2QuikTA | I thought they were done with the airbag recalls? Our ‘07 Corolla got done a year ago, and that was after like a year of notices | ||

Not true at all. I traded in my 2011 Mustang with the airbag recall. @The Beast thanked me for letting have the car. Dealerships just take care of the recalls. But I could see if at one point a dealer didn't want a car due to an open recall that they knew could take months to get taken care of. Due to the lack of replacement parts being available. |

I traded my GT500 in with the open takata airbag recall. Someone told me dealers wouldn't take a car with an open recall. ![]() |

He finally bought a new car last year. That camry was held together with hopes, dreams, zip ties, and duct tape. Engine still purred at almost 300K miles, so at least there was that. |

![]() One of the things about the airbag recall is that it didn't affect just Ford. It affected Honda too and likely several other brands. One of the problems with not having diversity in the OEM channels. |

Yaj Yak | Honestly think some of the domestics have rust areas built in as planned designed obsolescence measure | ||

Wife HAD a 2016 Ford Edge and NEITHER front Airbags deployed when she wacked a deer hard enough to require 14k in damages. Short quick list of what was replaced. Windshield since hood smashed it. Radiator support. Both headlights Both Foglights Bumper cover Bumper support/ Crash bar. Engine cover since rad support cracked it. Front passenger side inner fender apron straightened and pulled out. Im sure a crap load of other items to refit all the bodywork. Vehicle got finished and returned to her then we put snow tires on it and it wouldnt drive straight down the highway. Bodyshop never sent it for an alignment after it was on the frame rack da fuck? ![]() Anyways it went back to the dealer for an alignment and since it was a lease we explained why we wanted an alignment again because it was in a deer crash and we put snow tires on it. I mentioned "Hey ummm how come the shop didnt replace the bags since I knew and asked them about it when it was getting rebuilt" They said they needed the vehicle to see if it was in the NTSB airbag recall. Sooo after its rebuilt and in for an alignment sure as shit it got 2 new airbags too. ![]() ![]() Buuuuuuttttt no worries now we turned that rolling pile of garbage back in about 3 weeks ago and my wifes got a 18 Malibu now. Meh Id rather her be in a bigger SUV but shes happy with the car. Happy wife happy life. So whatever keeps her happy. I wonder why we didnt know about the airbag recall until after the deer collision!?? Especially since it was a lease directly through FoMoCo. |

boostedguy05 | It all would depend on the rental car I'd be given. Base Cruz, I'd be pissed. Mid to high charger, keep the car as long as you need. | ||

Mike K | Jesus, say what you will about the cost of maintenance with German cars but you're *generally* not dealing with the car rusting apart. How anyone still buys anything GM after the W Bodies all had their strut towers rust away is perplexing to me. It's like, even if I wanted to maintain this car properly and keep it forever I really can't because it's going to disintegrate. | ||

radioguy6 | the Windstar recall is for the rear axle. It corrodes and eventually breaks, not something you'd want to experience at highway speeds. | ||

DEEZUZ | They all did that. Almost every ford had that fuse kit installed. I knew a f150 that burned a house to the ground cause of it | ||

Mike K | Was the Windstar recall the one where the brake fluid would leak into the cruise control sensor and burn the thing to the ground? | ||

lol I'm paranoid when I end up in an Edge or similar rental and wondering which recall I am going to come across or maybe even generate by beating the ever living shit out of it ![]() |
