problem #1

Dec 232003

Bonneville 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100,000 miles
Horn is worthless. Was hit by a party who ran a red light. Applied horn to get their attention, but it would not work. I have tried to use the horn on numerous occassions when about to be hit in a parking lot or on the street, but it never seems to work. Very hard to get to work. Airbag did not deploy even though damage required replacement of front bumper. When getting car repaired also advised that steering column bolts were stripped on one side and sheared off on the other, but not caused by accident. Estimate to fix steering another $500+
