Air bag light is on.
Takata recall- I took my vehicle to autonation in memphis tennessee and they wanted to charge me just for diagnosing the vehicle. My airbag light is on and I was thought that it was free of charge since there is a recall.
I took my 2009 Mustang to the columbus, ohio dealership where I purchased the car for the driver's side airbag recall which evidently they fixed. The next day my airbag light went on which it has never done before. I took it back to the dealership. I was told now that the passenger side airbag was inoperable and it would cost $750 to repair and now neither airbag was working. I did some research online and found out about the passenger side airbag was under recall as well. I called the dealership back and the service person had no idea about that recall code 17s01. I even gave him the code number. Now the dealership refuses to repair supposedly because the part of the airbag that is broken is not covered on this recall.
The contact owns a 2009 Ford Mustang. The contact stated that NHTSA campaign number: 16v384000 (air bags) exceeded a reasonable amount of time for repair. The air bag warning indicator illuminated. The contact stated that the driver's side air bag was replaced by the dealer (hemmit Ford dealer 150 carriage circle hemmit CA, 92545 phone 951-658-1370); however, the front passenger air bag was not replaced. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 123,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.
Takata recall my airbag light is on. . . . I got a notice before the airbag light came on that it was being recalled its been almost a year and they still have not contacted me about the recall repairs as to when the parts was gonna be available for repair. Have to get my car inspected next month and its not gonna pass inspection with the air bag light on. Come on Ford get together!!!!! this is my only means of transportation.
Have had side air bag light on for 3 months bought the car with 46k on clock and after a year the light flashes every time I turn the car on and does not go off Ford says not to drive and bring to stealership o I mean dealership so I can give them $2k to fix issue yea right with all the airbag news going around the past year you would think they would fix this problem before some family dies because there airbag's didn't open and Ford wouldn't issue a recall to fix the problem with.
About a month after my purchase of my new Mustang in 2009, I had an issue with my air bag light coming on all the time. I took it in while under warranty to get it fixed. It took the Ford house 2 months to fix the problem. 4 years later same issue. Air bag light is coming on. No warranty at this time to get it check out. I've noticed that it has been a common issue or at least with faulty air bags. I'm afraid I may have the same issue if I am ever in a car accident. I feel that Ford should be responsible for correcting the same issue as of 4 years ago. Call it a warning sign that it may very well be a faulty air bag issue. To be continued.
