What the crap?!?!?!

Ok, so I got my 1996 Volvo 850GLT back from the dealer last weekend after getting the AC repaired, and to have the "check engine" light looked at. Just now I wanted to go to the grocery store, and as soon as I started to drive down the street the horn went off like crazy, completely randomly . It seemed to honk more often when I pressed the gas. Anyone got any ideas on what is goin on? Or do I have a stupid volvo repairman .

This pisses me off, my parents dropped around $1200 on getting these repairs done, dammit.

Yeah continue to annoy the repairman until something is done about it.

In the shed
clearly a dodge job, always get a car serviced either by a dealership or someone you trust implicitly.

Pull it into the garage and just rev the engine -that is if you still think it seems somehow linked to the gas pedal. He won't ignore you for very long with a horn blaring inside his garage.
