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.

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.

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.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED. I WAS DRIVING AND TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED AND I ATTEMPTED TO STOP, HOWEVER WHEN I APPLIED PRESSURE AND THEN FELT MY PEDAL DROP AND GET SPONGY, I THEN HAD TO APPLY MUCH MORE PRESSURE BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH. WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ENOUGH STOPPING DISTANCE ALMOST DOUBLED. I ATTEMPTED TO AVOID A DIRECT REAR END COLLISION AND MANAGED TO VEER OFF TO THE RIGHT AND ONLY HIT THE OTHER CAR ON THE RIGHT REAR SIDE BUMPER. I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT REPORTS WHERE I HAVE REAR ENDED A PERSON AND IN THIS CASE I COULD FEEL THE BREAK PEDAL DROP UNDER ME. I FILED THE ACCIDENT REPORT WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. THIS IS THE STATEMENT THAT I GAVE TO THEM. "P1 WAS TRAVELING W/B IN THE NUMBER 3 LANE OF US HIGHWAY 50 WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR ON OCTOBER 20TH 2017 AT APPROXIMATELY 6:19PM. TRAFFIC WAS MODERATE AND WAS BEGINNING TO COME TO A SLOW DOWN. P1 NEEDED TO TAKE EXIT 6B TOWARD CA-99 SOUTH IN 1.9 MILES SO I USED MY RIGHT TURN SIGNAL TO INDICATE I WAS SWITCHING FROM LANE 3 TO LANE 2. AS P1 PROCEEDED TO MERGE INTO THE NUMBER 2 LANE TRAFFIC WAS SLOWING DOWN AND I WAS ENTERING THE LANE AT 25 MILES PER HOUR. STILL TRAVELING WEST BOUND IN THE NUMBER 2 LANE JUST NORTH OF THE 59TH STREET OVERPASS, P2 WHO IS NOW DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF P1 SLAMS HIS BREAKS AND BEGINS TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. P1 WAS DRIVING ABOUT 25 FEET BEHIND P2 AT 25 MPH AND ALSO APPLIED THE FULL FORCE TO THE BREAKS. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES I FELT A SPONGY FEELING ON MY BRAKE PEDAL, AND IT DIDN'T BEHAVE THE SAME AND I HAD TO REAPPLY MUCH MORE FORCE AT WHICH TIME IT WAS TOO LATE. I COLLIDED WITH THE OTHER VEHICLE AT ABOUT 10 MPH "

TAKATA RECALL BEEN AWAITING RECALL SINCE JUNE 2016. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY DON'T ANTICIPATE A SOLUTION ANY TIME SOON. HOW LONG IS REASONABLE FOR TAKATA TO FIX THIS RECALL?
Air bags, Nov 12, 2017
TAKATA RECALL - RCVD RECALL JULY 2016 AND STILL HAVEN'T HAD CAR REPAIRED. DUE TO PASSENGER "AIR BAG" LIGHT ON AND "PARTS NOT AVAILABLE" (ACCORDING TO FORD MOTOR CO. & FORD DEALERS), UNABLE TO FIX SO DMV WON'T ALLOW MY TEENS TO TAKE DRIVER'S TEST NOR CAN CAR HAVE FUTURE SMOG TESTS FOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION.

ON OCTOBER 20, 2017 MY ELDERLY MOTHER HAD TRAVELED ABOUT 150 MILES OUT OF TOWN. WHEN TRAVELING A TWO LANE ROAD A FUNERAL PROCESSION WAS COMING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. SHE HAD PULL THE CAR HALF WAY OFF THE ROAD WITH ONE SIDE OFF THE ROAD AND THE OTHER ON THE ROAD. WHEN EVERYONE STARTED TO GO AGAIN THE CAR IN FRONT OF HER CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP. WHEN MY MOTHER TRIED TO STOP SHE HAD NO BRAKES. SHE TRIED TO LEAVE THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF HER BUT SHE ENDED UP HITTING THE RIGHT CORNER OF THE CAR.. THANKFULLY MY BROTHER-IN-LAW WAS BEHIND HER. HE DROVE THE FORD FUSION 150 MILES USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKES FOR STOPPING HER CAR.IT WAS MOSTLY INTERSTATE MILES TO GET HER HOME. IF THE BRAKES HAD NOT FAILED UNTIL SHE WAS ON THE INTERSTATE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL INCIDENT. HER 2007 FORD FUSION HAS 85,000 MILES. SHE LOVED THE CAR BECAUSE IT HANDLES AND RIDES SO WELL EVEN THOUGH THE DASH IS BUCKLING AND COMING APART. NOW SHE IS AFRAID OF IT. HER MECHANIC REPLACED THE MASTER CYLINDER WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE ABS HYDRAULIC CONTROL UNIT WHICH CORRECTED THE ISSUE. THIS IS A RARE PART TO FAIL AND IT IS A REAL ISSUE.

IT IS NOW NOV 11, 2017 AND FORD HAS BEEN GIVING US THE RUN AROUND IN REGARDS TO HAVING IT REPAIRED, THIS INCLUDES HOURS OF PHONE CONVERSATIONS AND MULITPLE TRIPS TO VARIOUS DEALERS. WE STILL HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AND ARE DRIVING WITH A POTENTIALLY FATAL DEFECT. IF THERE ARE AIRBAGS AVAILABLE TO BUILD NEW CARS THEN THERE SHOULD BE AIRBAGS AVAILABLE TO REPLACE THE ONES THAT ARE DEFECTIVE. CUSTOMERS SHOULD NOT BE LEFT WAITING A YEAR AND A HALF AND COUNTING TO HAVE A SAFE VEHICLE. IN ITS CURRENT STATE VEHICLES WITH THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT PASS THE GOVERNMENT SAFETY STANDARDS THAT ARE REQUIRED BEFORE A VEHICLE CAN BE ON THE ROAD.
