1 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 09/16/2019

Air bag light constantly on, no horn no cruise control no radio control. Went to dealer for recall on airbag steering wheel clock spring and was told I would have to pay for diagnostic and also pay for part " in case it was not covered. This is not how a safety recall should be performed to my understanding.

5 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 09/03/2003

My 1999 Chrysler town and country's horn stopped working and the airbag light went on. My 3rd party mechanic said he has seen this happen numerous times. The van has 61000 miles. I took it to a Chrysler dealer who said it was not covered under a recall. It cost me $250. They said it was the clock spring. Seems like a problem that stops the horn and the airbags from working would generate a recall.
