Horn Assembly problems of the 1996 Plymouth Grand Voyager - part 1

Numerour repeated electrical problems. Wipers, internal systems, radio, horn, windows, lights fail. Have been to dealer, paid for over $250 of repairs. Problem persists; dealer will not do anything unless the problem happens in front of them. Fear safety problems.

The component failure was noticed by the airbag light coming on and the horn not working. A clicking noise could be heard in the steering column and since I did not know the potential severity of the problem requested the dealer to service it. I was not made aware that this part controlled the functional of the vehicles safety provisions like the air bag/ and horn. Dt.

This is definitely a safety defect as the horn doesn't work at all! Chrysler/Plymouth says is isn't a safety defect. How can this be, when you can't use the horn, the air bag won't work. That's not a safety defect?! the average cost for this repair is $250 - ridiculous! Chrysler to date has sold over 124,511 replacement parts for this clockspring assembly. I would say this is quite a profit for a defective part. Again, I think this is definitely a safety defect and Chrysler should recall it! I'm hoping you can help with this problem. Thanks!.
