Air bags, frontal, driver side, inflator moduleMar 10, 2021
Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2007-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion, Lincoln Zephyr, Lincoln MKZ, 2006-2011 Mercury Milan, 2007-2010 Ford Edge, and Lincoln MKX vehicles. The driver's side air bag inflator may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures, and high temperature cycling.
An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver-side airbag inflator or module with an alternate one, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed on April 9, 2021 for the passenger side, and November 14, 2022 for the driver side. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332.

Ford Motor Company (Ford) is recalling certain 2006-2010 Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Lincoln Zephyr and MKZ vehicles. The valves within the ABS Hydraulic Control Units (HCU) may react with brake fluids containing specific corrosion preventative additives. This reaction may cause the valves to not close properly.
If the valves do not properly close, additional brake pedal travel may be required to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Ford will notify owners, and dealers will flush the brake system with DOT 4 fluid and install a new brake fluid reservoir cap. In addition, the HCU will be tested to detect a possible stuck valve condition, replacing the HCU as necessary. All services will be performed free of charge. The recall began April 1, 2021. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 19S54.

Ford will notify owners, and dealers will install new replacement mats, free of charge. The recall began in July 2014. Owners may contact Ford's customer service at 1-800-392-3673.

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED A LETTER JULY 2016 STATING THAT MY AIRBAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NATIONAL TRAFFIC AND MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY ACT. I HAVE BEEN WITH TWO FORD DEALERS SINCE THEN, BUT THEY SAID EVERY TIME I BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE THAT THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG WAS NOT AVAILABLE. I JUST ENTERED MY VIN INTO THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND IT STATES THAT MY CAR DOES NEED THE AIRBAG REPLACED SINCE IT COULD RUPTURE ON IMPACT, BUT THE REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE YET. I AM VERY CONCERNED SINCE I'M DRIVING WITH AN AIRBAG THAT IS KNOWN TO CAUSE DANGER AND DEATH IF DEPLOYED. I WANT MY AIRBAG FIXED ASAP. IT'S BEEN OVER A YEAR THAT I'VE BEEN FORCED TO DRIVE IN DANGER. PLEASE PROVIDE THE REMEDY NOW.
Vehicle speed control, Electronic stability control (ESC), Engine, Sep 12, 2017
WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AT TYPICAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS (60MPH-70MPH) THE WRENCH INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE CAR LOOSES THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE ANY FASTER THAN ABOUT 10 MILES AN HOUR. WE PULL OVER, TURN THE CAR OFF AND START IT BACK UP AGAIN AND IT APPEARS TO RUN FINE. THIS CAN HAPPEN RANDOMLY ONE DAY AND THEN NOT HAPPEN AGAIN FOR A FEW WEEKS OR EVEN A MONTH OR TWO THEN IT DOES IT AGAIN. BASED ON MY RESEARCH COMPARING OTHER DRIVERS POSTING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM IS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY OR WHAT IS SOMETIMES CALLED THE ETB = ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. THE PROBLEM IS THE RESULT OF THE COMPUTER AND SENSORS SENDING BAD SIGNALS TO THE THROTTLE BODY MECHANISM WHICH THEN AFFECTS THE AIR/GAS MIXTURE AND ADVERSELY AFFECTS ACCELERATION, THIS IS DANGEROUS AND A SAFETY ISSUE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODIES FOR FORD FUSIONS BUT IT ONLY INCLUDED 2009 MODELS AND LATER MODELS, BUT IT DID NOT INCLUDE 2006 MODELS. I HAVE READ OF OTHER PEOPLE IN EARLIER MODEL CARS FROM AS EARLY AS 2005 POSTING ON FORUMS THAT THEY HAD THE SAME ISSUE, SO I BELIEVE THIS WASN'T ONLY A PROBLEM ON 2009'S AND LATER. FORD ISSUES AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE FUSION OF TEN YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. I DON'T KNOW THE NAME OF THE SPECIFIC RECALL OTHER THAN A REFERENCE TO CONSUMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 13N03. THE PROBLEM SOMETIMES IS REFERRED AS THE "LIMP HOME" MODE. IN CONCLUSION, I WOULD LIKE OUR 2006 FORD FUSION TO BE INCLUDED OR QUALIFIED IN THE RECALL SO I CAN FIX THIS PROBLEM OR AT LEAST GET REIMBURSED ONCE I GET IT FIXED SINCE IT IS A DEFECT WITH THE CAR.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY ON JULY 2016 STATING THAT THE PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR MAY RUPTURE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH NECESSITATING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. A RUPTURED INFLATOR MAY RESULT IN METAL FRAGMENTS STRIKING VEHICLE OCCUPANTS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. SINCE THIS IS ALARMING INFORMATION I HAVE CALLED THE KEN GRODY DEALER IN BUENA PARK, CA ON 7-30-16, 12-8-16 AND 9-6-17 INQUIRING IF THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE YET TO FIX MY 2006 FORD FUSION. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE YET. SO MY QUESTION IS WHEN WILL THESE PARTS BE AVAILABLE FROM FORD SO THE RECALL CAN BE FULFILLED? INJURY OR DEATH IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A SLOW MOVING FORD CO. TO RESPOND TO PEOPLE THAT BOUGHT THIS CAR.

I WAS ON A CITY STREET, IN MOTION, GOING ABOUT 10-15 MPH. I WAS BRAKING IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE, WHILE GOING OVER A BUMP WHERE THE PAVEMENT DROPPED. IT FELT LIKE THE ABS ENGAGED, THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I PULLED INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT WHERE I COULD TEST THE BRAKES. I WAS ABLE TO PUMP UP THE BRAKES, APPLY PRESSURE, BUT THEN LOST THE BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN. I REPEATED THIS PROCESS PROBABLY A DOZEN TIMES UNTIL FINALLY I HAD NORMAL BRAKING AGAIN. I'M REPORTING THIS BECAUSE I FOUND THIS LINK AFTER GOOGLING MY ISSUE: HTTPS://CONSUMERMEDIALLC.FILES.WORDPRESS.COM/2016/12/INOA-PE16017-4745.PDF ALTHOUGH THE PDF THERE DOESN'T INCLUDE MY MODEL YEAR, IT SOUNDS EXACTLY THE SAME.
