Extensive leaking from the windshield area that is causing a significant amount of water to flood the passenger floorboard and the middle console where the screen for the radio, ac/heating control, and navigation system is. The lights on the middle console screen have become wet and are now blinking. The radio and the ac/heating screen is not allowing for any adjustments. The airbag light is now on the driver's console screen. The safety concerns due to the leaking of the windshield or the seals around the windshield would be an sudden loss of vehicle power while driving.

The air bag system light came on. Dealer says repair requires splicing into passive restraint system wiring to repair. To me seems unacceptable as a method of repair as the passive restraint system saves lives. As a former highway patrolman for California I see what airbags do to save lives and the fact that ford refuses to help with a passive restraint system on a vehicle I just purchased seems as if they want my family endanger. And they want me to pay for a splice wire job which puts my family at a higher risk of injury or death. Ford has had vehicle for two weeks and their rectification to the issue is splice the wires se attached email from dealership

Air bag light comes on intermittently. Current mileage 62,094. Noted 21 prior complaints on your site. Brought to dealer who told me the problem was with a wire harness failure. None of the safety air bags will operate/deploy when this light is on. A faulty harness that had failed will put me and my passengers in serious jeopardy of injury or death in the event of an accident. This diagnosis cost me $149 only to find out it would cost hundreds of dollars more to have the problem fixed. Internet research reveals this problem was addressed in a 2016 technical bulletin 16-0001; Code B141B. We purchased this vehicle as a certified pre-owned vehicle after Ford issued the technical bulletin. No mention of Ford's internal bulletin was made by the dealer at the time of my purchase. Ford has been aware of this problem for years. According to the dealership technician there is no formal recall to have this manufacturing defect corrected by Ford at no cost to the purchaser of the vehicle. Didn't fully functional air bags come as part of my certified pre-owned purchase? I expect the manufacturer's safety equipment to be fully functional. Please review 2015 Explorer Owner's Manual as follows: Child Safety (pages 18-37), Safety Belts (pages 38-48) Personal Safety System (page 49) and Supplementary Restraints System (pages 50-61) with particular attention to page 49 bearing in mind that NONE of these safety features work when the air bag light is on. What good are safety features that are disabled by a manufacturing defect in the wiring harness? Ford has not only disappointed its customers, it has put them in serious jeopardy when using their product. Your rating system notes Crash, Fire, Injuries and Deaths. Do not wait for a positive notation in any of these categories before you act on safety recommendations, including a mandated recall, which is your primary tool for preventing future civil transportation accidents.

My SRS air bag light came on intermittently and is now on all the time. A internet search showed many years of explorer also have this problem. It appears MANY owners are having this same safety problem and Ford is charging full price for repair. CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN AIR BAGS ARE NOT WORKING. A RECALL IS NEEDED!

Driver side air bag light on.

The contact owns a 2015 Ford Explorer. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and was referred to an authorized dealer. The local authorized dealer was contacted and made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not yet diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

OUR INSTRUMENT PANEL AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON INTERMITTENTLY SINCE 2026. FORD WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE AN ISSUE UNTIL MARCH 27, 2021. THE WARNING LIGHT HAS REMAINED ILLUMINATED WHILE IN THE REPAIR SHOP. THEY FOUND A FAULT CODE AND IT IS ATTRIBUTED TO TSB 16-0001. WE ARE NOW RESPONSIBLE FOR AN ALMOST $1,000 REPAIR BILL ($150 DIAGNOSIS CHARGE AND $800+ REPAIR). THE REPAIR IS DUE TO FAULTY WIRING CONNECTIONS. OUR AIRBAGS ARE NOW SUPPOSEDLY INOPERABLE.

