Consumer Description

MY HORN WORKS WHEN IT WANTS TO. I DIDN'T WORK WHEN I BOUGHT IT. (WE BOUGHT IT USED). WE REPLACED THE FUSE, BUT IT STILL DIDN'T WORK. THEN ONE DAY IT JUST WORKED AND CONTINUED FOR MONTHS. THEN IT STOPPED WORKING AGAIN. THIS HAPPEN TWICE. SO AT THIS TIME THE HORN IS STILL NOT WORKING. MY OTHER PROBLEM WAS MY COLANT LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. WE WOULD ADD COOLANT ALL THE TIME. (IT WAS NEVER CLOSE TO BEING EMPTY.) IT MOSTLY HAPPEN WHEN I WAS MOVING, BUT IT HAPPEN WHILE SITTING STILL TOO. IT WOULD COME OFF AND ON CONSTANTLY. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE COOLANT SENSOR. I SAW OTHER PEOPLE ALSO HAD THAT PROBLEM.*AK
