Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had this happen twice in less than 15 months. the 2001 saturn vue's horn becomes jam due to problems with the airbag. according to the mechanics at the saturn dealership the airbag presses down on the horn and jams it causing it to go off non stop, the only way to turn it off is to disconnect the fuse. the second time this happened to me according to the dealership it fried the horn connection in the steering wheel, my concern about this since its happen to me so often is could it accidentally set off the airbag? also can this be a fire hazard due to the cables being burnt within the steering wheel? i would be willing to let you guys inspect my automobile. in order to repair this the whole airbag system, and horn needs to be repair.*jb