Mileage: 65,237

OUR AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO GORDIE BOUCHER FORD IN JANESVILLE WI FOR REPAIRS. THE ENTIRE AIR BAG SYSTEM WILL NOT WORK IF THIS LIGHT IS ON. FORD KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED IF YOU SEARCH THE INTERNET. A COMMON PROBLEM THAT REQUIRES A WIRING HARNESS TO BE REPLACED DUE TO A FRAYED WIRE. THE COST TO REPAIR THIS IS $1200. I DID HAVE THE REPAIR DONE BECAUSE WITHOUT IT I WOULD HAVE NO WORKING AIRBAGS ON MY VEHICLE. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE THAT FORD IS AWARE OF AND SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY RECALLED. I DID REQUEST THE OLD WIRING HARNESS IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD NEED TO HELP GET THIS SAFETY RECALL STARTED. I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR MY EXPENSES.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON 2015 EXPLORER CAME ON (HAS BEEN SOME TIME). TOOK TO DEALER SEVERAL YEARS AGO AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE, WOULD REQUIRE TRACING DOWN WIRING COSTING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND WAS NOT WORTH US DOING. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW A DEALER (FORD) CAN DISMISS THIS SAFETY ISSUE

FRAYED WIRING UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE SECOND ROW SEATING. THIS IS CAUSING THE AIRBAG LIGHT TO BE ON AND WILL NOT ALLOW THAT AIRBAG TO DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT. FORD IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT IT IS A COMMON ISSUE THAT THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSES IT. COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR A FAMILY VEHICLE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE AND THE MANUFACTURER NOT TAKE CARE OF IT. WE DO NOT BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE I SAFE TO TRANSPORT OR HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE BACK SEAT NOW.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON ON THE DISPLAY. TOOK IT IN FOR DIAGNOSTICS AND IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A WIRE HARNESS THAT NEEDS REPLACING, UNTIL ALMOST 900 DOLLARS IS SPENT TO HAVE THE WIRE HARNESS REPLACED ALL AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE ARE INACTIVE. THIS IS AN ISSUE NUMEROUS FORD EXPLORER ISSUES FACE AND IT IS PRETTY CLOSE TO BEING HELD HOSTAGE BY FORD. SEATS AND CARPETING HAVE TO BE REMOVED FOR THE WIRE HARNESS TO BE ACCESSED, THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AT BEST AS USERS CAN'T REALLY ACCESS IT SO HOW COULD THEY HARM THE SYSTEM? IT IS ABSURD THAT TO HAVE WORKING AIRBAGS IN OUR VEHICLE WE HAVE TO SPEND ANYTHING IF WE DIDN'T COMMIT ANY ERROR, NOR IS THERE ANY REAL PROTECTION IF IT WERE TO HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS IS QUITE A LARGE SAFETY CONCERN, I'VE SEEN COUNTLESS COMPLAINTS ONLINE WITH THIS ISSUE AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT FORD 'WE HAVE PEOPLE COME IN FOR THIS ALL THE TIME'.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AROUND 58,000 MILES. GOT IT DIAGNOSED BY MAC HAIK FORD PASADENA. DEALER SAID IT WAS AN ISSUE IN THE AIRBAG WIRING HARNESS UNDER THE REAR SEATS AND FALLS UNDER TSB 16-0001. THE AIR BAGS THROUGHOUT THE CAR WILL NOT DEPLOY BECAUSE OF THIS MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT SHUT OFF..WENT TO DEALER ... IT WAS DEFECTIVE WIRING PLUG UNDER 2ND ROW SEAT...$1059.00 TO REPAIR. THE AIR BAG WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT IT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MANY YEARS OF FORD EXPLORER. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM !!!! LIGHT STAYS ON WHETHER THE CAR IS MOVING OR NOT

Mileage: 60,000

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER DOING EXTENSIVE RESEARCH I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE WIRING AND FAULTY CONNECTORS. AFTER WIGGLING WIRES THE LIGHT GOES OFF. IT EVENTUALLY COMES BACK ON, THEN REPEAT THE PROCESS.. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH THE LIGHT ON.

