The steering column assembly contains electrical connections to the driver's airbag module housed in a spiral cable assembly, which includes a flexible flat cable (ffc). due to the shape and location of the ffc's retainer, the ffc could become damaged when the steering wheel is turned. while driving i noticed my horn quit working and my airbag warning came on and i know there is already a recall for the spiral cable assembly but my vin # is not included in the recall.

60,000 miles. three years ago the airbag light came on. we brought it and paid for diagnostics but no answers. now the check engine light and track off are lighting (not related to first issue) and the truck is in slowdown mode. we replaced the gas-cap but it didn't fix the issue. disappointed in what used to be a quality company.
