2000 Ford Explorer Air bags Problems

“In avoidance of hitting a cow, I rolled my Ford Explorer at least 3 times and none of the airbags deployed, front nor the side curtain airbags. My husband and myself were fortunate to come out with minor injuries. I have contacted Ford motor company and the have not yet offered to settle.”

“While driving the airbag light came on and stayed on. I took it to a Ford dealer the same day and was told it was the side airbag problem. The testing code was 1998. They charged me $903.45 to fix it on august 30, 2007. On august 23, 2008 the airbag light started flashing while I was driving. I called the Ford dealer and took it right in. Was told the part they replaced had gone bad and needed to be replaced again. Of course they had to order the part and that took three days. I was told that when the light is on the airbags don?t work. …”

“Air bag has a defect-needs air bag harness kit. The seat belt light comes on & stays on . This is how I found out that there is a problem. The Ford garage says t isn't covered under my extended warranty.”

“Dt: the cruise control switch shorted out. Sometimes it would work and then other times it would not work, and finally quit working altogether. Had it replaced by mechanic, had not contacted dealer or the manufacturer. Cruise control failed on june 1, 2005. The clockspring failed and caused the horn to activate intermittently.”

“Consumer left front tire blewout and shredded causing consumer to replace tire with spare. The tire blewout prior to the consumer receiving the recall notice. The air bag light and door ajar light illuminated. Left side wheel bearing shot and the right side was going bad. Rear brakes shot.”
