“I have a 2006 Chrysler Sebring Sedan. Over the past week the horn malfunctions where it will blare for 30-40 seconds while it is parked and untouched. This also happened while driving and I had to punch the steering wheel a couple times for it to stop. I had to pull out the fuse today. Why Chrysler doesn't recall this is beyond me. It is dangerous and can cause an accident.”

NHTSA complaint #10563578, filed 2014-02, 107,000 miles

“2006 Chrysler sebring,horn randomly goes off either while vehicle engine is on or off....I took out the horn fuse and now have been driving unsafely without horn and apparently airbags. This vehicle has been in a few accidents and the air bags never went off.this needs to be recalled, there are many people with this problem, and not only are we driving around without a horn, but also no airbags. …”

“I was driving to work and the horn went off all by itself. I quickly pressed the horn in response and it went off. It has continued to do this and considerably gotten worse. It goes off even when the car is not started. When I remove the fuse it stops...however I cannot get it inspected for feel safe to drive with the fuse out.”

“Back in january, my horn in my 2006 sebring started blowing between 9 & 11 pm for some unknown reason. It lasted for about 40 seconds. I did think much of it at the time, but it started happening nightly. Practically every night the horns will blow for about 40 to 60 seconds. It seems to happen whenever there is a temperature drop outside. But now it will going off sometimes when I start the car and sometime while I am driving down the road. I have to hit the horn to stop it while driving to get it to stop. …”

“I am joining the many other owners who's horns go off, with out warning car off or car on. At the same time the horn now seems to have stopped working entirely leaving me no way to warn other drivers that do not see me. I can confirm the costive a repair is on the $1100 range and my local Chrysler reports they do this repair 4 times per week, nationwide. This repair is out of my budget and I think Chrysler needs to recall and repair these vehicles. The horn has gone off in stationary, motion, on a city street and highway and turning. …”
