I have 2019 Ford Fusion with only 6400 miles. Airbag light came on and took the car to dealership and they denied to cover airbag module replacement under warranty. Airbag module was bad and dealership denied to cover because I had small dent damaged on the quarter panel when I bought it. Car drives fine but has airbag light on due to bad module from the manufacture.

5 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2010 Ford Fusion

Failure Date: 02/03/2021

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.

7 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2011 Ford Fusion

Failure Date: 10/07/2020

The airbag light came on for the first time Wednesday, October 7, 2020. I started my car after being parked at work for 9 hours. No one was parked next to me, no damage on my car either. I am the original owner of the vehicle. At some point in the last several years (4 or less) I took my vehicle to sunset Ford in sunset hills, mo for a recall of some sort. The only other problem I've had with my car is the front passenger seat shakes. The bolts keeping the seat to the frame of the car are tight. So I'm not really sure of the iissue.

12 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2010 Ford Fusion

Failure Date: 06/09/2020

1. ) c/s airbag light is on - local dealership found passenger airbag in b pillar is cause - not related to recently completed recall 19s34 on passenger airbag inflater npa1908055946 per dealership. Not sure why the airbag systems in these vehicles are problematic, but the owner should not be responsible for charges for replacement of these problematic parts. Possible new recall needed. 2. ) recall 15v34 relating to leaking canister purge valve - Ford authorized an update to the vehicle powertrain control module calibrations to help prevent pressure cycles in the fuel tank - these calibrations were preformed however the purge valve has still failed. The part 9u5z-9c915-h was originally recommended 4 years ago when the recall was issued but the part was unavailable at the time, on special order. Vehicle owner requested repair / part replacement repeatedly but was told the part remained unavailable and was not an issue with the re-calibration unless the check engine light appeared. The dealership closed the recall without replacing the part - 6 months later the check engine light came on and the cause is the need for a replacement canister purge valve and the owner is now responsible for the repair/replacement costs. Recall should be honored.

Now the airbag light in the instrument panel is turning on and off randomly.

So now I do not know if my car is safe or not to be driving.
