COMMUNICATIONS - HORN ASSEMBLY | |||

This is a concern. i had my dealership investigate why the horn doesn't always work and the response was that since it is tied to the driver airbag it would cost big dollars to fix. i had an accident in a private parking lot and was unable to warn the other driver that they were about to back into me. it is worse in colder weather. the lack of a working horn is a serious safety issue and i shouldn't have to pay to fix it. it has been a problem from for a long time and this is my 2nd complaint to the nhtsa.*ak | |||

Car horn fails to work when cold temps outside and engine cold. left button on steering wheel never works and right button only works when car is warm. i got hit in a parking lot (luckily low speed) and i couldn't warn the other driver who didn't see me because the horn wouldn't blow. this is a serious problem - what happens on a highway when a driver doesn't see me??? i see other complaints on this web site about horns not working and i think it should really be looked into!! *ak | |||

Horn buttons mounted on the steering wheel don't work and failed during the 1st year. dealer reports these are a part of the driver's side air bag assembly. to fix the horn buttons, the air bag assembly must be replaced. cost of air bag assembly is over $600. *ak |
