I was in an accident and the airbags did not inflate. I was going 30-35 MPH, there was a patch of ice, and I hit a tree. The truck was totaled. I smashed my face on the steering wheel, fracturing a bone. Some weeks later I received a letter in the mail from Ford Motor Company with regards to a passenger side airbag recall. I am afraid that this could perhaps be a bigger problem than just passenger side airbags.

The contact owned a 2005 Ford Ranger. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH during rain weather conditions, the contact lost control of the vehicle while going around a curve, causing the vehicle to crash into a ditch. No air bags deployed. The contact suffered a head injury and several other unknown injuries due to the seat belt. The paramedic had to cut the seat belt to release the contact from the vehicle. The contact was taken to the hospital to seek medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed and was deemed a total loss by the insurance company. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was unknown.

At 200k miles I got an air bag light on my guage cluster. The blinking code corresponded to a bad connection at the CLOCKSPRING. I also noticed my cruise control and horn were also inoperable, also an indicator of a bad CLOCKSPRING. Ford part number 1l5z-14a664-ab is the replacement part and is currently unavailable, for the last 6 months. This part covers a few different models and has been exhausted by the dealers when correcting the Airbag recall. The dealer can not give me a date on a replacement part.

THE PASSENGER SIDE MODULE - AIR BAG WAS REPLACED TWICE FIRST 3/17/ 2017 AND 8/23/2018 AND THE 2ND TIME THEY REPLACED IT WITH OUTDATED PARTS. REPORT RECALL PART 573 SAFETY - 21V-081. THE REPLACEMENT HAS NOT STARTED YET BUT I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A LAWSUIT ALSO BECAUSE THEY DID THE REPLACEMENT ANYWAY TO SATISFY THE GOVERMENT AND THEY PUT OUR LIFES AT RISK

Mileage: 40,909

TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE STILL BACKORDERED FOR MY 2005 FORD RANGER WHEN IT WAS TAKEN TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALER.

Mileage: 182,284

I HAD THE AIR BAGS REPLACED, AFTER NEW AIRBAGS WERE INSTALLED. AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS FLASHING, CODE 27, WHICH MEANS PASSENGER AIR BAG BYPASS MODULE # F81B-14BZ68-AD. MODULE HAD A BAD INDICATOR LAMP WHICH IN TURNS DISABLES THE ENTIRE AIR BAG SYSTEM. SO IN MY OPINION FORD SHOULD REPAIR THIS SO THAT I CAN HAVE AIR BAGS TO PROTECT ME. WITH THIS LAMP NOT FIXED I HAVE NO AIR BAGS, SO THE RECALL WAS USELESS. I NEED THIS FIXED AND THINK IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE ALONG WITH THE AIR BAG RECALL. I SPOKE TO FORD AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS OR MAYBE IS AN ISSUE, NO COMMITMENT THERE. I CANNOT AFFORD THE INSPECTION COSTS BUT YOU TUBE GAVE ME ALL THE INFORMATION I NEED TO KNOW, THE $89 FOR INSPECTION AND $125. FOR PARTS AND INSTALLATION ARE WAY OUT OF MY BUDGET. THIS IS A SAFETY MATTER THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. YES THIS IS A CONSTANT CONDITION TO THE FORD RANGER AS IT SITES NOW. THE YOU TUBE SITE I USED IS: WWW,YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=U5MAYZJCTM, SO ANYONE CAN DIAGNOSIS MY TRUCK. DON'T NEED $89.00

