  • Ford Motor Company Issues Two Safety Recalls in North America
    NEWS www.twitter.com/ford www.facebook.com/ford www.instagram.com/ford www.medium.com/@ford Ford Motor Company Issues Two Safety Recalls in North America DEARBORN, Mich., Feb. 18, 2021 – Ford Motor Company is issuing two safety recalls in North America. Safety recall for select vehicles that may have had obsolete Takata service parts installed in collision and theft repairs after the Takata recall was completed Ford identified that certain Takata airbag modules were not purged from service stock after the parts for the permanent service fix became available. Following extensive investigation and tracing, Ford could not account for some of the obsolete Takata service parts, indicating they may have been installed on vehicles as part of collision or theft repairs. Ford is not aware of any reports of accident or injury related to this issue. This recall involves two distinct vehicle populations: Population 1 • Ford used dealer records to identify 1,117 vehicles with collision repairs that may have been done with an obsolete service part after the Takata recall was completed. This involves 1,067 vehicles in the U.S. and federal territories, 49 in Canada and one in Mexico. • The group comprises certain 2004-11 Ford Ranger, 2005-14 Ford Mustang, 2006 Ford GT, 2008-12 Ford Fusion, 2009-11 Mercury Milan, 2010-12 Lincoln MKZ, 2007-10 Ford Edge and 2007-10 Lincoln MKX vehicles. • Dealers will inspect the driver or passenger airbag inflator or module and replace, if necessary. Population 2 • Ford was unable to locate 45 single-stage inflators that are compatible with 2004-06 Ford Ranger vehicles.
