problem #1

Achieva

  • miles
Horn sounded for 45" then blew fuse and 1-F-note. Replaced fuse, F-note and both regulators ($125). 2 weeks later, at highway speed, horn started blowing until I pulled over and removed fuse. Dealership indicates wiring problem. Brakes bounce and create loud thumping noise at low speeds, had both rotors replaced and rear drums scraped. Problem still exists daily.
