Defective clockspring that would light up "airbag" light on dash but, only when turning to the left. This condition, I was told by the dealer, disabled my airbag. The dealer left it up to me to decide if I want to replace this defective part or, drive the vehicle without the protection of the airbag. Chrysler customer assistance only recommended I have vehicle serviced. Writes stacie perry, senior staff representative daimler Chrysler customer assistance center;" additionally, daimler Chrysler recommends that you have the repair performed at your local daimler Chrysler dealership. " when I responded to the daimler Chrysler customer assistance center with the question; ". . . It is safe to drive with the potential of not having my airbag deploy in the event of an accident. Is that correct?" their response was, "again, if something is malfunctioning on your vehicle, daimler Chrysler strongly recommends that you have it repaired. " this language, in my opinion, is not strong enough for me to fork over 231. 00 dollars for a repair that should not be necessary. The owners manual states that the airbag is designed to be maintenance free. Considering the fact that previous model year vehicles exhibited the same problem, I would suggest that Chrysler has a known problem.
Clockspring has failed, causing airbag and horn to be inoperative. Dealer notified.
I purchased a used 1999 Plymouth Voyager. When I took it to a dealer in carlsbad, CA. Bob baker, I asked about two problems I have with it. The horn doesn't honk, and the air bay light stays on all the time. I was told they'd be fixed free. When they called regarding other repairs, they said the items wouldn't be fixed free, that my particular 1999 Plymouth Voyager wasn't included in a recall. I objected and also found the repair costs expensive for me, and I was told to go ahead and pay to have it fixed, that "there will be a recall coming up and when it does I can show the receipts and get a refund. " why are some 1999 included and others not, when they have the same problems others are fixed for under recall? also the low fuel bell rings after you fill the tank until the tank level gets down to about 3/4 tank. ( it does ring when the fuel is low, too). I want my horn fixed, it's an important safety feature. Also the light "service engine soon" came on, and I just had a tune up, etc. I took the vehicle in to a repair shop because the dealership costs so much and it cost me $58. 00 to find out that the gas cap wasn't sealing properly. The new cap I bought is imprinted with information about it having to be placed on properly. This new cap I believe is imprinted this way because of a problem that came up. I am disgusted and "broke" after having to pay for such a diagnosis and then 15. 65 for the new cap.
Consumer was driving on a winding road doing the speed limit when another vehicle pulled out in front and caused a collision. Consumer's vehicle t-boned the other vehicle. In a delayed reaction, the air bags deployed. This caused driver to sustain major chest injuries. Also, two other passenger's sustained injuries.
The horn no longer worked, due to possible clock spring failure.
I heard on the news that failure of the airbag/horn/cruise control mechanism has been reported on this vehicle and that no recall had yet been determined. I experienced the same failure. To date, only the horn has been repaired but the dealership inform.
I was at a stop and was hit head on by a midsize sedan traveling at about 40 mph and neither airbag deployed. The damage to my car was over 7000 dollars and the other vehicle was totaled.
