| Description of the problem | This is in regard to the latest "airbag recalls" on the ford model cars. I own a 2007 lincoln mkz and i have been having a problem with the "warning light" constantly being "on" since august of the year, 2014. I immediately took it to the ford dealership to have it checked out. I was told it would be very expensive to fix, but for me "not to worry about it" as long as the light didn't bother me. In light of the recent recalls of other models of ford cars and stories on the national news about the airbag defect resulting in even fatal injuries due to the airbag, i feel this matter should be addressed by ford and repaired by ford at "their expense." additionally, i only have 50,450 miles on my car and it has been taken care of very well by me. I would appreciate a response as soon as possible since i drive my car every day and am very concerned about this issue. Thank you |
