Consumer Description

HORN STARTS BLOWING SPONTANEOUSLY IN COLD WEATHER AND WILL NOT STOP UNTIL CAR IS WARMED UP. THIS PRESENTS A HAZARD TO OTHER DRIVERS AND IS A TRAFFIC VIOLATION. HORN SHARES A FUSE WITH THE FUEL PUMP, SO NO EASY WAY TO DISABLE IT AND DRIVE THE CAR, AND CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION IF THE HORN IS UNPLUGGED. A WEB SEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR, BUT SINCE THE HORN SWITCH IS PART OF THE AIRBAG UNIT THE REPLACEMENT COST IS ALMOST $1000. *TR
