"takata recall" I was driving my 2009 Ford Mustang on a neighborhood street 30 mph, when I turned a corner (10 mph) I attempted to honk my horn and the passenger airbag deployed, my car accelerated with a hard right straight into a dumpster damaging the drivers side of the vehicle, the drivers side airbag did not deploy. I had purchased the car 6 months before this accident and the horn had not worked, we did not know there was a recall on the airbag at this time. This accident could have killed someone because the car became uncontrollable, the impact was so forceful it bent the frame of the car the damage to the vehicle is estimated at $7000. 00.
Takata recall my 2009 Mustang has a defective passenger seat occupancy sensor. When no one is seated the airbag flashes code 16. When I fasten the belt on that side still unoccupied, the fault code stops, but the center dash lights up indicating passenger airbag is off. My research shows the problem is not unique to my car, and that it has and is an ongoing issue with many cars not just Ford. This vehicle is on the takata recall for drivers airbag replacement since March of 2015. As yet Ford does not have replacement parts. I believe the passenger seat cushion assembly which includes the bladder, sensor, and ecm should also be recalled. I live in hawaii (high humidity) and research has shown this to be the root cause of the failures. At this point the vehicle is completely unsafe for the driver and passenger in the event of an accident, the drivers airbag has the potential to cause serious injury or death, and the passenger airbag may or may not deploy or effectively prevent injury or death. Please respond with any direction.

Takata recall. In the event of the crash, the airbags did not deploy. I was driving in a foot of snow in a mall parking lot going the parking lot speed limit and as I was coming to a yield to turn, I run over the curb that was covered in the snow. The curb was about 3 feet across and I did not clear the distance so I was stuck on the curb top. The car shut off during this event and I hit my head on the windshield hard enough to cause damage as seen in the photo provided because the seat belt I had equipped provided no safety either. The end result airbag dash light is illuminated and the functions of the steering wheel does not operate. Moderate to slightly severe concussion.
I was coasting to red light when it felt like my car just went without me accalerating my side air bags did not deploy even though I was t boned.
