Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
While backing out of parking space driver's airbag deployed. No injury.
Airbag light came on, and horn/cruise control stopped working. Dealer determined clock spring assembly needed to be replaced.
Clock sping is a wire harness located in the steering column that controls the driver side air bag, horn & cruise contol . When damaged from no fault on part of the driver the horn will not work the air bag will not deploy when needed or might deploy without any impact . I feel that this is a safty defect that should be repaired by the manufacturer at no cost to the consumer.
My girl friend and I wher voming home from portland,me on the maine turnpike and she started getting tired so she pulls in to the next rest area and I took over driving . As I started to gain speed turning out of the rest area on to the turnpike I felt the steering wheel catch up and I had to give the steering wheel a good jurk to get the steering wheel to streghten up . Then I heard a snap abd the air bag light came on and I lost my horn and cruise control.when we got home the next day I took the air bag out for fear it might go off.
