 Description of the problemAs i was turning the steering wheel with the vehicle in motion, i heard a clicking sound and then a snap. The airbag light immediately came on and all electronic controls on the steering wheel and the horn ceased to work. I had the cover put on based on the previous recall, which obviously failed. I took it into the dealership and after a hard fight, had them replace the clock spring. They refuse to acknowledge that the issue with the horn was related to this; however, i have read several other complaints indicating the same issue. Currently, they have not been able to repair my horn.
