DUE TO PLACEMENT OF DRIVER AIRBAG THE HORN BUTTONS ARE DIFFICULT TO USE WHEN TRYING TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS THAT SUDDENLY VEER INTO MY LANE. SEVERAL COWORKER THAT DRIVE SIMILAR VEHICLES HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE HORN BUTTONS ARE AT 3 OCLOCK AND 9 OCLOCK, THEIR SIZE IS ABOUT 1 INCH BY 5/8 INCH. WITH THE SIZE AND PLACEMENT OF THE HORN BUTTONS IN A HURRY MOST TIMES THE AIRBAG IS HIT RATHER THAN THE HORN.*AK

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE WINDSHIELD LEAKS ON THIS MODEL STYLE AND THE WATER RUNS DOWN TO THE GEM MODULE AND FUSE BOX CAUSING THE GEM MODULE TO SHORT OUT AND THE ELECTRONICS DO WHAT EVER THEY WANT TO. THE TRUCK WILL START ON ITS OWN EVEN IF OFF OR RUNNING AND DRIVING WITH THE STARTER ENGAGING. WINDOWS ROLL DOWN THE ALARM ACTIVATES RADIO COMES ON ALL THE ELECTRONICS COME ON AT THERE OWN EVEN WHEN PARKED WITH THE ENGINE OFF AND THE KEY REMOVED. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FROM MY RESEARCH TO TENS OF THOUSANDS OF THESE TRUCKS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO THE CAR CAN EVEN ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION AS WELL AS IT CAN CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING AS IT HAS WITH MYSELF. THIS PART IS VERY EXPENSIVE AND THE LEAK IS VERY COMMON. *TR
