My air bag light kept coming on and I was told by a dealer that my air bag would not deploy and my car would not pass inspection unless I got it fixed. Which I did and it cost $250.00. My car is a 1999 grand caravan. There was a recall on this, but only up to year 1998. When I wrote to dodge they told me there was nothing they could do, and my emails would not be acknowledged.

What is wrong
On certain minivans, the driver's air bag may become disabled due to a failure of the clockspring, which is located in the hub of the steering wheel.
Risk
This condition will manifest itself through illumination of the air bag warning lamp, and could eventually result in a driver's air bag open circuit, if the part is not replaced in a reasonable amount of time.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the clockspring assembly on all covered vehicles with 70,000 miles or less. For those vehicles with more than 70,000 miles, daimlerchrysler will offer an extended lifetime warranty under which it will replace the clockspring at no charge if it fails. Daimlerchrysler will also reimburse owners who have paid to have the clockspring replaced on their vehicles. The recall began on october 12, 2004. Owners should contact daimlerchrysler at 1‑800‑853‑1403.
