Takata recall since moving to the extreme heat 6 years ago (arizona), when turning my wheel sharply at times, sounds like rocks rolling around internally. Trying to find out if this may be a takata airbag. Called ford today, and they cannot identify what airbag is in the vehicle with the VIN. Has there been other reports of this issue?

Something is rattling inside my steering wheel behind the horn by the air bag. It sounds like a coin rattling around inside the sterring wheel when I make a turn. When I looked this up on line all I kept reading was it's a common problem but I didn't see anything about a recall. I'm afraid if that air bag was to go off that loose piece floating around in there could put a eye out or worse.
