FEDS DENY FORD AND MAZDA PETITIONS TO DELAY TAKATA AIRBAG RECALLS

November 19, 2017 — The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has denied petitions from Ford and Mazda that requested more time to decide whether to recall more than 3 million vehicles.


NHTSA says the request for additional testing by the automakers isn't reasonable based on the data that has been collected.

Ford and Mazda filed the petitions after Takata said defective airbag inflators were installed in Ford, Mazda and Nissan vehicles originally believed to be safe.

Including the following models:

2006-2012 Ford Fusion 2006-2012 Lincoln MKZ 2006-2011 Mercury Milan 2007-2011 Ford Ranger 2007-2010 Ford Edge 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX

JANUARY 4, 2019 — Another Ford/Takata recall is in the works as the automaker announces about 953,000 vehicles in the U.S. and Canada will be brought back to dealerships to replace passenger frontal Takata airbag inflators.

It's the fourth expansion of recalls ordered after multiple deaths and injuries were caused by metal Takata airbag inflators that exploded and sent shrapnel into vehicle occupants.

For this latest recall, about 782,384 of the following vehicles are in the U.S. and 149,652 are recalled in Canada.

2010 Ford Edge
2010 Lincoln MKX
2010-2011 Ford Ranger
2010-2012 Ford Fusion
2010-2012 Lincoln MKZ
2010-2011 Mercury Milan
2010-2014 Ford Mustang


Ford dealers will replace the passenger frontal airbag inflators or modules, but the automaker didn't announce when the recall will begin.

Customers with questions should call 866-436-7332 and ask about recall number 19S01.

Any idea when Ford replaced Takata as a supplier for these parts?  Wonder if the recall will continue to expand ...

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

It is.  They just have no parts for it yet LOL.  My Edge is supposed to have parts available, but getting a dealer to get the work done is another matter.  SMH.
