1 Horn Assembly problem

Failure Date: 05/15/2019

There is a problem with the clock spring in the steering wheel. There are several people who have posted on the internet the same problem ( this was how I discovered it was the clock spring). None of the controls on the steering wheel work as well as the horn does not work. When you turn the steering wheel all the way to the left ( I relieve it's to the left) the horn will then work. I find this to be a safety issue since I can not alert another driver using my horn. I'm less concerned about the controls on the steering wheel working. From the research I have completed I am not sure if this problem affects the air bag or not. I believe there is a wire hook up to the air bag.

2 Horn Assembly problem

Failure Date: 11/16/2018

While driving on the high way I was going to use my cruse control and when I pushed it it was not working. After that day all my other buttons on my steering wheel slowly started to stop working. Then while I was driving last night on a city street a car was going to come into my lane while and I went to honk my horn and it no longer worked.

3 Horn Assembly problem

Failure Date: 02/20/2015

The vehicle caught fire while parked overnight in a garage. The entire vehicle was engulfed in smoke and much of the interior driver's side melted with the heat. My family woke in the middle of the night to the sound of the horn continuously blaring. We discovered a smoldering fire inside the car which was extinguished by the fire department. The vehicle was removed from our property and is believed to be a total loss. We later discovered a recently-issued recall for corrosion of the electrical harness below the floor mats, causing a short in the electrical panel - this appears to be the cause of the incident but it is currently under investigation by our insurance company and Nissan north America.
