1994 Plymouth Grand Voyager Airbags Problems

MY CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. I HAVE CHECKED ALL THE FUSES. THEY ARE ALL OK. WHEN CONTACTING SEVERAL MECHANIC AND READING ON-LINE FROM OTHER OWNERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEM, IT IS COMMONLY REVEALED THAT THE AIR BAG SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL MAY HAVE GONE BAD WHICH IS NOT UNCOMMON. THE VEHICLE, OTHERWISE IS OPERABLE. I WONDER IF THIS REVELATION IS TRUE, ARE THERE ANY OTHER SERIOUS RISKS THAT COULD BE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS.

CAR WAS RECALLED TO CORRECT AIR BAG LIGHT MALFUNCTION, BUT PRESENTLY THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONTINUED TO COME ON, AND IT SMELLED AS IF SOMETHING ELETRICAL WAS BURNING. MY RADIO WENT OUT, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WOULDN'T COME ON AND THE CAR SIMPLY WOULDNOT EVEN TURN OVER. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED, SITING A FUSE ON 11/23/04. THE SMELL OF BURNING RUBBER OR SOMETHING ELECTRICAL WAS NOTED , THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WENT DIM, LIGHTS APPEARED ON DASH, SPEED WAS REDUCED SO RAPIDLY IT FELT AS IF SOMETHING HAS FALLEN FROM THE BOTTOM OF VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THAT MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PANEL IS SHORTING OUT DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION. PLEASE HELP ME.*AK

THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG ON OUR 1994 PLYMOUTH GRAND VOYAGER DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX 30 MPH. THERE WAS NO COLLISION, ROAD BUMPS OR ANYOTHER PHYSICAL JARRING OF THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO CAUSE FOR THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER (MY WIFE) SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES (BROKEN NOSE, CUT LIPS AND BRUSING) AND SHE WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE SAFELY. FORTUNATELY SHE WAS NOT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. THIS WAS REPORTED TO CHRYSLER, WHO HAS BEEN VERY UNCOOPERATIVE AND RUDE. THE CHRYSLER SPECIAL INVESTIGATIONS FILE NUMBER IS 11586772 (WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM THEM).*AK
