I first notice just my airbag light came on, then my noticed my horn wasn't working, and checked my cruise control also out. When we contacted the dealer (chris in service) he knew exactly what it was and rattled off what needed to be replaced on the spot (sight unseen). We find this to be highly unusual as we have dealt with this dealership for years and years. We read that you were investigating this same problem today via wallstreet journal and decided to let you all know we had the same problem you were investigating. Contact us if needed... Feel free. We appreciate the job you do!!
