Make sure everything is wired up correctly before you leave. Mine wasnt and had to bring it back.

The horn, cruise controls, and the radio/climate controls didnt work after they replaced the wire harness. I think they just forgot to plug them back in.

What dealer did you call? I just got off the phone with Don Rich in Villa Rica and they said 10 minutes to replace. They are out of parts though and supposed to have 10 in the morning.

The Villa Rica dealership is the one I called, but that was last week so maybe they didn't really know at the time?

Hmm that's odd. I will be there in the morning, I'll let you know how long it took.

I have an issue with mine. The dealership replaced the recall parts and now suddenly the airbag light is on and they say a crash sensor and the wiring harness going to the sensor is bad. The system tested fine before it went in for the recall. Strange

Could be something they wired wrong. Half the stuff on my steering wheel stopped working after they did mine. Had to bring it back in. Tell them to fix it ASAP and if it takes longer demand a loaner car.
