“I noticed from TSB#97-24-14, nov 1997 that the wire harness terminal repair kit was a recall problem for the 1998 ford ranger pick-up, my Mazda b3000 had a burned out pad switch and modular for the airbag. The 1998 Mazda b3000 and ford ranger are exactly the same truck, how come the 98 Mazda does not have a recall.”
