and you can see them when you are under the car looking at the rack. Make sure those are tight, if one is missing or loose you would have to turn the wheel a bit before you get a response. Try this before taking it to a shop, it can save you some $$$$
