Took my car to Goodyear for a state inspection. My car failed due to the horn not working. They asked if I wanted them to take a look at it, and not being a great mechanic or anything, I said sure. Two hours later they still couldn't figure it out. I told them I had to go to work, so they quit and didn't charge me anything. They suggested I take it to a Ford dealership.
The next day, I went ahead and dropped it off at the nearest one in the early morning, figuring the problem must be pretty complex. Around 5pm, they call and tell me I need a new horn and connector harness.
"You're looking at a total of $451, Mr. Sparechange." I told them no thanks.
Did a simple Google search, turns out it's a common problem on these models. YouTubed a couple of diys, and ordered a new horn. $20.04 and 30 min for install later, it works.
Sheesh!
