Consumer Description

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT. TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, IT MADE A BIT OF A CRUNCHING SOUND. LIGHT STAYED ON; SOUND HAPPENED WHENEVER STEERTING WHEEL TURNED. CALLED MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS THE AIR BAG MAY DEPLOY. FURTHER DIAGNOSTIC REVEALED THE NEED FOR A REPLACEMENT CLOCK SPRING FOR THE AIR BAG WHICH IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR BUT THE CAR WAS DEEMED TOO UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS IT IS. SOME TIME BACK, I WAS HEARING A SQUEAKING WHILE TURNING THE WHEELS VERY SLOWLY AND THOUGHT IT WAS A TIRE ISSUE, BUT NOTHING APPEARED TO BE A PROBLEM THERE. *JS
