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's number for this recall is 21S12.

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.

The affected floor mats may move and possibly interfere with the accelerator pedal.
The floor mat could shift such that it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, preventing its return to an idle position, which could result in unintended vehicle speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
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. Ford's number for this recall is 14S07. NOTE: Vehicles built after October 31, 2010, while potentially equipped with the same floor mats, are equipped with a Brake Over Accelerator (BOA) feature that prevents simultaneous accelerator and brake application, allowing the vehicle to be safely stopped by pressing firmly and steadily on the brake pedal.

TAKATA RECALL (16V-384). I RECEIVED A LETTER ONE YEAR AGO (JUL 2016) REGARDING THIS RECALL. I AM STILL OPERATING THIS CAR ON A DAILY BASIS. THIS MODEL DOES NOT HAVE AN OFF SWITCH FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT AIR BAG SO I CANNOT HAVE A FRONT PASSENGER RIDE SAFELY WITH ME IN THIS CAR AS IT STANDS NOW. CAN YOU AT LEAST HAVE A FORD MECHANIC INSTALL AN OFF SWITCH FOR THIS DANGEROUS AIR BAG AT LEAST UNTIL A TOTAL RECALL CAN BE PERFORMED? IF NOT, I EXPECT THIS RECALL (16V-384) TO BE ACCOMPLISHED VERY SOON BECAUSE HAVING TO WAIT OVER A YEAR WOULD BE EXTREMELY IRRESPONSIBLE ON YOUR PART. PLEASE GET THIS DONE NOW. THANK YOU! MY NEXT STEP WILL BE TO WRITE THE POTUS!
