The first thing is to have the diagnostic fault codes read and recorded. Until we know the exact code number, the best suspect is the clock spring is coming apart. That is a wound-up ribbon cable in a plastic housing under the steering wheel. If that ribbon cable is breaking apart, the horn and cruise control will stop working too.
