“I took my 2000 Chrysler mini van to the conyer, ga dealership to find out why my airbag light came on and my horn stopped working and I was told by the service man that I would be charge $89.00 just for them to look at the problem. I just recently found out that this is a major problem with all mini vans dating back several years ago. I was almost hit by another vehicle because my horn in my van wasn't working. This is a safety issue and the manufacturer should issue a immediate recall before someone gets kill.”
NHTSA complaint #10160091, filed 2006-06, 129,880 miles“I have a 2000 Chrysler Town And Country limited all wheel drive mini van. I brought the van in for service on june 30th because the airbag light was staying on , also nothing was working on the steering wheel. The radio controls, the cruise control, the horn, and I presume the airbag. The dealer is charging me $500.00 to replace the clock spring in the steering wheel. This is a electronic control box that operates everything in the steering wheel. There should be a recall on this part.”
