| Description of the problem | Contacted ford regarding a recall of ford 150s including my model year that included a risk of airbag deployment. The airbag and horn on my f150 have stopped working, just as in the recall. However, ford says that my vehicle is not included, despite an identical problem. It is my understanding that nhtsa requested a larger recall than ford issued, one that would likely have included my vehicle. This is why i'm entering the information here. Contacted local ford dealer and ford corporate, told by both that i couldn't receive recall fix. I am afraid that the airbag will deploy when i start the vehicle, or wont deploy when i need it in an accident. |
