Air bags deploy out my passenger side seat. While I’m driving and allow driver side to emergency parking break keep coming on while. Driving. Check charging system
I got into a wreck about two months ago and my air bags didnt deploy I wasnt going to do anything about it till I seen there was a recall on my car for airbags and I decided I needed to file a complaint as you can see from the picture my wreck was pretty bad and the air bags never went off. I got ran off the road and hit a ice patch and spun out I to the mountain head on and the bags never deployed
I had started my car one morning and noticed some "dummy" lights had not gone off. I then got a notice about "hill side assist not available" that was weird as I was on a flat surface. Then I also got a notification that said "service advancetrak". The warning lamps that stayed illuminated are ABS, front airbag, stability control, and stability control off lights. While I drove off, the steering was affected as well, it wasn't like I had no power steering, but it was definately more difficult to steer. I got to work, called the dealer, made an appointment for my car to be looked at. Which was thenext day. When I went back to my car after work, the warning lights and notifications did not appear. The next day, went to the car, going to work, all the lights appeared again. Car went to the shop and was told the speed sensor and hub need to be replaced. The total cost is $635.00 for repairs. I have seen lots of complaints of this sort for my year of car. I believe a recall should be issued.
My airbag signal is on and I took my car to sheehy ford in marlow heights, md. They informed me that my airbag is malfunction on the passenger side and is not covered under the current recall from ford. I do not understand how an airbag can malfunction without any damage to the front end of the car. I strongly feel that this safety measure should be addressed by ford since they already have a recall of the same brand that is in my car.
I noticed this issue a few different times and thought nothing major of it, but for whatever reason my transmission would continue to propel the vehicle forward regardless of the vehicle was in neutral and also noticed the vehicle would often times continue to accelerate and fail to engine brake after my foot had let off the accelerator. The latter of which I was more concerned about and was going to have a mechanic look at it next time I took the vehicle in to get serviced. However, before I was able to do that I was involved in a motor vehicle accident that totaled the vehicle. I was driving in a rural area and approached a set of train tracks. I went to slow down to cross the tracks via engine braking, but the vehicle continued to accelerate. I attempted to use the brakes to slow down before I reached the tracks, but the delayed response and the gravel on the roadway proved no avail at slowing the vehicle and I hit the tracks going much faster than I would have liked, around 40 miles per hour. The roughness of the tracks caused my front axle to snap, yanking me to the right off the roadway, through someone's yard and into some timber. What I thought was also concerning was the airbags failed to deploy at all during the accident.
Airbag light came on. Asked dealer to check. They said it looked like a wire had been cut. So they said wouldn't fall under warranty. This makes no sense. It should be covered. I have only had my car to ford dealerships for regular maintenance under their plan since purchased new. Airbags have never deployed. I have no idea where these wires are even located. So is this faulty from day one or done while other work regular maintenance or recall work done? Why do I need to pay for almost $500 for repair? Should be warranty work.
My air bag light is on and has been on for at least three years or more, I received a recall noticed from ford. When I took the notice to them, they said they could not find the information in their system.
Takata recall. I had a rear end accident with front end damage also. The airbags did not deploy at more then 40 plus mile inpack what happen? Car was stationary waiting to make a left hand turn on a highway. Help!
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford fusion. While driving, the contact noticed that the air bag warning indicator was illuminated. As a result, the vehicle did not pass inspection. The contact was concerned for her safety that the air bag might not deploy in the event of a crash. Herb chambers ford of braintree (75 granite street, rte 37, braintree, ma 02184, (781) 848-1350) was called and a diagnostic appointment was scheduled. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer and was not repaired. The contact received a recall notice for the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v597000 (air bags), but she never took the vehicle to be repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 125,175.