Mileage: 70,000

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT TURNED IN AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THE ISSUE IS A SHORTED CONNECTOR FOR THE REAR AND THAT THE AIRBAGS WOULD FAIL TO DEPLOY. THE LIGHT TURNS ON AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE IS STARTED AND NEVER TURNS OFF. THE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR ABOUT THREE MONTHS BUT NO TECHNICIANS HAVE BEEN AVAILABLE TO FIND THE CAUSE.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND WON;T GO OFF SO I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE BACK AIR BAGS WIRE WERE LOOSE AND IT WOULD COST ME $600.00 TO CONNECT THEM BACK. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS VEH. IN 2016 WHEN IT HAD 17,000 MILES ON IT. WITHIN 2 WEEKS I GOT A WARNING LIGHT FOR THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE SENSOR GIVING TROUBLE WAS IN THE SEAT BELT AIRBAG FOR THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT. I WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY FOR TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN TSB-0001 PUBLISHED JANUARY, 2016. I HAVE HAD TROUBLE OFF AND ON EVER SINCE WITH THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT. IT WOULD STAY ON FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THEN GO OFF. I HAD THE DEALER CHECK IT AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM WITHOUT THE LIGHT BEING ON. THIS WEEK IT STAYED ON SO I HAD THE DEALER CHECK IT. IT HAD THE CODE B141B WHICH WAS THE SAME CODE REPAIRED IN 2016. SINCE THE REPAIR WAS WARRANTEED FOR 12 MONTHS THE DEALER WANTS $797 TO FIX THE CURRENT ISSUE, WHICH IS THE SAME ONE FROM 2016. I VERY SELDOM USE THE BACK SEAT AS I HAVE NO CHILDREN IN MY HOUSE. I WOULD RATHER NOT SPEND THAT MONEY, SINCE I AM RETIRED, BUT IF I DON'T GET IT FIXED ALL OF THE OTHER AIR BAGS IN THE VEHICLE WILL NOT WORK. I CONFIRMED WITH A SERVICE ADVISOR THAT NONE OF THE AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE WOULD DEPLOY IF THAT LIGHT IS ON. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS A WAY TO BY-PASS IT IN THE SYSTEM SO THE LIGHT WOULD GO OFF AND HE SAID IT IS A FMVSS THAT COULD NOT BE MODIFIED AND MUST BE FIXED THE RIGHT WAY. I FEEL LIKE I AM BEING HELD HOSTAGE IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE UNLESS I PAY THE $797 TO GET IT FIXED (AGAIN).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EXPLORER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE RODEO FORD LOCATED AT (13680 W. TEST DRIVE, GOODYEAR, AZ 85338, (623)298-3900) WHO NOTICED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WAS A PINCHED WIRE UNDERNEATH THE REAR SEAT OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH WOULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO FAIL TO DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE HOWEVER, NO ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT TURNS ON FOR NO REASON

AIRBAG LIGHT STAYING ON. DEALER DIAGNOSED REAR SEAT ISSUE AND $911.00 TO REPAIR. FORD ISSUED TSB 16-0001 DUE TO IT BEING A COMMON PROBLEM. DUE TO THE HIGH COST OF REPAIR SOME CUSTOMERS DO NOT HAVE THE REPAIR COMPLETED RESULTING IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION. SINCE THIS INVOLVES AN IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE A MANDATORY RECALL SHOULD BE REQUIRED SO THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT CAN BE RESOLVED.

