| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The horn on this 2006 chrysler pt cruiser only works intermittently and only when you hit a place on the wheel extremely hard. several times i have had to feel around on the wheel pushing and pushing to make it work. in a situation where the horn is necessary it is too late. i was told by my dealer when i had it in to be fixed two times that this is a common problem with the new pt cruiser and that it was the major complaint from consumers. i did not have the problem with my 2002 model. i do not use the horn often but as a warning to avoid incidents. it is a necessary part of the vehicle. i am concerned that a design flaw may cause an accident or injury. please see if you can inform chrysler. thank you. *jb *ak *nm |