Had my oil change/tire rotation done on 08/01/19 and was told I had to get new lug nuts as they were swollen & misshapen. Cost of $200 to change them. I thought this is wi, winters are harsh so ok. Apparently this is not new according to this website. Also have no working airbags as a sensor for the seatbelt is not working. To fix that will be $300+ but I refuse to pay for this as there is a recall in place for that also!! We are loyal ford customers and to find out ford knows about this is infuriating. We are now looking to trade this fusion in (only 75k miles on it) but do we go with another ford or a different make. To have to even ask this question astounds me. Ford - fix the problems!!!
Have yet to receive a notice of the takata airbag recall and now my light is flashing on while driving. I've had 2 diagnostics done on my car before I fixed the issue and after I replaced the ABS sensor on my left front wheel and I'm still getting the same codes for my ABS, service traction control and hill assist lights. I have had my brakes replaced thinking that was an issue because my pedal is depressing to the floor while in motion and feels like it won't stop when turning to park. What else am I to do?
My airbag sine is on sine like one year
When in park or driving my door opens up. My door will not lock and it's not safe driving my vehicle . And it's airbag singal on the dashboard .
The drivers seatbelt light and warning to not work and it has tripped the airbag light. You have recalled some ford fusions for this exact problem. Yet I am having that exact problem and your saying it wasn't my VIN. Not quite getting why
Air bag light has came on and would not go off the car hasn't been in a accident or anything. The airbag light came on when I was driving on the highway.
Brakes are sliding, the panel lights turning on the transmission locking
While driving home on a city street the airbag indicator came on and has been on ever since.
Takata recall- I saw ford fusion on the recall list and I got a letter saying that I would be receiving $500 for my trouble with the recall. On the takata list for recipients of $500 I saw that my car should be recalled and I haven't received the letter from ford yet. It's also not in your recall list. Also there is a seatbelt recall 11/30/16 and that is very dangerous to not to have a solution yet. Please help. It?s recall # 16v875000 my VIN is [xxx]. Thank you. I've been so scared to drive this car. I thought I wouldn't be on the list and 2 years later find out I am. Ford didn't even tell me. It's not even on your list. I found out from the lawsuit that I am a claimant also. I have 2 dangerous recalls. They should give me a new car. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Takata recall
Takata recall spring load gas tank cover broke (spring either broke or fell off)
"takata recall" but not sure. Started my car drove through a parking lot at low speed. When pulling onto the highway my front air bag light went on. Pulled off the road turned off my car. Looked at owners manual. Started car, moved my drivers seat back and drove home leaning my body to the right passenger side. Light stayed on all the way. I called my regular mechanic about this problem and he informed me that they could not touch the car due to the recall and to call the dealer. Called ford when I got to my home. They informed me that there systems were down and not to drive car. It was extremely unnerving to get home.
My 74yr old mom hit a 1 foot tall concrete barrier (picture attached) at a county rural recycling center resulting in all 4 airbags to deploy. Barrier isn't painted, no fence, no railing or pole to mark it. Minor damage (photo attached) to the auto, bosch recorder shows <15 MPH (file too large to attach). Car is in a storage unit in iowa for evidence. Mom's prognosis was subdural hematoma, encephalopathy and uncal herniation resulting in her death (see attached). Medical examiner determined cause of death was the car accident. In addition to the issue with the airbags, my step-dad (84 years old) was in the passenger side and also was hit by airbags. While the airbags saved him, he was quite bruised/injured. Emergency response was not requested. We (my family) believe that considering the age of our parents and the fact my mom was hit in the side of the face - more caution (state law requiring medical attention) should be exerted by all police officers in this situation (police report attached). We take all kinds of precautions with kids on the sports fields, why not the elderly? My mom was obviously suffering from confusion and concussion. Tragically, we lost her to a safety feature. Uncomprehensible. *bf

Airbag warning light on
Takata recall - if they can still manufacture vehicles and install airbags, they should be able to put their energies into fixing an outstanding recall five years old.
I was crossing an intersection when another vehicle hit me on the front drivers side and my air bags did not deploy when collision happened
