Consumer Description
I WAS PARKED ON FLAT GROUND WHILE STARTING MY CAR THIS MORNING AND NOTICED THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DASH BOARD STAYED LIGHT. THEN I NOTICED THE STEREO CONTROL ON THE STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT LIGHT AND DID NOT WORK. AT WORK I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT IT COULD BE THE CLOCK SPRING. WHEN I GOT HOME FROM WORK I TESTED MY HORN TO FIND THAT MY HORN DOES NOT WORK. MY VEHICLE HAS 47773 MILES AND I BOUGHT IT NEW. I'M ALMOST POSITIVE IT IS THE CLOCK SPRING AFTER ALL THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE. I FEEL VW SHOULD EXTEND THE RECALL PAST 2014 BECAUSE IT SEEMS OBVIOUS THAT THE ISSUE CONTINUED INTO 2015 MODELS.
