{"source":"tc","country":"ca","campaign":"2021077","date":"2021-02-19","owner_notified":null,"manufacturer":null,"component":"Airbag","summary":"Issue:\nThis recall is for certain vehicles that had the driver-front and/or passenger-front airbag inflator replaced after a collision or theft. An obsolete airbag may have been installed.\n\nOn certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the driver-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function.\n\nSafety Risk:\nIf the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury.\n\nCorrective Action:\nThe company will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a Ford dealer to inspect the driver and/or passenger airbag inflator or module and replace it, if necessary.\nNote: The Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"21S05","part_number":null,"units":8811,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Coussin gonflable","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Problème\nLe présent rappel vise certains véhicules dont le dispositif de gonflage du coussin gonflable avant du conducteur ou du passager a été remplacé après une collision ou un vol. En effet, un coussin gonflable désuet pourrait avoir été posé.\n\nSur certains véhicules, une longue exposition à une température et à un taux d'humidité absolue élevés, combinée à un cycle à haute température, pourrait dégrader le propulsif contenu dans le coussin gonflable avant du conducteur. Cela pourrait faire en sorte que le coussin gonflable se déploie avec plus de force qu'à la normale. Si le dispositif de gonflage du coussin gonflable se brisait, des fragments pourraient être propulsés en direction des occupants du véhicule ou endommager le coussin gonflable, ce qui l'empêcherait de bien fonctionner.\n\nRisques pour la sécurité\nEn cas de collision nécessitant le déploiement du coussin gonflable, le dispositif de gonflage pourrait se briser et créer un risque de blessures.\n\nMesures correctives\nL'entreprise doit aviser les propriétaires par la poste et leur demander d'amener leur véhicule chez un concessionnaire Ford pour faire inspecter le module ou le dispositif de gonflage du coussin gonflable du conducteur ou du passager et, au besoin, le faire remplacer.\nRemarque : Le climat du Canada dégrade lentement le propulsif. Le présent rappel est effectué à titre préventif afin de parer aux risques futurs. Il est prévu que tous les dispositifs de gonflage devront être remplacés avant que leur fonctionnement ne soit affecté."},"vehicles":[{"year":2011,"make":"FORD","model":"FUSION","vehicle_id":"2011_ford_fusion","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2012,"make":"FORD","model":"FUSION","vehicle_id":"2012_ford_fusion","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2005,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2005_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2006,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2006_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2007,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2007_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2008,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2008_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2009,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2009_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2010,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2010_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2011,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2011_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2012,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2012_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2013,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2013_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2014,"make":"FORD","model":"MUSTANG","vehicle_id":"2014_ford_mustang","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2004,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2004_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2005,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2005_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2006,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2006_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2007,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2007_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2008,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2008_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2009,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2009_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2011,"make":"FORD","model":"RANGER","vehicle_id":"2011_ford_ranger","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2008,"make":"LINCOLN","model":"MKZ","vehicle_id":"2008_lincoln_mkz","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null},{"year":2010,"make":"LINCOLN","model":"MKZ","vehicle_id":"2010_lincoln_mkz","match":"exact","built_from":null,"built_to":null}],"may_apply":true,"as_of":"2026-10-19","lookup":{"nhtsa":"https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls","tc":"https://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/7/VRDB-BDRV/search-recherche/menu.aspx?lang=eng","maker":null},"attribution":["Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada."],"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2021077"}