"TAKATA RECALL" I HAVE RECEIVED RECALL NOTICES ON BOTH OF THE AIRBAGS IN MY VEHICLE (ONE IN DECEMBER 2015 FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THE OTHER IN FEBRUARY 2016 FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE). I DID NOT DO ANYTHING IN DECEMBER 2015 SINCE MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG COULD BE TURNED OFF. WHEN I GOT THE SECOND NOTICE ABOUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE, I CAUSED THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY RATHER THAN RISK INJURING SOMEONE IN MY FAMILY. I CALLED MY LOCAL FORD DEALER AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE AIRBAGS REPLACED ON NOVEMBER 10, 2017. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLACE MY AIRBAGS WITHOUT AN AUTHORIZATION FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY SINCE I HAD TAKEN THE DEPLOYMENT CANISTER OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND DISCARDED IT. I DID THIS BECAUSE I STILL NEEDED TO USE THE COVERING INSERT IN MY STEERING WHEEL. THE DEALER ADVISED ME TO CONTACT FORD MOTOR COMPANY "FORD CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP/ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE" AT PHONE # 1-800-392-3673. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO BECAUSE THEY HAD TO HAVE THE RECALLED AIRBAG CANISTER TO GET CREDIT FOR REPLACING IT. SO NEITHER OF MY AIRBAGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. DO I HAVE ANY OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO HAVE MY AIRBAGS REPLACED, AT THIS POINT, OTHER THAN PAYING THE COST OF REPAIR MYSELF?

GETTING THE RUNAROUND. I WEIGH 96 POUNDS AND AM 70 YEARS OLD. IF BAG IS DEFECTIVE THEN I WILL BE ONE OF THE DEATH STATISTIC. I ALREADY THINK WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH AIRBAG.

