Consumer Description

MY HORN SUDDENLY WENT OFF AND STUCK FOR NO REASON WHEN I GOT IN MY CAR (BEFORE I EVEN STARTED IT). I HAD SOMEONE DISCONNECT THE WIRING FOR THE HORN AND THAT PERSON TOLD ME HE COULD SMELL SOMETHING COMING FROM THE AIR BAG. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS MOST LIKELY AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE HORN. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT MY RIGHTS ARE AND WHAT I CAN DO SO THIS CAN BE FIXED. I DO NOT HAVE MUCH MONEY AS I JUST BECAME LAID OFF SO I CAN USE ANY KIND OF HELP. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP!
