Consumer Description

THE HORN ON MY 1998 DODGE RAM 1500 WILL ONLY BLOW WITH ABOUT 50 LBS OF PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE STEERING WHEEL AND ONLY IF YOU PUSH ON THE EXACT SPOT. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE A GUY BACKED OUT OF A PARKING SPOT AND RIGHT INTO THE SIDE OF MY TRUCK . I TRIED TO BLOW THE HORN BUT I COULDN'T GET IT TO WORK UNTIL IT WAS TO LATE. *JB
