I just bought a used 2008 ford f150....had it one week and now the airbag light comes on and off every day. Took it to five start ford and the service advisor told me there is no recall on this problem. I cannot afford to pay to have this fixed so will just have to drive it like it is and take my chances. The truck has 47k on it
In feb 2011, I called for about my 2008 ford f-150 regarding the airbag light going on and off and ford will do nothing about it. I just read that 1.2 mil f-150's were being recalled for the same issue. They said my VIN does not qualify for recall. Vin # [xxx]. So, because I don't have $500-$900 for the repair, I get to wait to be injured. Not right! Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
