11 Cruise Control problem

Failure Date: 09/01/2000

I recently heard a news report on a local radio station that the government has launched an investigation into the combined failure of the air bag system, cruise control and horn on approx 3 million Mini vans. Unfortunately, I suspect my van currently has this same problem. It has not been examined by my Chrysler dealer although I did contact them and they advised they were unaware of this type of problem and claimed to have not received any report from Chrysler about this. I also called Chrysler customer assistance and they too were "unaware" of any problems and simply documented my concern. I would like to know if Chrysler is indeed aware of multiple problems with this same failure or are they avoiding admitting to the investigation. I was quite suprised to read in my paper today about the investigation (ea01007) and how the symptems matched mine exactly. About 6 months ago, the air bag light illuminated apon start up and now stays on for the full duration of the drive. A few weeks after that, the cruise control began a bizzare on again, off again pattern. Each time you started the car, it was a crap shoot to see if cruise would be working. A few weeks after that, we noticed the horn no longer works. I'm leary of bringing the vehicle in for "diagnostics" considering some of the repair costs I've heard, associated with air bag system repairs. I would like to be advised as to what chryslers response was and is regarding your announced investigation. Thank you.
