This is in regards to Ford's 2006 F150 driver side air bag recall. Ford is refusing to give the dealerships the key to unlock the anti theft box that the air bag is in to do the safety recall. They instruct the service team to "use a dremel tool". this is not acceptable. Service team is "not comfortable" using a dremel to fix this. Any thing done like this to this vehicle will void any and all warranties!!!! safety recall has not been done on this vehicle.

The truck was traveling approximately 30 mph on a wet two-lane road. The truck slipped to the right off the roadway and clipped some dead trees, traveled approximately 60 feet over some boulders, and struck a cedar tree approximately six inches in diameter, coming to rest. The truck struck the tree midway on the front end, compressing the hood, with the front fender wrapped around the tree. The driver's side air bag did not deploy. I contacted Ford customer service, requesting information to be gathered on why the air bag failed to deploy. The customer service representative referred me to the insurance company. The insurance company representative called on my behalf and gave permission for Ford to non-destructively collect data at the salvage site, but Ford refused. I have photographs that I can provide if requested.

This problem first surfaced on the morning of 6/25/2010. I, along with a front seat passenger, were returning from running an errand when I noticed that the air bag light was flashing intermittently and that the 'passenger air bag disabled' indicator was lit. The later eventually returned to its normal state, off, but the air bag indicator remained on intermittently. I drove the vehicle again on 6/27/2010 with the following symptoms: The air bag light was intermittent and at the same time the an warning chime, at 1 second intervals, was heard. The 'passenger air bag disabled' indicator remained lit without a front seat passenger. The vehicle was again driven on 7/5/2010 with the same indications. As a result, I am hesitant to drive this vehicle until I do more research or speak to a certified service facility. I truly feel that I'd be at risk of an inadvertent air bag deployement while driving on the interstate, possibly causing injuries to myself, passengers, and other vehicles, and thus I'm requesting help and advice from your organization.

My son was killed in his 2006 Ford 150 pickup truck driving 45 miles an hour. His truck apparently left the road with no signs of brakes being applied, flipped several times. The airbags never deployed. His insurance company was threatening me to release the truck from storage which I did. I have since regained my senses enough to search the web and see that there were many recalls on the brake lines of this make truck.
