THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND THE HORN DOES NOT FUNCTION. I WAS TOLD THAT IT IS SOME TYPE OF A CLOCK SPRING THAT IS MOUNTED UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL. MY PARENTS HAD A 1996 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN THAT HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT AND IT WAS FIXED, BUT I CANNOT FIND A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE WHICH IS ALSO MADE BY CHRYSLER JUST ONE YEAR OLDER. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT IS UNIQUE TO CHRYSLER. I OWN A 1995 DODGE RAM3500. *TR
