Description of the problem	I took the car in as part of the takata inflator recall. Everything in the car was working when i dropped off the car. Now the dealership wants $700 plus to repair the horn, ignition lock, controls on the steering wheel that control the volume and menu buttons on the display panel. These items were working when i dropped off the car. Vwoa has stated due to the age of the car and the mileage, these items are not covered under warranty. They were working when i brought the car to the dealership, momentum volkswagen of clear lake. I dropped the car off on october 16th at 9 am for an 9:15 appointment, they called around 11 am saying the car needed $700 plus to repair the horn, ignition lock, and the buttons on the steering wheel. I wasn't going to pay for it, they were working when i dropped the car off. The dealership contacted management at vw and they said they were not going to pay for it. The service supervisor is calling someone else at the dealership to see about getting the problem resolved. I contacted vw of america customer service at 800-822-8987, talked to kay c., the leadership team at vwoa said because of the age of the car and mileage, these items are not covered under warranty. So it is my fault that the recall takes over 5 years to get to my car, what if i had been in an accident and died due to shards severing my arteries in my neck and i bleed to death in an otherwise beign accident, while waiting for the airbag to be replaced. If i had not taken the car to the dealership for the air bag recall, my steering wheel controls and horn would still be working. So this free replacement recall is costing me three days without a car, and whatever it costs to repair what the dealership broke..
