2009 Ford Mustang

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.

MY CAR STALLED A FEW TIMES WHEN I STOPPED AT STOP SIGNS THEN IT DIDNT HAPPEN AGAIN FOR A FEW WEEKS. THIS TIME I WAS RUNNING INTO DUNKINS TO GET A COFFEE SHUT THE CAR OFF CAME OUT 2 MIN LATER STARTED THE CAR WENT TO DRIVE AWAY AND THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. SHUT OFF CAR WAITED A MIN RESTARTED IT AND NO PROBLEM DROVE ON. A FEW DAYS LATER SAME THING RAN IN STORE CAME OUT AND IT DID IT AGAIN. BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC HE HOOKED IT UP TOLD ME IT WAS THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. HE TOLD ME FORD HAD RECALLS ON MANY OF THE CARS FOR THIS BUT NO IDEA WHY THE MUSTANG WAS NOT RECALLED CAUSE IT USED THE SAME PART AS THE OTHER CAR. HAD TO GET IT REPLACED. THEY SAID IF I KEPT DRIVING IT LIKE THAT IT WOULD GO INTO LIMP MODE AND THATS VERY BAD WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSE THAT COULD CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT. NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE MUSTANG WOULD NOT BE ON THE RECALL LIST FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR TACHOMETER WAS RACING UP AND DOWN PERIODICLLY WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR BUT THE COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE REASON AND SAID THE CAR WAS FINE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT KIND OF PHOTO YOU WANT BELOW. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL PART THE MECHANIC TOOK OUT OF MY CAR AND I HAVE THE INVOICE FOR GETTING IT DONE. IS THAT WHAT YOU NEED?

"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; I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM FORD MOTOR COMPANY IN JULY OF 2016 THAT INFORMED ME OF A SAFETY RECALL (16S26 / NHTSA RECALL 16V-384) THAT AFFECTS MY VEHICLE AND FURTHER STATES THAT SHOULD THERE BE AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, A RUPTURED INFLATOR MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. I HAVE NOT YET BEEN CONTACTED FOR THE REPLACEMENT INFLATOR AND I HAVE VISITED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP ON TWO OCCASIONS TO STATUS THE RECALL. I WAS INTERESTED IN HAVING THE PASSENGER SIDE INFLATOR DEACTIVATED UNTIL THE REPAIR WAS ACCOMPLISHED BUT THE DEALERSHIP REPRESENTATIVE STATED THEY WERE NOT AUTHORIZED TO DEACTIVATE. THEREFORE, I NEED YOUR AUTHORIZATION TO ALLOW FORD TO DEACTIVATE THE PASSENGER SIDE INFLATOR IMMEDIATELY AND UNTIL THE RECALL HAS BEEN SATISFIED.

TAKATA RECALL - PART REPLACEMENT FOR THIS USED CAR IS STILL OUTSTANDING. (IS FORD CREATING THE REPLACEMENT INFLATOR AS HAS BEEN INFORMALLY REPORTED?) VIN NUMBER WAS NOT FOUND IN NHTSA LISTING, WHICH CONCERNS ME GREATLY, SO WILL I STILL BE INFORMED WHEN REPLACEMENT PART(S) AVAILABLE SINCE THIS HAS NOW BEEN REPORTED?! THE CAR IS A CONVERTIBLE(CV) IF THAT MAKES ANY DIFFERENCE. WOULD LIKE TO HAVE PART REPLACED IMMEDIATELY AS THREE PEOPLE, INCLUDING TWO CHILDREN, ARE TRANSPORTED IN CAR EVERY DAY, AND THE INFLATOR ISSUE IS VERY CONCERNING. THE DELAY IN REPLACEMENT IS UNACCEPTABLE IN MY VIEW. PARTS SHOULD BE REPLACED ASAP!! PLEASE TREAT REPLACEMENT WITH REAL URGENCY AND LET THE AUTHOR HAVE FREQUENT UPDATES VIA MAIL OR E-MAIL.

COMPUTER SYSTEM CHECK INDICATED SRS LIGHT ON CODE 22. THIS CODE IS FOR A FAULTY SIDE AIRBAG MODULE/HARNESS. THE SIDE AIR BAG IS BUILT INTO THE DRIVER SEAT. THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN TSB 09-8-7 REGARDING THE WIRE HARNESS THAT IS STRETCHING THE WIRE TO THE AIR BAG MODULE. THIS SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST. THE TSB FILE IS 7MB THEREFORE HERE IS THE LINK TO THE TSB 09-8-7 HTTP://KERRYMITCHELL.NET/MUSTANG/DOCUMENTS/TSB/TSB09-08-07.PDF, PLEASE COPY AND PASTE ON BROWSER TO OPEN THE FILE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. THANK YOU. *TR

TAKATA RECALL MY 2009 MUSTANG RECENTLY HAD A REPAIRED DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG. FROM THE TAKATA COURT DOCS IT LOOKS LIKE A PASSENGER FRONT AIRBAG IS COMING. MY CAR IS DUE FOR A STATE INSPECTION BUT WONT PASS BECAUSE OF AN AIRBAG DASH LIGHT. AFTER RESEARCH I FOUND A FORD TSB 10-23-8 THAT SHOWS THIS YEAR VEHICLE HAS DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ISSUES ALSO AND A SYMPTOM IS THE DASH WARNING LIGHT AND CDE 23. I CANT DRIVE MY CAR SINCE ITS REJECTED BUT ID LIKE MORE RESEARCH INTO THIS TSB TO SEE IF A RECALL IS WARANTED. DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE $600 TO REPLACE EACH SIDE. $1200 TOTAL. I FEEL THIS IS A PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE REMEDIED BY FORD. HELP...
