Consumer Description

PURCHASED THE 2006 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA IN AUGUST 2014 WITH 116,000 MILES. ONE MONTH LATER THE HORN WAS NOT WORKING. UPON DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH, DISCOVERED AN INORDINATE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT THESE HORNS BECOME INOPERABLE EVEN WITH FEWER MILES. THE PROBLEM COMES WHEN PRESSING THE HORN PAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL, IT DOES NOT MAKE CONTACT TO SOUND THE HORN. THE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY IS LOCATED HERE AS WELL SO I DON'T FEEL IT'S SAFE TO TRY TO REPLACE IT MYSELF. THE QUOTE TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED WAS $900.00. VOLKSWAGEN SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS PART IMMEDIATELY! *TR