I CONTACTED COWLES FORD IN WOODBRIDGE, VA IN APRIL, 2017 ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL. THEY TOOK DOWN MY VIN, SAID THEY WOULD ORDERS THE PARTS, SAID IT WOULD TAKE SOME TIME FOR THE PARTS TO COME IN AND THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PARTS CAME IN. I GOT ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE AND CALLED THEM IN DECEMBER, 2017. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAW WHERE THEY TRIED TO ORDER THE PARTS BEFORE WITH NO OTHER INFORMATION LISTED. HE TOOK DOWN MY VIN, SAID HE WOULD ORDER THE PARTS AND WOULD CALL ME IN ABOUT 2 WEEKS WHEN THEY CAME IN. HE CALLED ME BACK AND SAID HE CALLED IN TO ORDER THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PARTS AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MARCH, 2018 AND FOR ME TO CALL BACK MID-MARCH FOR A STATUS. I HAVE A VOICEMAIL WHERE THE DEALERSHIP STATES THIS. THE AIRBAG RECALL SAYS THE PARTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE AND TO GET THE AIRBAGS REPLACED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND MEDIA/NEWS IS REPORTING THERE WAS AN AIRBAG RELATED DEATH RECENTLY FOR MY SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE MANUFACTURED ONE YEAR AFTER MY VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR MONTHS TO RECEIVE THE "INTERIM" REPLACEMENT FOR MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG, AND I HAVE FELT UNSAFE IN DRIVING MY VEHICLE SINCE I FIRST RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR. I'VE BROUGHT MY TRUCK (2005 FORD RANGER) INTO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP 3 SEPARATE TIMES, AND EACH TIME THEY'VE RETURNED IT TO ME WITHOUT FIXING ANYTHING BECAUSE THE PART FOR THE INTERIM REPLACEMENT HAS BEEN ON BACKORDER. THIS IS IN HOUSTON, TX, SO RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PRIORITY REGION DUE TO EXTREMELY HIGH HUMIDITY. I HAVE TRIED EVERY POSSIBLE AVENUE TO GET A LOANER VEHICLE, BY CALLING FORD CUSTOMER CARE AND MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP (STERLING MCCALL FORD IN HOUSTON, TX). I KNOW THAT HONDA IS ISSUING LOANER VEHICLES, DESPITE HAVING MANY MORE MODELS AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL. IT IS CLEAR THAT HONDA CARES MORE ABOUT ITS CUSTOMERS' SAFETY THAN FORD, BECAUSE FORD REFUSES TO ISSUE LOANER VEHICLES FOR THIS RECALL. I REFUSE TO DRIVE MY TRUCK OR ALLOW MY WIFE TO DRIVE MY TRUCK UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS FIXED. THIS LEAVES ME WITHOUT A VEHICLE TO DRIVE. I URGE NHTSA TO PUT PRESSURE ON FORD TO PROVIDE LOANER VEHICLES, AS HONDA HAS DONE, TO SHOW THAT THEY ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS' SAFETY.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE ON 7/16/15 THAT MY 2005 FORD RANGER WAS AFFECTED BY RECALL 15S22. I THEN RECEIVED A NOTICE ON 12/7/15 THAT THE REPAIR PARTS WERE BECOMING AVAILABLE. I WAS IN CONTACT WITH A LOCAL FORD DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND AFTER THE REPAIR PARTS ARRIVED, I MADE A 2/15/16 APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIRS. THE NAME OF THE DEALER THAT PERFORMED THE REPAIRS IS SUNSET FORD. ON 2/15/16, THE REPAIR WAS MADE ON CUSTOMER NUMBER 71758, AND INVOICE NUMBER FOCS185790. HOWEVER, AFTER THE REPAIR PARTS WERE INSTALLED, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASH. THIS HADN'T HAPPENED BEFORE THE REPAIR WAS DONE. THEN THERE WERE E-MAIL COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND A FORD AGENT. THE AGENT STATED THAT THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED, AND EXPLAINED THAT A FUSE NEEDED TO BE REMOVED TO DE-POWER THE SYSTEM, AND THEN RETURNED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TRIED, THERE WAS A BATTERY DISCONNECT, AND A FIX DIDN'T WORK. A SWITCH, OR CIRCUIT, OR SOMETHING ELSE ISN'T WORKING. THE COST TO FIX THE NEW FAILURE IS $253.99, AND FORD WON'T COVER IT. I DECLINED PAY FOR THIS NEW FAILURE, AND LEFT THE DEALERSHIP WITH AN AIRBAG DASH LIGHT THAT INITIALLY BLINKS, AND THEN STAYS ON. THIS VEHICLE MAY BE MORE UNSAFE TO DRIVE NOW, THAN IT WAS WHEN IT WAS INITIALLY TAKEN-IN FOR SAFETY REPAIRS! 1. DID FORD PROVIDE ADEQUATE TRAINING FOR REPAIRS ON RECALL 15S22? 2. DID THE REPAIRS FOR 15S22 CREATE A FAILURE FOR SOMETHING ELSE? 3. IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR REPAIRS, SUCH AS THE ROOT CAUSE FOR THE CURRENT CONDITION THAT IS CAUSING THE DASH'S AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT TO GO ON? 4. IS FORD DOING SOMETHING TO TRY TO CREATE EXTRA BUSINESS FOR ITS DEALERSHIPS THAT'S AT THE CUSTOMER'S EXPENSE? 5. WHEN WILL FORD, OR THE DEALERSHIP SUNSET FORD, GET MY TRUCK'S WARRANTY-RELATED SAFETY DEFECT CORRECTED, AT NO EXPENSE TO ME?

YOU CAN TAKE YOUR TRUCK TO A FORD SERVICE CENTER AND HAVE THEM INSPECT IT. I ASKED IF FORD WOULD PAY FOR THE INSPECTION HE SAID YES AND SEEMED TO BE GETTING ANOIED THAT I CONTINUED TO ASK QUESTIONS. HE THEN SAID THAT FORD WOULD WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE INSPECTION AND THAT THERE WAS NO MORE HE COULD DO FOR ME . I THEN ASK TO SPEAK TO HIS SUPERIOR HE STATED THAT HE DID NOT HAVE A SUPERVISOR THAT HE WAS THE TOP PERSON THERE AND THAT WAS IT . HE ALSO PATCHED ME THROUGH TO PARSONS FORD SERVICE DEPT TO GET RID OF ME. SO NOW I ASK WHAT AM I TO DO ?? DO I DRIVE MY UNSAFE VEHICLE FORD SAYS ITS UNSAFE .DO I PARK IT?? I NEED MY VEHICLE.
