2000 Dodge Caravan. Consumer states airbag light intermittently stays illuminated the consumer also stated when the air bag light illuminated, the horn did not work. The consumer complied with the recall. However, the dealer informed her the clockspring was not the reason the air bag light remained on and there was no problem with the clockspring. The consumer stated she was not given any paperwork on the vehicle stating the clockspring was in working order. When the consumer went to an auto repair shop six months later, it was determined the clockspring was bad.

The horn and cruise control suddenly stopped working and the air bag light came on and wouldn't go off. I went online to see to repair it, and discovered that there had been a recall in 2005 for this problem with doge Caravans. I never received a recall notice and the dealer told me I have to pay for the repairs. Is there anything that you can do?.

1) driving vehicle on vacation. 2) air bag light came on and horn failed to operate. 3) clockspring in vehicle needed to be replaced. (old clockspring is available).

Air bag light came on intermittently about three weeks ago. Two days later, the air bag light went on and stayed on. I then noticed that the horn and the cruise control did not work on the steering column, however, the horn operates when using the keyless entry system. I called a Dodge dealership on may 24, 2004 and was told that the problem was most likely a bad clock spring that needed replacement. The work requires removal of the steering wheel. I researched this clock spring problem on the internet and it became apparent that clock spring replacment on certain Jeep and Chrysler models is fairly common. Some models have been recalled because of the clock spring problem.

I own a Dodge Caravan 2000. The airbag light came on and the horn stopped working. I asked the service advisor at koon's Ford (falls church, va 703. 241. 1000, dealer code 35-44341) if this was normal and they said this was the first car they had seen with these problems (clockspring). I researched this on the internet and I found that 5% of all 1996~2000 Caravan models have had the clockspring replaced because of these problems at the cost of the consumer. I believe this is a safety issue, that the 1996-2000 Dodge Caravan should be recalled and the clockspring mechanism should be repaired free of charge. Please let me know if I can provide further information. Thank you for your attention to this important safety problem.
