The consumer states that the clock spring is bad and the air bag light stays illuminated, the horn will not work, and the cruise control will not engage. *jb
The specific failure I am experiencing is this: intermittently and randomly (about 50% of my driving time) the airbag light on this instrument panel goes on, the horn won't work, and the cruise control won't work.
Vehicle was not started. However, gear lever will move on its own. Gears move without placing foot on the brake. *ak consumer adds, there is a problem w/airbag, because the light is constantly on which prohibits the horn from working. (she concerned because she has small children)
Airbag light is on, and horn is inoperable. Vehicle has not been examined by dealer.

While driving and without warning vehicle shut off. Mechanic indicated there was a malfunction in engine harness, causing an electrical shortage.
Vehicle experienced an electrical fire, fire department feels fire started at the starter (claim # 16-n134-624).
Air bag light stays illuminated while in motion. Also, horn assembly and cruise control are inoperable. Dealer has been notified.
Clock sping component failed causing deactivation of air bag, horn, and cruise control. I believe this is a design defect and a safety issue and this part should be recalled and the manufacturer should repair free of charge to the consumer.
Airbag light came on the dashboard, and cruise control/ horn went out. Also, tranmission was malfunctioning. When putting it in gear vehicle makes a loud noise. Dealership is aware of problem.
The cost of replacing this part was 282.00 dollars. I do not gfell that an electrical part that is part of the safty equipment should failand not be replaced under waranty.
On the morning of sept 28, 2001, I started my '97 plymouth voyager to begin a vacation trip. After a few minutes with the engine running, I noticed that the air bag warning light stayed illuminated. During the trip, I also discovered that neither the horn nor the cruise control worked. These symptoms appear similar to recall #01v153000..
Ibought the car in feburaury. I brought it back in 3 days with the the van making a noise in it they replaced the serpentene belt. I no longe herd the noise for a little while. When I bought it I was told they would fix the A/C I would have to bring it back in to fix it. I brought it back and they said it was fixed nd it only worked for the drive half way home. I then brought it back for four days while theytook aparrt the dash board and replaced the evaporator. I checked to see if the A/C worked and it did but I turned off due to little gas in the tank. The next time I used it was in april to go to the beach wth friends. It worked going up there and then on the way back it was not working and my van over heated. I then brought it to them and asked them to look at it. They then rigged a fuse to the clutch to keep the fan on at all times so it would not over heat. I felt that they were going to charge me fr it to be repaired for this time it was after the 30 day warranty so there for I was waiting to see if I could get money together to fix it. I then stated having problems with it over heating so I called them afte another mechaniclooked at it and said it was a fire waiting tohappen and things were not put in correctly, he even told them and thy told him to tell me to make an appt. So I called and they told me they could not get it until wed. I explained I had to go out of town and that it was a fire hazard. I then asked if I could bring it in to have him look att it an he said no it would be wed. I tried to have them lok and see if they could come up with a game plan. I then called them yesteday and he said I refusedto bring it inand that is not te case. I told him I was going to bring it to you and e said go a head and then hung up on me.I then called back talked to the owner and he listened temporarly until I told him I used the A/C once he then said I was being dishonest and then at that point I told him he has no right calling me a lier .
Problems started with windshield wipers not functioning properly, then the back up lights didnt work, then the horn quit, then the cruise control and the airbag light came on all the time, now the lock on the side door passenger side is being tempermental. I took it in to dealer today. Kunkels in export, pa.
Air bag light stays on, both horn and cruise control don't work. Probably clock spring? Possible recall.
Air bag light was on, and cruise control was out along with horn. Dealership was contacted.*ak
Horn does not blow in cold weather.
Engine check light comes on due to bad vibration, won't shift into gear, like it's running out of gas.*ak the dealer replaced the oxygen sensor as a possible cause but it wasn't. Then, fuel filter was replaced but it wasn't again. Finally, the #3 spark plug wire was replaced and the problem was solved.
While vehicle was being driven air bags deployed without a collision occurring, cause unknown. Also, in rainy weather conditions water enters vehicle from dash area, causing electrical shortage. *ak the windshield wiper had no gasket along botton. Tire tread separated while traveling. Four sets of brake pads and two sets of rotors faile in two years period.
Engine head gasket had failed, causing engine to lose power on the freeway. Also,there was a complete loss of coolant. Vehicle overheated & battery had failed. Timing belt tensioner & timing belt had excessive wear & needed replacing.
Battery replaced.
