5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information identifies three Air Bag recalls for the 2014 Ford Mustang. Certain driver or passenger frontal air bag inflators may experience propellant degradation after exposure to humidity, temperature, and temperature cycling. Another passenger inflator may explode in vehicles sold or registered in specified areas, while a driver inflator may rupture after moisture intrusion. In a crash requiring deployment, an inflator failure could send sharp metal fragments toward occupants, potentially causing serious injury or death. Waiting creates unnecessary risk when a manufacturer remedy may be available. Check your VIN promptly and let an authorized Ford dealer determine whether the recall has been completed.
