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.

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 - MY DASHBOARD AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. I TOOK IT TO ONE DEALER WHO SAID THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL AND I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE IT FIXED ON MY OWN. WHEN I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALER, I WAS TOLD THE LIGHT HAD TO DO WITH THE RECALL AND I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AND I GET ANOTHER LETTER FROM FORD THAT IT IS TIME TO HAVE IT FIXED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO. THANK YOU.

DRIVING ON SLIPPERY WINTER NORTHERN ILLINOIS ROAD, STEPPED ON BRAKES WHEN APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT. ABS KICKED IN (SEEMED TO BE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL), THEN BRAKE PETAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND COULD NOT STOP, ALMOST HIT THE CAR AHEAD OF ME. BRAKE PETAL REMAINED VERY SOFT AND EASILY WENT TO THE FLOOR BOARD FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. AFTER THAT, IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL. I AM CONVINCED AN ABS VALVE STUCK, SO I WENT TO THE DEALER TO GET A FIX / PART. TO MY SURPRISE, DEALER SAID FORD DOES NOT SUPPLY THE PART AND CANNOT FIX THIS PROBLEM WITH A NEW PART. SO, I HAVE NO SOLUTION. IF I GET A PART FROM THE JUNK YARD, IT WILL LIKELY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM IN TIME. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM TO THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, AND FORD OFFERS NO SOLUTION. ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF IS DEACTIVATE THE ABS. AT LEAST I WILL HAVE SOME BRAKES IN EMERGENCY RATHER THAN NO BRAKES.

TOOK MY CAR IN TO THE FORD DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE THE AIRBAG BECAUSE IT HAD A SAVAGE TITLE. THE CAR WAS IN A WRECK IN PENNSYLVANIA. IT HAD DRIVER'S SIDE DAMAGE AND WAS REPAIRED. I AM TOLD THAT WHEN THERE IS AN ACCIDENT IN PENNSYLVANIA, THEY ALWAYS PUT SALVAGE ON THE TITLE. DOES FORD NEED TO REPLACE?

TAKATA RECALL. NUMEROUS DELAYS BY THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY IN SECURING A PERMANENT FIX FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL HAVE LEFT ME WITH A CAR OF LIMITED USE. REPAIR PARTS FOR PRIORITY GROUP 6 WERE SUPPOSED TO BE AVAILABLE LATE 3RD QUARTER 2017, BUT THE 5TH AMENDMENT TO THE CRO DELAYED THIS TO LATE 1ST QUARTER 2018. ADDING TO THIS, FORD NOTIFIED THE NHTSA IN NOVEMBER 2017 THAT FURTHER DELAYS WILL BE REQUIRED. AT THE CURRENT TIME IT IS UNKNOWN WHEN FORD WILL HAVE A PERMANENT FIX READY FOR IMPLEMENTATION. FORD'S LETTER IN DECEMBER 2017 NOW INDICATES IT IS UNSAFE FOR OCCUPANTS TO SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, MAKING THE CAR ONLY PARTLY USABLE. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO ME THAT FORD IS RESOLVING THIS ISSUE IN A TIMELY FASHION, AND NOW MY FAMILY'S SAFETY IN THE CAR IS QUESTIONABLE. DUE TO THE MULTIPLE DELAYS, FORD SHOULD ALLOW OWNERS TO REQUEST A TEMPORARY, LIKE-FOR-LIKE REPLACEMENT AT NO COST TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FAILURE UNTIL THE PERMANENT FIX IS AVAILABLE. THIS WOULD ALSO RESTORE FULL FUNCTIONALITY OF THE VEHICLE BY PERMITTING USE OF THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS TEMPORARY FIX WOULD BE IDEAL FOR MY SITUATION AND I FEEL FORD AND THE NHTSA SHOULD PERMIT THESE REPAIRS ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION WITH THIS MATTER.

WHEN DRIVING AND THE CAR HAS AN ABS BRAKING EVENT DUE TO A SUDDEN STOP OR SLICK ROAD CONDITIONS THE PEDAL WOULD DROP TO THE FLOOR AS IF THERE WAS NO BRAKE FLUID PRESSURE. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS RESTED PRESSURE WOULD RETURN. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 3 OCCURRENCES OF THE ISSUE, RESTING THE VEHICLE NO LONGER FIXED THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE WHO DIAGNOSED THE HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT HAD FAILED AND IT WAS REPLACED. THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED AND HAS NOT RETURNED AFTER SUBSEQUENT ABS BRAKING EVENTS.

AWAITING REPAIRS ON A TAKATA AIRBAG FOR YEARS. THE ISSUE WAS IDENTIFIED IN 2012, A RECALL WAS ISSUED IN 2016, AND PARTS ARE CLAIMED TO BE UNAVAILABLE AS OF 1/11/2018. THE DEALER SAYS CALL THE MANUFACTURE HOTLINE, THE MANUFACTURER HOTLINE SAYS THEY'LL REPAIR WHEN THEY HAVE PARTS, I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR MULTIPLE YEARS. THE NHTSA STATE THE SEATING POSITION SHOULD NOT BE USED. FINE, THEN COMP THE TCO FOR PRIMARY SEATING POSITION. I FEEL LIKE THE NHTSA AND THE MANUFACTURE ARE SIMPLY COLLUDING TO DELAY REPAIRS UNTIL THESE VEHICLES ARE NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS, AND COULD BE LIFE THREATENING TO ME AND OTHERS. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS MY BRAKES WILL NOT WORK. IT HAPPENS WHEN THE ROAD IS WET OR HAS SNOW ON IT. A FEW DIFFERENT THINGS HAS HAPPENED WHICH APPARENTLY DEPENDS HOW SLIPPERY THE ROAD IS. WHEN BRAKING SOMETIMES THERE WILL BE A ODD NOISE WHICH I THINK IS THE SAFETY BRAKING FEATURE, BUT EVEN THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO WORK CORRECT. THE WORST IS THIS. AGAIN, WHEN SLICK OR SLIPPERY ROADS. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE I HAVE LOST ALL BRAKING. THE BRAKE PEDEL GOES COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. ON A FEW OCCASIONS THIS HAPPENED WHILE TRYING TO STOP BEFORE A STOP SIGN AND ENDED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED GOING AT A SPEED OF 10 TO 55 MPH. TWICE THIS HAPPENED WHERE THE STOP SIGN WAS AT A ROAD THAT WAS 55 MPH. YOU CAN IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHY HAS NOTHING BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS POTENTIALLY DEADLY SITUATION ? FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. DOES THERE HAVE TO BE DEATHS BEFORE ACTION IS TAKEN ? THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID THE BRAKES NEEDED TO BE BLEAD. THEY SEEMED TO BE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM....AGAIN, WHY AND THE HELL IS NOTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT ? NEXT I AM GOING TO WRITE MY STATE REPRESENTATIVE OR SOMEONE WHO CAN MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN. I BELIEVE I WROTE TO YOU BEFORE, BUT LOST THE PAPERWORK THAT CAME. BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE NOTHING WAS BEING DONE ABOUT IT ANYWAY. OH, AND WHEN THE BRAKES WERE BLEAD BY THE DEALER IT MADE NO DIFFERENCE. AT LEAST WHEN OTHER CAR MANUFACTURERS HAVE RECALLS SOMETHING APPEARS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT . HERE IN THE GOOD OLE USA THINGS SEEM TO DRAG ON AND ON AND ON. SO DOES THAT MEAN FOREIGN MANUFACTURERS ARE MORE CONSIDERATE FOR OUR SAFETY THAN OWN COUNTRY ? I WANT ACTION.
