Air Bag Light On problems of the 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager

Air bag light stays on and has since first purchased, horn has not worked for about 8 months, cruise control quit working 3 months ago. Reading other complaints it appears there was a recall stating the problem is with the column clock spring. If I could receive a recall for the manufacturer to just provide a replacement column clock spring my nephew would place it on the van.

The consumer received a recall notice # 04v480000. The consumer took the vehicle to get it serviced. When leaving the dealer, she noticed the airbag light was still on. The dealer could not determine the problem and told her to schedule an appointment. The dealer told the consumer the inspection would be free of charge. But when scheduling the appointment, she was told that it would be a fee.

The air bag light lit up, and shortly afterwards, the cruise control and horn stopped working. The dealer advisor called me and said that the clock spring would have to be replaced. A couple hours later, he called me and informed me that the wires in the airbag had overheated and the entire air bag assembly would now have to be replaced. The company reimbursed me last month for the clock spring, which they said was recalled. However, I feel that I should also be reimbursed for the airbag assembly, since it was connected to the clockspring. This is a major safety issue that has affected many other consumers with this same vehicle. The dealer advisor gave us the clock spring as we requested, but said that they could not give us the air bag, since it needed to be sent to Chrysler for failure analysis.

I have a 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager. There is couple of problems with my air bag light, horn, and cruse. After blinking of air bag light, horn and cruse control are not working. Air bag light is on and off interminttenly.

(1) normal operation of vehicle led to failure(s) [ I count each time the airbag light comes on when it is not supposed to as a separate failure-my count is approximate]. (2) the clock spring assembly in my minivan operates intermittently and thus my airbag (so I'm told) and horn also operate intermittently. I've had some close calls becase the horn does not work; thankfully I've not needed the airbag to deploy. (3) I learned today, to the cost of a diagnostic charge, that the dealer and manufacturer are unwilling to repair under recall b24 as my Chrysler voyager is a 1999 model.

Air bag light stays on, horn doesn't work, cruise control not working also.

Airbag light constant illumination, along with horn/pwr. Steering failure. This is the same defect that was recalled in earlier year models (Plymouth Grand Voyager) through 1998, however mine is a 1999 and although exhibets same failure/defect, is not covered. This is reported to be a defect related to an "open circuit" clockspring. See also NHTSA action # rq04001, odi investigation ea01-007, safety recall # 02v-293, technical service bulletin # 0801102, and technical svce. Bulletin #0801001, there has not yet been an accident or incident, however it is unacceptable that such a defect exists and that the manufacturer is aware of it, however will not do anything about it. This is clearly a major safety defect and is not the fault of the operator, nor is it a maintenance issue.

Air bag light constantly on, horn failed. Clock spring was replaced. I did save the old clock spring and it is available if you want it.

Horn started beeping by itself, then stayed on continuously. Dealer said it was a defective airbag assembly. I called Chrysler to complain and they agreed to pay all but $150 of the $607 bill. I don't know if this is part of the clockspring assembly problems or not. We have not noticed any problem with the airbag light or cruise control.

Airbag light comes on intermittently. Clock spring being replaced today at a cost of $220. Was told there was a recall on previous year voyagers with same problem, but mine is not covered. Looking at the amount of complaints regarding this, and the current open investigation, I believe crysler needs to include this in the recall.

My airbag light was illuminated and I lost the use of my horn and cruise control.

The air bag light came on and would not turn off. Also, the horn and cruise control were disabled.

Head gasket was found to be leaking coolant. Dealership estimated 900. 00 plus the cost of parts. My husband then decided to buy the kit from them for 109. 00 and proceed to repair it himself. After sitting for 9 days it is almost finished. This van only has 67,000 miles. The clock spring was also replaced earlier in the year as it stopped working causing the airbag light to stay on, the horn not to work, and the cruise control not to work.

1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager se - airbag light came on at 72000 miles. I found that daimler-Chrysler had a safety recall on 1996-1998 Plymouth vans because the clockspring was not installed properly in the steering column. Causing the airbag to become inoperable, the horn and cruise control to also stop working. I found on a Plymouth forum that many other 1999 van owners have had the same problems. When I called Chrysler, they said the recall did not cover the 1999 van and that they would not extend the safety recall.

My vehicle has the same issue noted in recall#02v293000 which is the clock spring failure causing the air bag light to remain illuminated, the horn/air bag and cruise control to be unoperable. The Chrysler dealer will not fix under warranty as the recall is for Plymouth Grand Voyager up to model year 1998. I do not understand why the recall does not extend to the 1999 models as the same issue is apparent as reported by several consumers on this site and I'm sure it has not been reported by even more. I consider this a serious safety issue that should be taken seriously by Chrysler and recalled regardless of year/mileage.

Consumer states that the airbag light came on and stayed on all day. Consumer had the vehicle diagnosed by a dealership and they had to replace the clock springs in the air bags, if springs were not replaced it would of caused the air bag to malfunction.
