The airbag located in the steering wheel has cracked the steering cover and is exposed. If this were to deploy prematurely or while driving it would pose serious safety risks. I have contacted Ford corporate in regard to this and their only suggestion was to take the vehicle to our dealer to have this replaced, at my own cost, which is missing the point of this needing to be reported and/or recalled as it appears to be a common problem with Ford trucks in online communities. It is a safety hazard and not a warrantied repair. As previously stated I have not taken to the dealership as I want it to be reported/recalled. There was no warning of this issue and it occured Saturday 6/10/23

Air bag light on the tachometer comes on while braking, usually with exterior air temp above 80 degrees. A/C compressor shuts down, turn signals go crazy when engaged, electric windows stop functioning and the brake pedal seems soft.. release the brake pedal; the air bag light goes out and everything functions as normal until the brake pedal is applied again. The fcim was replaced and reprogrammed but the issue remains. Comments please vehicle has 28000 miles +/-

  • 16,000 miles
A van lost control in heavy rain merging onto a very busy interstate and crossed 2 lanes of traffic before entering my 3rd lane. It was perpendicular to my vehicle as I struck it in the center of the driver's side at approximately 65 mph. My driver's steering wheel airbag did not deploy at all. There was extensive damage to both vehicles. I then spun around and slid sideways striking a guardrail in my driver's door which caused me to roll on the guardrail for approx 112 ft. Before coming to rest on my wheels. The side curtain airbags deployed but the steering wheel never did. The truck sustained extensive damage being a total loss.
