| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Horn starts honking by itself in mid-night when nobody is on the car. the car is not equipped with any anti-theft alarm system. the honking sound is steady rather than alternating like that made by anti-theft alarm. after local police notification, i went to the parking lot. the car had been honking for over thirty minutes non-stop. the moment i push the "unlock" button on the remote keyless controller, the honking stopped. the first tme this problem happened, the dealer, crystal mazda in nj, replaced both horns that were almost burnt out. but they failed to find the real problem which i strongly suspect is relevent to the remote keyless entry module that can control horn. then, exactly the same problem happened about one month later in the morning. crystal auto mall failed to find any problem. they didn't replace any part.*ak |
