Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I started the van that morning and the airbag light remained on. i was not aware at that time that my horn and cruise control were also affected. i found that the horn didn't work when a vehicle pulled out in front of me and i almost hit it. after that i checked the fuses and relays but found nothing wrong. i even took the horns off the van and wired them up directly to the battery. also my cruise control worked fine until the product failed. now that dodge fixed the clockspring the airbag light is off, i don't know if the airbag will work ? the horn works but it's not as loud as it used to be, and of course the cruise control don't. the cruise light flashes or stays on for a short time and i hope it don't short out and cause a electrical fire or the cruise system turns on and i can't turn it off? i called to take the van back the next day after i had sat at the dodge dealer for a couple hours the night before to get this issue resolved, and i was told it would be an $80.00 charge unless it was something that they caused. i told the person that it had been working fine until there product failed,and i didn't think i should have to pay. regardless to say i didn't take the van back. i don't have an extra $80.0 o give away. oh and a strange coincidence, the estimate for the clockspring is $80.00 without a recall notice, if your vehicle is on the list. i was seriously thinking about buying a new dodge truck but after this i might just go with toyota. i never got to see the part that failed. *jb |
