the air bag light stays on and now my horn doesn't work in my 2000 Chrysler Grand Voyager

better have a tech check that as air bags need an expert - suspect a short in the steering column. replacing air bags is expensive.

call the the dealer, there's a recall on the clock spring.
the clock sprins is a connector between the steering wheel and the colunm, let us know how it went.

Right.
Its a "Recall".
Not a "TSB".
This is a "Free" Repair.
Make Sure you pay "Nothing".

MANUFACTURER: DaimlerChrysler Corporation

NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number : 04V480000 Recall Date : OCT 05, 2004

COMPONENT: Air Bags

Potential Number Of Units Affected : 955344

SUMMARY:

On certain minivans, the driver's air bag may become disabled due to a failure of the clockspring, which is located in the hub of the steering wheel.

CONSEQUENCE:

This condition will manifest itself through illumination of the air bag warning lamp, and could eventually result in a driver's air bag open circuit, if the part is not replaced in a reasonable amount of time.

REMEDY:

Dealers will replace the clockspring assembly on all covered vehicles with 70,000 miles or less. FOR THOSE VEHICLES WITH MORE THAN 70,000 MILES, DaimlerChrysler will offer an extended lifetime warranty under which it will replace the clockspring at no charge if it fails. DaimlerChrysler will also reimburse owners who have paid to have the clockspring replaced on their vehicles. The recall began on October 12, 2004. Owners should contact DaimlerChrysler at 1-800-853-1403.

NOTES:

DaimlerChrysler Recall NO. D17. Customers can contact The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).

there may also be one on the front impac sensors.

Can't remember for sure Mike. Think the "Front Impact "Sensor" recall was for "93-98", and then again "Maybe" in "05'.

seems we do them all the time, i just try to get them done quick, never realy check ro to see year, just go to parts and tell them to give me the part.
all i know is chrysler sure has a lot of recalls, lol

Grunt,

"Your Quote Appears Below"

(Quote) i just try to get them done quick, never realy check ro to see year, just go to parts and tell them to give me the part.

Be careful buddy,
We're talking "RECALL" here.
In other words, "Free To The Customer."

NOT A TSB!

Don't be "GIVING OUT" free "Impact Sensors" to vehicles that "Are Not Part Of The Recall."
Could get the "Boss" (AND SUITS) mad.

Just my two cents "To Help A Brother".

chrysler only sends out the noitces by the vin number, so if they come in with the notics it's in the recall.
chrysler's pretty good about that, when i frist started to work for them, i'd check, but it turned out i was wasting time.
and with chrysler's warrenty times, you cann't afford to waste i second. lol

UNDERSTOOD!

Kind of figured something like that. Just wanted to "BE SURE" you weren't "HANDING" out impact sensors "JUST LIKE THAT"!

NOW:

Those "WONDERFULL MOPAR EGR VALVES",

WELL:

You can give them out for "FREE", because their only worth "A NICKEL" (If That Much).

BTW:

"Belt fed 60" is my "Weapon of choice" as well. (GREAT FOR FUN AND GAMES IN THE RICE FIELDS)

IF UP TO ME?

I'd "Walk" down the "Street" with one.

OOH-RAH

i would have someone check the air bag that is a professional replacing are bags are not cheap. You could also consider calling the dealer.

i carried one and at 5'6" and not quite 120lbs, it was like carring my best friend, could change out a red barrel in 5 seconds.
learned early that carring it got me a lot of respect from the rest of the squad.
i say a prayer for those guys trying to supress with 5.56 over there now, but on the other hand, every body is a ammo bearer.
