What owners wrote

Horn keeps going off by it self. Now I have no horn and the airbag light keeps coming on. I have checked other web sites and this is a well known issue with the sebring why isn't this on recall? I have been cut off on several occasions where a horn was needed I came very close to be running off the road several times do to the other driver not looking in blind spots where as if I had a horn I could have used it instead of being ran off the road.

September 2008 Crash

Horn goes off by itself. When I unlocked door with remote horn started to blow and would stop when steering wheel was pressed and then start up again for no reason. This is the second time first time was when I bought the car used fuse had been pulled. Airbag section with horn was replaced with used part. This worked well for 1 1/2 years now it is happening again.
