| Beginning march 1999 my horn has failed to work. they fixed the problem then - said the contacts were loose. after about a year the horn stopped working again. i took it back to the dealer in june 2000 and they informed me that the contacts were loose and it needs a horn pad. in order to fix the horn it would cost $600 due to the airbag. once they put the horn back together it worked for a little while. it has since stopped working again.*ak | |||
