Airbag light comes on intermittently. Dealer determined clockspring assembly needed to be replaced. Consumer states that both dealer and daimler Chrysler refused to replace the part as a warranty item.(customer care at daimler Chrysler had become very belligerant and abusive over the phone) please see reverse side for a continuance of abuse. Consumer is fearing the safety of his family. Wife is main driver, and feels that he should be reimbursed for the expense of the defective part.(after being overcharged for the repair despite having a verbal quote by the service advisor) appel Dodge has failed to return consumers calls to settle the discrepancy in payment. The van is showing no indication of airbag/clockspring failure.

The clock spring that controls the airbag, cruise control and horn fails often.

- Ormond Beach, FL, USA

Clockspring has failed rendering the airbags and horn unusable. This is a safety hazard and other year Dodge Caravan minivans have been recalled. My dealer said that my year minivan is not part of those recalled. I believe this safety component failure needs to be recalled by the manufacturer and replaced.

While traveling 30-40mph air bag light would flash on/off. This has happened for a few weeks. It finally remained on, and horn along with cruise control failed to work. Dealership replaced wires and a sticky clockspring unit.

I have had a recent problem where I just thought that the air bag light was on. I later learned that not only is the air bag light on but the air bag will not deploy if N accident occurs. In addition the horn and cruise control does not work. By searching on the web I have learned from the dealer that this is a common problem in their vehicles. It will cost me over 250 dollars to correct. How can Dodge know that this problem exists and does not tell anyone or have a recall. This is deplorable. I am sure that deaths have occurred because of this and Dodge knows this too. Please let me know what can be done. Thank you. Vince filliben 610-361-8921.

Engine aservice and air bag warning lights indicate a potential safety problem. Dealership /manufacturer has been unable or unwilling to correct the problem.

At least a year ago, my airbag light came on and has stayed on. Approximately the same time, I began having problems with my criuse control. In addition, my horn has quit functioning. I contacted a dealership, and they stated it sounded like the airbag clockspring had gone bad. The part alone was estimated to cost $250. I recently checked the NHTSA site, as see that my van is not the only one with these same problems.
