What owners say
Srs light stays illuminated while driving. Dealer has been notified. Please provide additioal information.
The airbag comes on and will stay on for a little while and go off. It has come on several times. Contacted charapp ford and informed me the first time that to bring the car in when the light stays on. The second time it came on and went off, they told me to bring my car in. Brought my car in on 7/25/00 and told me that they could not do any diagnostic testing until the air bag light came on and flashed. Said that there was no safety issue as far as it was coming on and off, and that it was fine to drive in that condition. Come back when air bag light flashes on and off.
Noticed air bag light indicator flashing, module shorted out because of beverage spillage, design should be were beverage can not get under the cover, design flaw.
Air bag indicator lights turned on by itself without air bag deployment. Tt

Air bags: frontal
- What is wrong
- The driver side air bag module can have an inadequately welded inflator canister.
- Risk
- In the event of a collision, the weld seam can separate, causing the air bag to fail to deploy properly and hot gases to be expelled from the back of the steering wheel. This can result in an increased risk of personal injury from the hot gases and the air bag failure.
- Remedy
- Dealers will install a new air bag module.
