NHTSA Complaint #10312959 — 2002 DODGE CARAVAN

2002 DODGE CARAVAN I'VE HAD SINCE NEW, HAS A HORN THAT HAS PROGRESSIVELY LOST AREAS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WHERE IT CAN BE ACTIVATED. I'VE NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT WITH IT, BUT NEARLY HAD A COUPLE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE SINCE ITS INCEPTION OVER 4 YEARS BACK. DUE TO HIGH COST OF REPAIR BY DODGE I HAVE OPTED TO LIVE WITH THE PROBLEM. BUT IF THIS IS SOMETHING ENDEMIC TO THIS, OR OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES, I'D LIKE TO HAVE IT FIXED. HORNS SHOULD NOT SPONTANEOUSLY DEGRADE LIKE THIS. THE PROBLEM IS OBVIOUSLY IN THE SWITCH IN THE STEERING WHEEL. *TR
