| Air Bag problems |
The airbag sensor light has been illuminating intermittently for a few months. At first, only when the temps dropped below freezing but recently without any prelude. Many people would rather risk dying in a fiery crash than go to a dealer, but I decided to take the vehicle in today. The dealer says 2 airbag sensors on the passenger seat are bad, which requires a replacement of the seat track at a cost of $1,700. The service tech opined that this happened because the passenger seat isn't sat in regularly. The dealer says the vehicle is not under warranty, so its my problem. I believe this Ford motor company's design flaw and they should fix this problem at its expense.
Takata recall, the air bag light come on some times and other times it dose not. What can be done about this problem? it dose this when I start it and the light stay on and some times it dose not come on. Please advise.

When the brakes are engaged, that accelerator also engages causing the vehicle to not stop. Which caused a serious wreck. This has been checked out by the Ford dealer on multiple occasions. Several others have also reported this issue. Truck is totaled and airbags did not depoly with direct front end impact.
