Four problems related to air bag have been reported for the 1999 Dodge Intrepid. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Airbag, horn and cruise control not functional due to clock spring.
This vehicle has been in the dealer 4 times and has 1500 miles. The major problem, was a major water leak or leaks. The vehicle has been out of service for a total of 20 days. After finding a huge puddle on the driver's side floor, dealer was contacted, and vehicle was taken apart inside and out. After dealer performed recommended repairs per technical service bulletin(980710232998), vehicle still leaked. Dealer "sealed" every screw, grommet, and wire that entered firewall. After sending car through car wash six times, vehicle appeared leak-free. It remains to be seen if the many leaks in vehicle have actually been corrected since dealer could not pinpoint the location of any leak.
While driving at 25/30 mph air bag clockspring module failed. This resulted in air bag, horn, and cruise control malfunctioning. Dealership replaced the clockspring.
Driver's side seat back unexpectedly reclined while driving. As a result, driver's foot hit accelerator pedal and vehicle went into an intersection, hitting another vehicle. None of the airbags deployed.
