IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, THE HORN STARTED GOING OFF AND AND WOULDN'T STOP UNTIL THE BATTERIES WERE DISCONNECTED. TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY COULDN'T REENACT THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID THAT THE AIR BAG EXPANDS AND CAN PUSH ON THE HORN. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IS REMOVE THE AIR BAG WHICH IS BEHIND THE HORN TO FIX WHATEVER THE PROBLEM IS. WE WERE TOLD THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT. I THINK THIS IS A FORD ISSUE AND A HORN IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A VERY MUCH NEEDED PART OF A VEHICLE. SO THEY TOOK THE FUSE OUT OF THE HORN SO THE HORN WOULDN'T BLARE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. TRIED PUTTING THE FUSE BACK IN WHEN THE TEMPERATURE ISN'T COLD, BUT THE HORN IMMEDIATELY STARTS TO BLARE AND WON'T STOP. THEREFORE, THE TRUCK HAS NO HORN. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE.

CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT DISENGAGE. WHEN MY HUSBAND PRESSED THE BRAKES, THE CAR SPED UP. WE HAD TO PASS 5 VEHICLES, BARELY ENOUGH ROOM. HE FINALLY TURNED THE MOTOR OFF AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE FREEWAY (I70). BUT FOR THE GRACE NOT GOD, WE WOULD HAVE DIED OF INJURED OURSELVES AND OTHERS. BRAKES SHOULD NEVER MAKE YOUR CAR SPEED UP.
