1 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/31/2018

Bought the truck, found out the truck had been wrecked and we were never informed. We went to have the oil changed and was told about the recalls. The man told me that someone had replaced the driver side airbag, but instead of bolting it back in, the airbag was riveted back in. After being told about the airbag, we contacted the place where we bought the truck and was told the guy that sold us the truck was unavailable and that he would call us back. To this day we haven't heard back from them.

3 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/17/2011

This is in reguards to Ford's 2006 f150 driver side air bag recall. Ford is refusing to give the dealerships the key to unlock the anti theft box that the air bag is in to do the safety recall. They instruct the service team to "use a dremel tool". This is not acceptable. Service team is "not comfortable" using a dremel to fix this. Any thing done like this to this vehicle will void any and all warranties!!!! safety recall has not been done on this vehicle.
