Consumer Description

THE HORN HAD NEVER BEEN EASY TO USE, NOR DID IT ALWAYS FUNCTION, BUT SUDDENLY IT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF, THEN IT COMPLETELY DIED. ON TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY DIAGNOSED A SHORT-CIRCUIT AND PRONOUNCED THAT IT WOULD COST $1,390.00 + TAX TO REPAIR, AS THEY WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG IN ADDITION TO THE 2 HORNS THAT THE CAR APPARENTLY HAS. *JB
