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.

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.

Service brakes, hydraulic, antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip, control unit/moduleDec 18, 2019
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 AM FILING A COMPLAINT IN REGARDS TO MY VEHICLE THAT IS ALREADY RECALLED. MY CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A PASSENGER AIRBAG THAT IS PART OF THE TAKATA AIRBAG ISSUE. MY CAR WAS RECALLED IN JUNE OF 2016. THAT INITIAL RECALL NOTICE WAS MY ONLY INFORMATION SENT TO ME BY FORD. I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY UPDATES TO THIS RECALL SINCE. WHEN I CALL I GET THE USUAL CANNED RESPONSE FROM A REPRESENTATIVE THAT THERE IS NO FIX YET. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THEIR WEBSITE REGULARLY. TODAY THE SITE DOESN'T EVEN SHOW MY CAR AS BEING RECALLED WHICH I HOPE IS JUST A PROBLEM WITH THEIR WEBSITE. MY CAR IS CLOSE TO 10 YEARS OLD WITH THIS AIRBAG AND MY ENVIRONMENT HAS BEEN VERY HUMID AND HOT DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS WHICH CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THESE AIRBAGS RUPTURING. IT WOULD BE NICE TO AT LEAST GET SOME SORT OF TIME FRAME AS TO WHEN FORD HOPES TO HAVE A FIX, OR EVEN AN IDEA OF WHEN THIS IS GOING TO BE REMEDIED. A SIMPLE ANSWER OF FOURTH QUARTER 2017, OR WHATEVER, I DON'T CARE. I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS CAR EVEN THOUGH I CAN'T AFFORD NOT TO SINCE IT IS MY COMMUTER CAR. I DON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE EITHER.

TAKATA RECALL I AM UNABLE TO BE PROVIDED WITH ANY MORE INFORMATION AS TO WHEN OR HOW THE PROCESS OF REPLACING THE AIR BAGS IS TO PROCEED. I AM THE ONLY OWNER AND DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE A 2007 FORD FUSION. THE CARS HAS JUST ABOUT 40,000 THOUSANDS MILES ON IT. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE FORD COMPANY HAS NO INTEREST IN REPLACING THE AIR BAGS ON A VEHICLE THAT IS ALMOST 10 YEARS OLD!!!!! I DRIVE THIS CAR DAILY AND I HAVE DEEP FEARS AND CONCERNS THAT I WILL HAVE AN ACCIDENT THAT WILL INVOVLE INJURIES FROM THE DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS. I WANT A MORE TRUTHFUL AND MORE DETAILED ANSWER FROM THE FORD COMPANY INSTTEAD OF THEY(WHO EVER THEY ARE) ARE MAKING PARTS .

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD IN JULY 2016 STATING THAT A DEFECT IN THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG COULD CAUSE DEATH TO THE PASSENGER IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. IT FURTHER STATED THAT I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. NOW, 8 MONTHS LATER, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANOTHER LETTER, AND THE LOCAL DEALER DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL SERVICE AND DOES NOT KNOW WHEN THOSE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. BASED ON INFORMATION ON THE FORD WEB SITE I DETERMINED THAT MY CAR IS HIGH RISK FOR SERIOUS AIR BAG MALFUNCTION BECAUSE OF ITS AGE (10 YEARS) TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS, AND HUMIDITY VARIATIONS. IN SPITE OF THIS VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION, KNOWN BY FORD MOTOR COMPANY FOR A LONG TIME THEY HAVE NOT PERFORMED THE CORRECTION NOR ADVISED ME WHEN THEY WILL PERFORM IT.
