| The horn just randomly goes off. to get it to stop i had to pull the fuse which also disconnects the air bag. after reading about the exact same problem by hundreds of sebring owners, i feel that chrysler should replace the horn and air bag (chrysler mechanic told me it was all one unit and to replace it would be over $700). this is a safety issue, not only for me but for others on the road. *tr | |||

| The horn on my 2005 chrysler sebring gtc convertible started honking intermittently six times during the past 2 months. it is a safety issue, at least to me, that when the horn starts honking in heavy traffic on the freeway that not only am i distracted trying to shut the thing up but everyone around me is alarmed because a honking horn signals danger. i have taken out the fuse for the horn, so now i do not have a horn but that is preferable to repairing the problem or having a horn. i read on the internet others with the exact same problem and it seems no one is really sure how to handle it as there were different 'fixes' and some didn't work. *tr | |||

| The horn will not stop blowing, i will be driving & the horn will go off until i beat the steering wheel to turn it off, it has scared several drivers & upset several drivers as well. it also went just sitting in the driveway waking up the neighbors. i have taken the car to the dealership & am being told it is something within the airbag & needs to be replaced, @ my cost not covered in the extended warranty. i have heard of a few other complaints of the same thing. it is a costly procedure & something i can not afford, this is a somewhat new car, i shouldn't have to pay for this, it sounds like a manufacuring issue. *ak | |||

| When driving my 2005 chrysler sebring conv/gt the horn started blowing. i had to repeatedly punch the steering wheel until it stopped. it has happened several times. took it to the dealer, and they told me it wasthe air bag, and it was not covered by extended warranty. they want $750. 00 to fix the problem. i have no horn, except when it wants to work, and no airbag in a gray 2-door convertible - scary. the carwas unsafe to drive.*ak | |||