Mileage: 66,000

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WITHOUT WARNING OR INCIDENT (NO ACCIDENT OR IMPACT, JUST STARTED MY CAR ONE DAY AND THE LIGHT STAYED ON). PER RESEARCH DONE ONLINE WITH SAME WARNING LIGHT, MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE, ISSUE APPEARED TO BE WITH THE REAR/2ND ROW SEAT BELT AIRBAGS DISENGAGING AND THIS CAUSES NONE OF THE AIRBAGS TO WORK IN THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. AT THE TIME THE LIGHT INITIALLY CAME ON I HAD ABOUT 72K MILES ON MY CAR, AND IT APPEARS THIS IS ABOUT THE SAME MILEAGE OF ALL OTHER EXPLORER OWNERS WITH THIS ISSUE. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE FOR THE LIGHT AND INCURRED REPAIRS TOTALING JUST UNDER $1,000 TO HAVE THE PARTS REPLACED AND THE AIRBAGS FUNCTION AGAIN. THE FACT THAT I DID NOTHING (OTHER THAN TURN ON MY CAR WHEN IT WAS APPROACHING THE 70-75K MILEAGE MARK) TO CAUSE MALFUNCTION OF THE AIRBAGS BUT HAD TO PAY $1,000 TO FIX IT AND HAVE AIRBAGS WORK IN MY CAR IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT IS DISAPPOINTING. FORD NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS, IT'S UNACCEPTABLE TO HAVE OWNER AND PASSENGER SAFETY COMPROMISED THROUGH NO FAULT OF THE OWNER, AND HAVE TO INCUR COSTLY REPAIRS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. I KEPT MY RECEIPTS AVAILABLE TO PROVE CAUSE AND COST OF AIRBAG LIGHT ISSUE.

Mileage: 72,000

AIRBAG SENSOR CAME ON AT ABOUT 55,000 MILES. WENT TO DEALER AND THEY PUT ON COMPUTER; TOLD IT IS TSB 16-0001. DEALER SUGGESTED TO REPLACE THE AIRBAG HARNESS, WITH CONNECTORS REPLACED FOR $963.17, B/C WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 60,000 MILES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS NONE OF THE AIRBAGS IN THE CAR WILL DEPLOY UNLESS I PAY FORD FOR A PART THAT HAS NO MOVING PARTS. LOOKING TO SEE IF AFTERMARKET WARRANTY WILL COVER. I SEE MULTIPLE PEOPLE WITH SAME ISSUE HAVE REPORTED THIS SO THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, POTENTIALLY FOR CHILDREN.

A LIGHT ON MY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER CAME ON. IT ILLUMINATES A MAN STRAPPED IN HIS SEAT WITH A DEPLOYED AIR BAG IN FRONT OF HIM. THE LIGHT STAYS ON. ACCORDING TO ME RESEARCH, THE PROBLEM IS COMMON TO 2015 FORD EXPLORERS. THERE IS A WIRING HARNESS UNDER THE SEAT THAT HAS BEEN FRAYED BY THE MOVEMENT OF THE SEAT WHEN IT IS BEING ADJUSTED BY THE DRIVER. THE COST TO HAVE REPAIRS MADE IS ANYWHERE FROM $1000 TO $1400. I AM TOLD THAT UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED, THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY. THAT SEEMS TO ME LIKE AN UNNECESSARY DESIGN FLAW, AND IT CREATES A DANGEROUS CONDITION WITH THE VEHICLE. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO HAVE MINE REPAIRED, SO I GUESS I'LL JUST HAVE TO BE CAREFUL AND HOPE FOR THE BEST...

Mileage: 60,000

MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO FORD DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD IT IS IN THE WIRING AND ESTIMATED COST IS $1000 TO FIX MEANWHILE UNTIL I CAN AFFORD TO FIX IT I HAVE NO AIRBAGS IN MY EXPLORER NOT SAFE FOR GOING INTO WINTER AND HAVING GRANDCHILDREN IN MY SUV. *TR*JB

CHECK AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON MY 2015 FORD EXPLORER. TOOK IT IN TO GET CHECKED AND THE PROBLEM IS FAULTY WIRING TO THE MIDDLE ROW SEAT BELT AIRBAGS. THE FIX ISN'T COVERED BECAUSE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE FIX IS $800. NOTHING RELATED TO THE AIRBAGS SHOULD EVER FAIL AND IF IT DOES, SHOULD BE COVERED REGARDLESS OF WARRANTY. THERE MAY NOT BE A CONCERN WITH HAVING MY REAR SEATBELT AIRBAGS NOT WORKING, BUT BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON, I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IF THERE IS A FAULT WITH MY FRONT AIRBAGS. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP IF THIS IMPACTED THE FRONT AIRBAGS, THEY COULDN'T CONFIRM NOR DENY, THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW. FORD HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUES SINCE 2015 WHEN THEY FIRST ISSUED THEIR TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, TSB 15-0113 WHICH WAS THEN SUPERSEDED BY TSB 16-0001 IN 2016. I CALLED FORD CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE AND THEY REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM THAT SHOULD BE COVERED

