Ford Recall 21S12 (the federal safety agency Recall 21V‑158) (Driver's Airbag) has no remedy yet. The earlier recall for the passenger side airbag took many years complete. I'm the original owner, and it has been under air bag recalls that seem to not have Ford's attention for several years of my twelve years of ownership. Isn't about time for the federal safety agency to start applying pressure for Ford to take action? No incident yet, but I really don't want to have one either.

drivers airbag recall not completed
Manufacturer has failed to fix safety recall notice 21S12 / SHTSA Recall 21V‑158 in a timely manner. The recall date was March of 2021, a notice was received in April 2021. This issue is still outstanding with no repair in the imminent future. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle, but have no other options but to continue to drive it.
It's been over a year since I was notified of a safety recall in which the driver's side airbag could explode and injure or kill myself or my passengers, yet there is no fix available, and I have not been offered a safe car to drive in. Instead my passengers and I are in danger daily.

The manufacturer has not supplied a repair part for a defective airbag that could kill me or my children as this is one of our primary vehicles. It has been 1.5 years since the recall, this needs to be remedied more quickly! We have high humidity here, which makes it even more likely to explode. Please put pressure on Ford to fix this issue.
DRIVER AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENT THE DRIVER AIRBAG MAY EXPLODE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THAT CAUSES DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER AIRBAG. IF AN AIRBAG INFLATOR EXPLODES, SHARP METAL FRAGMENTS COULD STRIKE THE DRIVER OR OTHER OCCUPANTS CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Currently the recall is Recall Incomplete, remedy not yet available its been too long i called last year to get it fixed an they said they would contact when the part was available no response
This vehicle has an open recall for the drivers side airbag that Ford has failed to remedy in a timely manner
Notified of recall 21V‑158 for the driver side airbag in April 2021. It has been over a year and there is still no remedy. I do not consider this to be resolved in a timely manner. Does the federal safety agency have a definition of "timely manner" that is imposed on manufactures to complete repairs associated with safety recalls? What is being done by the federal safety agency and Ford to complete the repairs needed to comply with the recall?
I received a safety recall (the federal safety agency Recall 21V‑158) regarding my 2010 Ford Fusion in April 2021 for an issue with the driver airbag inflator. This recall has still not been addressed by Ford, and I have not received any additional information from them regarding the status of the recall since April 2021. Consumer's wife will no longer be using the SRX, dangerous vehicle. Speaking to their attorney.
the federal safety agency Recall 21V‑158 has been outstanding for more than a year. The letter I received from Ford stated that "parts are anticipated to be available in the third quarter of 2021" which is now more than six months ago. I don't want to lose an eye or be killed by my airbag. Yet, the timeliness of the repair by Ford fails to show any urgency.

Recall 21V‑158 for the driver’s side front airbag has yet to have a remedy or even an update for any of the drivers of affected vehicle including myself. Would at least like some insight as to why there’s no way to get this solved yet
This is me filing an online complaint: 3/25/2021 Ford manufacturer recall Number 21S12 (the federal safety agency Recall Number 21V158) is not being handled "in a timely manner" seeing that driver's airbag metal fragments could cause death! I only received a letter form Ford then and today is 11/30/2021 and the recall has not been remedied. I thought you might agree as I cite your website it says, "If the manufacturer has failed or is unable to remedy this safety recall for your vehicle in a timely manner, please contact the federal safety agency Vehicle Safety Hotline or file an online complaint with the federal safety agency." Also, please know, the last time Ford airbag "passenger" was handled, I ended up with a rental for 6-MONTHS, until they finally fixed it! I realize due to COVID there is potentially a shortage of supplies. Your website caught my attention and so I am just sending this since you advised to do so. Thanks!

My email is [XXX] or call me @ [XXX] please! Also because I have other work that needs redone asap. on my car after it got out of the body shop a while ago INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I purchased this vehicle March 24th and was not aware of the airbag recall that would be issued the next day. I called the Ford dealer in Bloomington, IL in regards to the recall I was aware of on March 23rd and was told that the recall was on backorder and they had no information about when it would be available. I was not informed of any safety concerns in purchasing or driving the vehicle. On May 16, my daughter was in an accident driving this vehicle. She was hit directly on the driver side. The airbags did not deploy. Her forehead broke the driver side window resulting in cuts to her head, eyelid and concussion. The police officer who responded to the scene said that he was surprised the airbags did not go off in this severe of a crash. My car insurance has determined the vehicle a total loss. Title is being turned over to State Farm.
I have contacted Woody Anderson Ford Dealership in Huntsville, AL and the dealer is giving me the run around about the recall. I have provided the same information multiple times and the dealership refuses to order parts for my vehicle. The last recall (Passenger Airbags replaced) for the same vehicle was just as bad. It this same dealership 3 years to replace the affected airbags. I can not wait this long again. Ford Motor Company called me last time and told me that the car was not safe to drive. Now, this recall affects the driver side Airbags again for the same reasons. I offered to pay for the Driver's side air bag, but was told there was nothing wrong with the airbags.

I currently got a letter stating that if I were to get into an accident and my airbags were to deploy they would most likely explode causing sharp mental fragments ti come out which would hit the driver and possibly other people in the car. I am currently pregnant and have three small children ford won't due anything to get the problem fixed nor are they willing to get me in a safe car that doesn't run the risk of killing my children. I was already in an accident in the last few years that caused the airbags to deploy and if it were in this car it would most likely kill my children. Why is this something that ford wouldn't allow drivers to get parts faster or put owners in safe rental cars?

Dealer that sold me this vehicle never informed me about any recalls and than one day my son was checking the oil while stationary and off we thought it was weird that there was a loose cable, he connects it and than he proceeded to turn on the car to our astonishment the airbag light turn on, we took it to emissions and that's when we found out how endangered our lives were, of we would have known this before, we wouldn't have gotten the car. We nearly got wrecked today on 03/04/2021, I was more scared of the vehicle in which I am than the car that nearly crashed me... I don't want to die in an instance of being involved in a car crash and have no money to afford another vehicle. And as we were leaving the house a few days later after 02/03/2021, my daughter in the passenger seat tried putting on her seatbelt but of no avail as the seatbelt wouldn't clip.
I was driving down the road and all of the sudden a warning light alerts appeared and said power steering assist fault. Then the car suddenly because very difficult to turn. Followed by traction control warning. I have service the vehicle as required and have records it has been serviced in a timely manner for its life time.
On december 1st I was driving my ford fusion 2 the actual ford dealership to get a look at their field service action that they had posted on my ford app. While on my way I was stopped at a light on columbia drive in portland oregon and I had thought my foot slipped off the brake initially but actually would happen if my car had accelerated and to the gentleman in front of me causing a car accident. My insurance company would have nothing to do with it I tried to contact ford the dealership that I normally go to to see if they could repair the front-end of my ford fusion that was demolished and also no airbags went off as I had just got my car out of the shop at ford for a recall on the airbags my fiance was with me so there was definitely cause for concern fortunately nobody was hurt but like I said my car was demolished on the right passenger side front end I couldn't figure out why my car accelerating on its own so looking into it the explanation that I came up with was definitely the electronic throttle body motor and all I want is my car returned back to its prior condition I have no other vehicle I don't know who to contact I did contact ford and was referred to a bigger ford company if someone could help that would be amazing I'd appreciate it... Also no warnings or sensors went off in my vehicle I do have the sel package and once again no airbags were deployed and for the amount of damage that was done I was very surprised
I do not own this car anymore. It was taken to a junk yard.
