| Description of the problem | Horn sticks loud and remains on for about one minute. Suspect bracket holding airbag needs new isolation "o" rings which, over time, allow horn to touch bracket completing horn relay circuit. Could cause other cars to swerve into traffic. Specifically, i was stopped for a 4 way stop sign, another car approached at such a speed that i saw she was going to stop and she didn't. I watched her blow by and got behind her and blew the horn but the horn stayed on. The lady stopped and i told her (she was a realtor going to a showing) she missed the stop. As i went on my way the horn quit. Total time 30-45 seconds. Contacting dealer for repair estimate. |
