Airbag inflator problems

Therefore, it is necessary to carry out the recall requested by the automaker, for greater driver safety. In the event of a crash, the AirBags will be deployed, but the vehicle's inflator could break, causing a risk to life.

A defect in the inflator may be due to sealing failures and sometimes exposure to moisture, thus causing the part to crack.

This situation occurs in extreme cases and is caused by high internal pressure. As such, such damage will cause metal fragments in the car to fly away or hit the driver's body.

Comparing injuries as stab wounds, or in more specific cases, compared to bullet by firearm. Therefore, for the sake of driver safety, a recall must be carried out.

Depending on the vehicle, you may have a free replacement of the part or the air bag module. Consult a Ford survey for more information.

An appointment can be made through the Ford Service Center, by calling 0800 703 3673, or if you prefer, at the nearest Ford dealership.

Finally, the service start date was November 23, 2021 and is still in effect.
