Consumer Description

THE HORN STARTED SOUNDING FOR NO REASON IN OUR DRIVEWAY. THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THAT THE HORN SWITCH IN THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY IS BROKEN AND IN THE CLOSED POSITION. THE PART COST IS A RIDICULOUS $1,000.00. ALL AIRBAG ASSEMBLIES IN ALL THE LOCAL WRECKING YARDS ALSO HAVE BROKEN HORN SWITCHES. HOW CAN THIS BE ALLOWED? THE HORN IS A VERY NECESSARY SAFETY DEVICE THAT SHOULD LAST THE ENTIRE LIFE OF A VEHICLE. WHY HASN'T A RECALL NOTICE BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS CONDITION? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
