Horn sounding for no apparent reason. . . . Checked online and found that numerous sites carrie information about this issue. Everything from shrunken rubber horn pad to contact inside the horn. Vehicle has never been in frontal collision and bags never deployed. Removed fuse and forgot about it and should have removed relay as other circuts were still open and killed a good closed cell battery. So fuse out, horns disconnected and still looking for relay. Dodge claims no knowledge of issue. . . . Bull jive. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
The consumer stated that horn failed.
