  1. Come On Ford, Give Me A Break!!!!

    I recently received a Ford letter citing the air bag recall and that parts/remedy won't be available until late second quarter 2017, and I will be notified when to go to the dealer.

     

    There is an official air bag recall notice dated 2/27/2017 from the NHTSA with manufacturer recall number 17C02 and NHTSA recall number 17V123. "Recall incomplete, remedy not yet available".

     

    I have been following the adaptive steering issues on this forum. I received a single "error fault needs service" or something like this message to date on my 2016 Sport.

     

    There is also a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) 16-2085 12/2/2016 - 2015-2016 Edge 2016 MKX - Left Rear Sea backrest Does Not Fold Down When Using The Second Row Seat Control Switch - Built On Or Before 9/12/2016. Mine is a 6/2016 build and does exhibit this issue.

     

    FWIW, with respect to the airbag recall on 2016s and 2017s , I posted here last week that the recall service was performed for me back on 4/5 on a brand new 2017 sport that was within the affected build dates. Another user has posted to the thread since then as well who has had the recall service performed, so it seems parts are indeed coming available, and there is hope it isn't going to take until late Q2+ for all vehicles impacted by the recall.

    I talked to a couple of dealer folks too who didn't seem to have heard about the recall before I mentioned it. In any case, I just bought a '17 Ford Edge Sport yesterday that was subject to this recall. They received the part from Ford this morning and installed it, and I took delivery today. So there's hope that it won't take until the end of Q2 for new Edges within the affected build dates to be deliverable.
