The seat belts do not restrain. Also, the steering rod was broken and fixed at the last inspection which was 5/2018. We were told that the seat belts would cost $1500 or more to repair. I saw on this website that there was a recall on seat belts not restraining.

While driving the car the drivers and passengers seat belts release. I took it to a mechanic and they said the spring in the seat belt holder is failing. It isn't very unsettling to be driving the car and the seatbelt releases for no reason. It could be related to the 2000 seatbelt recall. We just bought the car for my college student. I don't want to wait for a death to get a recall.

I have a 2008 mecury Grand Marquis ,I was in a wreck in December 10,2017 frontal impact my air bags did not go off or work during my wreck also my seat belts did not work as well. I got hurt in the wreck because non of my safety equipment work. I bought the car used from Ford dealership airbags we're replaced when previous owner had the car he tap a pole in a parking lot. I complaint with Ford and dealership I don't know what airbag is in my car . I think it's a takata air bag that is in my car dealership sold me a unsafe car and knew about it. Ford motor company knows about my matter and has done nothing about it. Also shop who worked on car when previous owner had the car. Cuss me out for asking what been done on the car . I ask Ford I want my car fixed and repaired for it to be safe so I am still waiting on them. I also want tramway auto body shop in sanford nc to be under investigation for unsafe car repair. Also want Ford to recall the car as unsafe or takata air bags could been replaced and install on your car unsafe claim repairs could be done by unfit shop with out owners notice. Geico insurance has been told about airbag non deployment faulty equipment and didn't do anything.

The contact owns a 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the seat belt pretensioners on the front driver and passenger sides malfunctioned and the seat belt assembly would need to be replaced. Griffith Ford seguin (I-10 frontage rd, seguin, TX) stated that there were no recalls on the vehicle and any repair would be at the contact's expense.

The air bag light remains on all the time. My mechanic says that car's computer is generating a code indicating a problem with a sensor in driver's side seat belt. He says that the entire seat belt assembly must be replaced at a cost of $500. The car only has 70,000 miles on it. Since this is a safety issue and appears from the many complaints you've received to be a common problem with 2005 Grand Marquis's, I urge dot to issue a recall to require the manufacturer to pay for the necessary repairs.

Air bag light came on vehicle when opening door, took to private shop and dealer future Ford of roseville and both states it is a common issue with this model. Called Ford on their toll free number and stated since it's not a ntsb recall they are not obligated to fix. Error is that tensioner spring or/and canister in tensioner is over sensitive and will likely fail and cause a high ohm reading to the computer, causing error light on, to blink 3-3 for driver side or 3-4 for passenger, and disabling airbags. Dealership is back logged on orders for new seatbelt assemblies, that in some cases may take over two weeks for order to clear. Assemblies are faulty by design. Ntsb should investigate Ford and make a mandatory recall for this and similar models and multiple years that use this assembly type, since this issue is a safety risk, and a design fault.

Air bag light stays on. When starting car, get 3 dings twice, pause, repeat . . . I have been told by a local dealer it will cost $600-$1200 to fix. Considering the number of complaints on this issue and the fact that it is a safety issue, why has NHTSA not required a recall? since I cannot afford the cost, I guess I will have to live with it as I am sure many others are doing.

First passenger airbag light and chirping sound came on. Paid the high cost of getting repaired then about 3 weeks the driver side light and chirping sound came on having to get that repaired!! airbag light stays on constantly and the chirping sound comes and goes. Comes on when I turn the car on.

Several times each time I drive the drivers seat belt will come undone.

The seat belts will not stay attached. You can put them on and they appear to be locked in and you can pull on them to see if they are attached and they appear to attach but then while just sitting, they may pop-off you and become disengaged leaving you without your seat belt on you. This can occur if the car is in motion or if it is standing still. Sometimes it will even pop-off right after you put it in the buckle. They are faulty. We called Ford and they will not do anything to repair or recall it. I talked to 2 people at Ford customer care and sent them an email, also but they will not do anything to help us. We also contacted a Mercury dealer who told us to call Ford.

Both back seat belts don't retract as they should, the test was done when vehicle is stopped but I checked my other grandmarquis of 1997, it has the same issue. I also took it a mechanic and they checked two different but Ford crown victoria, it snowed the same issue. All vehicles were stationary during test. Is there any safety test I can perform to make sure they work or recall on this vehicle.
