Clock springs are not working properly and horn/cruise control have gone out due to this default. Contacted dealer, and dealer was not willing to do anything. The consumer's insurance would not pay for the clock spring replacement because they claim it was the manufacturing defect.

Horn/cruise control worked intermittently, then failed. I now understand the air bags were on that circuit as well, but I had no way of checking that at the time, and the garage did not give me any indication that this failure was dangerous. Please force them to fix these things on other Chrysler mini-vans beofre someone gets seriously hurt.