DTC B141B, AIR BAG LIGHT INTERMITTINGLY COMES ON. THIS ISSUE WAS REPORTED 2X WHILE UNDER WARRANTY BUT BY THE TIME I WOULD DROP AT DEALER FOR REPAIRS THE LIGHT WOULD RESET SO THEY COULDN'T SEE ISSUE. AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED THE LIGHT CAME ON MORE OFTEN, AND TODAY THEY WERE ABLE TO SEE INDICATOR AND GET DTC. SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY NOW, IT WILL COST ME $750 TO GET MY AIR BAGS FIXED. I QUESTIONED WHY IT CANT BE FIXED BECAUSE IT WAS REPORTED 2X WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS ALMOST LIKE THEY DIDNT TRY TO FIND PROBLEM UNTIL AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED. NOW I DON'T HAVE WORKING AIRBAGS ON AN EXPENSIVE FORD EXPLORER SPORT. THIS IS MAKING ME CONCERNED IF FORD HAS POOR WIRING HARNESSES BECAUSE THESE VEHICLES HAVE SO MANY ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS. GUESS I'M SOL. I WILL TRY TO REPLACE THIS SUB PAR WIRING MYSELF TOMORROW.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AFTER THE CHILDREN GOT BUCKLED INTO THE SECOND-ROW SEAT. UPON GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND THE PROBLEM, WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WILL COST OVER $800 TO REPAIR THE SEATBELT AIRBAG CONNECTIONS! SEARCHING ONLINE I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT WAS ISSUED BACK IN 2015, BUT IT DOES NOT SEEM THAT A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. THIS SEEMS LIKE A PROBLEM THAT IS BEING EXPERIENCED BY MANY VEHICLES AND I WANTED TO POINT IT OUT TO BE CONSIDERED FOR A RECALL. FORD EXPLORER 2014-2016: BULLETIN INFORMATION INVOLVING VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SECOND ROW INFLATABLE SEAT BELTS MAY EXHIBIT AN AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITH DTC B141B AND B141C.

FORD DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR THE SAME ISSUE 7 TIMES BUT THE LIGHT IS BACK ON 8TH TIME. CONTACTING MANUFACTURER DIRECTLY WAS USELESS AS THEY JUST TELL ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR AND THAT NO OTHER OPTION IS AVAILABLE.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON ALL OF THE TIME ON 2015 FORD EXPLORER. FORD DEALERSHIP IN CHESTERFIELD, MO INDICATED THE ENTIRE WIRING HARNESS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1600. THEY HAD SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. SERVICE PERSON INDICATED THAT AIR BAGS MAY NOT DEPLOY IF IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON.

I'VE RECENTLY NOTICED MY AIRBAG LIGHT ON IN MY VEHICLE DASHBOARD. I RAN A SCAN TOOL BUT NOTHING IS BEING PICKED UP BY THE SCANNER. NOT SURE WHAT I NEED TO DO NEXT. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW. ITS USED BUT DOESNT LOOK LIKE ITS BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. I DID JUST HAVE MY CAR CLEANED AT A CAR WASH AND THEY CLEANED OUT THE CAR. I WONDER IF THEY HIT THE WIRING UNDER THE SEATS TRYING TO CLEAN THE 3RD ROW SEATING AREA?

WAS DRIVING AND THE STEER WELL BECAME LOCK COULDN'T TURN THE WHEEL, TRIED TO PUMP THE BRAKES AND THEY DIDN'T CATCH. END UP DRIVING RIGHT INTO A POLE AND THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY WITH EVERYONE HITTING THEIR HEADS AND KIDS GETTING CONCUSSIONS.
