Eight problems related to air bag have been reported for the 1999 Ford Ranger. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
"takata recall" we continue to receive notice that air bags need replacement. Have been told we are on waiting list and that parts will be available soon and when they come in we will be notified. As of yet this has not hapened. This week notice in the news and on web sites of Ford and takata and your site suggests that these vehicles not be driven. What are we to do? we have continued to take are vehicles into the Ford dealership to keep them maintained and in good working order, we are given no solution of a replacement or option of deactivation of the device until a replacement is available and not even an option for purchase of a replacement. Please help all our vehicles are Fords all on recall we should not be forced to drive activated bombs.
Website say 99 Ford Rangers are under Ford airbag recall. Per NHTSA recall info is only available to Jan 1, 99 owners should contact manufacturer for additional recall info. My CA registration say date sold 00/001999. Ford website blocks access to airbag recall data. Pls advise me how to proceed at frank. Dengler. Ctr@navy. Mil. Thanks!.
