What owners report
The contact owns a 2023 Chrysler Voyager. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V302000 (AIR BAGS); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The local dealer was contacted, and it was confirmed that the part was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.
The failure came suddenly. One day, while driving, the airbag light illuminated and then was extinguished a few minutes after. The second or third time it on remained lit permanently. I immediately reported to the garage in which I bought the car on occasion. Could find the failure. He asked me to go directly to the Chrysler dealer. The failure has not repaired, even the cruise control and the horn are inoperative. I can no longer take the vehicle. I called the Chrysler dealer in region to talk him about it. He told me that this failure, without any other failure will be charged around 300-350 euros because my car is no longer on safety warranty and it is also not affected by the recall of the Chrysler Voyager for those same failures. The charge is very expensive for me. It is then I try to find help on internet that I came across your website. That is my entire problem. …
In the beginning, it began with the airbag light intermittent views. But quickly, a few kilometers later this light remained lit permanently. At the time, the cruise control works once on three, and then after nothing. The airbag light remains lit continuously, the cruise control does not work, and worse the horn is inoperative. I can no longer take the vehicle. I called the Chrysler dealer in my region who told me that this will be charged at around 300 euros because my vehicle is not affected by the recall of the Chrysler Voyager for those same failures. It is then by searching on the internet I came across your site sorry for my approximate english. I speak better french. Note: I write from france, but my country is not listed bellow, so I am to choose a town and phone number from America to fit the formula.

Chrysler minivan clockspring defect airbag light stays on possibly loosing electrical connection. In fact, on 12/28/03 I was involved in a rear impact car accident and airbag did not deploy, despite the fact that my rear door and bumper had to be replaced at my local Chrysler dealership. I was informed that I was responsible to repair the clockspring. Thankfully, the impact was in the rear where no one was sitting. Had the impact been to the sides, where my grandchildren were sitting, or to the front, I shudder to think of the consequences.
Tl* the contact owns a 2001 Chrysler Voyager. When operating the vehicle, the horn would occasionally stop working and eventually stopped operating permanently. In addition, the air bag sensor intermittently illuminated while operating the vehicle. The sensor permanently remained illuminated after starting the vehicle. The cause of the failures was not diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 105,000. ...updated 10/19/17 the consumer stated the clockspring failed. The vehicle was repaired. Updated 11/1/2017
The horn and cruise control stopped working and the airbag light came on. It would not pass inspection. It happend while in motion and stationary. They said that the clock spring was broken and needed to be replaced. There is a recall on the 1996-1998 models for the broken clockspring but not the 2001. I see lots of comments that this is an issue beyond those model years included in the recall. They need to extend the recall beyond 1998 since this is an issue with more than those 2 years!
