SUBJECT: Safety Recall 21S05
Certain 2005-2014 Mustang, 2005-2006 Ford GT, 2004-2011 Ranger, 2006-2012 Fusion and MKZ/Zephyr, 2006-2011 Milan, and 2007-2010 Edge and MKX Vehicles
Airbag Module Inspection and Replacement

AFFECTED VEHICLES

Certain vehicles listed below that were serviced with a suspect airbag module in, or prior to, March 2019 and after having the airbag module or inflator replaced in accordance with safety recall 15S21, 16S26, 17S01, 17S42, 18S01, 18S02, and/or 19S01. Fewer than 2,000 vehicles are expected to be affected.

Known affected vehicles are identified in OASIS and FSA VIN Lists.

REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL

In some of the affected vehicles, the driver and/or passenger airbag module may have been serviced with an airbag module that contained a recalled Takata airbag inflator. NHTSA and Takata have determined that the propellant in certain Takata airbag inflators can experience an alteration over time with exposure to certain climate conditions. A combination of time, high temperature fluctuations, and humidity contribute to the degradation of the propellant in the inflators. This degradation can cause the propellant to burn too quickly, creating high pressure inside the inflator, and in extreme cases causing the inflator to rupture in the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment. A ruptured inflator can send inflator parts toward vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death. Additional information regarding Takata recalls can be found at www.nhtsa.gov and www.safercar.gov.

SERVICE ACTION

For known affected vehicles, dealers are to inspect, and if necessary, replace the driver and/or passenger airbag inflators per the technical instructions.

Additionally, dealers are to review the part numbers in Attachment XIV: Recall Notice and identify any related part sales records. Contact any customers to whom a suspect airbag module was sold, provide them with a copy of the Recall Notice (Attachment XIV), and schedule a service date for an inspection and repairs as needed.

For any vehicle that is not identified in OASIS or FSA VIN Lists that is suspected to have an affected airbag module installed, please contact the Special Service Support Center (SSSC) via the Web Contact Site to request adding an affected VIN to this equipment recall prior to performing this service action. Use a VIN specific Non-Involved Vehicle Request.

This service must be performed on all vehicles at no charge to the vehicle owner.

Dealers must also return any remaining in-stock parts listed in Attachment XIV: Recall Notice.

OWNER NOTIFICATION AND MAILING SCHEDULE

Owner letters are expected to be mailed the week of March 8, 2021. Dealers should repair any affected vehicles that arrive at their dealerships, whether or not the customer has received a letter.

PLEASE NOTE:

Federal law requires dealers to complete this recall service before a new vehicle is delivered to the buyer or lessee. Violation of this requirement by a dealer could result in a civil penalty of up to $21,000 per vehicle. Correct all vehicles in your new vehicle inventory before delivery.

PARTS RETENTION AND RETURN

It is critical that all original airbag inflators removed from vehicles are returned to ensure that they are not allowed back into the market.

The return mechanism for airbag inflators under this safety recall varies based on the part number of the new airbag module or inflator. Parts will either have a $100 core charge or will be issued an FCS-700 tag.

Review Attachment XIII: Airbag Inflator Core Return in full for the appropriate part return instructions.

EXCESS STOCK RETURN

To support NHTSA-assigned completion mandates for the Takata airbag recalls, and the numerous Ford and Lincoln vehicles that require repairs under the Takata airbag recalls, excess stock returns will not be accepted for unused new recall remedy parts until 85% of all affected vehicles have been repaired. Dealers should utilize their FSA VIN Lists and DMS information to contact their affected customers and repair all vehicles that are brought to your dealership with an open Takata airbag recall (FSAs 15S21, 17S42, 18S02, and 19S01).

NOTE: Because returns are not currently being accepted, the normal deadlines for returning excess stock parts are suspended for Takata airbag recall parts. Once part returns are authorized (upon 85% repair completion) dealers will be notified and a new deadline for returning excess stock parts will be communicated.
