Coolant would completely discharge randomly and the plastic harness inside the steering wheel breaks while turning, thus rendering the horn / airbag useless. The harness is a $400+ repair and the coolant system resulted in $2800 in repairs due to a chain effect of problems. It all stemmed from a defect overfill cap and water pump. The coolant discharge occurs on the drivers side wheel-well and could easily cause loss of control. It would be nice to have a functioning air bag if that were to happen.
The consumer was driving approximately 35 mph when another vehicle hit the driver's front. Neither air bag deployed upon impact. There were injuries to driver and passenger. Please provide further information.
