Vehicle horn does not work. intermittently works. when horn does not work you can here the relay clicking when horn is pressed but no sound. send that horn is not receiving current. this is a safety concern, for example i was unable to alert vehicle in front of me that was reversing that was unable to see me. we were in a parking structure waiting for a parking spot. the vehicle in front of me found a parking but required to reverse to pull in to designated stall. the large vehicle could not see my small beetle and reversed into me. i honked the gotten but horn would not honk. i was quick enough to set my vehicle in reverse and avoid any damage. after reviewing similar issues with other 2016 vw beetles, this is not an isolated case.
