Government pressure has caused Ford Motor Company to recall nearly 150,000 F-150 trucks to fix air bags that c
ould deploy without warning. This number is a fraction of the vehicles the government says should be called back and repaired.
Used Ford F-150 trucks from the model years 2005-2006 are being issued the recall for what the Dearborn, Mich., company calls a “relatively low risk” of the air bag deploying inadvertently.
Ford has been urged by the government to recall 1.3 million F-150s from the 2004-2006 model years. They cite 98 injuries from air bags deploying accidentally. Ford’s F-Series pickup trucks are the best-selling vehicle in America and that’s one of the reasons the recall is being closely watched.
Tracy Myers, owner of Winston-Salem, NC used car dealership Frank Myers Auto Maxx, said: “With the spectacular vehicles that Ford has been making over the past few years, their massive recall on their F-150 trucks have stunned America. While I’m sure that lots of used Ford truck owners that live in Winston Salem are concerned with the recall, it is my understanding that Ford is working to get this problem under control. I want to reassure our customers that are Ford truck drivers that we are committed to seeing them through this unfortunate situation. As part of that commitment, we are providing free inspections on any Ford F150 that will end on March 27th.”
