The horn stopped working on this past Saturday, January 30, 2009 - again. This must be the sixth time I had the horn not working. I have brought it in to the dealer endless times because the horns are completely defective. I have owned cars my entire life and never had this trouble with a car in my entire life.

I have had at least 2 previous horns put into my 2005 Sentra four door car. This latest one has not been in that long and it does not work. It gives a beep and then it is gone. I need a horn that works in congested New Jersey. This is unacceptable. I waste my time going there and I don't think the dealership is doing anything at all to correct this issue.

Lost horn for third time. A horn is safety equipment. The Nissan Sentra I own seems to be falling apart at 20,000 miles. I had horn trouble, brakes squeak like mad, windows squeak when up and down - hardly go up and down, another safety issue.
