Consumer Description

THE CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY THAT IS HOUSED IN THE STEERING COLUMN HAS FAILED DUE TO A KNOWN DESIGN FLAW. THE ASSEMBLY CONTROLS THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG, THE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE HORN. AS A RESULT OF THIS FAILURE, I HAVE AN AIRBAG NOTIFICATION LIGHT THAT STAYS ON AND BOTH THE CRUISE CONTROL AND HORN DO NOT FUNCTION. THIS SPECIFIC ITEM IS THE SUBJECT OF A RECENT RECALL, HOWEVER, MY VIN# DOES NOT APPEAR ON THE LIST OF VEHICLES THE MANUFACTURER HAS DETERMINED PRONE TO FAILURE. AS A RESULT, I AM LIABLE FOR IDENTICAL REPAIRS WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF REDRESS.
