Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 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
