Consumer Description

I NOTICED MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYING ON AND THE HORN NOT WORKING. I CALLED A DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS PROBABLY A CLOCKSPRING. SHE SAID THEY GO OUT REGULARLY. IT EVIDENTLY AFFECTS THE AIRBAG, HORN AND OTHER COMPONENTS. NOT LONG AFTER MINE WENT OUT, MY MOTHERS STARTED DOING THE SAME THING. SHE ALSO HAS A 1997 MODEL DODGE, BUT HERS IS A GRAND CARAVAN. I THEN WENT TO MY MECHANIC TO ASK HIM IF HE COULD FIX IT AND HE SAID HE HAD JUST HAD SOMEONE ELSE COME IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS IS VERY UNSAFE.*AK
